Why I left the Republican Party. And why it’s turned into nothing more than a bunch of Statist Loving Socialists. Stop Calling Yourselves Conservatives!!!
Huckabee, Lieberman Have Highest Favorables among Possible McCain Veep Choices
But a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that the two possible Republican running mates with the highest favorable ratings among voters – Mike Huckabee and Joseph Lieberman — are not even on most of the short lists currently being discussed.
Let’s take on Former Gov. Mike Huckabee first. He’s funny, charming, and “speaks for the little guy”. On the other hand, he’s for more Government. He would love to see a National Ban on Cigarettes, he would love to see the complete Federal takeover of Education, He’s for more War (not very Christian) and of course he’s for protecting “Our friend and Alley” Israel.(He is part of the Amen Corner) Oh, and apparently he’s for the “Fair Tax”. For a definition of the “Fair Tax”, look up Oxy-Moron. Because there is nothing Fair about any Tax.
Now for Sen. Joe Lieberman. He’s for abortion. He’s for more taxes. He’s for more Government. He’s for just about everything So-Called Conservatives profess to be against. But, the Amen Corner seems to love him. Because!? He’s for protecting our “Friend and Alley” Israel. Sen. Lieberman and the Amen Corner seem to mistake Tel Aviv for the Capital of the United States.
This poll just goes to show how left-ward the Republican Party has gone. Or what I’ve said before , “The Continuing Intellectual Bankruptcy of the So-Called Conservative Movement.” (I really need to trade mark that phrase). When So-Called Conservatives are wanting to see, not just one (Sen. McAmnesty) but two Big Government Bureaucrats running the White House again, something is wrong.
Do Real Conservatives have a choice in this charade we call “The Presidential Election”? In my eyes, we have two choices. Bob Barr, and Chuck Baldwin. But then again, most of my comrades will either stay home, or hold their noses and vote for Sen. McAmnesty. Because “Party Loyalty” is more important than principle.
Again, for the sake of us who believe in Limited Government, Entangling Alliances to None, Low to No Taxes, and putting America, First, Last and Always…Please stop calling yourselves Conservatives.
I find it very sad when some people support Mike Huckabee. We, are talking about a man who does not support the law of the land and even confirmed this during the Dearborn, MI GOP debate. He has lied to his supporters about being pro life when he signed of on spending bills to support abortion while gov.
The people are failing citizen oversight and my fellow christians are clueless.
Darel, I know how you feel. As a Catholic, I see Speaker Polisi prouncing around saying shes a “Italian Catholic Grandmother”, all the while wanting to see more abortions, and bows down to the Israeli Lobby when they want more War. Hell most of the New England Democrats in Congress are Catholic. The most disgusting bunch of Socialists we’ve seen since F.D.R’s days.
Thanks for stoping by my friend. Please come back again soon.
Tax reform is, and will always be, the most important issue in every federal, state and local election we have until income taxes are eliminated once and for all. Income taxes are wrong. I don’t care what anyone says, there is no excuse for them. As long as Congress has the power to take from us however much of our incomes it wants without our permission or approval, it need not ever listen to our concerns or respect our rights, and we will never have enough power to keep it in check. If you refuse to pay income taxes because you don’t support Congress, they just send their gestapo to come and arrest you. If they resist arrest, the gestapo is free to cripple or kill you. No sane person can call the America we have today a free country with a straight face.
Sales tax is the only exceptable type of tax. That’s why I support the Fair Tax with every fiber of my being. The only candidates I will ever consider voting for this November and beyond will be those who support the Fair Tax. All other issues are insignificant until this one issue is fixed.
Night Fly…I agree that Taxes are theift. No doubt about it. There is no excuse for the Almighty Government to steal money out of my paycheck. None, what so ever.
Now for the “Fair Tax”, I’m still not sold on it. I’ve read Boortz’s books, and it sounds all good and dandy. But, the Government could say “well we are in a “crisis” now, and we need to raise the tax”. So they raise it from the 12% to 15%. And we all know Government doesn’t like to lower things. That’s my disagrement with it.
Now, if we are going to have a tax, I would be ok with what Ludvig von Mises proposed. It would be a “Vlat Tax” and it would only be 1% on all goods and services. And it would never go up. Government would be foreced to live within their Constitutional means.
We can only dream.
Latter-day Saints and other conservatives of the Religious Right need to support the true Conservative, Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party!
