“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!
Teach the older men to be temperate, worthy of respect, self-controlled, and sound in faith, in LOVE and in endurance. Titus 2:2
Desperate times call for bold measures so it is time for the Tea Party to flank the establishment in this election. The Country Club knows if the Conservatives all split the vote they will end up with their candidate just like they did last time. They know that if Mitt Rino can win MA, NY, IL, MD and CA there are enough delegates to beat whatever combination the divided Conservatives come up with. They also know the winner of the Repub primary will win the election and solidify their power for the next decade or longer and finally destroy any power the Tea Party momentarily acquired from them. They lose and the people are freed from their manipulation of the system.
There are two establishments that need to beaten. Obviously the first one is the commie left which is becoming desperate, but the second one is the socialist Country Club which are the money men inside our Party as well as their punditocracy. This is the first enemy that needs to be beaten in the primary which is represented by Mitt. The way to beat him is to rally the Conservative vote behind one candidate to outflank their strategy by carrying all of the south and inland red states. We have to focus behind one candidate now and that candidate is Cain.
There is no doubt we have a wealth of great Conservative candidates who we all like, but they are all fatally flawed against Mitt and he is counting on a divide and conquer strategy. Michelle Bachmann and Santorum need to quit the race and put their support behind Cain now since they have no chance for any delegates. They can only play the role as spoiler, which is fine when you have the luxury of time, but this year we don’t. There can only be one Tea Party candidate.
Newt is gaining steam but as good as he is there is no way he is going to get passed his divorce issues and Perry has been his worst enemy in the debates. He has enough money to get through the election but great commercials are not going to erase the memories of his first two debates. He did much better in the third but the damage was done and he can always go back to being the Governor. His problem is in the general he will be morphed into Bush and does not have the verbal skills to dispel those attacks.
Cain has both the articulation and the gut knowledge of true Conservatism to carry the torch. He has done as well as Newt in the debates and has a charisma Newt doesn’t possess. When it comes down to a debate between Cain and Mitt you will have a polished politician who has really only won a single election and a Tea Partier who has been a businessman for decades. America is not starving for another polished politician, the establishmedia is.
The knock of course is the 999 plan. What is intriguing about this solution is it would literally bulldoze the IRS as well as eliminate all of the tax code leverage politicians and lobbyists live for. No longer would you be spending thousands to have your taxes prepared to avoid taxes when it would come down to a single page return.
The fear is 999 will become 20 20 20 when raising taxes is as old as the democrat party so what is so different about that. Who is to say the Tea Party doesn’t win control from the establishment of both parties and cut spending enough to take 999 to 777? This is the most dramatic change in tax law we have seen in our lifetimes and would put a stranglehold on the most corrupt and abused system of behavior manipulation the gummit possesses. Business and personal decisions would be made on economic evaluation rather than tax advantages and avoidance. It also eliminates the tax the rich war cry the commies have been using for the last century. This is bold and brilliant with a simple solution that would collapse the basic foundation of the District of Corruption. The destruction of the IRS would be a giant step towards freeing ourselves of the DC chains that regulate our lives 24/7/365.
Herman Cain is not a politician but a business man which is exactly what we need this election. He is not owned by anybody as he has plenty to live the rest of his life so he is not bought by the DC establishment. Is there any question that Mitt is already bought and paid for by all of his donors and handlers so the corruption would continue without missing a beat? Cain can arrive with an agenda to clean out corruption and bring in the proper people to expose the graft and corruption without having to worry about which ones of his friends will be caught in the crosshairs.
He is a straight shooter who calls them like he sees them with a quick wit and clear articulation which will reach those who would never listen to an old tired politician like Romney. It is time for the Tea Party and their sympathizers to group behind one Conservative while there is still time and run across the US like the wind across the wheat fields, he is our only chance of defeating the Country Club.
