If it's Good for America, it's Bad for Democrats

Rush, of course, has been saying this for years, and not to take away from Dennis Prager, because he has a brilliantly illustrative piece today on the hapless democrats titled If It's Bad for America, It's Good for Democrats. Can you imagine a time in history that such could be possible? How could a political party even exist that wants America to lose an ongoing war?

One needs to digest Prager's entire column, but I can't resist previewing a few paragraphs for you:

Name almost any subject, and this unhealthy pattern can be discerned.

If African Americans come to believe that America is a land of opportunity in which racism has been largely conquered, it would be catastrophic for the Democrats. The day that most black Americans see America in positive terms will be the day Democrats lose any hope of winning a national election. Whatever one believes about the extent of racism in America, one cannot deny that the Democrats need black Americans to feel victimized by racism. Contented black Americans spell disaster for the Democratic Party.

If women marry, it is bad for the Democratic Party. Single women are an essential component of any Democratic victory. Unmarried women voted for Kerry by a 25-point margin (62 percent to 37 percent), while married women voted for President Bush by an 11-point margin (55 percent to 44 percent). According to a pro-Democrat website, The Emerging Democratic Majority, "the 25-point margin Kerry posted among unmarried women represented one of the high water marks for the Senator among all demographic groups."

After women marry, they are more likely to abandon leftist views and to vote Republican. And if they then have children, they will vote Republican in even more lopsided numbers. The bottom line is that when Americans marry, it is bad for the Democratic Party; when they marry and make families, it is disastrous for the party.

If immigrants assimilate, it is not good for Democrats. The Democratic Party has invested in Latino separatism. The more that Hispanic immigrants come to feel fully American, the less likely they are to vote Democrat. The liberal notion of multiculturalism helps Democrats, while adoption of the American ideal of e pluribus unum (out of many, one) helps Republicans. That is one reason Democrats support bilingual education -- it hurts Hispanic children, but it keeps them from full assimilation -- and oppose making English America's official language.

There's much more, and it begs your attenton. The next election may very well be one of the most important in the history of our country.

The dems have come to the point that they're not even hiding their leftist agenda and unfortunately, those who aren't paying attention may not even care. Those of us who DO care have a responsibility to spread the word that the worst thing that could happen to this country is to elect a passel of socialists who succeed when America fails.

"I Wish I Were a Sparrow"

My dad died back in '97 and when we all went through his "stuff" I happened upon this little ditty scribbled in his own handwriting:

I wish I were a sparrow,
with entrails like a goose,
So I could fly around unseen
with bowels big and loose.

I'd circle over Washington,
And none could ever know;
But when I heard these words,
"My Friends..."
I'd chirp and let'er go!

Heh heh! Not sure who wrote that, but it wouldn't surprise me if dad did...wish I could claim it as his!

Dad was a Goldwater conservative and pretty active politically. He was always in the know. He knew about the Kennedy family "indiscretions" and LBJ's despicable corruption well before his presidency and he held the U.N. in utter contempt. He knew the U.N. was a communist organization back then (from the beginning, actually) as they are to this day.

In a word, dad was connected and knew what was going on, on the left side of the isle. That was in the '60's way before the 'New Media,' yet dad was on the cutting edge.

It's in my blood, folks!

Lot's has changed since the early 60's; the "right" has veered to the center and the left has boldly surfaced as the socialists they've always been. Hardline conservatives are often marginalized even by republicans and the left has become the party sympathetic to the terrorists and all who wish to destroy us. It's a different world. It's a dangerous world!

There are those on the left and even in the so-called moderate middle who would have us be totally disgusted by everyone in politics and thereby wish us to stay home this November on election day. We just can't do that! As disgusting as some politicians are on both sides, it's encumbant on good people to vote for the lesser of two evils. That's right, although there are alot of creeps in Washington, there are those who are worse than others.

The republicans still stand head and shoulders above the leftist dems,
at least for the most part.

I'm not a republican, I'm a staunch conservative and I eschew most of the politics of the present day republicans. It's not unusual for me to hold my nose when I vote for them, but we can't afford to vote otherwise.

Can we afford to allow politicians to gain power who would cut and run from the war against Islamofascist terrorists? Do we want to wage war against ruthless terrorists in OUR OWN country? Can we afford to let the socialist dems gain the majority? No way! Not now, not ever!

We've got a little more than a month to convince our friends and neighbors to do the right thing and vote against the democrats. You can vote for the republicans if you wish, but it's imperative that we all vote against the dems. They are a dangerous lot!

Polls: Democrats Love McCain

The latest polls are showing that Democrats Love McCain and would vote for him if their "guy" isn't nominated. And why would they not want to vote for McCain? He's nothing more than a democrat in sheer republican clothes. That's right, sheer! You can see right through him. If he's a republican it's in name only, but how many times must we labor through that.

The McCain republicans are the new democrats. The democrats are the new socialists..."progressives" if you will! The conservatives have become the homeless party because we have no where to go and no one to vote for.

Is it time for a viable Conservative Third party? If there EVER was a time, it's now!

