Republicans Divided

The Republican Party is divided at the top and throughout its levels. 

At the top, the folks who write the Platform and the Resolutions are aligned with voters who wish to restore the 10^th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and free the U.S. from destructive entanglements with the U.N. and the global cabal. This includes the Liberty, Tea Party, 912 and other conservative groups.  My instincts tell me that this wing is the “silent majority”

The other group at the top chooses the Republican Presidential candidates, manages their campaigns and ensures that say so little, they lose. This is not a happy combination. My instincts tell me that this is the RINO wing whose job is to not disturb our march to socialism continued by successions of Democrat and RINO Presidents since 1913.

Most of our elected Republican officials are RINOs.  They are there to either be silent or to actively help Democrats push us to full-blown socialism.  Federal spending is out of control and printed money has already produced more inflation than is officially reported, as it always will with commodities.

Republicans whine that we must elect them to save us, but they are not using all the power of the House of Representatives and the States that they have to push back the ruinous spending and mal-investment that comes with federal bribery grants.

The current crop of legislators in Congress were brought up with the idea that their job was to engage in “horse-trading” to “bring home the bacon”.  That meant that they would promise to vote for a colleague’s bad bill if they would vote for theirs’. They won campaign contributions from special interests in payment for pushing through their Bill.  These corrupt practices kept legislators busy and the Liberal Agenda slithered its way through each Congress and they’re winning.  If our out-of-control federal spending isn’t severely reduced soon, we will simply go broke, default and become a third world communist colony of the U.N.   There can be no bi-partisanship or negotiating with global Marxists.

Our U.S. economy was founded on freedom and merit.  After 100 years of eroding freedom to further the goals of special interest groups, we have become Europe, with a big intrusive government, no freedom and deficit spending.  Government has proven itself to be unwilling and incompetent to function in a free market system.

The model conservatives prefer is the Constitution (as written).  That would limit the federal government back to its original charter and allow federal spending to be cut in half to match its current revenue. The problem is that “some Republicans” will resist that change with everything they’ve got.  I would tell those RINO politicians to run as Democrats and would fire the Presidential candidate pickers.

You will hear “lip service” statements from Republican candidates about the Constitution and sovereignty and free enterprise, but the best confirmation is their voting record. Another test is their position on global warming; if they way it’s a hoax, they might be alright.  There is a clear divide between real defense capability and military foreign aid we need to eliminate. These candidates should know what to strengthen and what to cut and be able to answer your questions.

It’s also clear that the candidate who raises the most money probably isn’t the one you want to vote for.  Special interests will fight the “house cleaning” I’m suggesting, but voters can beat the special interests if they do their homework.

We need legislation to close federal departments and transfer unconstitutional functions to the States and the People.  We also need to admit that this must begin soon.