Our Country is barely breathing with the commie left attempting to put the final death shot into its heart. We need bold leaders with bold plans rather than poll tested pandering we have seen from both Parties in the past. A true conservative is the answer to our problems who can articulate those ideas from the White House. The only candidate who can beat Romney now is Cain so it is time to choose early and do everything possible to get a viable Conservative to the nomination who will be the next President to drain the swamp and capture the gators. It’s time for the Hurri-Cain to blow across America.
Pray for America
Note: The above opinion is not necessarily mine, but FReeper Bray’s. If you wish to discuss this, please ping Bray.
Thanks for the ping, AB. I think I’ll hang out here for a while since there’s a few reasonably good guests today
Yep! The RINO punditocracy!
Remember, please, that Ann Coulter, and many of the other Fox stable of pundits, are bedazzled by Romney's hair and radioactively bleached teeth. They are also the **same** people who claim that it is unimportant that a non-natural born American citizen ( maybe not even a citizen) is occupying the Red House ( oops! “White” House).
“Punditocracy”? ....Beware of Fox!
I am not going to jump on the Cain bandwagon just yet. I really didn't like his statement about Perry being insensitive when the Washington Post tried to “Macaca” him. Cain needs to understand he cannot snap at the media's bait.
I'm not opposed to Cain as president. He'd make a good one. I'm also not opposed to Perry as president. Some of his statements and stands over past 5 years I've also really liked.
Bottom line for me is I am not so violently anti ANY Republican running. Whoever gets the nomination I will support. Even Romney. Attack if you must, but I do not think the country can survive four more years of Obama, but we can survive four years of even a RINO.
I'll vote for a conservative in my state's primary, but let me reiterate: Anybody but OBAMA!!!
Thanks for thread AB. Bambi started his 5th war but no worry, he is bailing from Iraq before the end of this year, so we’ll be back down to 4.
I absolutely agree with your assessment on current candidates. Sarah has changed her politics from Republican to Conservative on her FaceBook. Media is chisling hard to bring down Cain and Perry to leave ther boy the last man standing. I hope these guys can withstand this to allow to primary voters to decide the GOP candidate.
Brilliant essay Bray.......what we need to do is copy this and send it to everyone we know so we will be a united voting block. We also need to contribute to the Cain campaign.
There’s half a chance I’d try ‘This Week’ with John Lewis if I thought there was any hope they’d address the echo twinkies fiasco in Atlanta. There’s no chance I’d tolerate listening to David “UhErrUh” Axelrod discuss anything. Ever.
Interesting line-up on Meet the Press.
Thanx
MEET THE PRESS (NBC): GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain; former Gov. Tim Pawlenty, R-Minn.
Are we going to discuss Cain’s campaign in the context of what Pawlenty disagrees with?
For me its all about the long game.
I firmly believe whomever we place as a Republican candidate will beat zero. His days are numbered and his newest asset occupy whatever are only digging his hole a little bit deeper.
Truth is our movement has never been about one election, one candidate, or one anything.
It's about winning the long game. Doing in the muzzies,the left, the dems, those who would destroy the country.Nothing has changed.
We now realize that rinos are not part of the solution but part of the problem. But as we have seen in the past we can't rid the world of rinos over night it takes time.
Our first steps are to kill their money supply and then light fires under their butts until they realize the truth; that we in charge.
Once Sarah Palin takes to the road in her bus, energizes crowed after crowd, gets candidate after candidate fired up/elected while Mitt is still looking for an audience the sad truth will be upon them.
Rinos are near extinction they just haven't figured it out yet.
My first choice as well was Palin.
At this point,IMHO,its about killing off the left so our kids have a chance.My first job is to get rid of zero and as many henchmen in Congress as possible. After that everything else is just gravy.
He is always filled with DNC chatting points and in a dying administration I can't wait to hear what they are up to now. Just whose fault all this is.
Wont be watching ABC this week. They have that Pig Axelrod on there. Too bad, I will miss George Will.
