Tea Party Nation [pro-life, pro-military, anti-homo agenda] Letter to the GOP!

received via email | November 22, 2010 | Signed by over 180 Tea Party Groups, Leaders and Activists

[Jim Robinson]

Today, Tea Party Nation, along with over 180 other Tea Party Groups, Leaders and Activists released a letter to the Republican leadership on Capitol Hill.

Last week, GOProud, a non-Tea Party group, sent a letter to Senator McConnell and Speaker to be Boehner, claiming to speak for the Tea Party movement. It was signed by 16 people. We decided to send a letter that speaks for the mainstream of the Tea Party movement. This letter is going Senator McConnell and Congressman Boehner today. It has been signed by over 180 Tea Party Groups, Leaders and Activists.

Here is the letter:

Dear Senator McConnell and Congressman Boehner,

Last Monday, a small group of non-Tea Party, non-conservatives, released a letter, trying to claim leadership of the Tea Party movement and purporting to tell you what the Tea Party movement wants.

We, the undersigned, are leaders of mainstream Tea Party groups. We are the people that helped get conservatives elected on November 2. While we do not speak for this movement as a whole, we are a large cross section of this movement and we want to tell you what this movement wants.

First, we want Obamacare defunded. There is no compromise on this issue and it is not negotiable. We do not want Obamacare lite. We do not want it “tinkered” with. We want it repealed. We realize the chance of Obamacare being repealed before 2013 are slim, but it can be defunded. That is the next best thing.

Second, we want serious reductions in spending. A spending cut is not simply a reduction in the amount of the increase. It is a reduction in spending. America cannot afford Washington’s spending sprees any more.

The question is where to start. Here is the answer. Let’s start by eliminating waste, fraud and abuse from the budget. Billions of dollars are wasted through programs that are unneeded, unnecessary and exist only to benefit special interests. Let’s go through the budget line by line and eliminate these programs.

We in the Tea Party are ready to help on this one. We know you have staffs. We have thousands of volunteers who are prepared to rip the budget apart and help you. All you have to do is ask us.

The left will whine about every spending cut, coming up with some story about how horrible it will be. Americans are very charitable but cannot stand the thought of their tax dollars being wasted. This is the proverbial low hanging fruit.

Third, we must dismantle the liberal-political complex. Liberal groups such as Acorn and Planned Parenthood receive millions of dollars in federal monies every year. This must stop. Most of the members of this movement would probably describe themselves as pro-life. Regardless, abortion is a multibillion-dollar business. Why is the government paying Planned Parenthood anything, much less almost $1 billion from 2002-2009?

Fourth, if the debt ceiling is to be raised, this is the last time. Uncle Sam’s credit card must be cut up. America cannot afford Obama/Pelosi/Reid’s spending spree. We urge you to raise the debt ceiling only if a spending reduction plan is in place prior to that time. We do not want to see the ceiling raised in exchange for a promise to cut spending later. We Americans now regard those promises as credible as those emails we get telling us we have won the lottery.

Fifth, taxes must be reduced. The Bush tax cuts must be extended for everyone, made permanent and the burden the government places on small businesses must be drastically reduced so that small businesses can grow and start hiring unemployed Americans.

Sixth, there can be no amnesty. America has always welcomed immigrants. Legal immigrants. We want you to oppose the DREAM act and any other effort for amnesty. In 1986, President Reagan agreed to amnesty, in exchange for the promise the border would be secured. We got amnesty then and twenty-five years later, the border is still not secured. This time, we have to insist the border be secured and illegal aliens leave and then reapply like everyone else. We need to change our immigration laws and require that before specialized workers are brought in, there must be conclusive proof that no American is available to do that job. We also need to change our immigration policy so that the top criteria for someone immigrating to America is what they can do for America. The diversity immigration lottery must be eliminated.

Seventh, we want you to fight the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. The policy has worked well for the last fifteen years. There is no reason to change. While there are many ways to debate an issue, sometimes you can judge the validity of a proposal by who supports it. Various radical leftist groups such as Code Pink support the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. These groups have one goal. They want to weaken the United States Military. If these groups think this is a good idea, that is a pretty good indication, it is not.

We, the members of the mainstream Tea Party movement have a lot of expectations for you in this Congress. We realize the limitations you face. But we also realize the tools you have at your disposal. America is a conservative country. We expect conservative leadership from our country. The Republican Party had its head handed to it in 2006 and 2008 because it departed from its conservative base. Now is your chance to return to your roots and govern, as we the people want you to.

We are here with you, we are here supporting you and we have our eyes on you. Do not disappoint us.

Sincerely,

November, 2010

Yeah, well, if the homo and abortionist agendas are welcome into the tea party them I’m out of it. You’re going to lose half your otherwise loyal members to appease a tiny liberal minority.

[Randy Larsen]

Who are these leaders in the email Jim?

The TEA PARTY has NO leaders!

[Jim Robinson]

Well, whoever they are, they’re speaking the truth.

[Jim Robinson]

And they’re speaking out against this horse hockey:

[Randy Larsen]

That they do but THE Tea Party has been very successfull so far by holding politicians accountable for their fiscal stances.

I’m worried that many fake groups want to jump on that success for their own agendas and will do great harm to the original movement.

We are still trying to create an honest yet tough following.

Lets not wait for them to ask. We need a copy of proposed budget and lets take this into our own hands!!!!

[Little Pharma]

Fiscal conservatism, if employed, will naturally result in social conservatism. We can’t expect to use the gov’t to dictate sexual behavior or even reproductive decisions, but if the gov’t is no longer a tool for liberals to bludgeon us with with decadence and death then their leverage disipates. Conservatism is the natural state, liberalism keeps decadence alive with our tax dollars. If we shrink gov’t, abhorent behavior no longer has a source of support in the public arena.

