When was the last time you heard a single Republican leader use the word “liberty?” And yet liberty is what is under assault everywhere. It’s attacked by the EPA. By the TSA. By Homeland. By the war on drugs. By taxation. Confiscation. By this President. But all the GOP talks about is jobs and tax cuts! Nobody cares!
…
This is why we lose. It is not because the American people are leaning left. It is not because we have lost the argument.. we haven’t even given the argument. The Republican aren’t even fighting.

When your leader has an easier time publicly engaging in weepy sentimental moments than he does in publicly speaking the words “liberty or tyranny” you know you are screwed.

Now that is the truth!!

Great post!!

Is anyone really surprised?

Don’t be squishy on this gop…..FIGHT

They wont fight. They are corrupt, useless, comfortable, self serving, affable trash.

If necessary, and surely there is at least one congresscritter out there who can figure a way to do an end-run around Holder and his Obama Gestapo, subpoena her and make her testify.

Don’t fall for the typical administration stone-walling. Drag her imperial fat ash into the hearings, at gunpoint if necessary, and make her swear to tell the truth in public upon pain of imprisonment.

These turkeys are making a mockery of our Constitution and laws, and there is no excuse for letting this go on any longer.

Does anyone really think we will ever get this administration to be responsible for anything? I don’t.

Deano1952 on December 14, 2012 at 9:02 AM

All we have is Fox news and the internet. Ok, talk radio. But what else? The press? Ha! What a joke!

MSNBC is nothing but pure propaganda now. Heck.. I never thought I’d live to see the day when Pravda was more trusted then our own mainstream media.

We’ve got celebrities calling for Obama to imprison his opposition. We’ve got outright violence being threatened against whites and conservatives in front of applauding audiences.. and actual violence being done against conservatives publicly on camera and the media blacks it out. Does anyone really think they’d have any conflicts with blacking out a whole host of other things Obama might choose to do one day soon?
Obama is so bold and so confident he can say or do anything that he invites a man to the WH who has publicly ranted on a stage about killing American soldiers and their families.. he invites this guy to a WH party and shakes his hand. Why? Because he can! The media isn’t going to call him out. Boehner isn’t.

Obama can give a press conference on hurricane Sandy and mockingly state “We leave no man behind” just weeks after our ambassador is dragged out onto the streets and killed in Benghazi.
Why would he say that? Because he can. The media isn’t going to say anything. Boehenr isn’t.

Does anyone really think we will ever get this administration to be responsible for anything? I don’t.

…aren’t you glad that the government media is absent on all of this?

Cat’s out of the bag and it isn’t ever coming back.

Every police agency in America is looking at using drones, and some big cities already have them. Couple that with the recent authorization for the feds to access pretty much all data and we have a nice little tidal wave coming toward us.

Bishop on December 14, 2012 at 9:44 AM

And lets not forget.. there’s been so much it’s easy to. But remember when the census workers were taking GPS co-ordinates of every house in America in 2009?

Now we know why. Drones. Drones can have missiles. Missiles need co-ordinates.

Oh that explosion in the neighborhood? Must have been a gas leak.

It is all her fault, the lax security, the PC attitudes about how to treat islamist jihadist, and blaming The Video. She cut foolish ads to play in third world places telling people the US did not make that video.

Let’s get it on the record. No pass for Sec. Clinton.

Obama Administration cover up? Here’s an interesting article that sounds very plausible.

iamsaved on December 14, 2012 at 9:49 AM

I was just going to link that, you beat me to it. Sounded plausible to me as well. It’s long but worth the read.

WSJ ran an editorial the other day on “who speaks for the GOP?” In normal times, it would be a combination of Party Chairman Preibus, Senate Minority Leader McConnell, and Speaker of the House Boehner. These are the GOP leaders; these are the apices of the GOP power structure; these are the ones who should coordinate the party; these are the ones who should define and coordinate the political battles.

These are a bunch of kittens with balls of yarn.

Hillary will not testify in any meaningful way, and there will be no consequences to that. Yawn.

