The Foolishness of Dreaming About a Perfect GOP While Losing the Country

Posted by Sheila on Monday, December 14, 2009 7:57:31 PM
I am amazed at Conservatives who are saying they will just as soon have the status quo continue, rather than vote GOP if there isn't a perfectly 100% conservative GOP and candidates. This is very foolish, because we will never have a 100% conservative GOP, because we will never have a 100% conservative voting public! 

Sure the ideal would be to have every single candidate and every single member of the party be a 100% conservative in every critical issue, but unfortunately as far as I know, we are living in an imperfect world with imperfect voters, candidates and parties.

The best way to change the party is get more republicans re-elected, and then stay on their case to get them to do what we want. Unfortunately, until we convert every single American to our way of thinking there will be moderates, independents, green party, libertarian and every other possible perspective, not to mention radical leftists. 

The danger to every American, and to this country is to think we can move our agenda forward having radicals in charge for several years, while we dream about a perfect party! No one in this country is benefiting right now with the dems in charge other than the elitists who are spending us into oblivion.

I'm sorry, but this strategy is about the most stupid strategy I ever heard of. No one can convince me that we will be better off saying "a pox on both houses",  and not voting republican if there isn't a perfect candidate. If we have more republicans in office the chances are higher we will have conservatives making decisions and doing the right thing, and we at least have a voice in DC, unlike our current situation! What is it going to take for us conservatives to realize that we must make sure the current radicals don't get another four years to completely ruin the country, and all our lives?  

Please, don't come here and bad mouth Bush and McCain. Neither of those men would be devastating the country as it is being devastated now, and besides, they are not in control of the country right now!

America's Future in Question?

Posted by Sheila on Tuesday, April 28, 2009 12:11:50 PM
Our Constitution was written by honorable men for honorable men. How does the Constitution deal with corrupt men ( ie dictator wannabes) who gain total power through our election process?
 
Our system relies on honest elections, and while the converstation among some conservative pundits has been that if the left wins (which they did)  and takes the country down the tubes (which they are), we would come back in the next election and take back the House and Senate, and then two years later in the presidential election, we would take back the White House, this is all based on hope...it isn't a given.
 
So here we are. We are now in the process of figuring out how the tea parties will grow into a permanent movement to gain back control of the government which is now spiralling out of control. We have an administration  in power that is radically left, and is poised to take the previous administration to trial for having taken their oath to protect America seriously, after a barbaric attack on our soil. The interesting little factoid is the Bush administration did everything with the approval of  Democrats...but in the new world of selective reality, that doesn't seem to matter.
