Glenn: Establishment GOP is over

Anonymous

I’ve heard a lot of talk – post election – that the GOP should cater more to the minorities – I guess the new thinking is – if you can’t beat-em join-em….when what is needed most, is a candidate who is not afraid to speak his mind – Romney tried playing it safe…not mentioning Benghazi and other important subjects. His first debate should have been followed by a second, and just as much or more potent as was the first. The final debate should have been a knockout punch. We need a candidate who is not afraid to stand up and fight for conservative principles.

Sandie

That’s right – we should not keep slowly moving in their direction – they need to move in ours. We need a candidate who will campaign on bringing them up to middle class level not bringing the middle class down to their level, which is what Obama’s policies do, regardless of his claims.

  When little girls tell their third-grade teacher, “My mommy say’s,’We can’t vote for Romney because he’ll take away our food-stamps'” something is very wrong.
  
  That one idea alone, should be enough to get the GOP motivated, in reaching out and proclaim a positive message of the life changing benefits that Capitalism has to offer.
  - Sandie
    
    Obama ran a dirty Chicago-Politics campaign. Early on they started by defining and attacking Romney; vilifying him and lying about him, while constantly misdirecting from his faults and his own incompetence and inept leadership. They made false claims about how no middle income people had or would have their taxes raised, lied about Al Queda being weakened, about Benghazi and a multitude of other things. Romney should have done much more with exposing Obama for the corruption he orchestrated and his outright lies.
    - SoThere
      
      Obama had the Media to deflect from his faults and hide his complacency in matters that were critical to the American people. No one was going to defeat Obama in the past election. The propagandists saw to that.
      
      When you have non stop campaigning for 4 years, the media to do your dirty work and look the other way, combined with a “stupid” electorate, the results were a foregone conclusion.
      
      The further dismantling of our freedoms will accelerate until the people in this country stand up and say “Enough”.
      
      That usually happens when the IRS comes knocking on the door and that’s just around the corner. Someone has to pay for the free stuff, Pelosi and Reid aren’t going to.
      
      Remember the USSR, it came crashing down in a matter of months? It was a strong government, brutal in it’s tactics and it came down like a house of cards. Children yet to be born will suffer because of the policies of this government and the peoples complacency all because of free stuff. Why do you think that the Liberals push abortions on the blacks and the poor in this nation? They have enough poor people to vote them in but too many poor usually end up starting revolutions. A fact born out by the history of man.
      
      I’ll sit back and watch. Obama has already shown his hand when it comes to protecting the American people and Bin Laden was only a campaign move. Nothing more. Al Qaeda is already in the White House and they fit right in with the Marxists.
    - Sandie
      
      SoThere, you are right on the mark. Funny how Obama is advertised be the leftist media as saying how he will work with the Republicans and entertain new ideas, but then in the same breath shows his lie by saying he will not tolerate anything that is not “balanced”. …. ie ; same old same old. How stupid can the public be to swallow this crap? They only listen to the first part of his sentences? I guess when people say he got the ‘stupid’ vote, he surely did! He lies saying he has a ‘mandate’ from the majority of the American people to do his deal just because he won the election … and fools these ‘stupid’ people because they can’t think past his words to see that those people who voted for him were not only far fewer than who voted for him first term because the others were so disilussioned with him and couldn’t bring themselves to vote for him, but that they were certainly not the majority of the voting age population. Just another lie, more Obama propaganda.
      
      When the gimmes who voted to keep him to assure their continued handouts can’t get them anymore because there are no more cookies in the cookie jar start to revolt, then maybe he will finally get it. I hope then he gets ideas conjured up in his head about Quadaffi and others and what happened to them.

      So true. It must be, many on the left are totally illiterate – Obama is an easy book to read…unless of course, they prefer fiction, that may explain it.

      I contend that fiction is Obama’s book!

Romney can’t fight for Conservative principals because he
is not a Conservative!

All we will be doing if we “move towards them”, at the expense of the principles we know to be good and true, is establishing a political-connection-driven society that looks a lot like what they left behind in their respective Old Countries. We would be doing them a disservice if we did that … expanding the disservice the Progressives have done, with their encouragement of ordinary people, to outsource their initiative and responsibility to the DC elite.

Maybe HOW we say it could use some refinement, but WHAT we are saying transcends culture and ethnicity in its applicability and wisdom. We should not dump the WHAT, in order to get some votes.

  I was listening to “the great one” – (Mark Levin) last night and a third grade teacher called into his show with an interesting story – she told of a young child attending one of her classes, speaking up before the past election, saying, “My mommy say’s we can’t vote for Romney because he’ll take away our food-stamps”
  
  That innocent statement, coming from the mouth of a babe, should become the battle-cry of – HOW….we conservatives must find a way to break through the destructive thinking of the left, which encourages dependency and instead, build confidence in those of us less fortunate. Real HOPE and CHANGE comes from self respect and missions accomplished….not from going to bed hungry.

    Folks, this is why people are getting sick & tired of the two parties. We have cortney saying the left invades wombs by giving abortions, and we have macione saying the right invades wombs by not giving abortions. Meanwhile, our constitution is under attack by enemies from the inside. But lets only worry about abortions. Distractions from real issuses.

  So it wasn’t Romney after all, who’s waging a war on women.
  - XenaWP80
    
    LOL…no. The fake war on woman is a progressive propaganda ploy to bamboozle uninformed single woman. AND IT WORKED!! The progressives know that the majority of people are too busy with their day to day lives to pay attention to the goings on in the world, and they used that to their advantage. The war on woman was a catchy slogan that the single woman could remember in the voting booth. The progressives should feel ashamed of themselves for using woman. And I’m ashamed that woman were stupid enough to be used.

      Yesterday, throughout Pakistan, many celebrated Malala Day. Remember she was the 14 year old girl who was ruthlessly shot in the head by the Taliban, for supporting – not birth-control – not same-sex marriage – not abortion – not running for political office – not equal pay – no…… but for the simplest of basic rights for all humans – education for girls. This young girl represents a cataclysmic change from the statuesque and this young soldier represents a real threat. So in order to carry-on with – business as usual – the war on women continues.
      
      How many women here in the States (especially on the left) even knew about Malala Day.
    - XenaWP80
      
      Exactly! Thank you! When I first heard this nonsence ‘war on woman’ I was so insulted and filled with anger that the progressives would dare use & lie to woman to further their propaganda. To actually tell American woman that there 2nd class citizens…..I heard a progressive woman say that on O’Reilly. Do the American people not have better perspective when it comes to seeing how woman are suffering in other countries that DONT have a constitution to protect them? Thats why I’m so insulted, because I can’t help but to think about all the woman and younge girls, dying under oppression, in places like the ME, Africa, China, NKorea, Russia ect ect, and all the other countries where a woman has no choice, because of their society & culture, to be anything but a wife and have has many children has possible for their cheating husdand. IT IS THEY – NOT US AMERICANS THAT ARE OPPRESSED!! We have a choice in our lives to live has we want. Other woman in other countries dont. I wonder what Malala would say to that progressive woman, claiming to have it so hard in America. She cant say anything now.
    - XenaWP80
      
      I should also explain why this fake war on woman angers me so. In Africa younge girls suffer through female circimcision, rape is used as a weapon against woman (their husdands disown them for being raped, and throw them & the children out on their own), their breast are cut off so they can no longer feed there babies. In the middle east, woman are killed simply for looking at a man that is not their relative. And you, progressive woman, have the nerve to tell me, an American woman, that Im oppresed because other people dont want to pay for my birth control & abortion??? Screw you, progressives & your lies. You care not for woman, only your agenda.

      Its a shame that more women here in the States don’t use/have the same logic as you do. Come on, do the progressives really believe any of the nonsense that was dangled as bait, just to buy their vote.
      
      Well it worked…and now, the progressives can roar all the louder. If anything, I think there is an ongoing movement to silence men…especially white males, here in the States. But, one dare not bring up that subject, because he’d be a brute or at least… a He-Man-Woman-Hater. So many males simply comply and go along, as women increasingly take on the traditional male roles. Such as breadwinner, head of the family, political ambition etc. This nation has been so feminized these past few decades, its hard not to notice, so what a slap in the face, this so-called war on women was, not only for the women among us, but also the men.

Glenn the old paradigms of Washington are long done, they shattered in 2008, and once again were sundered in 2010. The mainstream party of Republicanism is indeed dead, just as the Democratic party is the home of godless fanatics among the leaders.

Right now the conservative movements, grass roots and all who are true to the American ideals and way of life are facing the greatest challenge and greatest opportunity. For in the defeat and sundering of the Republicans Old Guard, as with the Whigs, we have the opportunity to become something greater than ever before.

Look at history people, this is our time and our place to take the next moves forward and with the guidance of God, become what we wish to be: A free people who will stand up against the tyranny growing about us, rebuild the dream and ideals that are America and press forward.

Elizabeth Bracy

What about getting someone more “charismatic”, if you will, like Marco Rubio? I thought he would have been a great choice.

http://www.artinphoenix.com/gallery/grimm snowleopard (cat folk gallery)

Elizabeth, its more than just finding a charismatic leader, which Rubio is; we have to find one who can unite a diverse and fragmented community of conservatives in addition to seeking out the conservative democrats (Reagan Democrats) who are out there in hiding from the fanatic insanity of their parties leadership.

