The Establishment Better Wake Up or Be Left Behind

As County Chair of the Republican Party of my county, I am so proud to be a conservative Patriot surrounded by other conservative Patriots. 

When Ms. O'Donnell won the primary race in Delaware, the response from the establishment Republicans was surprising.  I did not expect that, but my reaction when I heard it was...the National Party is at it again. I am not a big fan of some of the things they do at that level.  I was glad when Senator Cornyn with the NRSC corrected the stance that they were supposedly taking.  Officially, I would not even consider NOT supporting what I refer to as MY candidates.  As a supporter of the Constitution as it was intended by the signers, I believe that when "we, the people" vote, then that's the way it is.  They have spoken. 

(Even when I don't like the results, as in Obama's case, I believe that it must be changed in the next election or go through impeachment proceedings as the Constitution allows.  So I ran for County Chair and decided to educate "we, the people" on how we can change things.)

So what does it take to show establishment Republicans that "we, the people" are fed up to here with the same old politics?!?  Continue to elect the best conservative Republican for the job.  If that is an establishment Republican, so be it, but if it is a new-to-politics candidate, even better.  Politics, the way they have been, are not working.  We don't want the same thing in the next session.  We want people in there who will listen to the will of the people and know that we know how to take care of ourselves apart from government intervention.

I support the Republican Party, especially the Republican Party of Texas, wholeheartedly, or I would not be County Chair.  I chose this party because its State platform is conservative and shares the same values that I have.  I was originally impressed with the Tea Party movement although I was apprehensive because I knew we could not afford to have a third party come into the fray or we would lose everything to the liberals.  I hope to continue to encourage grassroots supported candidates to come into the Republican Party.  We must be the Party of Conservative Values.  Those values are the only thing that will save this country.

I will go on record with Palin and DeMint and say to the establishment Republicans that you better get with the program or you will fall behind as the "sleeping giant" of conservative voters continues to rise up and make noise.

Even Fox News, as conservative and supportive as they are of the grassroots, do not completely understand the movement. Tea Parties are making noise, but there are a lot of people not being heard vocally who will definitely be heard in the upcoming election.  I think after all these months of trying to wake up the sleeping giant of apathy, that we are finally beginning to be aware of the tip of the iceberg as seen in the Tea Parties.  But you must remember that the Tea Parties arose from the grassroots, not visa versa, so there are many, many more out there who don't take on a label.

We, as the Republican Party, absolutely must encourage these voters to come into our party and we absolutely must have the courage, as the Local, State and National Party to say yes, we are the Party of Conservative Values! Come on!  Let's take our country back!

  1. Good post my friend - I agree with your words and as you have heard me say the National Republican Party and all the RINOS and liberal leaning participants need to be weeded out - we need to dismantle the Republican elephant piece by piece and vote out those who don't listen to "we, the people" and stand for the documents put forth by our founding fathers and this includes any Texas candidates as well. It is past time to TAKE BACK AMERICA!!
    Your friend Bob
