Look, the economy is tanking in a big way and government is proping it up at this moment. Russia’s going back to its Cold War ways, and China’s doing something with all those fly overs towards Japan and military defense increases regardless of whether it is defensive or offensive leads you scratching your head saying, “What are we in for?” Then there’s Iran and nuclear weapons which I see no Global Community seriously interested in deterring. Democrats whether in the Congress or White House, or State Legislatures are pumping for higher taxes in a BIG WAY. Oil pricings are beyond my comprehension. Things are gonna get ugly before they get better no matter what. I want that rested squarely on the “Cause” of this “Effect”, not pawned on US as it has been done so many times before.

There is an interesting attempt to start exactly what you are talking about. Go to the following link and see if you like what you see. Complete with an opportunity to start State Chapters.

Another reason to hate huckabee

It sounds like you have as bad a case of HDS as Allahpundit has.

Not to float a conspiracy theory, but — the RNC does in fact appear to be deliberately ignoring several opportunities to run candidates.

Could it be that George Soros is influencing not only John McCain but also the RNC?

Huckabee quotes scripture to back up his socially liberal ideology.

Please enlighten me as to what about Mike Huckabee’s stand on the issues is “socially liberal”. His stand is the most socially conservative I have seen from any candidate in my lifetime, including Reagan. You just don’t like him or trust him. You refuse to forgive anything he might have done wrong in your eyes while he was governor of a state that was 90% Democrat.

How very Christian of you.

Now that sounds crazy but — fact is lots of Washington insiders might be just happy to be a minority party again, like they were back in the 70′s. Because — they get all the perks, but no blame and no responsibility, and they don’t actually have to do any work at all.

Congressman Boozman resides in one of the most criminally corrupt regions in the U.S., home of Tyson’s, Walton’s, etc. , the magnets for tens of thousands of illegal Mexicans and OTM’s, and is the illegal Mexican drug distribution center for a large part of this nation. Of equal importance are the proliferation of violent gangs, i.e. MS 13, Los Zetas and others, and the reintroduction of pathogenic diseases e.g. TB and Leprosy covered up by the Arkansas Health Department. Other than a few made for media sound bites by Boozman, he has done nothing to stem this major invasion which attacks national and individual sovereignty. Example, Fort Smith Times Record headline “Boozman takes hard-line stance on illegal immigration”. When? Where?

It should be noted here that Tyson’s CEO Dick Bond and Tyson’s PAC have contributed $18,000 to Boozman, along with the Vice-Chair of Wal-Mart John Menzer who has given $50,500. A few other donors, Arvest Bank owned by the Walton’s, John Tyson, Jim Walton, etc., etc. Where do you think Congressman Boozman’s allegiances lie?

I’m going to start up a Conservative org here soon to try to get more Conservatives elected in this stupid state. I’m originally from PA.

I’m in Bentonville. Contact me, please. My crosshairs are set on Lincoln already.

Beyond the generic complaint of the GOP throwing this election, the degradation of the GOP itself, and some of the subsidiary problems that accompany that, e.g. me-tooism, a greater ability of the Dems to cater to the unappeasable left, etc…

I mean, why is it bad that one of the more conservative members of the U.S. Senate is going to be re-elected? This isn’t Pryor pere, i.e. eighty percent ADA rating, not someone who you’d generally support as a registered Republican.

Granted, I dislike the idea of noncompetitive elections as much as the next person-based on general principle- but I don’t see why this particular story should rouse my ire.

Can we stop pretending that this is a serious political party?

And can the RNC please stop calling and asking for money?

Ensign, IIRC.

Trust me, by November you’ll be pining for the days of Liddy Dole as NRSC chairman.

As I said back in January, RIP GOP

note: nothing wrong with being white, idk why i threw that in there.

bunch of old country clubbers!!!