Understand, the next President who follows the conservative path will be challenged by the lunatic DNC leadership, and the RNC extremists of the old guard who are desperate to hold onto power in the party.

This is the chance for American conservatism, such as occurred with the Tea Party movement, from the ground up, to become better, stronger and push back harder against the insanity of the communist in the White House.

We have to rebuild and restore: beginning with ourselves, our families, our community and on that solid foundation (part of which is already built) on the state and national levels.

  there will not ever be a conservative president – the country doesn’t want one. Money grows on trees – more likely just picked (printed) out of thin air. Money creates jobs – just look at Solyndra and company.
  
  As long as women remain in the public workforce – rather than the home workforce – there are no families. Schools are the proof that kids are just byblow’s of sexual intercourse – they begin the government run education as little as three months after popping out. parents are NEVER there for them, except to run them from one game to another. And too tired to pay much attention to what they are doing on their own. so we have condoms and birth control pills handed out to 8th graders – although in most every state it’s against the law, even to have consensual sex before 16. Homosexuality if fine – until it is forced on you.
  
  We have set ourselves up to fail – and we are failing.

Love of Country

I agree 100% w/ you Elizabeth …. Rubio is charismatic and brilliantly conservative!

Please allow me to repost a comment I made this morning on another site …..

I’ve been a diehard Rubio fan since 2010. And did you hear O’Reilly tonight? He was saying well of course in hindsight Rubio was better than Ryan. Hindsight, O’Reilly? O’Really? Give me a frickin’ break! Did you overlook Hannity (and many others) begging for Rubio for 12 months, you fool? He’s got the life story, the charisma, Florida and the minority vote just to name a few attributes.

And I don’t know how much George Soros paid Hannity, O’Reilly and presumably Limbaugh to go four entire years without ever mentioning that the Bush tax cuts led to ending a recession, growing the economy for a record 52 months straight and adding 8.3 million new jobs between 2001 and 2007 but that’s exactly what happened. I can’t count how many times a goofy DNC strategist on Hannity’s show told Sean and his national audience that Dinglebarry had just grown jobs for 30 straight months or whatever and all Sean had to do was to say well W actually grew jobs for 52 months straight and everything was going fine until Pelosi and Reid took over congress in ’06 followed by the collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac due to bogus sub-prime lending laws passed by the Dems ie Franks, Dodd and Meeks etc, etc but he NEVER did!

Behind the scenes, Dems must be saying to themselves “How did we just go four entire years w/o the Republicans ever once reminding the public how well the economy was for six long years in the Bush Administration even though we kept saying over and over again that W spent 8 years ruining the economy?”.

My point is that Romney was never able to get proper traction with the economy because the masses believed the DNC talking points that he was just going to return to the same policies that “ruined the economy”. And Dems kept saying because the GOP deregulated the economy that it collapsed when in fact it collapsed because the Dems wouldn’t allow the GOP to regulate Fannie and Freddie. Unfrickenbelievable!

Marco Rubio for President 2016!

  Wow, a person who finally speaks truth to power! Follow the facts:
  
  The GOP–every last one of them–ALLOWED the Dems to blame Bush & the GOP for collapsing the economy. Shocking that NEVER ONCE in 4 years did anyone refute this false attack with FACTS.
  
  Dems Carter-Clinton: Clinton expanded Carter’s Community Re-development Act to require that ‘every person was entitled to live in their own house.’ Voila, no document, no down payment mortgages created. Voila, banks forced to make risky, sub-prime mortgages in required numbers or be penalized by DC.
  
  Dem Clinton: Unable to hold risky, sub-prime mortgages on their books, banks sold them to Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac. They didn’t want the toxic loans either. Voila, F & F bundled them & sold them as investments to Wall St. passing them off to institutional, individual & mutual fund investors. As toxic adjustable loans came due after 5 – 10 yrs, these “investments” had defaulted in unprecedented numbers.
  
  George Bush 2 terms: Bush & the GOP begged & pleaded before Congress numerous times for investigation of Fannie & Freddie. Dem Barney Frank’s House Finance & Banking Committee refused, refused, refused. Committee approval necessary to get bill on the floor.
  
  Obama elected 2008. As often as Obama harped on Bush for the economy he inherited, why didn’t the GOP deliver the facts in response?
  
  Sen Marco Rubio is indeed a charismatic, rising star in the GOP! Yet, I question a presidential candidacy at his age & with his experience. Very significant is the fact that being Cuban doesn’t necessarily open doors for the GOP into the Hispanic community. Cubans have had special expedited passage as political exiles–not shared with any other Hispanic group. The Cuban experience is unique. I question whether an Hispanic candidate is required? For the most part, Latinos are hard working, religious, have conservative social values, focus on family, all the commonalities of a Republican conservative . . . .

  Love of Country you made some very good points here about W. He got us out of the Dot-com Bubble and dealt with 911 and still kept us in much better shape than Obama through most of his terms as President. He did get us into the wars that he did at least get an OK from Congress and the UN for, but he should have known that there were no WMD’s and that we would own the mess in those countries after going in. The real crash of the Financial Crisis and Housing Bubble were not all Bush’s fault, in fact he did try to investigate Fannie and Freddie before 06 when Republicans controlled both the Congress and Senate but didn’t have a Filibuster proof Senate and the Dems in the Senate were able to stop him. There is no question in my mind the 06 Democrat control of both Houses was a major downturn for Bush and the Country.
  
  I do feel he should have pursued Fannie and Freddie “much more” than he did but because of the wars he lost his political clout to get it done. Bush really went off the tracks with TARP and all the Government bailouts giving Obama tremendous cover for his relentless Marxist push.
  
  So Conservatives need to learn from Bush’s mistakes and the GOP must become a more inclusive Party. I do like Marko Rubio and he may be a good choice in 2016, but the GOP cast their best hope aside that would have addressed Bush’s mistakes with the Wars, was very popular with the youth and would have been more palatable to women concerns with the GOP. Plus there were no other candidates that came close to cutting government spending like Ron Paul. Hmmm Ron Paul with Marko Rubio as a VP pick!!! What could the Dems do with that one. Instead the GOP good ole boys killed that effort with help from the Press.

Elizabeth, you are right on target. The Republicans failed partly because they failed to secure the Hispanic vote. Hispanics are the fastest growing ethnic group. If they are not on board, we lose.

  And how would you secure the Hispanic vote? By pandering with immigration? No – if you’re here illegally, you’re illegal, and there’s a problem. Hispanics as a whole are Catholic – what the HECK are Catholics doing supporting someone who wants Catholics to pay for insurance policies that cover abortion and birth control?
  
  Republicans have more elected Latinos than the Dems…and it doesn’t matter. I don’t think we go after “groups”. We state our principles and nominate people who stand by them. Unfortunately, I think that means a new party, because the Republicans are only interested in power.

      I am a believer in Jesus Christ as my Savior. He and I have walked through my life together. Miracles have happened in my life, where time and space disappeared. My life has been in His hands. To the secular, in general, I’m a nut case. So be it.
          The hand of the intelligentsia in America is turning to Man as God. The government is man’s tool as god, to guide, protect and use us.. Total control of this tool is paramount. The individual left to his own purposes is the true evil in the Universe..
           In replying to 44rd11, I find it hard to believe the the crazy diversity in denominations within Christianity would be what God wants. I find the many differences in interpretation of scripture, at times at the minutest level, to turn so called believers against each other, sometime to death, the evilest of evil and obviously the work of God’s enemy. But to the church, this is some kind of competition for membership God looks down on as sort of neat.” They’re competing for Me” let the games go on.
      Unbelievably the church, in many cases, doesn’t understand who God is and believe He just doesn’t really care about the confusion, mistrust and hate that manifest from these divisions. Remember, we are suppose to come to Him, our Heavenly Father ,knowing his love for us, His creation, heals all wounds and brings peace and comfort to all who seek Him,even the vilest of sinners. How can he condone this destructive attitude in the body He is suppose to inhabit?
      This internal division in God’s church is some of the reason the secular religion seems to be winning. Man, in any case, in his fallen condition wont change what is occurring in the World. His promised return will. Come quickly my Savior….. .

Mitt Romney made a great case for conservatism–especially in the debates. People think b/c he wasn’t “mean” enough or something to Obama that he lost. I think that’s just stupid. The people that wanted bigger government and more handouts out numbered the smaller government, free enterprise people. It’s just that simple. the mindset of this country has changed–think about it. the schools in this country are raising up a bunch of brain-washed liberal thinking children and young adults. we are now a entitlement mentality society and we are now a center-left country. that’s why we lost.

I found this in one of my books from the civil war era, and thought it appropriate about the system of governance we have in our nation:

“Our system of government has a loose-jointed quality – it is flexible enough to stand extreme stress and strain. It never gets rigid and therefore it never quite breaks under pressure. Often enough though, the political system by which our democracy works brings out the worst in people; the saving grace is that in times of extreme duress and crisis is also brings out the best of our people, and the greatest good they shine with.”

This is from a partial book I have called “The politics of war” from the inscription that I can read of it. Written within an hand count of years after the war, this passage has always stuck with me as a solid truth of the nation.

There will always be a portion of the nations people, when all is pressed to the limit by a force of evil and oppression from within; who have the moral courage to make the stand for what is right and do the hard tasks, and make the hard choices.

