Go to Cspan.org and watch the 3 GOP candidates speak at the Wisconsin Faith and Freedom Rally. Do you agree with me that Newt Gingrich knocked out of the park, while Santorum continues with his whining how he is better than Romney and Romney tells stories about senior citizens who cannot retire? Believe me, we may be in trouble with either Santorum or Romney. Newt would beat Obama in a landslide.
I agree....I’d like to see Newt and Perry...damn right we’d get stuff done.
Definitely! They both have good, sound ideas and the knowledge and determination to carry them out.
Correctamundo! That was his best ever.
Give Newt the nomination. He will grab Hussein by his Marxist throat and never stop squeezing.
You can forget it — it would be too good to be true.
The Republican electorate is more liberal than what it pretends to be. Their overwhelming choice of Romney proves it.
“...He will grab Hussein by his Marxist throat and never stop squeezing.” Thanks, you made me smile!
Newt can give some stemwinders when he’s on his game and talking real Conservatism.
Ping for later viewing. Heading out to my two Great-Grandsons birthday party. Oldest is two today and his brother is one tomorrow. Two of the sweetest, cutest, boys you ever saw. Not that I am prejudiced or anything. :-)
“The Republican electorate is more liberal...”
I’m convinced it is as well as the country regardless what Rush says; or, maybe it’s more ignorant/uninformed than we’d like it to be.
Those words are as applicable and appropriate today as they were when Adams first penned them!
On June 9, 1776, John Adams wrote from Philadelphia, "Objects of the most stupendous magnitude, and measures in which the lives and liberties of millions yet unborn are intimately interested, are now before us . . . ."
On June 11, a Committee was formed to develop a declaration of their intentions.
On July 4, 1776, a lengthy Declaration of Independence was adopted which changed the world! William Ellery, Rhode Island, later wrote that he stood where he could watch every person sign the document: "I was determined to see how they all looked as they signed what might be their death warrant. I . . . eyed each closely . . . . Undaunted resolution was displayed on every countenance."
What a contrast! Our ancestors, in less than a month, took the kind of courageous action that leaders who love their country take on behalf of liberty for "millions yet unborn," accomplishing in just weeks what no civilization had accomplished before.
Today, feckless pretenders to leadership, living like kings in previous monarchies, personally risking nothing, make excuses for inaction and allow the precious inheritance of freedom to be risked for the sake of political power.
Who will emerge to bring excitement and enthusiasm of America's youth to the cause of liberty?
Who will risk all on behalf of "the lives and liberties of millions yet unborn"?
2012 Presidental election will take place on August 24th or shortly later as with Newt as nominee, we will have a new President; without Newt, we have 4 more years of Obama or longer.
We don’t have to wait until November.
After all, those tyrannical ideas cannot stand exposure to the light of reason. Such notions must be hidden in promises of "goodies" from "government" and masked by semantics and a hugely engaging smile, once they have been applauded.
A candidate whose focus is on "issues" like "jobs" (critical as they are) must possess something much deeper--a principle, if you will--which gives voters an "ah-hah" moment, if he is to reveal Obama's arguments to be the shallow and desperate attempts of a power-hungry wannabe ruler.
“Believe me, we may be in trouble with either Santorum or Romney. Newt would beat Obama in a landslide.”
I completely agree. Santorum served us well in PA, but I don’t think he could win in the fall and I am convinced that Romny will be another Dole or McCain.
That's what you mean, right?
There is no overwhelming body of people behind him ~ not the worker-bees, not the rank and file, not the elderly, not the young, not the Reagan Democrats, not the Catholics, not the............
They had to cheat to get Romney across in Virginia.
I'll just have to assume you had an invisible (/s) in there somewhere.
“...He will grab Hussein by his Marxist throat and never stop squeezing.”
Graphics Department......please pick up the white phone!
I’ve got the image in my mind, but lack the talent.
Yes.
The alternatives are very depressing indeed.
Exactly. How far we have fallen from where our Founders were at.
I’m disgusted by the mewling I see here on FR by the people who think we have to roll over and accept Romney otherwise “you just help re-elect Obama.”
1: Romney would be little different, so it’s not like it matters, and
2: These people are such fearful bootlicks that the concept of actually trying to put together a broad-based conservative alternative to the dicephalic single-party system we have right now is anathema to them - they’d rather sigh and resign themselves to socialism by one means or another than do anything that might resemble heavy lifting to try to do something about the situation.
GIVE ME NEWT or GIVE ME NOTHING.. ( which is what Romney & Santorum are )
