Thanks, Jim, and thanks for the forum. When we have enough of a majority, we can turn our attention to removing people like Olympia Snowe and Arlin Spector, who wield way too much power because of their needed votes.
Until then, we have to live with them, frustrating as it is.

Beautifully written, Jim. And you are so right. (No pun intended.) This could almost serve as FreeRepublic's Constitution.
Thanks for the forum and on with restoring the Republic!

Great post, Jim. You will be attacked, no doubt, but the truth of your post is crystal-clear. Thanks for being brave and right.

Thank you for providing this forum. I don't think that you will ever appreciate just how big a difference you have made. Keep up the good work.
We also need to beat the liberals idea of 'hate radio' that they are pushing. They are seeking to make the expressing of ideas illegal by saying that it spreads hate.
We also need to beat back the liberal control of the child custody/child support arena. As long as they are free to pander to ensuring that women get sole custody and huge sums of money, the democracy is in danger because women are a majority of the voters. It sure would be nice to be able to to get fired from ones job without it also mean a life long jail sentence.
To: Jim Robinson
I'm almost in complete agreement. I'd like to simplify our goals:
- Vote for good Republicans. By good, I mean any who won't stop the restoration with corruption.
- Abolish gun control and banish its advocates from all office.
- Work on restoring the rest of the Constitution.
The rest will follow. I can't agree with 100% of your agenda, but I agree with all of its spirit. We'll have the freedom to debate it once these other critical things are in place! Debate will flourish, and so will the Republic!

Hear, hear!
Who knows? We may even get to the point we can overturn Roe vs Wade
I believe this will happen no later than 2050 and, hopefully, long before that. The problem with Roe v Wade is that it's technology driven. The point of viability even now is much different that it was when Roe was written, and it's moving closer and closer to fertilization every year. When fertilization and viability become the same event in the not too distant future, it'll be awfully hard for liberals to maintain their killing machine.

You identify the problem pretty well, but the solution is another matter. It turns out that the Repubs also increase the size, cost, and power of the government. They make some well intended moves in the other direction, such as tax cuts, but the overall trend each year is bigger, bigger, bigger.
Just as you say, they want to get elected and they see the need to spend and spend to do so. Look at GWB's farm bill, or the steel quotas....obviously measures for electoral interests. We just cannot expect the Repubs to get us where we both want under the present circumstances.
New Hampshire is a good example. In the early 1990's, we were 'the most Republican state' with big majorities in both houses, the governor, the entire Senate and House delegation, and all five Governor's Council members. What happened? Taxes went up, spending went up, government went up.
I don't propose voting for the third parties any longer. You are correct, they cannot and likely will never win. I'll vote for conservative Republicans, and maybe even some not so conservative, but the solution lies elsewhere....in somehow changing the culture and philosophy of the thinkers and leaders in the country. Until that time, all we can reasonably hope for is to slow the growth of the government.
For too many, most, on both side of the isle, it's about power and percs.

To: Jim Robinson
My conclusion is we will never, ever regain constitutional government until we completely demolish the liberal stranglehold on the bureaucracy, the education institutions, the media and especially, the judiciary.
Great writing and solid logic. Thanks for writing it, I agree %1000 with your conclusion.
