the TOWN HALL weblog

We the People don’t matter.   Duly elected officials don’t matter.  Life, Liberty and Property can be snatched at the whim of anyone who gets themselves a fancy black robe.   Other than liberating Iraq and Afghanistan the longest effect that President Bush will have in this world will be Alito and Roberts. 

If you want to keep what little bit of the Constitution we have don’t sit on your hands, don’t cast a protest vote, don’t join anyone’s chaos.  Conservative judges are not a luxury we can afford to lose.    If you can’t vote for McCain then vote against the Bader-Ginsburg that Obama/Clinton will find.  Because We The People can go to the ballot box again and again and insist we want no affirmative action, no benefits for illegals, no gay marriage.  And frankly my dear the guys in the robes just don’t give a damn.  Liberal judges are despots and must be stopped.   Without Conservative judges we are not a Democratic Republic.

The men that Democratic congressmen say are equivalent to Hussein’s torturers, and writers  of Lost say are worse, were flying in emergency aid to the people of Burma this week.  http://www.mysinchew.com/node/11486?tid=37.   Their military dictators hate us of course, but the US Marine were there to help and save lives.  Of course, that’s what they do God Bless Them.

All over the internet and on “conservative” talk radio the same song is playing.  The GOP is bad, the GOP is in trouble, the GOP deserves to lose.  

Can we get a grip for a minute and remember what the Democratic party has been doing for the last 7 years.  We have had democrats on the floor of the US Congress say that American soldiers are raping and torturing civilians, accusing the American soldier of being as bad as Nazis or Islamists.  We have the leadership of the Senate declare a war lost while American Soldiers were on the field of combat killing and being killed.  We have the Speaker of the House of Representatives supplicate herself before the leader of a terrorist state and lie about what was said.  We are at war and the Democratic leadership would rather see Americans killed then support the President at a time of National crisis.  Almost from the moment the Twin Towers collapsed the Democratic Party has aided and abetted the enemy and attacked those fighting for our life and freedom. 

But it is the GOP that must be punished.  I am taking my copy of the Reflections and going home.  I will be back to say “I told you so” when President Obama/Clinton sits idly by as Americans and our allies are butchered.

While unpacking our suitcases I found that each of them had been “randomly” searched by the TSA.  There were little notices in each suitcase explaining that our bag had been selected for a random search.   They must have been so suspicous when they found a copy of Reflections on the Revolution in France in one of my suitcases they decided to search the other two.  

On the way to Northern California the Burkean Daddy was flagged for a random search.  While the Young Prince and I were waiting for daddy, he naturally wanted to know why daddy was being searched.  I told him they just randomly select certain passengers to hand search, I didn’t want to give any politically in-correct explanations in front of the security people.  But a woman who was putting her shoes on said to the Prince “because we can’t do profiling.”  I smiled at her and said “yep exactly.”  That is just one of the many things we bitter Americans say to each other that no one in the media or government would dare to suggest out loud. 

Oh and that bitter profiling comment was made at LAX, in that most blue of blue cities.

The Founder of the Soldier’s Angels program, which provides gift packages to service members serving in the Middle East, was voted America’s Favorite Mom.   This was in one of those ubiquitous reality shows I don’t watch, but I got an e-mail today from Soldier’s Angels letting me know that Patti-Patton Bader won the contest.  While Hollywood rushes to make movies about Sheehan, this of course is the mom that America wants to hear more about.   Congratulations Patti, thank you for what you do for those who sacrifice everything for US.  http://americasfavoritemom.com/mothers-day-2008/mom/Patti-P-3418#

Yesterday our web master and I were discussing compassionate conservatism, which I insist and always have insisted, is just playing into liberal hands. Compassionate conservatism we have since learned is big government conservatism (which I could have told you back on 00 when I didn’t vote for W. in the primaries.) A person can be compassionate, because a person can take money out of their own pocket and give to those in need. But a government can NOT be compassionate because a government doesn’t have any money in any of its pockets. All a government can do is pick the taxpayers pocket and give that money to the currently favored few.

Clearly the Corner is reading our private IMs because today Andy McCarthy points out what chumps compassionate conservatism has turned us into.

I felt an obligation to help less fortunate people who were in need. So I sent money to the Red Cross because the Red Cross is a reputable outfit with a good reputation help to the people who need it.

Afterwards, I got so angry at the boondoggle government spending, which inevitably rewarded (and continues to reward) the worst tendencies, I ended up annoyed at myself for contributing — in the name of “compassion,” the government is going to spend goo-gobs of your money anyway, and waste aplenty.

Exactly! When government robs Peter to pay Paul, who is committing fraud, it doesn’t bring out the compassion in Peter, it makes Peter bitter and stingy. Compassionate government is a mythical creature. A Compassionate Conservatism would be a philosophy calling for less government and more of people keeping their hard earned money.. you know what we used to call just plain conservatism.