This is our time now, we have a President bent on destruction of our system and life; and now we need to be among the people who will stand up and face the times when they are hard. We are called now for this hour, this place and this means to fight the darkness.

Do as you each will, mock me if you care for until the end, I will stand and do what is hard. For I have God on my side, and none can beat Him that is born of this world.

  You can’t be serious. I like Christie and Obama made a fool of him, four hours or so later Obama was gone with a MILLION dollars advisement. All Christie had to do is meet him thank him for coming (because Obama should have anyway) not shoot his mouth off. Do you see all the extra help the the folks are getting. It did not change the election Jersey is like New York..Politically uneducated. Putnin could run as democrat and win.

  Joel, you seem to think this is some financial ploy for Glenn to exploit to make money. WHAT PART OF $16 TRILLION DEBT DON’T YOU GET?? That is MORE DEBT than ALL THE DOLLARS OWNED BY EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN FROM D. TRUMP, BILL GATES, ROCKEFELLERS, BUFFET, down to the LAST homeless person sleeping in the woods or under a bridge CAN PAY. It’s MORE money than ALL 310+ MILLION Americans have. NOW OWEbama’s going to institute strangling EPA rules against the coal industry–the LARGEST fuel supply the U.S uses to run our national energy grid–that will “necessarily SKYROCKET” energy prices as HE told you he would do–he’s CUT IN HALF oil production–the 2nd largest supply source and stopped ANY permits for nuclear power plants–the 3rd source of energy supply–what do YOU think will happen when energy prices SKYROCKET–the STOCK MARKET WILL CRASH taking the economy with it. Wind mills and solar panels WILL NOT supply our needs–AT BEST only 5% nationwide. ADD to that $585 BILLION IN OTHER NEW TAXES COMING NEXT YEAR!! I can name you 18 companies THAT CLOSED this week and 20 others that LAID OFF workers this week—and that’s BEFORE any of his JOB killing regulations and taxes for 2013 have started.

How many woman voted for Obama simply because of abortion, and they knew absolutly nothing else about any other issues. Yes, your propaganda war on woman worked with the less informed. And to tell me, an American woman, that theirs a war on me?? An insult to woman suffering in other countries that DON’T have a constitution to protect them.

We’re gonna have to ease up on some of our social conservatism to appeal to the masses …. otherwise we become extinct. No way are we gonna let up on our fiscal conservatism, though, because we won’t have to.

Anonymous

No, we must not comply. Our social conservatism is not the issue. The GOP believes that by becoming pro-abortion and giving amnesty are the answer & that isn’t the answer. Reagan gave amnesty, many GOP Senators including McCain work hard to give the immigrants some kind of status. What are the results? They vote Democrat & will continue to do so because it is the party that provides the FREE STUFF. Of course there are exceptions among that group, but the majority are expecting Santa Claus to provide for them.

  Making abortion illegal is not the answer, either. If you’re gonna ban it then ban the second and third trimester and partial birth abortions.
  
  Gay marriage will be legal within 20 years …. it’s time to stop fighting it … it makes it easy for the Left to successfully but dishonestly brand us as the Party of hate.
  
  We need a Rubio/Martinez ticket in 2016 and allow him to pass his amnesty light. Clearly those folks aren’t going anywhere. You can make some folks legal without granting citizenship and voting rights …. they came here for economic opportunity, not voting rights so they have no business balking that they cannot vote so long as they’re not full citizens. Let the kids become citizens with 6 years or more of active military service …. but no citizenship simply for going to school.
  
  If Latinos ever start voting like bIack folks (and they’re trending that way) we will never win another national election no matter what.
  
  If Republicans had a voice in the classrooms and newsrooms across the nation then perhaps we wouldn’t need to compromise but since Dems are the ones shaping public opinion (for the most part) our backs are against the wall.
  
  I’m not suggesting we adopt Hollywood values … we just are gonna have to bend a bit on some social issues while remaining very fiscally conservative until the ends of time.

This is an open letter written by my awesome brother. It’s directed to Republicans, but everyone needs to read it:
It is an unfortunate constant in humanity that as time goes by, politics becomes less about principle and all about power. Perhaps this is why Jefferson thought there should be a revolution every 20 years. These revolutions have occurred in the past. When those in power start to abuse it, a movement to counter that abuse rises up. Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan are two of these movements in recent history. They were, unfortunately, co-opted by corrupt influences. When mankind strays too far from a government “in tune with nature, and nature’s God,” as the founders put it, it is inevitable that the people will rebel. And when a party abandons its principles, people will be there to return them to the path. As the Republican Party does some soul searching after the election, let’s examine the contributing factors. There are three main influences in the Republican Party today: The Neocons, the Religious Right, and the Liberty Republicans. This is a generalization, because there are large numbers who believe in smaller government that don’t necessarily fit perfectly in any category, but they will understand my the message just the same.. The Republican grassroots is largely made up of the latter two but will also still support the third simply because of allegiance to the party. But let’s ask ourselves, what are the principles guiding each faction? The Neocons rely strictly on party allegiance to maintain their position of leadership, because they basically do not follow any principles besides serving their special interest overlords and lobbyists. They are all about holding the power and zero about abiding by principles. They were successful in delivering George Bush, and they rose to power with him firmly planting the R behind their name. They manipulate the grassroots by giving lip service to the principles with no intention of following through. At the moment they still hold the keys of power at the highest levels in the Republican party, and it is they who have delivered (force fed) us candidates in the last two cycles incapable of defeating a socialist. It’s funny because no one (except maybe Carl Rove) would ever admit to being a Neocon. But if you have found yourself fighting for party over principle, you have fallen for their trap. The Religious Right, or evangelicals, are those wishing to hold on to some moral standards in the United States as the virtues of the country seemingly continue to decay. A noble principle. The Liberty Republicans are those who believe in the principles of the founders and believe that our Constitution is the manifestation of those principles, that mankind has rights untouchable by government. In this past election one of these factions was shunned by the other two. How did that work out for us?When you think about the guiding principles of the three factions, which do you suppose has a better philosophy for the future of our country? The Liberty Republicans and the evangelicals largely agree on the principles of morality but disagree on implementation. The Republican Party alienated millions by taking moral stances that are less like a free republic and more like a theological dictatorship. If you believe in the sanctity of marriage, set an example, but do not try to dictate how other free Americans live. Republicans must believe that all are treated equally under the law, and that sometimes in a free society we must recognize the rights of others to live in ways we cannot condone. As long as no rights are being violated, it is not the government’s place to judge. You cannot legislate morality, and to continue to try to do so is futile and damaging to the party. he subject of abortion will never be settled. Telling a person who was raped that it was God’s will is just as offensive as forcing those who think it is murder to pay for abortions with their tax money. Let the Republican party fight against continued federal funding for it but not banning it entirely. Society has changed, and it will never happen. Hopefully, advances in medical technology will make this irrelevant in coming years. In the meantime, I personally wish we could settle on the second trimester and call it a compromise. Three months to decide, then it’s a kid. Not a perfect solution….but there isn’t one. The Neocons are bought and paid for by the big banks, the federal reserve, and the destructive corporate lobbyists. They are the ones who bring us continual wars that will bankrupt our nation. They are willing to lie and cheat and disregard their own rules in order to stay in power. In Tampa, they attempted (I say attempted only because I believe that the vote to accept them was too close to call and calls for division were ignored, making the results void) to pass new rules that will basically nullify the grassroots, transforming our party from the ground up organization it is supposed to be, to a top down cadre, where a few people at the top make all of the decisions. I agree that one of these factions needs to be rejected and the others need to agree to work together if the Party is to survive. But if we are to be a party of principle, which one that is becomes obvious. We must be the party of peace through strong national defense (not foreign adventurism), the party of lesser government, the party of lower taxes, and the party of individual liberty. We have a huge struggle ahead of us, because we may already be at the tipping point our founders warned us about. Once those on the government dole outnumber the productive people in society, they say there is no coming back. But liberty brings people together. Millions of immigrants came here for a better life, and they are all potential Republicans because none of them wants to see their adopted country turn into the socialist places they left. If we stand for liberty, peace, and the principles of the founders, more young people of all races will join our party, and the country might yet be saved. When contemplating what is the best thing to do for our party, consider doing what is best for our country, and then perhaps the party will flourish. Pat Kerby

Wow. It took out all of the paragraphing when I posted it. Sorry about that.

http://www.facebook.com/bryan.waldron Bryan Waldron

This was the perfect election to show the GOP just how disgusted we have been with how they are running the party. There was perfectly acceptable Libertarian candidate in Gary Johnson that people such as Glenn Beck could have thrown support in for. The change would have been HUGE. Instead, we get the same old tired garbage of, “Well he isn’t an ideal candidate but we have to stop Obama so we should just hold our nose and vote for Romney.” Glenn talks a lot about values and principles but when it comes times to stick to those he caves and supports Romney. He has said on numerous occasions that he considers himself a libertarian and yet that all goes out the window and he supports Romney, who wasn’t a whole lot different than Obama. I know we couldn’t risk Obama winning again and Romney was our best bet but that is ridiculous. Anyone with a brain knew Romney would lose. Values and principles mean NOTHING if we can’t stick to them when they are needed most.

I have been a big Glenn Beck fan for a while and don’t always agree with his point of view but this election cycle I have been highly disappointed with him and his support for Romney. Of course it easy now to pile on the GOP after the election but it should have been done long before this.

