Republicans need Conservatives who will fight for Republican ideas. Twelve Senators voted against Conservatives on what was the biggest issue that has come along in quite some time concerning Conservatives and Americans, Cloture on the Immigration bill, showing an all to apparent disconnect between Conservatives and the Senators who were elected to represent Conservatives.
Also it most be said that some of these twelve Senators are personally responsible for the 2006 defeat of a Republican controlled Senate because of their extreme individualism bordering on maverickism.
Over the years it has become painfully apparent that some of these Senators are uncomfortable with Conservatism. For example Senator Olympia Snowe is a Lincoln Chaffe Republican in the worst tradition of Conservatism. She and Republican Senators like her should either change their Party affiliation or step down or be removed so that a Conservative can do the job that these American Senators won’t do.
In light of the hyper-partisanship of the Democrat Party if Conservatives are not as enthusiastic and committed to their ideas this country will be ripped away from its traditional moorings in the span of two Presidential administrations.
If any of the follow are your Senator(s) please help by looking for a Conservative in your state to run against these politicians and support that person against these incumbents. We must do all that we can to strengthen the Party that Bush, McCain, Specter and Lott has decimated.
Bring Conservatism back to the Republican Party and finish the sweep of 2006! It’s time for a new direction within our Party, its time for pride in the things that Conservatives stand for.
If Democrats can have pride in homosexuality, abortion, refusing to protect America and hating Republicans, we certainly can have pride in fighting to protect America and American values, marriage, families, life, liberty and happiness with none of the perversions that Liberals attempt to attach to these ideas!
Defeat these former Senators walking and give them what they really want, the ability to support Liberal ideology! Of course they’ll do it on their own dime!

Now that’s a winning political statement if I’ve ever saw one. Wonder why none of the Republican candidates thought to say it or is it that none of them has the nerve to say it? Democrats think they have a winner,"Stop the War Now." I guess these guy aren't concerned with winning anything except winning an American election at any cost.
Well since 2008 is going to be all about the war somebody had better come up with something quick or measuring drapes for the offices in Congress wouldn’t be the only measuring that Democrats will be doing. (If you know what I mean!) Democrats are already planning their 2008 offensive against Republicans while the President is attempting to wrangle cats for a cattle drive. Plainly spoken we don’t need comprehensive immigration reform Republicans what we need is comprehensive GOP reform!
Democrats voted for this war argued for it and now are attempting to run away from it now that a strong anti-war movement has risen in their netroots driven by moveon.org. This is extremely hypocritical of Democrats but highly political efficient because Democrats don’t seem to mind hypocrisy in their own ranks. See below.
While President Bush is attempt to be the front man for Immigration Reform or Amnesty for illegal aliens his Democrats compatriots are sharpening knives to insert into his political back regarding the war in Iraq. Yep going to make short work of him!
Thus making the Immigration alliance between he and his Democrat co-conspirers the shortest cease fire ever in the history of the Red State Blue State Divide between Democrats who hold legislative power and a lone Republican President who has ineptly shot himself in the foot, distancing himself from his own party, with divisive language aimed at Conservatives who find it wise to proceed with caution whenever Senator Ted Kennedy is involved comprehensively in anything.
That not withstanding, a plot is a foot in Congress to continue to press for the immediate withdrawal of troops from Iraq Mr. Bush. "On Iraq, we're going to hold the president's feet to the fire," said Senate Majority leader Harry Reid, saying debate would start in two weeks time.
In fact in two weeks Democrats plan a full court press against the White house regarding the war. Just a little sumthin’ sumthin’ to keep Republicans busy and on the defensive while Democrats gain momentum for taking the White house in 2008.
I thought I’d tell you Mr. Bush since your “spidey senses” don’t seem to be working all that well and your political advisers are either on vacation or Sen. Carl Levin, Mich. (D), chairman of the Armed Services Committee is holding them hostage along with Joint Chief of Staff General Peter Pace.
Instead of drawing down on Republicans President Bush, and attempting to change minds regarding legislation that you’re attempting to force though Congress and into law, maybe you should be doing the same strategizing, with Republicans, as the Democrats are doing against you. Democrats are about to wage various on-slots against your Presidency for the time that you have remaining. You can’t say that you haven’t been warned!
