Many pundits are throwing in their two cents on what direction the Republican Party should take now that they have won mega wins in the House, state legislatures and gubernatorial seats across the nation, as well as depriving the Democrat party of a super majority in the Senate. Most of them, from liberal commentators to moderate Republicans opine that the two adversarial groups should meet somewhere in the middle. I for one do not agree.
Let me point out that the words “liberal commentators” means insanely fringe leftwing pundits, or just plain Marxists, and “moderate Republican” means Liberal. There is no such thing as a moderate. Moderates may actually be worse than either because they lack a fundamental moral foundation. They wait to see which way the wind is blowing before choosing sides, thus ensuring their own survival over our nation’s. These were the Joe Sestak’s, Blanche Lincoln’s, and Arlen Spector’s of the political landscape and we should be thanking our stars that they have been removed from it.
The Conservatives must press their advantage and make the most of this historic opportunity. Today’s Conservative Politician has many advantages over his predecessor of the Gingrich era, namely that mainstream news can no longer deceive so many. The once formidable print media, slanted almost exclusively to the far left, has been outflanked by conservative web sites and blogs. The ABC–CBS-NBC-CNN union of misinformation has been virtually destroyed by coverage at Fox News. I would include MSNBC, but their lineup of insane pundits like Olberrman, Maddow, Schultz and company has eliminated any and all credibility and made it the laughing stock de jure of networks. Liberals no longer have a monopoly on information. They do not get to decide on which stories to report and which to discard with the sole intention of misinforming the public to elicit a specific result or opinion. What’s more, web sites like You Tube have exposed the disingenuousness of the Liberal politician and have shown the American people that there are many who stand in solidarity against the corrupt-o-crats intent on transforming our country into yet another Marxist regime.
Liberalism is not something with which we may compromise. When we do so we allow Liberals to advance their agenda in incremental baby steps; we need to reverse course, not slow it down temporarily. A case in point would be “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” This policy allowed gays to serve in the military. It was a step toward allowing them to serve openly and not, as is commonly reported these days, a step designed to prevent them from serving. The UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice) was very clear on barring gays long before DADT. Another example would include “Hilary Care,” the attempt by the Democrats to foist socialized medicine upon the country in the 1990’s. Now we have Obamacare which is sure to put the private health insurance industry out of business in just a few more short years unless repealed.
Uncompromising conservatives are what Liberals fear the most. They know we can win if we but try. So the question is, what exactly should Republicans do? There should be no compromise. Compromise to us is a loss. If we want to win we must do everything in our power to stamp liberalism from our policies and liberals from government. Here are some recommendations:
1) Repeal Obamacare. There is no wiggle room here. It’s a bad piece of legislation that needs to be thrown to the ash heap.
2) Properly redistrict the voting precincts around the nation. Eliminate the gerrymandered districts that the Democrat party loves so much so that we can remove their ability to create safe and unfair districts for their party.
3) Cut spending. Across the board spending cuts need to be made. All entitlement programs should be eliminated, or phased out over time. This includes Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and too many welfare programs to mention. The role of the government is to secure our nation within and without, not to take care of people. That is the role of the people.
4) Lower taxes and reduce government bureaucracy. People are entitled to what they earn – nothing more and nothing less. Legal theft of a person’s money and goods, for any purpose whatsoever, is immoral and un-American.
5) Require voter identification for all Federal elections. We know that the Democrat Party does not like the idea specifically because it will remove or severely restrict the ability for people vote fraudulently. If it weren’t for rampant voter fraud by liberals, the 2000 election would not have come under scrutiny, Al Franken would not be a Minnesota Senator, and as of November 3, 2010, Minnesota would not be trying to figure out how it magically received 174,000 more votes than registered voters. Hennepin County, which includes the city of Minneapolis, originally reported 880,000 votes, even though only 706,000 are registered to vote there.
6) Require Union reforms and defund unions and all organizations hostile to conservative values. There is no reason to give them tax dollars, especially when they have hundreds of millions of dollars to donate to Democrat candidates. Universities that bar on-campus military recruiting should be defunded immediately.
7) Tackle immigration reform, i.e. combine agency databases to speed up the background check process. Deport all illegals, build the fence, and make the penalties for illegal immigration severe enough to discourage illegal immigrants and those who would hire them.
8) Tort reform!
9) Reform the public schools. Money is not the answer – discipline is. If students aren’t going to take advantage of their free education then they need to be expelled and left to succeed on their own. Eventually necessity will force them to come around.Make prison what it should be; punishment, not a reformatory.
10) Make prison what it should be; punishment, not a reformatory.