The government is lying, the schools are perpetuating the left wing fantasies of the progressives and even the churches are not raising the voice of the truth God has given us in His Word.

I think the overarching problem that conservatives have is continuing to believe that a majority of the population is intelligent enough to know what is important and what is not, or, more precisely, voting for what is best for the future of the country instead of what is best for them individually. The Democrats proved, beyond doubt, that ignorance is pervasive in the United States, and with every graduating class the population is becoming dumber and dumber by design.

    And we sure don’t want the Pharisaical approach to the Constitution that Ron and his supporters keep presenting … his/their good ideas get lost in the legalistic noise. He would have flopped as bad as Romney did for that reason alone … they would have tuned him out, too.
    
    I would support Ron Paul for Secretary of the Treasury … or for Chairman of the Federal Reserve, just for the entertainment value of watching the directors heads explode upon exposure to the fundamental realities of national finance that is Ron’s strength … but not for President.

Angus King (an independent, but former democrat) is the new senator from Maine taking over Olympia Snowe’s seat. In his acceptance speech, he thanked Karl Rove for being the single biggest asset to his campaign. It seems that as soon as Rove came to Maine to support the republican candidate, King’s poll numbers jumped.

As far as what happened on Tuesday, I think it has a lot to do with the way the Republicans present themselves. The Repubican/Democrat relationship seems a lot to me like a parent/child relationship, with the Republicans being the responsible adults and the Dems being the kids with their hands out all the time. When they don’t get their way, they throw a tantrum (Occupy Wallstreet, for example).

Glenn is right; conservatives need to think about the way they communicate with liberals. Talking about low taxes for job creators isn’t going to connect. Republicans are not connecting with Dems; that’s why they get away with promoting the concept that Republicans are out of touch. The Democrats have convinced voters to look at Republicans as the mean parent who won’t give them everything they want.

This is not about who was running, it is about the complacency and manifested lack of responsibility of the American people. I never thought I would see the day when GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHOSE BETWEEN one one side, two honorable Gentlemen without a blemish and on the other side, a proven Narcissistic liar with an old Chicago style politician looking down at the people, the Americans electorate would chose the latter.
I was raise to seek character, truth, honesty and straightforwardness in a candidate, before selecting him/her. I am still in shock.
The results of this elections means that half the people I encounter on the streets consider that: lying, cheating, deceiving, killing the unborn, taking from whoever has more, although it is not theirs, cheating in school applications, vowing to foreign dignitaries as if we are below them, thus dishonoring America, etc., etc. is acceptable. THIS NEW PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE IS WHAT IS SCARY!!!! If a person who’s qualifications, are still unknown, and his actions for the past four years have brought our country to its knees, can be elected by a majority, it is simply frightening…. We better prepare to see the riots promised in those despicable ads… we will see increase in crime, in cheating and a general degeneration of the workplace and society at large.My husband and I feel like finding a remote place for conservatives, where we can at least expect our values to be respected and not trampled upon. Heaven help us!

It doesn’t have anything to do with whether Romney was honorable or a nice guy. His record shows that he was not a conservative and that his policies were terrible. He alienated a lot of voters with his social policies and until the GOP changes that part of their platform they will continue to lose. They talk about freedom but it only pertains to what they support.

I’m there. I’m subscribing this month. Our income was cut during Obama’s first reign (yes, I say ‘reign’) which I blame on his energy policies, especially the cost of fuel. My husband lost his job of over 25 years because the company had to close. We have had hard times in the last 2-3 years. But whatever we have to sacrifice to subscribe is worth it. Freedom is worth everything.

Wrong – the establishment GOP is far from dead or gone – Boehner will STILL be Speaker of the House – because if demoted he will switch to the Democrat party where he belongs and can’t afford to lose even one pseudo Republican. McCain and McConnell are still on their knees kissing Harry Reid’s boots. The GOP will come up with another elitest half backed Republican like Chris Christie for 2016.

I will agree that the Republican Party has been marginalized – and when you have to start figuring out how to woo the disaffected – rather that clean up your act – it’s a sure sign that you aren’t really needed – just the right wing of a single party where the left wing controls the government.

Didn’t look good for the third partiers, either. Dismal numbers. Not encouraging. Sometimes it is better to remodel than to rebuild. In fact, in this “political ecosystem” it is much better to rebuild. Third parties do not survive in America. Sad fact.

Way too much navel gazing going on. It is not the charisma, it is not the party leaders (I am not a fan of theirs) , it is not Romney’s campaign buys (see Karl Rove), it is not money spent. For decades the progressives have been taking over the colleges and we did not respond. For decades the progressives have been taking over the media and we did not respond (see the new Blaze move), and for decades the unions have been taking over government employees. It is going to be a long hard battle to claw back to where we need to be to have a say again in the public arena. Look at interview after interview With Obama voters and do your own with liberals you know, why did you vote for Obama? Romney was going to eliminate birth control, Romney was going to take money from the middle class and give it to the Rich, Romney was going to destroy Latinos and Blacks. NONE of that came from any Republican, not Karl Rove, no conservative, no conservative blog, and not Fox News. These lies are Marxist propaganda and are part of a system implemented over years and years to destroy capitalism.
It doesn’t matter how you say it or broadcast it or what statistics prove your point, none of it gets through Non Fox Media and every professor is ignoring you and repeating the lies hence the answers we all get from Obama voters. Romney was the first presidential candidate since Reagan to talk about the founders and liberty and giving of ourselves without government. He spoke time and time again about government being the problem not the solution but none of the Obama voters heard a single word. Literally did not hear a word and that is why the debate gave him such a boost. First time he was really heard.
Stop the circular firing squads. Look Allen West lost and there is none finer than him. Mia Love right behind him. We have work to do. Make Blaze TV a force that will be heard. Get to work in your local elections. Stop sending your kids or speaking well of progressive factories called elite colleges. See Tom Sowell’s books, you don’t have to have your kids go to these elite progressive factories to be the top in their fields, you just don’t need to waste your money feeding the beast.
Most of all buckle up because this is going to be a rough battle with lots of lost battles (like Allen West) but if we keep at it we have a chance to turn this huge ship around.
We are at Valley Forge right now. We are bleeding. There is little hope. Many are backing it up and heading home. But it is not over yet. When they read the constitution and Federalist papers later to the men that stayed as they stamped their bandaged feet in the snow and stood around fires, something inside them stirred and the ideas produced hope and renewed determination to fight an impossible foe. Wrap your bleeding feet, stop battling with your fellow soldiers even if some of them are soft and not completely with us. There is a real enemy to fight and its roots start with Engels and Marx. It is an idea that must be beat. Socialism destroys religion, family, and liberty. Marx said “my objective in life is to
Dethrone God AND
Destroy capitalism.”
He declared one of the best methods to do this is to break down the family and the moral base. As soon as possible get children into government schools.

If you want to increase revenue through tax reform, go with the 10% flat tax – no exemptions or loopholes. If the Mormon church can be a model of prosperity with 10% tithing, our government can get by on 10% too. If you think it’s regressive, have it kick in for families whose income is above the poverty line.

And even as a non-Gary Johnson supporter that’s what was his tax platform was. Romney’s was at least 20%.

I say, practice what u preach GOP! LISTEN…! u didnt listen any more than the dems do!!! open ur eyes repubs! poles showed the people were willing to elect a no name T party candidate, over anything the GOP offered… or even chris christy, who wasnt even running… see the connection yet? we dont want u telling us who we want, we know what we want! we want truth /a candid personality / that says what he means /does what he says!! not a pretty presidential “looking ” candidate, but a REAL person, with love for country, that listens to the people!!! regardless what he or the GOP wants! i didnt hear Rom say one time, that he would ask what “the people” want… THIS election wasnt won on ISSUES, it was won by a posse of 18-29 yr olds wanting FREE school, free $, free Obama phones, free birth control /free abortions/ free, free, free anything they can get, because they refuse to see, nothing is free!!! … this country will have to hit bottom now, as in the 30’s, or worse, and last so long that this group sees for themselves that their children and grand children will sadly PAY! …i’m not a gloom monger here, just being REAL! … much of this same voting age group, doesnt pay REAL bills, they dont mostly have real resposibilities, they live off their hard working parents / and the gov… why would they wanna cut off the gov hand that feeds em? and as far as their parents … how many in this range do as their parents do?/ choose as their parents choose? / seek what their parents seek? …. this group of youth / young adults tend to do the opposite!!! … they dont “get ” or realize, hard work / love of country / parental love n sacrifice (yet) / no love for Godly principle / and they mostly think the Biblical warnings on israel and tribulation are only “ideas” for right wing radical nuts! We have lost our country to “gimme, gimme, self centeredness, wanting w / o having to give back… We gave the whole team a TROPHY, so no feelings would get hurt, what did we teach? … u can have any and everything u want, theres NO consequenses!, theres NO repercussions, no penalty for bad choices or behaviors… sadly, in considering poor little kiddies feelings, (all done with good intensions i know) we created some uncaring upcoming adults and future leaders (scary) , that are going to have to eventually, suffer drastically, because of their lack of respect, lack of fear, lack of honor, lack of GOD, lack of resposibilities, lack of consciences, lack of remorse, lack of respect for our military heros and what theyve paid, lack of education and conviction for /and of Biblical principles, lack of our true history, thats not being taught,… yet terrorists and atheists teach and mentor our youth, offering them “power( in and thru self) ideas ” with further ideas of how to avoid any consequences, growing a lack of self control from the brainwashing of man and satan.
young adults, its not your faults, and i dont mean to tear u down, but instead hope to help u see… if u get nothing else from this post … please learn from our generations mistakes !… let ur kids feel some of childhoods disappointments, let them play dodge ball, let them feel the lil bits of childhood hurt, that molds and teaches them right from wrong… (selflessness, and giving come from hearts that have felt both bitter and sweet experiences : ) then as adults, when LIFE hits them, it wont be a shocking blow, such as what is about to come for you… May God bless and protect America !