Bishop on December 14, 2012 at 9:44 AM

And that recent authorization (by none other than Eric Holder) is just hideous and Congress MUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Or else wear Holder’s reputation themselves (both parties, all of COngress).

Lest anyone not (yet) know what Bishop and I are are referring to…

I don’t, either.

We have a tired lot on the Right, people in the GOP in office all seem to be working-tired, like they’re resigned to just.being.tired.

I am not so much blaming the GOP/Right as I am describing the circumstances we are in. Obama and his lot have given “arch wrongdoers” a new low and they’re running amok like they are because there’s nothing and no one to restrain or stop them. I don’t know that anyone can, meaning, it’s not something civilized people ever anticipated would need to be done: a President and Administration who would behave as Obama and his Lot have and are: running amok and laughing about it without regard for restraints (i.e., limits on them by Constitution, job limitations).

Lourdes on December 14, 2012 at 9:10 AM

They are tired because they work so hard at avoiding the real fight.
They refuse to do and say what really needs to be said and done and as a result.. lose. So their efforts come to nothing. When the regime calls them murderers and baby killers.. the GOP responds how? They respond by saying “We just want the President to lead. We’re waiting to work with the President. He’s a nice guy. Look at my chart.”

This whole fiscal cliff fiasco. The GOP just keep talking spending and numbers. Yeah, whatever. While Obama and the Democrats accuse them of destroying the nation and killing old people the Democrats are actually doing it.

The economy is a symptom. The unemployment numbers are a symptom. Benghazi is a symptom. The GOP wants to focus on the symptoms and ignore the root causes. The root is the Democrat party is a socialist/fascist party with the goal if totally destroying our liberty and freedom and changing American into a dictatorship or something like it! But the GOP runs from that argument! It embarrasses them!

When was the last time you heard a single Republican leader use the word “liberty?” And yet liberty is what is under assault everywhere. It’s attacked by the EPA. By the TSA. By Homeland. By the war on drugs. By taxation. Confiscation. By this President. But all the GOP talks about is jobs and tax cuts! Nobody cares!

But the truth? Exposing the truth? Yes.. that’s a different story! The truth is the enemy of the lie! The truth is a powerful weapon when used the right way. Reagan knew this. He used the truth with passion and conviction and won in landslide. The Democrats were always responding to him! Reagan won in s landslides before there was a Fox news, or youtube or talk radio!
I still remember the day after the election, when Reagan won in a 48 state landslide.. Tip ONeail, Democrat speaker of the House responded by saying “It’s not a mandate!” How did Boehner respond? ObamaCare is the law of the land and Republicans need to fall in line!”

This is why we lose. It is not because the American people are leaning left. It is not because we have lost the argument.. we haven’t even given the argument. The Republican aren’t even fighting.

When your leader has an easier time publicly engaging in weepy sentimental moments than he does in publicly speaking the words “liberty or tyranny” you know you are screwed.

Enough with the hyperbole, it’s not as if Bark has authorized himself to approve hits on American citizens whenever he deems it necessary. -_-

Bishop on December 14, 2012 at 9:33 AM

Kinda’ strange you wrote that, when I was just sitting here listening to a plane fly overhead and thinking about drones deployed in the U.S….

…having just watched the latest BOURNE series film where the safety-house for the U.S. guys gets blown up by a U.S. deployed drone…

Seriously, I actually paused to wonder about the sound overhead. :o

The news that State may refuse to share the ARB conclusions should give the House committee an opening to start issuing subpoenas to put its own investigation into high gear. They can start by subpoenaing the ARB and its report

So who else can they issue subpoenas for? Gen. Ham? the CIA survivors who got out of the compound at Benghazi? Fox News, IIRC, talked to the person who supposedly debriefed those people…can they subpoena him/her? Has anyone ever been able to interview the Turkish Ambassador who got in and out of the compound without problems? What about the report of the British national who supposedly left the compound right before it was attacked (to buy phone cards)…is this true, and has anyone talked to him? In other words…is there any way possible to get around any claim of executive privilege that may be coming?
