All you will ever need to know about why Republicans are no less socialist than Democrats

Is right here on the national Republican website.

The e-mail I got directing me to the site said this (italics mine):

Dear ,

Two years ago, Senator Ben Nelson cut a deal and caved to party pressure by giving the Democrats the 60th vote needed to ram through Barack Obama's $2.5 trillion government-run health care bill.

Senator Nelson cut that backroom deal with Harry Reid -- to get the infamous Cornhusker Kickback -- even though he knew it cut Medicare by $500 billion, raised taxes by $500 billion, and was opposed by a strong majority of Nebraskans.

Of course when the political pressure mounted, he started backtracking.

Yet recently he proclaimed that he "wouldn't change his vote" and that he was proud to be the man that made government-run health care the law of the land.

This is the sort of statist nonsense you'd expect from a radio pitchman like Marxist Levin.

Do these people think you're so stupid that you don't know that Medicare is government-run health care?

Or are they so stupid they think Medicare is not government-run health care?

Either way, when they imply they won't cut Medicare that's an admission they have no intention of ever balancing the budget. It can't be done without big cuts in the military and Medicare.

And by the way, they say they won't cut the military either.

Republicans Cannibalize Gingrich

Republicans Cannibalize Gingrich

Posted by Gary December 16th According to Martha T. Moore at the USA TODAY, GOP criticism of Newt Gingrich is mounting. In a recently released article she reported on leading Republican figures who stated,
"I don't think he has the mental discipline, the consistency or the ego control to be a good nominee or a good president," says Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y
"He's a little bit like a sober Charlie Sheen," says Rep. Steven LaTourette of Ohio, who came to Congress in Gingrich's 1994 Republican surge. "He just kind of shouts stuff out."
Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma said, he is "not inclined" to support Gingrich's bid because it was "lacking."
Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad told the Associated Press, "I think he's a great idea person; I have a lot of respect for him. But whether he has the discipline and the focus, I don't know."

The Real Illegal Immigration Problem

Two More Reasons to Say "Thanks" Before Waving Good-Bye to the US »
The Real Illegal Immigration Problem
Wednesday, December 14, 2011 at 2:13PM

As with all US Federal Government election cycles, the topic of illegal immigration always comes up.

But, with Mexican nationals now leaving the US and returning to Mexico en masse to take advantage of Mexico's preferable economy and greater freedoms, the light should be shone upon all the Americans living illegally throughout the world.

In Mexico, hundreds of thousands of Americans live illegally, as last counted by Mexican officials in the 1990s and that number has likely grown. Many of them disregard and overstay their 6 month tourist visa, preferring to live in the country for extended periods. The majority of Americans living illegally in Mexico do not cause major problems other than drinking an inordinate amount of Corona beers and shocking the locals by shooting shots of tequila rather than sipping, which is the custom. As well, many do not learn to speak the local language, a state of affairs that causes no one to get very angry.

AMERICAN ILLEGALS IN THE MIDDLE EAST

But, it is not in Mexico where the great majority of the American illegal immigrants are causing big problems. Tens of thousands of illegal immigrants entered into Iraq and Afghanistan in the early 2000s. All are gangmembers, in the world's largest gang known as the DoD. They can be identified by their similar haircuts and wearing the gang colors of green or light brown camoflauge.

These illegal immigrants have caused untold destruction in the countries they have immigrated to. In Iraq, estimates are that they have killed as few as 110,600 according to Absolute Propaganda (AP) and as many as over one million as estimated by Opinion Research. In Afghanistan, over 10,000 innocent Afghanis were killed by American illegal immigrants between 2007-2010.

The Afghan government has repeatedly pleaded with the illegals to stop killing their people. But the killing continues. Many in the DoD gang have been brainwashed into the cult and believe they are killing the locals because the locals hate them for their freedom.

Making matters worse, the illegals do not even participate in the local economy, bringing zero net economic benefit.

AMERICAN ILLEGALS IN JAPAN

American illegals cause problems throughout the world. Illegal immigrants in Okinawa Japan have been involved in 5,584 criminal cases including 559 cases of murder, burglary and rape. The most recent examples of American illegal immigrant criminal activity in Okinawa are as follow:

- In September 1995, three DoD gangmembers raped an elementary school girl. This led to a huge gathering of prefectural residents in October 1995, with 85,000 residents participating.
- In October 1998, a high school girl was run down and killed by a drunken DoD gangmember.
- In June 2001, there was rape case by a US illegal immigrant.
- In November 2002, there was an attempted rape case by an illegal American.
- In May 2003, a DoD gangmember in Okinawa raped a woman, resulting in extensive injuries.
- In July 2005, a US illegal in Okinawa indecently assaulted an elementary school girl.
- In February 2008, a US illegal was suspected in the assault of a junior high school girl.

A HISTORY OF DESTRUCTIVE AMERICAN ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

Illegal American immigration has caused millions of deaths worldwide over the decades. Hundreds of thousands of Cambodians and Laotians were indiscriminately bombed by American illegal alien terrorists in the 1970s and millions were killed in Vietnam when illegal immigrants from the US were brainwashed by the DoD gang into thinking they had to "fight communism" - a strange state of affairs as now the US is a Fasco-Communist country with communist style central planning control over the economy.

Clearly the scourge of American illegal immigration has caused untold death and destruction throughout countless countries. Is it not time that the focus on illegal immigration focuses on the epidemic levels of unwanted American illegal immigration throughout the world?

Re: A Silly Attack on Ron Paul

Ron Paul is like the crazy uncle that up north, everyone hides in their basement. Down here in the South, we prop up our crazy relatives right out on the front porch for all the world to see.

That's, of course, not surprising, especially since Paul is now in the top position in the Iowa polls. But at the very least, you would expect the attacks to have some substance to them. Unfortunately, such is not the case with conservative pundit Jonah Goldberg, who has just published one of the silliest attacks on Paul that one could ever imagine.

Their primary objective is to get reelected, and if that means flip-flopping, then they're going to be doing lots and lots of flip-flopping as public opinion shifts.
> > Take the drug war, for instance, perhaps the most failed, immoral, and destructive domestic program in U.S. history, a war that Paul and other libertarians have long opposed. Most members of Congress continue to support it, but only because they think it would be political suicide to call for drug legalization. If public opinion were all of a sudden to embrace the libertarian position, the members of Congress would be doing so as well.
> > Yesterday, I was at the Fox News studioto appearon "Freedom Watch" to comment on the Ron Paul surge in Iowa. After I had done the segment and was preparing to leave, a man in the waiting room told me that Ron Paul needed to water down his foreign policy views if he expected to get elected. It wasn't exactly the same argument as Goldberg's but it was a variation.
> > Like Goldberg, that guy just doesn't get it. As a libertarian, Ron Paul has a certain set of beliefs and convictions. If he changed them or watered them down in order to get elected, he'd be no different from any other politician. What makes Paul differentindeed, what makes libertarians different from statistsis that libertarians won't abandon their principles for the sake of expediency.
> > Moreover, what that guy fails to realize is such integrity is one of the reasons that people are surging to Paul's campaign. They're sick and tired of politicians who change their positions in accordance with how the political winds are blowing. Equally important, if Ron Paul were to become like other politicians, he knows that he would very quickly lose his base of passionate and committed supporters.
