I vaguely remember when both parties agreed that politics stops at the waters edge. A Republican, Arthur Vandenberg, said this during a Democratic Administration – Harry Truman’s.

Just as Senator Vanderburgh saw the need for a united policy, it is time again for the Republican Party to lead us back to sanity.

We need to work at the local and state level to elect truly conservative Republicans. At the same time, we need to distance ourselves from the Rush Limbaughs of this world. I was truly offended when my party invited Limbaugh to give a keynote address. As a regular contributor to the RNC, I have stopped all contributions and asked that I be taken off their mailing lists. The only exception if Marco Rubio, who has been endorsed by Jeb Bush in his caducity for the US Senate.

For all of you – both liberal and conservative – we need to learn to work together for the future of our country. I do not want us to wind up as another ‘banana republic’ where the first task of the new regime to to kill the members of the old regime whether physically or through the media.
Yea, Those words were spoken alot during the last 8 years...how did that work out for us? Problem with GOP is they let the media and democrats walk all over them. Bush never fought back...The best defense is an offense. The dems already got that figured out. They have been aggressive while while the GOP whines like a little school girl on the playground.
People, you need to get your head out of your collective asses. The GOP had at least 6 years of passive control. How did that work out for us? Look what the democrats have done the last 4 months. Wake up people. We need to get mad and fight aggressively. There was so many things the GOP could have done. The oppurtunities are all gone now.
We need more people like Rush...not people who vote and go alonng with the democrats like the traitor Powell.
I got some news for you all...maturity does not win wars...strength and strategy wins wars.
OK...Rant over...Back to the regularly scheduled poster.....

Keedy PS. If you don't think we are at war...you haven't been paying attention. The progressives have been at war with the fabric of our society. Religion, freedom of speech (conservatives get shouted down at major Universities) Big government, massive taxes, political correctness etc.,etc.