Romney was never electable. He was pretty much a Democrat when he was Governor of Mass. I cant believe he was the GOP’s nominee when clearly he wasn’t conservative and wanted to push healthcare on all of us just like Obama. Romney supported NDAA and the Patriot Act which clearly violates the constitution. The only candidate that was conservative, went after the Fed, voted in favor of the constitution, and actually wanted to cut spending by 1 trillion dollars was Ron Paul. But the establishment GOP didn’t want him therefore we get 4 more years of Obama.

THE GOP will continue to flounder until we get aggressive with DEMOCRATS. The minute the GOP takes the bait in this flimsy notion that we have to “reach out to minorities” the DEMOCRATS will jump in along with the main stream media and cream the GOP. The minorities will see the GOP efforts as patronizing for votes WHICH THE DEMS will jump on.

THE GOP needs to be very forceful in exposing how DEMOCRATS have lied to minorities and used them for elections. THE GOP needs to answer the negative lies that continue to go unanswered. THE GOP needs to show that BLACK OWNED businesses went up 38% DURING REAGAN …..BLACK MIDDLE CLASS expanded by a THIRD under REAGAN.
TAX CUTS . These truths REALLY threaten the DEM PARTY and will fight like a junk yard dog keep them hidden from minorities.

Just for the record, not all college kids are drinking the koolaid. My daughter is a member of the College Republicans at Marshall University and they are starting their own chapter of the Young America Foundation. Both my daughter and son (attends The Ohio State University) voted in their first presidential election and voted the Republican ticket. They can’t understand how anyone their age can buy into the Obama hype. If they want something, they have to save for it and buy it themselves. If it is something they need, then we find a way to take care of it. My children were extremely disappointed in the election results and embarassed that Cincinnati Ohio (Hamilton County) went for Obama.

Yep I can see a lot of fans in church for that :). If this country was pretty much all secular then They would be solid match against the Dem machine. But we aren’t so GOP may need to embrace more libertarian economic views.
So stop saying GB sold out.
Anyone looked at the national red/blue map. By color alone a outsider would think the GOP blew away the Dem side.The divide we are also seeing is geographic in many-ways also. Now maybe that may change when more and more folks leave left wing states and city’s for areas who are much more friendly and lean small govt views.

It’s kind of hypocritical for religious folk to give the thumbs up alcohol, yet demonize marijuana. Alcohol is FAR worse. Did you know that Portugal legalized all drugs about ten years ago? They now have 50% LESS heroine addicts and their number of drug addicts has been dropping ever since. The GOP needs to stop catering to religious extremists.

  There is nothing in the Bible that mentions drugs or alcohol. Our loss had nothing to do with religious extremists. It had everything to do with the exclusion of God in the lives of the American people. Things changed starting with the advent of progressive thinking and the courts; they took God out of the equation, things started breaking down; America began its decline in morality and now we are reaping what was sowed.

Here’s the bottom line for me. Romney and Ryan came up against the biggest dirty-players, liars, slanderous beyond belief, cruel to the core: media, insulting, demoralizing, demeaning, insulting, brainless twits that the Left Leaders are….and We’re Imploding…by blaming ourselves/Romney/ Ryan…the good guys who offered jobs, prosperity, hope, a hand across the ailes, intellectual giants who could talk circles around Obama and Biden…those two, who were rude, crude, stupid….and yet it’s Our Fault! Mea Culpa.

Our society had become so narcissistic that the Incompentent one can do no wrong…we are all entitled to all the free stuff he has to give…
He just has to come on stage…smile….wave…rant….look like he means what he says….and he’s the favored king again…this is the Vulture Culture…yet while we beat our chests ….looking for internal scapegoats…as if the Left really is so infallible…stop looking at them as if they are better…they are just dirtier…

Romney was the best candidate of the bunch, but overall he was only a decent candidate. “Greatest candidate since Reagan” is a huge stretch. I feel that he would have been a much better president then Obama, but to get there you need to be good at politics. As a politican he sucks though, and this is why he couldn’t win. He couldn’t win the turnout war against a President with an atrocious record. He couldn’t reach out and communicate to people whose views are outside of the right. Hell, the base only voted for him because he’s not Barack Obama. In 2016 we need a GREAT candidate who can run a great 21st century grassroots campaign.

One of the first things Glenn should do, since he is planning to expand his media onslaught, is get someone to proofread and edit all the mistakes. You’d think a multi-media company would pay a little more attention to copy, especially when they’re begging people to subscribe to it. This article is so full of mistakes, a high scholl English teacher would have handed it back to be re-written.

You’d think with Americans for Prosperity and the Koch brothers involved, he wouldn’t have to be begging for money from 47%. I once considered myself somewhat of a fan, even bought a couple of Beck’s books, but the more research I do, the higher the “crook” meter needle seems to climb.

Over and over our Founders declared the necessity of a moral and religious people for the sustenance of our Republic. Adams said that an “immoral and irreligious people would run through our Constitution like a whale runs through a net.” The bible tells us that God is sovereign in the affairs of men and furthermore, that He appoints over us whomsoever He wills, the basest of men. (Dan. 4:17)

Until we realize (and I think that we’re way beyond realization) that there is a grave urgency to return to the God of our fathers, and repent from the gross immoralities that characterize our present culture we will continue to witness the gut wrenching demise of this most blessed of nations. As much as I pray for it to happen, I wouldn’t bet a nickel on it. We’re facing a political and cultural tsunamis of unprecedented proportions.

America’s chickens are coming home to roost. We the people said trillions in debt is OK with us. How do like that chicken? We elected thieves and frauds and adulterers and liars to public office and then said do a good job for us and we’ll make you rich. How’s that chicken tasting now?
God is not in our schools or the town square becasue “we the people” kicked Him out. When judges decided that evolution was true and the Bible was not – we the people did nothing. America’s chickens are coming home to roost. You denigrate Wright for saying it – but you fail to hear the truth of it. We the people have allowed the sodomites to teach in our schools. We watched Will and Grace and said it was funny, when in truth it was sad. What are the chickens – that almost all young people now believe that Obama is right when he comes out to support homosexual marriage. There’s your chicken.

We have the news media we paid for, and supported. When they lied – we didn’t burn them down. When they sold out – we did not run them out of town on a rail. There’s some more chicken for you.

The US of A may survivie 4 more years. But it will not be the country that our forefathers gave us. We baby boomers ought to be ashamed. And until we are, we will not do anything to change it. We will just choke on the chicken.

Glenn, you can’t be in the same ball park with ABC, MSNBC, Fox News by subscription. Who is going to subscribe? Those who are like-minded. In other words, you’re singing to the choir. People don’t need to subscribe to the lame-stream media – they’re just there. Flip the channel, there they are. You may need another way to finance this project (which is a good one). Also, what you are proposing needs to be heard, even if accidentally, by everyone and anyone. But that won’t happen if one can only hear the information if they have a subscription. You are limiting your audience.

As for me and my family we want first to see the country experience spiritual repentance and revival. No TV, radio, Internet, newspaper or magazine actions can come even close to turning things around in the USA. GOD has issued warning after warning and we look the other way and snub our noses at HIM who made us! Prayer is and always will be our strongest weapon against evil and all of the things GOD hates as revealed in his written word. God tells us the way up is down and to humble ourselves and seek his face for forgiveness. A Christian group of men in my area meet once a week for spiritual strengthening and fellowship. I never leave the gathering without feeling that my responsibilities as a husband, father, patriot and most importantly as a Christian have received a shot in the arm! God looks to the men of the world to stand tall and be the spiritual leaders of their households and communities. I’m not trying to put down women in anhat y way, because “real” men know that because of our mothers and our wives have held us up when we needed a special lift, and dusted us off when we got knocked down.

I believe we are facing a terrible event or series of events in the near future. Not because of a financial meltdown, hurricanes or tornadoes and the like; but because GOD has removed his protection from us as He warns us. Is it too late to turn it around, to turn a fallen nation into a GOD fearing one? The clock is ticking and He is the only One who can stop it! I would hope, I pray that we as men and women step up and look to HIM for the answers to all things and that we do it hand in hand, family with family, community with community. Glenn is after the same thing I am certain and if he is a champion for our (GOD’s) purpose, then I support his endeavors. We can’t afford but few luxuries this day and age, but I think we’ll give him a try.
Glenn, if you read this then I want your sincere, humble commitment to honor GOD first and all the rest will fall into place.

