VOTERS TO G.O.P.: WE’RE JUST NOT THAT INTO IMMIGRANTS
http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2015-07-29.html
I think she spells it out cleanly.
Conservative VOTERS are not gonna vote for anyone supporting or pandering to illegal immigration.
The loss of (or outright non-defense of) state’s rights is at the heart of the problem.
State sovereignty is totally intact, just like our freedoms. It’s a question of the American people once again taking ownership of what is theirs.
If you had a million dollars in the bank but forgot about it or forgot how to access it, it is still yours. You just need to reclaim it and take it. Same with states’ rights and individual freedom. The feds are squatters and need to be kicked out of their constitutionally unauthorized adverse possession.
It is trump who said it is the “law of the land” following the Supreme Court decision. It is Sen. Cruz who said it is a state matter, and that states should resist.
So why are you for the wimp who is laying down on this?
Then you are very naive. The Constitution Party is a party based on "Reconstructionism" (a Protestant school associated with Rousas J. Rushdoony and Gary North). It is militantly opposed to traditional dispensational pre-millenialist Fundamentalism and hostile to Israel as well (the party rejected Alan Keyes as a presidential candidate a few years ago because he was pro-Israel). The entire Reconstructionist project is anti-Israel, as is Chuck Baldwin, their current leader. For all practical purposes, they regard the United States as the special chosen country and worship an American national "gxd." And I don't care what Howard Phillips' ancestry was; he was a convert to Reconstructionism.
And by the way, the John Birch Society very much exists today (I was once a member) and they are more anti-Israel than ever.
Let's say there was an element in the Constitution Party that did harbor such views--would it invalidate their platform?
Yes it would. It would make them an evil organization in opposition to G-d's plans for the world. They are "palaeoconservatives," and "palaeoconservatives" are essentially henotheists who believe every people and every country has its own valid national "truth" as opposed to the universal Truth of the objective G-d of Israel. Furthermore, I am convinced supporting such an evil philosophy opens one up to Divine punishment. There is no "conservatism" without the One True G-d. G-d did not write the United States Constitution, but He did indeed write the Holy Torah.
The danger here is that conservatives keep breaking into factions and marginalizing themselves with purity tests that are not necessary.
This is not a "purity test!" "Chrstian Reconstructionists" are anti-Semitic lunatics, many of whom regard Israel as the "vatican" of the "New World Order." This is not a minor point. This makes them Jew-haters of the first water.
It's quite necessary to recognize who is on the right side of the fence (which is why I reject most Republicans as unacceptable "republicats" for example), but beyond that Iâd say we need to agree to disagree on non-foundational issues.
Anti-Semites and opponents of the regathering of Jews in 'Eretz Yisra'el are not on my side of the fence,and if they're on your side of the fence, then I want nothing to do with you. This is not an issue on which I am willing to "agree to disagree" with anyone. Sorry.
Why don't you do a little online research on Reconstructionism, Rushdoony, North, G. Edward Griffin, etc. and the "Constitution Party?"
Wideawake, can you explain it to this guy?
