The GOP has divided like some amoeba on a glass slide under a microscope.
There are the Globalists that continue to warn the various GOP candidates and politicians that they will damage their political careers if they take the side of those wanting to seal the border and strictly enforce existing immigration laws. They blame the discontent by GOP voters on the Iraq War, run-away federal spending and scandalous behavior by elected GOP politicians. They delight in pointing to the downfall of those who have taken strong enforcement first stances. J.D. Hayworth lost his congressional seat in Arizona after taking a tough stance on the border. George Allen of Virginia lost his senate seat, some say for the same reason. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania. And in the current presidential race the campaigns of both hard line border enforcement candidates, Hunter and Tancredo appear to be sinking like a rock. Their fundraising efforts a total joke. Or so these geopolitical elitists would want us to believe.
And then theres our side of the divided amoeba. We dont really have advisers and strategists telling us what our next move should be. We live every day with the reality of illegal immigration and its negative, downward pull on our social structure. Weve observed the illegals banding together, marching in the streets of America. Streets that we as taxpayers have paid to build. We saw them waving Mexican flags and burning American flags. Their monumental ingratitude. Weve watched our politicians allow these illegal hordes to invade our nation and enjoy rights and privileges that actually accede our own. And when we dared to raise complaints regarding this dangerous and worsening situation these same politicians, that we elected, presented us with disrespect, insults and intimidation. Yet we fight on to maintain and protect our nations sovereignty.
Sadly, we are losing. The globalists controlling our party seem to be gaining the upper hand. Both Hunter and Tancredo are nearly out of cash ( link ). The other candidates , good men all, will simply not remain on our side in the long term, in my view. They are making all the correct noises now because they want our votes. But when the battle gets intense theyll fall back on theyre long proven expertise the art of compromise.
So the question begs to be answered why? Why have the campaigns of Hunter and Tancredo faltered? Certainly its not lack of support. Duncan Hunter recently left the entire GOP pack in the dust in the Texas Straw Poll. No one was even close. Hes also won other straw polls. Tancredo did well in the recent Iowa straw. Why are they so upside down in the fundraising department? Would it be fair to say that their followers are a bunch of dunces who go about waving their flags and emotions in the air? Who are so stupid that they cant figure out that it takes money to run a campaign? God forbid as I count myself among them. Well the jury is not yet in on that verdict yet. But honestly, something simply doesnt add up. About 60% of Americans support tougher enforcement of immigration laws. Hunter and Tancredo both have large followings. So where are the donors?
Where the heck are these so called Border Watch groups, I ask? Groups like the Minutemen Project? And U.S. Border Watch? Jim Gilchrists Wake Up America? And U.S. Border Control? And these are just a few. There are many more orgs of this nature. But when you visit these sites you see no open support for Hunter or Tancredo. No ads, banners or anything. You cant tell me that there isnt a way to, legally, get the word out to their members regarding the fundraising woes of these 2 candidates. My gosh the entire Borders/Illegals issue is at stake! Certainly the decision makers within these organizations must have enough snap to know that without enlightened politicians and originalist judges on the bench our cause of U.S. sovereignty is doomed! Many of the orgs have become bogged down in the details and have lost sight of the mission. I ask all who read this to begin some kind of email campaign or other correspondence to these orgs immediately. Especially those who might be members of such groups. Put pressure on them to more aggressively work for our 2 valiant candidates Hunter and/or Tancredo. Withhold your donations to these groups until they regain the correct priorities. Inform them, if they dont know, of the dire fundraising situation that our 2 candidates face and encourage them to formulate an action plan to help keep these campaigns effective financially. These candidates can not be effective without TV/Radio campaigns and that takes money.
And one might ask, where is corporate America? Why no help for the Hunter and Tancredo campaigns from large U.S. companies? One of the main thrusts of the Hunter campaign is to bring manufacturing back to the U.S. Youd think large companies would be all over that and the donations would be pouring in. Not so. You see the corporate fat cats see the blood in the water. Republican blood. So the corporate cowards are shifting over to the dems thinking that the GOP will be devoured by the sharks. The CEOs like the idea of Hillary Care. A huge chunk of their annual budget goes toward medical insurance benefits for their employees. They like the idea of that massive expenditure instead being diverted into their quarterly bonus. Additionally, they love the continued flow of cheap labor coming from across the border. This is why both Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo are persona non grata in the eyes of the corporate fat cats. And the dems are wallowing in money.