Republicans need to know that the US demographics have changed. The US has changed. If Reps do not appeal to women in terms of family planning and gender equality, and to Hispanics in terms of fair immigration policies, then they can never win. Women and minoritiies control who is President. The old line conservative Republican party turns people off. People like Aiken helped take out Romney. Obama’s win was about demographics and moderate values.The sad truth is that people do not care how the economy is or anything that Obama does as or says long as they get their benefits. The public did not trust Romney to protect their jobs and earned benefits like Medicare/Aid and Social Security.Romney should have waited 4 more years to run and have moved to the center from the start and not chosen Ryan who scared seniors with his vouchers and cuts to Medicare. Romney should have backed the Detroit auto bail out to secure Ohio. And he should have chosen Tim Pawlenty or Marco Rubio. It is that simple. However, we must not forget that Obama has a legacy and place in history. And it is almost impossible to defeat a popular candidate and likeable candidate like Obama; so Romney should have waited.

I believe this election was rigged. The polls were rigged to help sell the idea that the election was close. It was done to preserve Obamacare. Our voices weren’t heard because our votes were not accurately counted. How does the gutless supreme court that decided the issue was in the peoples hands rectify that. Some states like Texas need to threaten secession from the Union. This is not a united country anymore anyway. If states like Texas can be ready to secede unless we are given permanent waivers from Obamacare then we have a chance at turning this around. We also have to eliminate the conflict of interest between entitlement receiving voters and elected officials. If you receive entitlements, welfare, food stamps,unemployment, etc for more than six months in any election year you shouldn’t be eligible to vote. Politicians would then be forced to help people become productive citizens in order to earn their vote. That would eliminate this free stuff for votes movement and restore the proper balance in this country.

Write your congressmen and Senators. President Obama should be impeached for his cowardly and dishonest actions before during and after the Benghazi attack. There are probably more than a few laws broken during Fast and Furious, questionable loans to his friends in Green companies like Solyndra and many many executive orders the past few years that are unconstitutional. Stack all the evidence up, evaluate it, and the impeach this dishonest and corrupt president before he can do more irreparable harm to this country.

I have not stopped crying……I am a teacher that has seen the increasing entitlement generation and dealt with their offspring. We failed because our conservative newscasters and ex-candidates did not warmly embrace Romney. The GOP did not present enthusiasm for Romney. Personally, I think his religion was the “elephant in the room” for too many conservatives, who just didn’t make it to the polls because “they were too busy”. The GOP is dead….perhaps a new Constitution Party will be more effective. I will be posting that quote from Thomas Paine in my classroom, to give me strength….along with a picture of George Washington….I will refer to Obama, and The President from this day forward-but I won’t put those words together. Let us be strong and resilient!

I worked as a election judge in colorado. The dems are good at community organizing. They hired kids at college at 12 to 14 bucks an hour to reelect Obama. They went door to door to herd them to the polls. How would that work for repubs…they are not at home to be herded

It is the IDEAS, stupid! Who wants to forget contraceptives exist? What woman wants to give birth to the son of her rapist? What decent parent wants their child rejected by insurance companies when sick? Who wants their tax dollars to go to unnecessary wars? Who wants to bring back slavery? Who wants to live under a dictatorship of the 1% and corporations? So stop beating around the bush (pun intended) and learn this: the world has changed since the 50’s, and it DOES NOT WANT TO GO BACK THERE. It is now a vibrant, multi-cultural, creative, free of religious mandates place where anyone truly can make it -not only the white man, like in the 50’s you so miss. And the American people has shout that in the faces of the right wing extremists that control the GOP today by voting last Tuesday. Now stop the whining and deal with it.

Wow. Who wants to bring back slavery? Who wants a dictatorship? Why, it the socialist / progressive movement that wants to that!! You have been thoroughly indoctritnated with the progressive propaganda. Your statements on the 50’s and white man proves me right about you.

I think we need to have a “non-violent” revolution, a “vote-with-my-feet” revolution, and do like Beck says and consolidate our numbers to gain more power to rid ourselves of the machine. In other words, we need to have massive migrations of millions of conservative people from the blue states to the reddest states. It would take a lot of work.

I live in Okla. and I was thinking if a grass-roots movement could be started in the states like Ok and Tx where we grow to a massive organization of churches, groups, and individuals who are willing to support the “immigrants” and help them to get established and going. There are also states in the midwest like Indiana where where immigrants could go.

In Okla and Tx (and others in the Great Plains) the cost of living is cheap and there is a lot of land available. 20-30 min from OKC, in all directions, are rural suburbs on 2-3 acres, unzoned, where it is possible to grow a large garden, have chickens, feed out a steer, etc.

If I had a lot of money, I would buy a farm here and hire one of the many great farmers who have lost everything to the bank to manage it, just to supply their own family needs. Okla climate is unique in that you can plant wheat in the fall, graze cattle on it all winter, eliminating the need to buy hay, take the cattle off in March to feed out or sell, and let the wheat grow again to harvest in June.

Wealthy businessmen should buy one of the empty flour mills everywhere and reopen it to function like it used to-farmers could bring in their own wheat to have it milled into flour.

That’s my “radical” idea, take electoral votes away from the blue or moderate states, and give them to the red states, where the population is self sufficient.

The last 4 years of absolute hell were not enough to convince the majority to KO Obama. I can see 2 scenarios- 1) The economy trudges along and unemployment does not get better or worse. The status quo is maintained and another progressive is elected in 2016. 2) The economy implodes, the dollar collapses, and 1-2 terrorists attacks happen on our soil.

Christie didn’t lose the election for Republican’s. We lost this election because we were the party that didn’t listen. On several occassions we were the party that opened mouth and shoved the big foot in it. Man up. Get over it. Fix the problems. We will never win if hispanics feel we hate them, young people think we are the party of “the old white people” (by the way I’m one of those old white people). We need an image change so people will listen to what we have to say. And the other thing, stop watching ABC, NBC and CBS (that includes football)

Swing voter here – I voted for Obama this election, and I’ll tell you why. You Republicans ran a set of maniacs this election.. It was so difficult to take any of them seriously when they all seemed to be so completely insane. Cain? Really? A pizza man with an insatiable taste for the ladies? He can’t even take himself seriously.. Have you seen the “ads” he runs on the Jon Steward Show about space alien invasions? Bachman – This is a woman who doesn’t even know that her own husband is a homosexual.. How is she expected to have her finger on the pulse of the country? Gingrich – The most insane. He takes marriage vows seriously unless they apply to him. How many times has this guy been married? And he wants to tell me how I should live my life? haha! An egomaniac like this world has never seen. Perry – We already had an insane cowboy from 2000 to 2008. Not ready for that again. I wish the Christians would separate from the republicans – I hate it now that they’ve become so intertwined. You guys are on the wrong side of the marijuana laws, the wrong side of gay marriage, and the young people hate you. We see you as the part of old, rich, white men who want to tell everyone else how to live their lives. I think it’s comedy to the highest degree that while Gingrich was prosecuting Clinton for adultery he was having an affair himself as his wife was in the hospital undergoing cancer treatment. Meanwhile Mitt is a completely different person in every interview he does and never had an economic plan, even in the final days of the election. You goofballs on the right would be dangerous if anyone took you seriously.

Perhaps that’s a bit of projection on your part. But yeah, as long as we’re talking about it – keep your fairy tales out of my life. Aside from that, I assume you agree with everything else I wrote. Bottom line is don’t run so many loonies in 2016 and you may have a chance.

Everybody needs to calm down. We need to listen instead of talk. The voters didn’t declare a mandate. If they had all of congress would have gone democratic. The ball is in the dem’s court. If we go off the cliff it will be the Dem’s fault. In life there are always compromises and If the dems.play the wrong hand their history. We instead need to stick together and be the party that is inclusive – instead of the party of “haters and old rich white people” (by the way I’m one of those old white people not rich) We need an image change. take our message to the ground. Get up front and personal with the people. Glenn is right the national media won this election for Obama. Now go get ’em. Turn off ABC, NBC and CBS (that includes football and NASCAR). Take ’em down financially. This is battle #1.

We don’t need a third party, we need a 2nd party. The current GOP is nothing more than Democrat light. We need to abandon the GOP and join en masse a party that promotes constitutional, limited government and free enterprise economics while eschewing the debasement of traditional values. I’d certainly change my party affiliation to such an organization.

I would love some ideas of how we can hold the mainstream media responsible, I feel they are the biggest ones to blame for the election….the actions of some fellow Republicans do not help, but the biggest is the media.

We know that this is a time for division….it is the last days…we just have to make sure that everyone has the truth so they can make a clear choice for themselves. Maybe this election will help make the results of people’s choice more clear, maybe the results and these storms are going to humble us (one way or another) so that we can clearly see the choice.

It is fun to see all you right wing nut jobs whine and moan about the demise of the country. If you had been born many years ago, now doubt you would have fought the New Deal and Social Security, and later, Civil Rights and Medicare. Our country is better and stronger because of its social programs, not weaker. Keep espousing your wacky views, however, it is what keeps us Democrats in power and provides us with a lot of entertainment.

I agree. I think that we are definitely drifting toward a political governmental division of the Union where States band together based on their values and gather together to make their own government. Another Civil War of a different kind? I don’t know but it sounds good to me now.

Sometimes, division is good. The Democrats do not have a big mandate. They just suppressed the vote.

The main stream media are largely to blame though. A republican candidate has to somehow survive the death of a thousand cuts.

How can we put the mass media out of business?

You got your foot on the wrong shoe: GOP is who suppressed the vote. “How can we put the mass media out of business?” Your grasp on real reality is astonishing!

