Why GOP leaders slur Bachmann, defend Obama
WND ^ | July 27, 2012 | Alan Keyes

Posted on 07/27/2012 9:20:40 AM PDT by EternalVigilance

During the GOP’s blatantly rigged 2012 primary season, Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., distinguished herself as a sincere spokeswoman for the conservative grass-roots constituency the nomination of Mitt Romney will emphatically betray. Just recently she joined with several of her colleagues courageously to demand an investigation into evidence the Obama faction has placed people associated with organizations that promote Islamic jihad and Shariah law into high-level positions in the U.S. government, from which they may be exerting inordinate influence on America’s foreign and national-security policy. Now key members of the elitist faction’s leadership in the Democratic and Republican parties have embarked upon a scurrilous campaign of personal destruction aimed at discrediting Bachmann’s demand. Their campaign makes use of ad hominem attacks that accuse her of anti-Muslim bigotry and falsely suggest that her apprehension has no factual basis. Yet the ad hominem assault appears to have been launched precisely because Rep. Bachmann capably established the solid basis for her concerns. In a letter to Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., she rebutted his scurrilously false characterizations of her actions with a meticulously footnoted response amply documenting the facts that justify her security concerns.

-----

Why has the GOP leadership unleashed this communist-style purge against Michele Bachmann? Why do they seek to thwart the demand seriously to investigate what could very well be a fatal threat to America’s security? Why do they cooperate in discouraging an inquiry into what appears to be a serious lapse of competence and/or loyalty in the Obama faction’s stewardship of America’s most vital national-security interests? Why indeed, unless the elitist-faction agenda calls for another sham election, in which the leaders of its GOP wing dutifully lend themselves to the betrayal of the party’s conservative base (and America’s survival in freedom), as they did in 2008.

Of course Juan McCain leading the progressive GOP lean-across-the-aisle traitors.

Exactly like we tried to tell Arizonans he would too.

But then he got those endorsements from the Leftist Republicans and folks suckered for him once again.

Now when those Leftist Republicans endorse others, I just laugh at them. Their endorsements mean nothing now.

"Properly developed, such issues would energize successful opposition to Obama, especially in the context of a trustworthy allegiance to America’s founding principle of God-endowed unalienable rights. The GOP’s elitist-faction clique adamantly opposes anyone seriously committed to pursuing these issues because they are themselves so deeply implicated in the ongoing deconstruction of America’s liberty. The factional clique maintains the false pretense of speaking to and for conservative voters in order to prevent these voters from uniting against the bipartisan political sham being orchestrated to decompose the constitutional republic. The GOP’s elitist faction leaders have to keep them from realizing and acting on their true strength. Such a reaction would disrupt the elitist faction’s game, for it would reveal its still extant vulnerability. In an authentic three-way political contest, the number of those who prefer American liberty to anti-American socialism is more than sufficient to defeat, in general election, both wings of the elite faction’s partisan sham."

Amazing how the same GOP leaders who prefer to defend 0bama over Michele Bachmann are the same people who really love themselves some Mutt Romney.

What a coinky-dink.

That in and of itself doesn’t even begin to address the deep corruption of the formerly grand old party.

I dislike Romney on a number of levels, but he is campaigning against Obama with some effect, and that’s something that the old crusty McCain couldn’t muster the courage to do.

Romney also campaigns by touching on at least some fairly sound principles. Nevermind for the moment that we don’t expect him to follow through with them. At least he is calling Obama on his treachery. McCain, that was too much to ask.

There are some principles where I do see Romney as worse than McCain, but overall, I think McCain is far worse than Romney.

McCain has been a well known traitor to our cause for thirty years now. He was corrupt. He had very little values when it came to Conservatism. He short circuits our efforts constantly.

I was going to post a response, but you phrased it much more eloquently than I could have.
Thanks.

She wants a Holy War and the GOP doesn’t. Her leadership was rejected in the primaries and regard her as a message distraction.

Therein lies the hope to save America, Tom.

Day by day, more and more people are coming to believe and understand that elitists like Obama and Romney actually hate this country's moral traditions and fervently detest the Declaration's admonition that a decent society must protect and secure our God-given rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
