Lets see who in Congress are the real hypocrits with this legislation…H.R. 615

He was elected to the House in 98 and the Senate in 04. He is ranked as the most conservative member (which might be a negative in a national election….but heh, the Moron was ranked as the most liberal member).

He seems kind of boring, but maybe the country is ready for an adult instead of an mtv denizon.

He’s still married to the one he brought to the dance, but you never know, Sanford seemed like a straigh arrow 6 months ago as well.

Does anybody know anything about him?

PR: A homegrown candidate would be super. I’ll try that angle with my wife tonight ‘But honey, it’s for the country!’ ;-)

Exactly. Who wants to subject themselves to that abuse? It’s a huge problem.

Maybe conservatives need to do what the Left did with Obamy. Grow our very own puppet. Get him or her young. Select for physical characteristcs, insulate, protect, train, scrub/enhance the back story, purge the records, buyoff or purge acquaintances, build a mythology, spend years developing strategies to mask the flaws, practice practice practice obsuscation, create an army of propagandists, control the media channels, flood the market with more lies that can ever be tracked down. We could call him Raeagenstein.

And, yes, I understand that there are far more altruistic reasons to run than just money, but it’s the personal humiliation that is vulgar. And only getting worse – especially for those not on the left.

Tough to keep their story straight sometimes… ;-)

I hope I at least brought up a point to ponder for those who peruse this site and wish for better for the US.
Anyways, I gotta run for now.
You have yourself a good night, Sir.

It’s hard to disagree that we need some responsible leadership on our side as well, but frankly, I’m a bit worried that we will have the typical internicene warfare and that the blood-sucking press will use that against us.

I’m hoping against hope that our side will be smart and not cut each other to shreds in 2012. I doubt it will happen in 2010, because it will all be local elections. But 2012 could be ugly with Obamy’s blood in the water.

I’m also hoping that someone will rise up and take charge. I don’t see that person yet, but there is lots of time for it to happen. Every contender in the Repub field, unfortunately, is seriously flawed for one reaon or another. I’m embarrassed to say now that I was hoping that Mark Sanford would be the one. Go figger.

I also wish the top 10 people would go off together for a week to study each other’s pros and cons, and come together behind the two they think would have the best shot. That would require them to be Patriots instead of Politicians, so it’s probably a pipe-dream.

Since I don’t really expect a Reagen to stride into the field, so all I can say for sure is that ANYBODY who opposes Obamy in 2012, will have 1000% of my support, and all the effort and money I can scratch up.

To your point about leadership with staying power, I also can’t disagree with that. I just don’t want anybody to hold out hoping for a saint when one isn’t likely to emerge.

I’d vote for Ron Paul over the Moron. That’s how serious I am about it.

(ps….I’m half expecting someone from Talk Radio to take a shot in 2012. But I don’t see a winner on the national stage there either, and I worry it could hurt more than help. All of them are geniuses, but they have all also said many things that would be used against them. Someone has already asked Hannity about it, you know, and he didn’t reject it out of hand. The one who would probably have the best shot is a second tier guy….Hugh Hewitt, for the reason that his incendiary level is lower than the tier 1 guys and gal.)

But wouldn’t it make sense to be at least looking for some half-decent people to take the reins back in ’10 (or even ’12)?
From where I sit, no one seems to be even thinking about that. Taking the country back is important, no doubt. But isn’t keeping it equally important?

When you have a knife at your ribs and a gun to your head, take a slap in the face anytime.

Your question implies that the Criminal Cabal in the White House is just a couple of shades of red worse than the Republicans.

It’s a false premise.

The Obama-insky’s are a radical group of political criminals bent on destroying the country and ruling it as commissars.

To compare them to the bumbling Republicans is ludicrous. There IS no comparison.

I don’t care what kind of Keystone Kop McLame is, I’ll jump on his bandwagon, Newt’s bandwagon, Huckaby’s bandwagon, Sarah’s bandwagon, or Howdie Doodie’s bandwagon if one can get rolling.

We’ve all looked into the eye of the devil now, and there is no doubt what the fire looks like.

It would be dumb to quibble about details with people who are often stupid, and many are crooked……but there isn’t a Republican in Congress who I think want’s to replace the country with a Banana Republic Dictatorship.