THE GOP will continue to flounder until we get aggressive with
DEMOCRATS. The minute the GOP takes the bait in this flimsy notion that
we have to “reach out to minorities” the DEMOCRATS will jump in along
with the main stream media and cream the GOP. The minorities will see
the GOP efforts as patronizing for votes WHICH THE DEMS will jump on.

THE GOP needs to be very forceful in exposing how DEMOCRATS have lied
to minorities and used them for elections. THE GOP needs to answer the
negative lies that continue to go unanswered. THE GOP needs to show that
BLACK OWNED businesses went up 38% DURING REAGAN …..BLACK MIDDLE
CLASS expanded by a THIRD under REAGAN. TAX CUTS . These truths REALLY threaten the DEM PARTY and will fight like a junk yard dog keep them hidden from minorities.

I am devoting myself to praying for our country, our land (may God send a revival) and those I know and love. I ask that men of honor stand in the gap for us who are tired and weak….(I voted for Romney and even persuaded at least one other person to vote for him) but I am tired of politics. I will be praying for you and others like you. God bless you and keep you strong as He has chosen you to be the watchman on the wall.

Our political system has simply become one of “What shenanigans do I have to engage in to buy votes and make people choose our party so we can be in power” rather than, “What are we doing in wrong and what do we have to do to fix it for the good of the country.” But, God is in charge…that’s the only hope we have. Having said that, when we reject God (as we have been doing since the 1960s), we cannot expect him to shower his blessings down upon us. The mess that will be caused by Obama’s reelection, our loss of freedom and the economic disaster that this will be, will either humble us to turn our hearts back to God, or it will cause our further devolution where men will curse God and die. I’m not seeing much hope for it being the positive of those two possible outcomes.

COMMENTS: Your comments on your website are as bad as Donald
Trumps’s comments,

foolish at best. You
dont accept credit cards and blame it on political

reasons-foolish…

Thats a great way to loose business by injecting politics
into your business.

Personally I have done extremely well in the last 3 years in
the stock market and my

business has flourished under both Bush and Obama, I cant
complain personally. I

can complain about the economy for others who are not as
fortunate as I was, I can

claim both Bush and Obama reasons…but in reality its a
cycle for the most part,

besides war which is costly.

Am I going to inject politics into my business and scare off
customers-nope.

So from what you are saying is if I dont have a republican
card, or democratic card

for the other fringe I am not welcome,

How bout a guy who is in neither party like me, likes
certain aspects on both sides

and hopefully picks a better guy.

Personally, I was going to book a hunt with you guys until I
saw the political crap,

I am tired of so many hunters who happen to be republican
spewing politics. We had a

group of at least 11 guys-beer drinking, football nuts, who
just want to have fun.

Some union workers, some business owners, a Professor, some
trust fund babies, and

two immigrants from Italy,
we all grew up together, with different political ideas,

but we are smart enough to realize shut up about it …good luck with your

business.

REPLY:

Since instituting this policy, last year, my business has
never been

better, eliminating liberal, union, socialists has just been
a side

benefit.

I am too old and too set in my ways to care, Thorn Bottom is
the best

hunting club in Ohio, I own it, I built it, I run it, and I
don’t care

what you or anyone else thinks, if anyone wants to hunt on
Thorn Bottom

they do so by MY rules, not the governments, political
correctness IS NOT

WELCOME.

The members and the people that hunt with me every year do
so because we

are the best, wildest hunting preserve anywhere, not just
Ohio. Luck and

handouts are what lazy socialist think is needed, I relied
on hard work

and delivering the best product to get where I’m at. NOT LUCK.

It is best that you find somewhere else to hunt, try public
land, the

government runs that.

Message to GOP. Get rid of these social liberal republicans or denut them. If you think the conservatives stayed home and that is why your liberal Romney lost, what do you think will happen next time? I voted for Romney even though he was lib-lite. I will never vote for another one though and I hold out for third party also. By the way you socially lib republicans, do you really think that baby killing pervs are going to vote for you over the democrat party?

That people who abort enjoy it? Your metaphor is idiotic. People who want to keep abortion on the table are thinking not of the joy of killing babies, but on the quality of life of women who might just be risking their lives and/or livelihood if they do not have the lawful choice of interrupting an early pregnancy, women who might not define the beginning of life the same way you do. Listen, grow a vagina, grow women’s breasts and then you might get a say in other people’s bodies. This is America, land of freedom, including freedom of belief. Take it or leave it.

      It’s not idiotic. It is a perfect analogy. You just try to have it both ways. Want proof?

You make it sound like your just interrupting a conversation or something. Your a sicko. Freedom in America does not give a person the right to murder. But that is normal for whacko people of your “ilk”. By the way, who’s quality of life are you thinking of?

      I repudiate abortion. I hate the idea of it, and I deplore someone who’d do it just because they made a mistake. But that is just one possibility. My mother had me and my brother when she was young. Later on in life, year after she divorced my father, she fell in love with this very nice guy. At one point, she became pregnant with him. About two and a half months into the pregnancy it became evident the child (the fetus) was not in good shape. At all. There was a 100 percent probability that he/she would have massive brain damage and big probability he/she would die. My mother also had great probability of dying in the process. We all talked about it, it was really hard on all of us. But in the end, we decided the life and health of my mother was the most important thing. You come here and judge us? That’s what your religious belief gives you authority to do? No, sir. You have no right. We chose life. And you have no say in our lives. Thankfully, the law permitted us that choice. You and your ‘ilk’ would have FORCED us to risk a life we now enjoy together. You would have the federal government decide for me and my brother to put our mother’s life in a gambling game. No sir. You have no right over our lives. And I will fight to keep it that way.

My brother and his wife cared for my nephew who was afflicted with cerebral palsy knowingly before bith….because they had love. Josh lived for 22 years and was a joy to everyone but me in particular.

I will say this tho, if I did have a child that was biologically mine, I wouldn’t kill it just because it may or even would have something wrong with it. It may kill me emotionally but the baby would be in Gods hands not mine.
      
      The exception I see here tho is that the mother could lose her life. That is a situation that I would not want to be in whether I was for or against abortion. If you pick to save the mother, then you are a baby killer to some people. If you chose to save the baby, then you could kill the mother. One is as bad as the other since either way, someone is dead. The even worse outcome, both die.

      How did I lie? You can’t handle the truth. There is forgiveness for all of us if we confess our sins to God and repent(turn away and change). If we xhoose to ignore the warning and remain in our sins, the sins remain in us and we have no part in the salvation prepared for his chosen since before the beginning of the world. How will you tell God off if he judges you for your refusal listen?

Since this monsterous thing called Obama has been in office, I have spent more time than I ever have in my learning about our history, researching and reading into WHO he really is, and what progressives are doing to our country. I am glad I am more informed, that’s a good thing. But for most of my life I have hated politics and politicians – and since the elections I’m remembering why! After this depressing defeat, I am feeling just like you, Glenn. I am going to continue to pray and help people who I can in my community.
What I see spriritually, is a country who had a clear choice to choose a decent Godly man or an evil, deceptive liar….and THEY CHOSE EVIL OVER GOOD. That is ‘heart’ problem in America! The DNC voted to remove God from their platform and we still embrace their agenda? The GOP has problems, but at least they did not eject God!
How many books have been written about how corrupt Obama is? How difficult is that to find…even if you Google it? How many people have been speaking out on alternative websites and news media? Those who cared to know could know how horrible he is. They chose Barabus (not that Romney is Jesus – but the choice of good and bad was that clear)!
This country has chosen to walk away from God on a massive scale – and there are consequences to that. Now, people can change their minds, and I hope they do. But if not, there are some agonizingly tough times ahead. Those of us who have not been deceived; really need to pray, be prepared, and trust God to take care of His people even though there may be chaos around us.

Glenn, I share your point of view and feelings over the whole fiasco. I was dissapointed with the whole Republican campaign. They were more worried about making sure they came across as a nice person rather than cutting to the point and forcing Obama to explain himself, his stand, and his policies! The Republicans need new leadership! And why can’t they find a decent campaign manager?

It’s very difficult to say the Republican establishment is over after you just voted for a Republican establishment lackey. The establishment is not going to go down without a fight. It would be better if the Tea Party just joined the Libertarian Party, since that is where their ideas come from anyway. If anyone does not believe me, simply look at the ideas of the Tea Party, then go to the Libertarian Party website. Amazingly enough, they seem to be the EXACT same ideas.

It’s time for Conservatives to realize that the Republican Party has failed them. These “so-called” Republicans that keep getting elected continue to help with the destruction of this country. Conservatives need to change and start talking about FREEDOM for ALL. Leave the social issues to Democraps. This would ensure that Conservatives will get elected and follow through. This would change the dynamic of our entire political landscape. This would break the stanglehold the establishment has on Democraps and Republicans.

There is no need to fight the Republican establishment, simply make them irrelevant by turning to the Libertarian Party. They have most of the groundwork laid. Conservatives just need to push them over the top. This is the way we get our freedom back.

Adages to keep in mind going forward… a house divided against itself will fall, and, the hand which rock the cradle rules the world… Forget about being afraid that America is heading towards becoming Greece. The only revolution which needs to happen is to re-evaluate the Republican party and become the business party, or the faith party. As it stands, this party is being pulled in two directions and you cannot serve both mammon and God… this party needs to split and seriously kick out the spinners, and whichever party evolves, it must truly acknowledge and address issues which are important to women who make up the greater portion of the earth’s population.

