Time for Introspection,
but Not Surrender

Creators Syndicate, by David Limbaugh

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 11/9/2012 12:04:48 PM

Has the nation gone irreversibly blue? Did intraparty disunity sabotage Mitt Romney's presidential quest? Or is there some other explanation for the nation's re-election of a president with the worst record in decades? I received an email from a brilliant conservative friend who wonders whether Republicans can ever win another election and thus whether the nation is forever lost. I ran into a college student at church the Sunday before the election, and despite his strong conservatism and high intelligence, he admitted confusion about the candidates' respective positions after the presidential debates. My first reaction after the

We have learned that new media, Rush - Fox News - Lucianne.com - Hot Air etc etc - as well as the wealth of popular, conservative books published under Obama's tragic reign - all this has no measurable effect upon an electorate dumbed-down beyond reach. In any appraisal moving forward, that should be lesson #1, despairing as it may be.

Since 1946, and fer shure, since 1960, the Public Schools of America, and practically all non-technical courses in most Colleges have thoroughly espoused the usual lines of Democrat-Socialist instruction, i.e., America is evil, America should feed all the world, give everything to everybody, profits are bad (except for MOC), ad infinitim, ad nauseum.

And as the Great One says, You Don’t Vote Against Santa Claus.

BUT, the Great One, and Fox News, and a very few others, have not only showed us what really went on in the Benghazi Affair, but unfortunately beat that theme to death.
No one on our side seems to realize that the Takers and Morons (forgive me, legitimate Medical Morons) not only couldn’t care less about Benghazi, but have not acquired nor want to acquire any idea as to what or where same is; as long as that check(s) arrives and the EBT Card(s) are recharged every month or ten days; forever and ever and ever, these will continue to vote for more of the same.
The Santa Complex rides on.
Even in Congress.

I see no way out until the Usual Suspects are unable to find any food in Wal-Mart nor in Publix, etc., and then decide to invade the Pantries belonging to the Makers and to You and to the Great One and, lastly, to the MOC and to SCOTUS and to Big Sis— at that point the fur will fly.
The United Socialist State of America will go under Martial Law and then under a Dictatorship, very possibly during Lord 0’s Third or Fourth Terms.....
Perhaps Comrade Putin will come to our rescue.

It really doesn't matter how the electorate votes when the Democrats have voter fraud perfected. I don't buy the numbers.

Mr. Limbaugh, the Party is already irrevocably splintered. We've held our nose for the last time. Mr. Romney may very well have turned out to be the greatest President who ever lived, but he was unfortunately not a great candidate. The combination of republican "leadership", a next man on the torem poll succession program, a take no prisoners in your approach to winning the Primary, but not the General election makes surrender seem like a reasonable approach. Sometimes the house has to be torn down to be rebuilt. That clearly is the case if the GOP is to recapture the conservative support again.

Day 3 without Limbaugh telling me the way things ought to be. It's refreshing.
Dave, how about you and Rush go try to run something besides your mouths.

I don't how much more Romney could have done as a candidate. He was clearly favored by a majority according almost all of the polls. I don't blame him.

I blame the corrupt media. They are the enemy, foreign and domestic.

Yes. I believe it has.

I'm only allowed to give a limited amount of money to any particular candidate. But if I were an entertainer, I could pretty much run hours-long commercials disguised as amusement. If I were a teacher, I could lecture my students, intimidate them, brainwash them and humiliate them for hours and hours and hours until they succumb. Put that together with a corrupt media and you've made toast.

Until these things change, we're never going to win. Young people eventually become old people, learn hard lessons and become conservative, but the supply of young people to vote democrat is endless.

WAKE UP Republicans! You can't even make a decent bumpersticker. THIS is how you're losing.

It's the sexy, stupid.

All we have to do is flip 5% of the voters. This can be done id we start education the uniformed on free market capitalism and the horrors of socialism. Time to move the discussion toward big themes and away from the petty.

Not time for surrender. Not time to contemplate our navels, either. It's time for fundamental political reorganization and restructuring. Time to stop listening to the know-it-all "experts" who have led us to this point.

So tell us, David - and others - what precisely must we do? Listen to the party Elites and be happy? It's clear the Elites do not want to listen to us - and they run the party. No, David. It's time to recognize our "irreconcilable differences" and dissolve the marriage. Its time for the conservative message to be unfiltered by the political know-it-all's. It may be a losing proposition in the short run, but it's our only hope in the long run. A house divided cannot stand. That includes the Republican party.

The Republican Party, and the USA, both died on November 6, 2012. It was a last stand for both, and we lost.

There are at least 11,000,000 illegals in this country (possibly double that) that will get citizenship before the 2014 congressional and gubinitorial elections. They will all vote Demon-RAT as ''thanks'' for that wonderful gift. That will automatically turn all red states blue.

Game over. Surrender complete. One party (lie-beral socialist Demon-RATS) with no checks or balances for whatever time this country has left.

