"Republican Party Falling Apart"
The Post Chronicle ^ | May 22, 2007 | By Basil Harrington

Posted on 05/22/2007 9:29:44 AM PDT by SittinYonder

"The Republican Party is falling apart," said one insider to me recently. "The GOP has become the party of neoliberal corporate globalism, not the party of conservatism," said another. Perhaps election 2008 will be the last hurrah. Other than Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul and Duncan Hunter, the GOP presidential candidates are a joke. The rest are all neoliberal, interventionist globalists.

Look how we've derailed..."

Iraq is a huge mistake, a neocon experiment in utopianism, and we are paying the price. Bush's foreign policy is not conservative. It is Wilsonian nation building. The transformation of the Middle East to liberal democracy is Jacobin, not conservative. And it is because of the neocon war machine in the Middle East that we are hated.

If we really want to end terrorism in the U.S., then we should completely disengage from the Middle East. We should (1) completely withdraw from the Middle East, (2) end foreign aid to all Middle Eastern countries, (3) deport all Muslims from the West, and (4) end all immigration from the third world.

Many fail to realize it, but terrorism is more an immigration issue than Middle Eastern issue. If Seung-Hui Ch? had not been allowed to immigrate hither, the Virginia Tech massacre would not have happened. Three of the terrorists recently nabbed in New Jersey (plotting to attack Ft. Dix) were illegal immigrants who entered the U.S. from Mexico. And almost all previous terrorists, including those on Sept. 11, were either legal or illegal third-world immigrants.

As Jean Raspail said in Camp of the Saints, "the greatest piece of conservative fiction ever written," there is a third-world invasion of the West taking place. We are under attack. And we can either make a stand against the third-world hordes, or we can watch the West crumble.

We must address the problem now. We need deportations, attrition, employer sanctions, and all immigration (legal and illegal) to end from the third world.

But many seem not to care. Many politicians and corporations are supporting this invasion. Why? Either for cheap votes or to drive down American wages.

Failure to address this invasion not only is a dereliction of duty, but it is a form of treason. And many of the presidential candidates are guilty of treason? Rudolph Giuliani, John McCain, Sam Brownback, Tommy Thompson, Mike Huckabee - and let's not forget Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John Edwards. Traitors, ever last one of them.

And then there's free trade, which is destroying our economy and undermining our sovereignty. But the neocons / neoliberals have their heads in the sand, wanting to take free trade to its logical conclusion in some perverse suicide pact.

The Democratic Party, which in the 19th century was the conservative party while the GOP was the left-wing party, betrayed the U.S. decades ago. And now the GOP is going the same globalist route? neoliberal wars, mass immigration to drive down American wages, and suicidal free trade pacts.

Do not stand for this nonsense!

If Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul or Duncan Hunter does not get the GOP nomination, then vote third party. Refuse to support the neocon / neoliberal globalist machine. If the GOP continues down this path, it is doomed anyway and, hopefully, out of the ashes a true conservative party will arise, perhaps the Constitution Party or the America First Party.

Or perhaps a new party will form, hopefully one modeling itself after the British National Party, Front National, or Vlaams Belang - all conservative parties in Europe, and conservative in the true sense of the word: the conservation of Western man. Not the phony neocon nonsense we have in the U.S.

When Pat Buchanan (and others!) said it's a sin to vote for Clinton, that kind of nonsense rhetoric turned off voters, made Republicans look like idiots, and, simply, hurt more than helped. Posturing as if civilization itself! hinges on your vote is equally dumb.

What do you think this is all about? If the purpose of our elections is not to advance our Republic and thereby Western Civilization, then why bother? What propels you to come to a political forum to discuss politics if you're uninterested in advancing Western Civilization?

Ah, but anyone familiar with your posting history knows your purpose in being here is to post pictures of chicks.

Amen to that. It is up us the people to make the choice. Not the MSM or the RNC. I with you.

Anyone bashing Ron Paul isn’t a conservative.

Ron Paul isn't a conservative. He's a libertarian who runs as a Republican so he can get elected in Texas.

HAS he?? How disappointing. I hope he doesn’t run. Don’t ANY of these guys have the courage of their convictions?

Newt's big debate with Kerry on Gorebull warming was awful for anyone who thinks it might be a hoax, a scam or caused by the sun.

I thought he was a rock solid conservative? That’s the impression I got from posts here.

I've looked at his background and record, and I think his conservative credentials need serious defending. My mind's not made up on Fred one way or another, and if he's the nominee ... as it stands right now ... I'll support him.

Anyone pushing Ron Paul isn’t a Republican.

Where do you get that from? Because he believes in the Constitution?

He is my representative in Congress and he is very conservative. He is one of the few left that thinks the Constitution should be strictly followed. That is the very definition of an American Conservative.

>Fred to the rescue!<

Yes, oh naive one. Fred, the lobbyist for big companies pre-Senate days. Fred, who said that Globalism is good for us. Fred with the big, fat cigar.

I had to check two or three times as I was sure this article was written by Pat Buchanan.

Don’t discount Hunter just because he doesn’t have face recognition yet

I like Hunter, but his protectionism stances and advocation of high tariffs give him the lowest rating in the pro-growth groups like Club for Growth and the ACU. I am a capitalist, and I think we should be looking for ways to maximize mutually beneficial, voluntary transactions ... not limit them just because goods are coming from Japan.

There are ways to improve the competitive market for American manufacturers without punishing foreign manufacturers.

BTW ... those same pro-growth groups give Tancredo the highest scores for growth, and he comes second only to Paul in reducing pork.

So you can post insults to me all day long, but you don’t seem able to argue your position. What is your position?

Hunter is dead on correct here, Steve Forbes was the best on this issue. Trade is fine, in fact better then fine, but global institutions like the WTO are not the way to go bilateral agreements that work for both nations interest are. Right now the rest of the world is eating our lunch on trade, we now are a net importer of food! How about trade policies that are in the long terms interest of the nation and it's citizens for a change instead of short term corporate greed that can only result in impoverishing us all.

Not only am I thinking for myself, I’m speaking from proven historical fact.

That’s silly.

Unless you are suggesting that vote fraud is taking place, a vote for candidate “c” will NOT be counted toward either candidate “a” or “b”