The Foreign Policy Speech McCain gave yesterday is testimony to the fact that his foreign policy is absolutely in line with Hillary and Obama. He's insistent to secede our sovereignty to international organizations and determined to give terrorists constitutional rights by closing down GITMO and bringing the combatants to our country which by constitutional demands, would confer upon them the rights of United States citizens. How ridiculous is that? Even worse, he would allow the European potentates to determine how or what we do with our "prisoners of war" as if they would better know how to deal with terrorists.

The very reason GITMO exists is so THEY DON'T GET THE SAME RIGHTS AS CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES....DUH!!! And McCain is supposed to be the right guy with our national security in mind? I don't think so!

We're in a world of hurt, folks, because we really don't have a choice for president. They are virtually ALL THE SAME when it boils down to the important stuff!

If ever there was a time for a conservative third party, it is now!

President Bush insults his most loyal supporters

President Bush insulted his most loyal supporters yesterday by saying those who don't want the "immigration bill" are refusing to do "what's right for America."

WASHINGTON -
President Bush wants Congress to approve an immigration compromise bill that will be supported mainly by Democrats.

He’s no longer worried about getting re-elected, so in his pushing for the bill’s passage, Bush has now told millions of voters to get lost. These are the people who have been his most loyal supporters on virtually every other issue.

Yet Bush now condemns them as unwilling to do “what’s right for America” and accuses their allies in Congress of using “empty rhetoric” to misrepresent the bill as a form of amnesty for illegal aliens. Bush appealed for “a chance to fix the problems in a comprehensive way that enforces our border and treats people with decency and respect.”

We don’t see how it is either decent or respectful to label critics of the immigration bill as unpatriotic and intellectually dishonest.

In the most fundamental sense, the debate is not about whether people from foreign countries should be allowed to come here and become American citizens. In a post-9/11 world, the critical debate is about securing our borders; everything else is secondary.

Whatever happens with the immigration bill now being debated in Congress, Bush’s greatest failure has been his consistent refusal to take concrete and credible steps to secure America’s borders, especially the nearly 2,000 miles shared with Mexico.

It remains to be seen whether this bill is going to make it, but if it does, there's going to be hell to pay for those who support it; which doesn't bode well for the republican party.

Frustrated conservatives are aching for decisive leadership in congress as well as in the presidential race. There are plenty of politicians who stake claim to the "conservative" moniker, but who among them stands up unapologetically and challenges the foolish platitudes emanating from the left.

Where is the conservative who will demand that our borders be sealed to illegals. Where is the conservative who will demand we lift restrictions on domestic drilling, nuclear power plants and refineries? Where is he? Why isn't anyone seriously challenging Al Gore's faith-based global warming (now called "climate change" for obvious reasons) agenda? Why isn't anyone decrying the foolishness of socialistic medicine? Why isn't anyone explaining the fact that millions of illegals are destroying Social Security?

It seems as though the entire country is being hijacked by an immovable force who couldn't care less what the people want when it comes to secure borders and what's really good for us and our future.

Big Government gladly will respond to the pork mongers. Want more money for your special interest group? No problem! More billions for Africa? Only an insensitive hate filled conservative would question that.

How about we concentrate on securing the borders right now, and before making new, unenforceable laws (which would immediately legalize all of the illegals who are living here), we uphold and enforce our existing laws.

I've posted the above "Amigo de Mexico" illustration before, but I figure this is as good a time as any to repost it.

I'm not a republican; I'm a conservative. There are still a lot of conservatives out there, but the republican party has become nothing more than the democrat party and the dems have outed themselves as outright socialists. Both parties have listed to the far left leaving conservatives with no one to support.

Figure it out, elected republicans! You are cutting yourselves off from the people who put you in office!

GOP In Big Trouble

THIS is what happens when republicans abandon their conservative base:

Shell shocked House Republicans got warnings from leaders past and present Tuesday: Your party’s message isn’t good enough to prevent disaster in November, and neither is the NRCC’s money.

The double shot of bad news had one veteran Republican House member worrying aloud that the party’s electoral woes — brought into sharp focus by Woody Jenkins’ loss to Don Cazayoux in Louisiana on Saturday — have the House Republican Conference splitting apart in “everybody for himself” mode.

“There is an attitude that, ‘I better watch out for myself, because nobody else is going to do it,’” the member said. “There are all these different factions out there, everyone is sniping at each other, and we have no real plan. We have a lot of people fighting to be the captain of the lifeboat instead of everybody pulling together.”

In a piece published in Human Events, the Republicans’ onetime captain, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, warned his old colleagues that they face “real disaster” on Election Day unless they move immediately to “chart a bold course of real reform” for the country.

Sadly, the republicans are clueless. Just as the dems have raced at breakneck speeds to the left, so have the republicans. The feckless republicans have become the liberal democrats of 30 years ago and the dems have become out and out socialists. The conservatives are in a high state of urination...we're pissed, folks, and the republican party is wondering why they don't have any money or support.