Democrats have stated that they will challenge the White House with new withdrawal timelines, troop readiness issues and the curtailing of the president's authority to continue the War.
Democrat Majority leader Harry Reid admits that Democrats made some mistakes in their first attempt to cut and run from Iraq but Reid acknowledges that they have a new and better plan this time.
The Democrat new attempt will be attached to an authorization bill a measure that approves $649 billion in military spending, not a war budget in support of the troops. So effectively Democrats can attack the war without giving the appearance that they are actually cutting off funds to the troops. What do you have in response Mr. President? …Nothing? I thought so!
Senator Reid would also call for debate on an amendment which sets a goal for combat troop withdrawals by the end of March 2008. Anything from across the aisle Mr. Bush? Yeah… I didn’t think so!
Hello is anyone in the White house getting this? You’re worried about Comprehensive Immigration reform and the Democrats are going to Comprehensively Reform the Presidency of the United States of America by getting their candidate elected. They’re going to do it by keeping the Bush administration hunkered down, while attempting to keep a Democratic controlled Congress from undermining the war effort. Somebody’s not seeing the big picture here Republicans. (Where’s Karl Rove when you need him?)
First it was House Speaker Nancy Pelosi laying out the plan for Republican destruction and now it’s Reid announcing their intent to buffalo the Republicans. They must figure that Republicans are so stupid that they can tell them what they intend to do and just do it.
Come on guys the Trent Lott, BILL FRIST 1866 Marquis of Queensbury Rules of politics are over. Republicans need some real political communicaters, strategist and fighters if Republicans are going to salvage themselves for the 2008 and 2010 elections.
Stopping the Amnesty bill is a good start Republicans but if protecting America’s borders and representing Republican values are jobs that you as Americans won’t do then please step down or let it be known that you feel that you can no longer serve as a Republican in the House, Senate or White house and I’m sure that Republicans will replace you with someone who will do the work that you an American representative won’t do.
Any ways, Its time you Republicans start listening to your netroots! Judging by the 2006 fiasco and the political chaos that the GOP now finds itself in, it couldn’t hurt.
You guys are in some serious need of some Republican political muscle. Unfortunately that’s a job that Republicans who are trying to mimic Democrats or compassion Conservatives just won’t do!
“OUR GOAL IS POLITICAL EXTINCTION FOR WAR SUPPORTERS”—Tom Matzzie, campaign manager for Americans Against Escalation in Iraq
If President Bush had any sense of the political calamity which is about to befall him, he would immediately drop the intra party divisiveness that his amnesty for law breakers has created in the Republican party and focus on the pending catastrophe that is about to be unleashed on his dispirited political party.
Jihad Nancy Pelosi, Democrats and antiwar groups are planning a major assault starting this summer meant to force Republican lawmakers to abandon support for the President’s war policy. An already weakened President Bush can ill afford any further erosion of support after he purposely created a fracture in the Republican Party over his illegal alien policies.
Democrats plan a two prong strategy of keeping pressure on the White house with repeat votes in the House and the Senate for bills to withdraw U.S. forces from Iraq and antiwar groups Moveon.org, Americans Against Escalation in Iraq, VoteVets.org and the Service Employees International Union plan to go into the congressional districts of Republican members who they feel are vulnerable for defeat and create a political environment that is toxic. According to Tom Matzzie, campaign manager for Americans Against Escalation in Iraq, "The public is there already. It is really about focusing their anger."
The coalition is planning an all out aggressive television advertising campaign, against Republicans who support the President and the war who are up for reelection next year.
If the President and Republicans choose to disregard this cautioning and do no strategizing of their own they choose to lose and the 2008 election year will be as badly mismanaged as the war in Iraq has been thus far. Could Senator Harry Reid be right? “THE WAR IS LOST!”
If not it will be …if Democrats have their way it will be!
Compromise used to mean that half a loaf was better than no bread. Among modern statesmen it really seems to mean that half a loaf; is better than a whole loaf. --Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) British journalist, novelist and poet.
Compromise makes a good umbrella, but a poor roof; it is temporary expedient, often wise in party politics, almost sure to be unwise; in statesmanship. --James Russell Lowell (1819-1891) American poet, critic and editor.