So while the fundraising efforts of our valiant candidates Hunter and Tancredo continue to sink into the quagmire, the globalists that have hijacked our GOP are standing around in the shadows having a good laugh at our expense. Snickering at us. Also sinking into the quagmire is our cause of sealing the borders and insisting that our elected officials see to it that immigration laws are strictly enforced. Why should they listen to us? We cant even keep our own candidates in a liquid financial state. So to all of you who still believe that the notion of national sovereign borders is not an antiquated, obsolete concept, I ask you, do you enjoy the sting of defeat? How do you like being laughed at, rebuked and put back into your place by the elitists?
I also put forth the question is it too late to reverse this negative trend? Is there still time? I believe there is time but none to waste. I welcome your comments. And who is your least-favorite GOP open borders globalist? Leave a link. DD
Don’t let it upset you. They guy can’t argue positions or principals so he has to smear that is the tatic of those who have nothing.

I was banned from both the Minuteman and SOS forum for continually pointing out that:
9/10ths of Republicans in the House and 2/3rds of the Republicans in the Senate vote against Amnesty
while 9/10ths of Democrats in the House and 4/5ths of Democrats in the Senate vote for Amnesty.
And looky here, more evidence of the historical partisan split: http://grades.betterimmigration.com/view_all.php3?Flag=GRADE
I kept asking them why they vote for Democrats when you got a 90% probability of voting for an Amnesty monkey? I kept asking over and over and over again, then I saw the fruity posts from UFO conspiracy theorists and the black helicopter guys. Its probably rife with 9-11 truthers by now.
WHATS WITH YOU 1-ISSUE WONDERS! YOU GOT ONE ISSUE TO WORRY ABOUT AND YOUR NOT BASHING THE DEMOCRATS?!
Then I bashed them for watching too much X-files, then BLAMMO! banno.
HUNTER 08! :)
“Why have the campaigns of Hunter and Tancredo faltered?”
Because they never should have run in the first place until they had better name recognition. Half the GOP wanna bees could still shop alone at any Walmart or shopping mall and not be recognized. It is too early in their careers to run for a big office - They need to do more to get more attention over the next 4 years then come back for another look. This is the problem - Too many bottomfeeders are sapping the energy of the front runners. If this gaggle of candidates continue to muddy the waters, we will not have a GOP consensus and Hillary will win hands down. (And pleeeeease don’t tell me Paul has all the answers. - He is the lowest of the bottomfeeders and he is not even a Republican - He is a libertarian.)
No sh*t Sherlock, I know there is no law prohibiting the POS from making contributions.
But I find it funny that paul refuses to return the money when any other candidate would have returned it within a week.
So much for that “morals and integrity” BS the ron paullution spewing sheeple of his spam message boards with.
All your little village idiot has to do is live up to the standards that he claims to “live by” and return the donation.
Did don black give a contribution to President Bush?
I’ll start taking you obsessed ron paullution spewing sheeple seriously just as soon as your so called “man of principle” starts living up to those principles he claims he has.
Does EEExtemist have a website? Blog? If not he should. DD
I dunno, and I honestly don’t give a sh*t if he does or not.
He and his fellow ron paullution spewing ilk are working to destroy any chance of a Republican winning in 2008.
LOL, oh my. So all politicians should only take funds from who 2CavTrooper deems 'acceptable'?
Funny thing, if the Giuliani Channel did even a cursory glance at St. Rudy's campaign, or Fred's (can I get a round of applause here?) campaign I'm sure we'd find more than one $500 donation from a nut. But it's not in the best interest of Fixed News to do that is it? Should Dr. Paul then check all donors' backgrounds, or just allow his detractors to tell him which contributions he can take and which he can't? Why don't we just have a law that says 'undesirables' can't donate to any campaign? Or vote even? If someone votes for Dr. Paul is he complicit in that vote even if every thing Dr. Paul stands for is the antithesis of these nuts? Detractors are indeed grasping at straws. But don't believe me. Read what the Editor of the National Review said about it today
Meanwhile Thousands show up in Nevada to support Dr. Paul. Where are the 'thousands' for Fred's campaign? Hey Fred is still running isn't he? LOL, keep slinging the mud 2CAV. No one's listening anymore.
Another America hating paul supporting RINO coming to the defense of the saint paulies girl
