I’m tired of hearing the deceptive and misguided refrain from democrats, mainstream media critics and party minions that in order for republicans to bounce back they need to be more “moderate.” Recent evidence demonstrates the exact opposite. Was John McCain moderate enough for you? Obama himself (and many other democrats) was elected in part because he “appeared” to move more to the center. He talked a good “centrist” game. Words from him and other politicians are meaningless without actions to back it up. In fact, we must only look at this administration’s actions and turn a deaf ear to the verbal rhetoric. We need only look at comments he made In his most recent prime time news conference last week in which he said he didn’t want large government intrusion. His actions provide evidence of the exact opposite. Detroit auto workers, banks, and his upcoming plans to nationalize healthcare are good examples of how liberal actions don’t align with his “centrist” remarks.
And another thing, are the American people too deceived to see that the democrats hold very extremist views and policies? Is abortion not extreme when it destroys 1.2 million lives each year? Can someone explain to me how we moderate our values on abortion? Is the sanctioning and support of gay marriages moderate? Will the Iranian,and North Korean governments moderate on their pursuit of nuclear weapons? Will the Islamic jihadist swear not to behead those they capture or vow not to destroy Israel if we negotiate with them? Will someone tell me where to find a moderate member of the Taliban? Does government takeover of banks car manufacturers and redistribution of wealth signal moderation? What about jurists and appointees Obama wants to seat on the supreme court who make decisions not based on legal grounds, justice, or the constitution but rather on what Obama describes as someone who can empathize with the downtrodden? Are not the global warming crusades an extremist religion? What about the leftist group PETA (People for the ethical treatment of animals) who splash blood on furs being worn by people of a different persuasion? Have you ever disagreed with a liberal? It’s not pretty and it’s never accepted. What part of Michael Moore is moderate?
I’m not a fan of beauty pageants but look what happened recently to Miss California when asked about gay marriage. She said it was her belief that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. She was crucified in the media and believes she lost the pageant because of her response. Look at how the Palin’s have been maligned and made fun of by the media. Why? She has conservative values and her views are not accepted by the group who claims to be so “open minded” and accepting. Hogwash.
Republicans are not “rightwingers.” They’re trying to make nice with the liberal democrats.
When conservative principles are heralded, and not compromised, data shows that the majority of voting America has conservative values. Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney have recently embarked on a “listening” tour with the American people touting the goal of uncovering new ways and winning strategies for the republican party asking “what went wrong?” What we need is a real leader to go on a “teaching” tour and help Americans see that conservative principles and values remain steadfast and shouldn’t have to be compromised.
