Questions That Should Be Asked
I guess this should also be called, “How Republicans Are Planning For 08″.
Truth Laid Bare is compiling the questions and policies that need to be answered by the GOP leadership…questions like my favorites:
What is your position on immigration? Specifically: 1. Are you in favor of funding and building the 700 mile fence on the Southern border? 2. Do you support stronger enforcement of criminal laws and civil sanctions against employers who hire illegal immigrants? 3. Are you for or against an expanded guest worker program and how/when would you implement such a program? 4. Do you support amnesty for illegal immigrants currently living in the US and, if so, what specific provisions do you support?
And…
Are you willing to stand up for and further the conservative agenda even if President is opposed to it?
And…
Do you have the integrity to put the conservative agenda ahead of your personal agenda?
So here’s my question: In a current environment where Iran has proclaimed it’s right to pursue Nuclear Technology, and North Korea is firing Nuclear Missiles, are you as elected Republicans going to allow the Democrats to cut funding for missile defense, as they have historically done in the past? Nancy Pelosi – “The United States does not need a multi-billion-dollar national missile defense against the possibility of a nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missile.”
Now is a GREAT time for the Conservative base to put together a point by point positive list of what it is that we need to do, and what it is that we stand for. The GOP leadership needs to understand that you can’t make everyone happy, and you can’t get everyone’s support, even in your own party, on every issue. They need to understand that if they get most of it right, we will support them. We want what will be considered the greatest good for this nation, not just single issues that we get fired up about. Leave the “Hot Button” shit to the Democrats who have to work off of emotion, because they can’t offer anything headier.
What’s the worst that can happen…really…we might lose the majority in both the House and the Senate?! That’s crazy talk.
Leave the “hot button shit” to Democrats, who want the Ten Commandments on display in government buildings, who fight to get prayer in public schools, who want to add an amendment to the Constitution banning gay marriage, who want to overturn Roe v. Wade?
Ok, leave it to the Democrats…Ha!
Oh yeah, and making it a crime to burn the flag, abandoning habeus corpus, torturing anyone who someone merely thinks might be a possible suspect, going to war under false pretenses…
You qwack me up!
Whoops, let’s not forget good ol’ fashion Wiretapping!
“Hot Button” enough for ya? Oh, I KILL me sometimes…(dabbing tears), my my…..sigh. (Stout, Thanks for the sigh!)
Once again defining what you are against…instead of what you’re for. Without Democrats, Republicans would still be Republicans, without Republicans…how would Democrats know what to stand for…I mean, what would they stand against? I really don’t think that you truly realize how well you make my points for me with your ramblings.
Whatever you say there, Stout Hypocrite. After all, you talk in this post as if the Republicans lost your support and need to change their direction in order for them to get it back. Ha…and then. No no no, and THEN!…you say you wish to avoid the Hot Button issues and leave them to the Democrats…these said issues that only the Republicans have brought up themselves over these past 6 years?
HA HAHA HAHAHAH HA HA HA HHAHAHAH AH HAHAHHAHAHAH AH HA HAHA n’ stuff.
…I almost forgot,
Guffaw!
And, I had to mention the fact that you call these “things I’m against (as a Democrat, you imply)”, and yet they’re already law! T’is not the Democrats that are trying to change a thing there. It’s those laws that the Republicans…sorry sorry, THESE Republicans are all against!
Sweet Lord have MERcy!
Sigh…
If you had read my post before jumping into attack mode…you might notice the part where I say:
.
Of course they have my support, just like you as an admitted “Independent” give your unquestioning support to the DNC.
Why do I even try to explain things to you…when you simply scan…pick one choice phrase and attack. I think I’m done with this one…seeing as it was a post about asking Republicans how to establish a new plan that takes that party back to it’s core values (small government, personal accountability) through grassroots discourse with it’s registered members, I don’t see what you have to contribute anyways. It’s not like anything would satiate your bloodlust to bait and attack.
Have a goodnight Practically Predictable.
Have a good one!
Dear SiR,
Dang you partially scooping my post topic!!!
We need to tell “them” what we want “them” to do and remember the one hard and fast rule of PoliSci, people get the government they deserve. If one cannot measure save with the ends of a ruler, only small things measure without difficulty.