[ForGod'sSake]

Points well made!

It isn't about cutting Medicare and SS, it's about streamlining it by cutting out the fraud...

Maybe it's just my cynical nature but, does anyone else suspect that many of these programs were ALLOWED to be fradulentally gamed? It makes the participants, patricularly those gaming the system look at the federales/taxpayers as a bunch of dupes just begging to be had. Those with Entitlement Mentality Syndrome were encouraged to participate in the system to demonstrate just how wonderful Big Brother can be. Anybody that wants to can play; there's plenty to go around; the world is an oyster and they're the shuckers. We are of course, the suckers...

[Jim Robinson]

Oh, you mean like what GOP Proud is trying to do?

[Randy Larsen]

Sorry Jim...

I had to read both threads twice to figure out the difference between the two.

You are correct, GOP proud is the one I don’t want any part of!

[LomanBill]

>>“entitlement” programs

 

Those are already dead.  They're zombies in the path of the fiscal tsunami manufactured by the libertardian "Fiscal Conservatives" - who facilitated the demoralization of this country and made it ok to lie about your income on a mortgage application "because everybody does it".

 

Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain....  when the wave breaks here, the entitlement gravy train ride will be over; and what happens after that will depend upon the ideology of those in the control room.

 

So - Who would you rather have rebooting the system at that point -

 

A:  The "Fiscally Conservative" miscreants whose moral relativism caused the systemic corruption of the global economic infrastructure in the first place:

 

(GO)Proud Pirates of the American Dream....

- OR -

 

B: Folks with conservation of America's First Principles, and the REFORMATION of this Nation toward those principles, in mind:

 

 

?

If we shrink gov’t, abhorent behavior no longer has a source of support in the public arena.

Conservative voters, continuing and increasing their engagement in the process is the only thing will keep the Dhimmtards from mining enough libtard votes to beat us. And don't forget the part a still formidable dinomedia has played in all of this. Even so, the country is demonstrably conservative so how is it the Dhimmtards even get close? My suspicion is that fully a fourth of libtard votes are fraudulent. Conservatives will have to continue to turn out in unprecendented numbers to offset the criminal enterprise that is the Dhimmtard party and the dinomedia. Nothing else matters.

[LomanBill]

[Fiscal conservatism, if employed, will naturally result in social conservatism.]

 

Well then, if that's the "natural" course of things - then surely you have an historical example that demonstrates the validity of your assertion?

 

I, OTOH, observe that Romans 1:25+ contradicts you; and that Paul seems to have observed that ungodly moral decay precipitates the "giving over" of society into anarchy and self-destruction, "Fiscal" and otherwise.

 

Was Paul lying?  If so, what's his motivation?

[ForGod'sSake]

Well, I choose “B”. Even so, I don’t follow how fiscal conservatives were somehow responsible for the subprime mess. Can you clarify?

[Paradox]

Fiscal conservatism, if employed, will naturally result in social conservatism.

I agree completely. Look what the "Great Society" has done to the black, urban, family.

Oh, and welcome to FreeRepublic!

[Rapscallion]

It should be a platform for politicians. I will support it fully.

[LomanBill]

[Even so, I don?t follow how fiscal conservatives were somehow responsible for the subprime mess. Can you clarify?]

Fiscal Conservatives - who demonstrated they were NEITHER?

 

(GO)Proud Pirates of the American Dream....

 

 

 

 

How does a society get to the demoralized state where lying about one's income is commonplace;  where moral hazard is simply.... DISREGARDED?

 

By design, evidently:

"What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.

 

It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.

 

The first stage being "demoralization"...."

Fiscally Conservative Economic Stability (and American Capitalism) CAN NOT exist in a moral vacuum - as the Soviets knew full well.

Oh?  So not paying for a product you consume is "Fiscally Conservative" in the Paradox universe, is it?

 

That sounds more like...

Noun

freeloader (plural freeloaders)

1. One who does not contribute or pay appropriately; one who gets a free ride, etc. without paying a fair share.

 

...something a liberaltardian would believe.  Not CONSERVATIVE at all, fiscally or otherwise.

 

 

Maybe you can help Little Pharma in his assignment:

[Fiscal conservatism, if employed, will naturally result in social conservatism.]

 

Well then, if that's the "natural" course of things - then surely you have an historical example that demonstrates the validity of your assertion?

 

???

[ForGod'sSake]

I’m sorry LomanBill. Maybe if you spell it out for me. I’m a little slow sometimes. What am I to infer from one person’s contribution to Pubbies’ campaign fund from six or seven years ago?

[LomanBill]

>>one person’s contribution

Well, that "one person", Dawn Arnall, is/was the Chairman of subprime leader Ameriquest Mortgage - and wife of Roland Arnall.

 

Roland Arnall - GODFATHER of SUBPRIME...

 

 

...and, unfortunately for W, W's ambassador to the Netherlands.

 

Roland and Dawn Arnall together being the "Husband and wife team" who...

SO, where were all these so-called "Fiscal Conservatives" hiding back then... before the Log Cabin RINOs started using "Fiscal Conservative" as a buzzword to differentiate themselves from, well, REAL Conservatives - i.e. the actually conservative folks who know that Fiscally Conservative, Economically Stable, AMERICAN CAPITALISM can not exist in an amoral cesspool?

 

Where were those "Fiscal Conservatives"?  They were right there in that list among the RATs and RINOs who were selling America down the systemically corrupted moral/fiscal toilet by fraudulently inflating the housing bubble - that's where.