They get their ''Socialist Paradise'' on the rotting corpse of the former USA. The rest of us get Hell on Earth and sad memories of the greatness this country once stood for.

And when that ''Socialist Paradise'' implodes under it's own weight, the only question is what language our new overseers will speak -- Spanish, Chinese or Arabic...

Boy Scouts Vote to End Ban on
Gay Scouts; Gay Adults Still
Barred From Leadership Roles
ABC News, by Susan Donaldson James    Original Article
Posted By: KarenJ1- 5/23/2013 6:38:28 PM     Post Reply
The Boy Scouts of America today voted to lift its longtime ban on admitting gay Scouts but will continue to exclude openly gay adults from leadership roles. The vote by its 1,400 national membership came as no surprise to gay rights advocates, who hailed it as a first step to ending discriminatory practices in the 103-year-old organization. The ruling by secret ballot at a national convention in Dallas means that mothers like Jennifer Tyrrell, who is a lesbian, will still be excluded from the Boy Scouts.

Although White House Chief Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler claims to have learned about the IRS audit scandal only last month, she had three unprecedented one-on-one meetings last year with the Treasury Department’s chief lawyer, who has known about the inspector general’s investigation of the Internal Revenue Service’s targeting of conservative nonprofits since at least June 2012. The Treasury lawyer in turn has a long history of extreme left-wing agitation. Christopher J. Meade, Treasury Chief Counsel, met with Ruemmler on September 27th, December 11th, and December 13th, 2012, according to White House Visitor Records requests.

The full text of President Obama´s "Future of our Fight against Terrorism" address, as prepared for delivery: It’s an honor to return to the National Defense University. Here, at Fort McNair, Americans have served in uniform since 1791– standing guard in the early days of the Republic, and contemplating the future of warfare here in the 21st century. For over two centuries, the United States has been bound together by founding documents that defined who we are as Americans, and served as our compass through every type of change. Matters of war and peace are no different.

brutal London killing

President Barack Obama condemned “in the strongest terms the appalling attack" that killed an off-duty British soldier in a London suburb. “There can be absolutely no justification for such acts, and our thoughts and prayers are with the family of the victim, the police and security services responding to this horrific act and the communities they serve, and the British people,” Obama said in a statement the White House released Thursday. Obama also reaffirmed the “special relationship” between the United States and the United Kingdom.

President Obama is using his national security address today to reject the "Global War on Terror." "Beyond Afghanistan, we must define our effort not as a boundless ‘global war on terror’ – but rather as a series of persistent, targeted efforts to dismantle specific networks of violent extremists that threaten America. In many cases, this will involve partnerships with other countries. Thousands of Pakistani soldiers have lost their lives fighting extremists. In Yemen, we are supporting security forces that have reclaimed territory

President Barack Obama knows the dangers of not going far enough or fast enough to stop the climate crisis. History will celebrate his decision to lead us toward a clean energy economy that solves climate change and creates long-term, sustainable jobs for Americans. But achieving this awesome goal requires that we reject the TransCanada Corp.’s proposal to build the Keystone XL pipeline, which would cut through the heartland of America. This is a simple decision for a president who supports protecting our climate and creating jobs. Returning our economy to stable growth requires Americans to

What does a murderous jihadist terrorist have to do to get some recognition for his cause? You hack a British soldier to death in broad daylight on a London street while shouting “Allahu akbar” and then “swear by the almighty Allah” that you’ll never stop fighting, and the U.S. broadcast networks still can’t bring themselves to utter a word about Islam. True, the ABC CBS and NBC evening broadcasts called the attack “terrorism,” but for all the information they gave viewers, the attackers might have been Basque separatists or animal rights zealots.

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner, whose career in public life came to an abrupt end when he sent lewd pictures to a college student on Twitter, jumped back into politics on Wednesday by announcing a bid for mayor of New York City. “Look, I’ve made some big mistakes and I know I’ve let a lot of people down,” the Democrat said in a 2-minute video announcing his bid. “But I’ve also learned some tough lessons. I’m running for mayor because I’ve been fighting for the middle class and those struggling to make it for my entire life.

   

 



 
A Crack in the IRS Dam

Power Line, by John Hinderaker    Original Article

The dam protecting the IRS scandal began to crack today when Lois Lerner, the IRS official who announced, and apologized for, the improper singling out of conservative-leaning organizations by IRS employees under her command, announced through her criminal defense lawyer that she will not testify as scheduled tomorrow before the House Oversight Committee. Rather, she will assert her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This marks an enormous milestone in the IRS investigation. It can now be taken as more or less established that crimes were committed by Obama administration employees. Lerner’s lawyer tried to minimize the significance

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said embattled IRS official Lois Lerner waived her Fifth Amendment rights and will be hauled back to appear before his panel again. The California Republican said Lerner’s Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination was voided when she gave an opening statement this morning denying any wrongdoing and professing pride in her government service. “When I asked her her questions from the very beginning, I did so so she could assert her rights prior to any statement,” Issa told POLITICO. “She chose not to do so — so she waived.”