It is time we had a party based on conservative fiscal policies, strong national defense, and social freedoms. The Libertarians are almost there except for defense. But it needs a new name – maybe Freedom Party! I believe that the middle and right leaning democrats and the Republicans who aren’t hung up on social issues would move there quickly. Most of the Tea Party is there now; they just keep ending up supporting these right wing loons like Akins. I don’t support abortion but also don’t think I have a right to tell someone what to do when their action has no negative impact on my life. I think most Americans just want to be left alone!!! I agree with Glenn, I can’t even listen to any of the media jabbering anymore.

Yes, the GOP Establishment is over. They alienated a large population of the youth vote (you can’t figure out the youth vote?!?!?) who was enthusiastic for Dr. Ron Paul, the only non-insider, non-status quo candidate who resonated with them by completely being honest and open with them about the FED, monetary policy, foreign policy, healthcare and what the future held in store if they continued down the downhill path of both major political parties… along with alienating a lot of independent and libertarian minded people. If they would have embraced these people, the outcome could have been different. Many of these people did not vote or voted for 3rd party.

The GOP also gave us the two most liberal Republican nominees in history… Romney and McCain. And they expected to excite the conservative base of the party?!?!

Glenn backed the quintessential GOP establishment candidate fellow Mormon Mitt, while bashing the only conservative who actually accomplished something in D.C., Newt, who got the budget balanced for four years. Congrats, Glenn. Now shut up and go buy some gold and food.

Funny how Jesus never says anything directly about gay marriage, but he speaks without doubt regarding the sins of divorce. Conservative my a$$..

There is no bigger supporter of the welfare state and thus
welfare state politicians and the Dem party than the Catholic bishops. They
love this destructive system based on envy, jealousy, covetousness, bitterness
and theft. They promote this all the time and then they say oh, no, don’t vote
for pro-abortion candidates. Good luck with that. Choosing which sins are ok
and which are not is kinda tricky business.
Most Christians would rewrite Jesus’s parable and take the golden talents from
the man with 5 and give them to those who had fewer or none.

Please explain what a fiscal cliff means. I hear the words used, but have never heard exactly what it means.

Anonymous

Basically, there are a LOT of tax breaks that expire the last day of this year. Bush tax cuts plus a few others. That means a LOT of people will be paying more taxes than they are now. When they pay more taxes, that means they have less to reinvest into their company which could lead to employee layoffs and such. Keep in mind, a lot of small businesses file personal taxes so they get hit too. Actually, the layoffs I mentioned are already being announced.

Just before the election, I stopped watching Fox News. Before this time, I was a faithful watcher but in light of their caving in to the left, I quit. Megyn Kelly appeared as if she had changed her political party and was attacking the conservatives, Republicans. Bill O’Reilly is a joke now. When he had a discussion panel (2 ministers) talk about C. L. Bryant and his movie Runaway Slave, I thought he would show it in a positive light. No, he had 2 ministers who were against Rev. Bryant’s message. O’Reilly didn’t even support it himself and let them ramble on their negativity. Why didn’t he at least have one against and one for it? What a joke! Rev. Bryant’s message is a must for the African American community and they need to hear it over and over until they hear truth. Fox News and Republican establishment have sold us out and have joined the liberal media and communists/Dems. What are all these conservatives who projected wrong (or perhaps right only the Dems stole the election – I think it’s a possibility!) feel they need to grovel to Obama and Dems? What in heaven’s name are they doing? What’s Boehner and the Republican Party doing bowing to the dictators, the Dems? They are selling us out. I am changing my political affiliation, no longer a Republican, to Independent and no longer have interest in Fox News. A complete waste of my time! I want real, true news. I hope the states that a thinking about seceeding take it seriously and do it. We don’t need anyone’s permission to be free!

The GOP murders Catholics, we will not forget. 5 million dead in central and south America, 2 million children–dictators, death squads, and assassinations targeting RCs. The GOP has murdered another 5 million dead, at least 1 million children in the middle east. Why would we support the GOP? Mitt Romney was not even lawfully nominated, scream about election rigging and fraud for four years and then throw an election for your banker trash Romney? To hell with you.

Obama won only because of the fact that he cheated… Military vote was sent ba day late, so it would not be counted… Somalian nationalists were found in Ohio with democrat operatives showing them how to vote and who to vote for whuich is illegal.. Most States that had voter ID laws went to Romney, those with out voter ID laws went to Obama and there are charges of massive amounts of FRAUD in those states! Furthermore the Democrat increase in the youth vote CAN be explained easilyin two words… Teacher Unions… We NEED to get rid of the NEA!

No, troll retard. The republican party is failing its constituents by not reflecting every single conservative principle, which is what the tea party wants as well. You go ‘advise’ your wingnut party. When the tea party is more in charge the progressives will be done, and the country saved. Go troll elsewhere, wacko.

  Tony- When the Tea Party was about Taxes and Spending OK I did not agree but then they got into abortion, contraception, immigration, ending the separation of church and state, the nonsense that President Obama is Muslim BTW being Muslim is not a crime, The double nonsense that President Obama was not born in the US, that he is not one of us, Running Nut cases like Allen (there are 71-80 Communist in the US House) West, or Richard Murdoch saying if a woman becomes pregnant due to rape “it’s God’s will” taking people like Limbaugh, Hannity, Trump a serious. If they are going to cling to these views they have no chance of winning anything

The GOP needs to change or it is dead. The GOP needs to grant family planning rights; strengthen paid/earned benefit programs like Medicare/Medicaid/Social Security; empower the middle class; create not ourtsource jobs. Women and minorities through their numbers decide elections in the U.S. The GOP by granting blanket amnesty under Regan and refusing to secure the border played a big part in engineering its own demise.

This is the dumbest post I’ve ever read in my life. Every single thing mentioned is completely bass ackwards. obama only won by 3.5 million votes. 65% of people who make under 30k voted for him. That’s SEVEN million. HELLO!! Do the math. The obama campaign won the message war. That’s all. Romney wasn’t a very good candidate. And the GOP SUCKS at doing the job it should be doing. That’s all, Merl.Not thing more.

Nothing could have stopped Obama from winning because Romney blew it in debates 2 and 3 because of his shaky grasp on foreign policy; lack of toughness against Obama–his telling Obama in the debate “you are right”; ‘failing to convice us he could provide and not outsource jobs; and through the comments of Aiken; and from Romeny saying he did not care about the 47%. Romney placed nice when it was time to get tough; tought when it was time to be nice; and that showed poor judgement, ignorance, lack of street-smarts and junk-yard dog toughness; and thereby not being fit to be President.

GOP needs to focus on fixing the economy and leave other sensitive issues regarding women and immigrants off the national platform. Focus on fairness for all.

http://profile.yahoo.com/7ZEWFTASSLVX7OTH6GM2BGEBZI Merl734

The GOP needs to keep the following issues that alienate
huge numbers of voters off of their running platform and never, ever hint at or
mention: cutting paid entitlements like Medicare, Social Security, and
Medicaid; never mention vouchering any services for seniors; do not cut
benefits or salaries for government workers; respect reasonable Union
agreements; do not discuss anti-choice or any issues related to women that
could be construed as limiting women’s equal rights issues and choice issues;
do not ever say they do not care about the 47% or regard those in real need
with distain; etc. Instead, Republicans need to focus on how they can help the
hard working taxpayers; refund Social Security and paid entitlements; and
manage the budget so those that paid into it can get what they have earned, and
to provide for those in real need–not greed. This will demand fiscal
responsibilty: not throwing out taxper money for votes, frivolos expenses,
etc.; and genuine budget accountability. If both parties can stop taking from
the people, the one who does the best job at restoring a thriving economy for
all will win. Republicans need to watch their language and body language so as
not to appear uncaring and cocky or snobby to the less fortunate–that style
did not go over well for Romney, because it alienated Independent voters.
Romney is now one of the most unpopular people in the U.S. and is seen as an
arrogrant, greedy, irresponsible coporate villain due to the brilliance and
effectiveness of the Democratic campaigns–never, ever underestimate a
Democrat, especially an Alinsky Democrat. And never, ever understimate the
candidate with the historical, cultural or political imperative like Obama and
Hillary Clinton; the folks are with them. The GOP instead needs to focus on
fair and humane immigration policies that do not put US citizens at the back of
the line in terms of benefits, etc. Do not ask immigrants to self deport;
rather have the INS take care of this. Romney’s request to self-deport was
idiotic and tantamout to political suicide; almost as bad as his informal don’t
care remarks; as it made all of those in his corner flee to Obama, even those
in favor or strict deportation. Republicans cannot afford to Lord it over any
group or appear arrogant, cocky, or overly self-assured, because the culture of
America has changed, and this attitude represents callousness, even racism and
sexism to many. In the words of Janice Joplin, Republicans need to Try Just a
Little Bit Harder to win over and keep voters. And they can do this by reading
Frank Luntz’s brilliant article entitled Republicans Watch Your Language where
Luntz advises Republicans how to speak to the American people who are no longer
mostly older, wealthy white males. The new American demographic is the poor, the
striving, the struggling, the “hard-working taxpayers”, women,
immigrants, disenfranchised, etc.; these groups are the now majority; the
minority has become the majority and the demographic majority decides who will
win elections. Ironically, the GOP by its policies on immigration under the
Regan administration has created this new majority and must deal with the new
reality it has created.
