The Republican House Steering Committee header by Speaker of the House John Boehner kicked two of the most conservative representatives off the House Budget Committee.
It is little wonder why Congress has a 16 percent approval rating: Americans send principled representatives to change Washington and get punished in return.
The GOP leadership might think they have silenced conservatives, but removing me and others from key committees only confirms our conservative convictions. This is clearly a vindictive move, and a sure sign that the GOP Establishment cannot handle disagreement.
If you insist, but enabling the govt to kill off nascent human life is not technically libertarian, that’s Leftism/statism.
Libertarians tend to take the leftist stance on abortion. Also gay marriage.
When one is up to his a**hole in Alligators, it is oft times difficult to remember that the original intent was to drain the swamp.
So here we are in America, soft on Communism as we were warned about 60 years ago, and wondering why, who, how,what, when, and where did we get on this wrong track Communist swamp buggy?
Thus, it is well that we review where are by pondering the, [slightly modified], words of historical wisdom from the flagpage of a VERY wise FReeper as follows:
The Ten Planks of Karl Marxs Communist Manifesto,
(and How Statists Implement Them):
1.) Abolition of private property rights, (via high property taxes, restrictive zoning laws, fair housing edicts, environmental and wetlands regulations, UN Agenda 21, etc.).
2.) Institution of a heavily graduated income tax, (by calling it taxing the rich).
3.) Abolition of all rights of inheritance, (through a confiscatory estate tax on the rich).
4.) Confiscation of the property of enemies of the state, (through lawless application of asset forfeiture and eminent domain).
5.) Centralization of credit into the hands of the state, (Federal Reserve, Federal Trade Commission, TARP, FHA, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, federal takeover of student loans, etc.).
6.) Centralization of the means of communication and transportation into the hands of the state, (FCC, DOT, FEMA, NTSB, FAA, etc.).
7.) Consolidation and subjugation of all major industries to central government control, (FDA, EPA, OSHA, ICC, HUD, NLRB, EEOC, DOE, TSA, Medicare. Medicaid, Obamacare, etc.).
8.) Mandatory labor union membership, (card check to bypass employee consent, automatic withholding of union dues, forced unionization of health care workers, teachers, police, firefighters, etc.).
9.) Equitable redistribution of all wealth, (TANF, SSI, EITC, SNAP, etc.).
10.) State controlled, but Free public education, (and food, housing, health care, cell phones, Internet access, etc.).
“For example, one of them would not vote to deprive Planned Parenthood of funding.”
Do you have a link for that? Which one was it that supported Planned Parenthood funding?
thanks in advance
So what...? Paul's right on individual liberty, fiscal policy, and debt. You have a problem with that?
He also voted against the Iraq War, and against the Ryan budget.
That's what I have a problem with.
Boner kicks a tea party conservative from the center of the wheat production area of the country off the Agriculture committee? (My Cong. Dist.)
2014 election target: Purge GOP pussies from House and Senate. Only 100% Tea Party!
Huelskamp is not a paulite or libertarian.
You are full of crap.