Interestingly the latest advice to Republicans coming from Liberals is in order to win elections you must compromise your values. That is the gist of the Daniel Finkelstein Times online piece. That is exactly what Liberals would want Conservatives to do which is also one of the crucial differences between the two political philosophies.
Liberals believe that Conservatives should compromise Conservative values in order to win elections because those values are wrong, unyielding and inflexible. Though Liberals would never compromise their, written in stone, core issues Roe, Homosexuality or the War.
Yet there is a Liberal belief that Republicans must compromise conservative values before Republicans will appeal to the independent voters that Liberals managed to peel away from Conservatives in the 2006 mid-term elections. Wait a minute don’t panic just yet!
That idea is completely at odds with Conservative ideology. If Conservativism is the adherence to the traditional and to the status quo, then to change or compromise would be… would make Conservatives no better than Liberals who believe that any compromise is worthy if the desired goal or goals are achieved.
Liberals did many things to Compromise their own ideologies in the 2006 elections. They run Democrat “Conservative” war veteran candidates against Republican incumbents. These so-called Democrat “Conservatives” promised to support the war if elected however after being elected into office they proved that it was all a lie. They actually supported Pelosi’s and Reid’s farce of a war funding bill which declares legislatively as Senator Harry Reid announced to al Qaeda and the world, “The war is lost!” That is the real meaning behind the pull out dates attached to the bill that was sent to the President by partisan Democrats. “The war is lost.”
The President immediately dispatched the “cut and run” bill with a veto. Democrats argue that it wasn’t cut and run it was actually cut and walk because of the dates requiring a slow pull down of troops. One thing one has to admit and that is Democrats do have a sense of humor, playing around with American troops funding, now that’s just hilarious.
I bet the troops think it’s down right slap stick the way President Nancy Pelosi and Vice President Harry Reid of the Blue states of America are sticking it to President Bush of the United States of America, after all that’s what the people wanted when they elected Democratic control of Congress right?
It ought to be a real laugh riot when Democratic playing around with troop funding results in lack of supplies and or armament for our fighting personnel on the front line in Iraq.
Conservatives must disregard Liberal’s attempts to call for change in Conservative ideology. If this advice was any good Liberal’s would have changed after their two major defeats in the 2000 and 2004 elections. The fact of the matter is they only changed strategy but they did not forsake any Liberal core ideology.
As for changing Conservative tactics and strategies try these:
Never let your opponent define the language and the terms of the debate.
Let no spurious charge go unanswered you never know what weak minded independent is listening
Remember politics is war
Come to fight and keep fighting because they are
Democrats are not your friends, countrymen or colleagues (well maybe they are your countrymen but just barely)
Just because a Democrat says that a Republican should step down from office doesn’t necessarily mean that he or she should
Democrats invented the politics of hate; don’t let anyone tell you otherwise
Any Republican voting along with Democrats is not a Republican
Co-operate with Democrats just like they co-operate with Republicans
Don’t worry about the moral high ground unless you can get a clear shot from there
Democrats will always view kindness as weakness
Being called a liar by a Democrat is like being called a liar by the Clintons
Don’t try to be “better” than they are, answer each and every slander, insult and mischaracterizing with an equal and forceful slander, insult and mischaracterization of the Democrat and or his or her position
And never ever take advice from a Liberal on what Republicans need to do to win anything!
It wasn’t to long ago that Democrats and Liberals where wringing their hands wonder what they were going to do to gain power. The fact that they accomplished their goal in eight years without following any advice from Republicans is an indication that political trends are circular and that political fortune is serendipitous.
Voters have been mislead by the Democrat party over the last eight years and the only change needed is change to the hearts and minds of an electorate that has been duped by the politics of personal destruction and the politics of hate.
Voters simply need to be educated as to why their interests are best served by people who care for traditional values and keeping America safe and strong.
To panic now and jettison Conservative values just to garner a few votes will have long term effects and political office would make Conservatives no better than Democrats who have show themselves to be nothing more than political nappy headed hos who are willing to sell themselves out for votes and who manipulates circumstances and people for political gain.
It’s much too early to make nice and as Conservatives, it’s never time to compromise what we believe. It’s time to wake-up the hearts and minds of those who have been deceived by the racial far left.
