Thanks LLS. I wasn’t aware of that.
I think Orin Hatch is probably a very nice guy. His politics are confused and he hurts us terribly at times when we need to be with one voice on an issue.
Orin, McCain, Graham, Snow... these types of people do harm to us, because they often times lend credence to the Leftist ideology there-by destroying our chance to get public consensus behind our plans.
I agree with you. He can be great on some issues, and wrong on others. Hell, I probably am too. I really try not to be.
I don’t want to muddle things up like the people I mentioned above do.
Nobody is more upset than me if I later realize I have been wrong. I consider myself to have helped the other side, when I get it wrong. That is the very last thing I want to do.
None of us wants to help the enemy... “US” being real Conservatives. You are doing fine! Here is some food for thought.
Ronald Reagan 1975 CPAC Speech
(snip)
“Americans are hungry to feel once again a sense of mission and greatness.
I don ‘t know about you, but I am impatient with those Republicans who after the last election rushed into print saying, “We must broaden the base of our party”—when what they meant was to fuzz up and blur even more the differences between ourselves and our opponents.”
“A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers.
“I do not believe I have proposed anything that is contrary to what has been considered Republican principle. It is at the same time the very basis of conservatism. It is time to reassert that principle and raise it to full view. And if there are those who cannot subscribe to these principles, then let them go their way.”
Use these words as your guide... this is to progressives in both parties... as garlic is to a Vampire. You will know them by their fruits.
GOD bless,
LLS