The republicans are bereft of leadership and they will continue to flounder until they beg forgiveness of their conservative base and begin instituting some right thinking plans to defeat the destructive leftists who will likely dominate in the next election.

Refinery bill fails...But Why?

America is wondering why the hell refineries aren't coming out of the ground in every logical location. Here's why! It's because Congress hasn't yet felt enough heat to pass an emergency bill that would allow refineries to be built RIGHT NOW!

Republicans have become democrats and democrats are now accurately behaving like the socialists they've always been. Conservatives are no longer an entity in Congress. There may be some on the fringes, but they have been rendered irrelevant. At least, that's the way it seems and in politics perception is reality.

What is REALLY going on in Washington? Are we the people, just being totally disregarded? Is there a nefarious hidden agenda that America would not tolerate?

I don't believe that leftists are in a majority in this country, yet, but you would never know that by the way the emasculated republicans are acting.

We've got trouble, boys and girls, unless some bold conservative leadership comes to the fore, sticks up for what is right and seriously upholds the Constitution.

Yes, there is right and there is wrong and what's going on in this country regarding oil exploration and production, illegal immigration and unbridled government growth is absolutely wrong.

Politicians are scurrying around in a desperate attempt to save their jobs by trying to appease the voter in a short term way. Some of the "smart guys" in Washington thought they could buy us off for one hundred pretaxed dollars...Puhleeeeese...No more insults, no more blaming "Big Oil," no more lies. Just fix the problem by allowing exploration in Anwar and off the California and Florida coasts and let the refineries be built...right now!

And cut gas taxes. Politicos want an immediate fix and this is it, but they can't bear to do with less like their constituents do on a daily basis.

This is why conservatives detest what republicans have become

The republicans may have deserved to lose. It pains me to say that and I did in fact vote; I voted steadfastly against Obama. But this article is all you need to know about why the republicans lost the election. Here's the nauseating headline: Lindsey Graham Praises the Rahm Emanuel Selection and here's the nauseating quote:

"This is a wise choice by President-elect Obama.

"Rahm knows Capitol Hill and has great political skills. He can be a tough partisan but also understands the need to work together. He is well-suited for the position of White House Chief of Staff.

"I worked closely with him during the presidential debate negotiations which were completed in record time. When we hit a rough spot, he always looked for a path forward. I consider Rahm to be a friend and colleague. He's tough but fair. Honest, direct, and candid. These qualities will serve President-elect Obama well."

The republicans have adopted the Rodney King philosophy ("Can't we all get along?") of making nice with the dems. They've bought in to the bogus ideology that partisanship is bad and non-partisanship is good. Non-partisanship by the Left's definition (and it is they whom the lame republicans have allowed to control the language) means that you must cave in to dems at the risk of being marginalized, minimized, demonized and relentlessly made fun of by sycophantic media types. Ironically, the republicans never protest when the dems are partisan.

As I've said for years, the republicans have become democrats and the dems have become socialists and there's no where for conservatives to go.

As Rush, Hannity and Mark Levin and others have been saying, the republican party must be purged and re-energized by the party's base; the ones who were ecstatic with Sarah Palin.

Lindsey Graham, John McCain and the other RINO's who are more comfortable crossing the isle than aligning with their own base are the reason Obama won this election.

The gods of Political Correctness

George Neumayr succinctly explains just what the hell is going on in Washington DC in his HUMAN EVENTS piece today. Be sure to read the entire article, but here are a couple of the money paragraphs:

As America careens from one artificial public controversy to the next, it becomes more and more obvious that politically correct liberalism dominates both parties, albeit in varying degrees of intensity. The Democrats represent full-throttle political correctness while Republicans stand ready to advance political correctness just a little bit more slowly.

One of the Democrats' most successful rackets is to label any Republican position, no matter how timid, "extremist." This ensures that skittish Republicans will eventually even step away from that timid position. The "conservative" position, under the pressures of this demagoguery, inevitably becomes the liberal one of yesteryear, and then a little time passes and that position is deemed outrageous. This is seen across the board -- such as when Democrats and Republicans squabble pointlessly over the rate of growth of federal programs that shouldn't exist in the place -- but it shows up most starkly on moral issues.

Look at the ginned-up outrage over Marine Gen. Peter Pace's opposition to homosexual behavior in the military -- a dispute which is designed to make even support for Bill Clinton's Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy appear "extremist." After suffering more than a decade of political correctness mau-mauing, Republicans have gone from opposing that policy in 1992 as a stupid and needless relaxation of a total ban on homosexuals to supporting that policy (as a Clinton-era concession to liberalism) to signaling a willingness to embrace the full-blown PC position on gays in the military, which is: Don't Care. For those keeping score, today's outlandishly "conservative" position, as determined by the ever-changing scale of political correctness, is Bill Clinton's policy.

Again, please read the entire piece. I've been saying for years to anyone who would listen, that the dems have become overt socialists and the republicans have become liberal democrats, leaving the conservatives in the learch.

Conservatives aren't going to find anyone currently serving in public "service" to lead their movement; some new blood will have to emerge and fast if this toxic PC trend is to be overturned.
