• No Filibuster: Senate Votes to Move Forward on Gun Bill

  Assuming you are correct, I am sick of “strategic” moves by the GOP, the party is terrible at chess. What it usually means is “compromise” and that of course translates into the left getting 70+ % of what they want with a promise to get the remaining 30% later.

  It’s time for the Grand Old Party to start standing their ground and standing on principle!

  Classically Liberal, Founding Fathers, Conservative, Constitutional Principles. In other words, libertarian freedom deeply rooted in a nation that reads and adheres the the standards set forth in the Bible.

  “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion . . . Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” John Adams

• Have Conservatives Lost Colorado for Good, and Will America Follow?

  In reply to a_grunt_of_civilwar II.

  Good for you, though don’t discount us middle aged and older veterans. Someone is going to have to lead you younger grunts in the defense of liberty.

  But the more accurate reason why the communist will loose, taking a quote from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolored Colored Dream Coat, “Don’t give up Joseph. Fight ’til you drop. We’ve read the book and you come out on top.”

• Have Conservatives Lost Colorado for Good, and Will America Follow?

  Colorado’s problems, as I see them (as a tea party member living here) are:
  1. “The Blue Print”: Colorado was selected to flop. It was planned and carried out very well. The Dems got the state supreme court which now rules in their favor and is responsible for gerrymandering our districts making it harder to win elections.
  2. ICLE and Agenda 21, several of our college towns are now card carrying members.
  3. Socially liberal Libertarianism. In the recent Gallop pole, Colorado barely missed the bottom 10 of least religious states. It’s a lot easier to win the social battles as a Dem if the “Republicans” agree with you. I’ve heard local “conservative” radio host supporting civil unions, legalizing marijuana, and even a “pro choice” stance. I agree with David Barton when he said, if you can compromise on life, you can compromise on anything.

  I’m also a firm believer in the words of John Adam’s
  “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” John Adams, Address to the Military, October 11, 1798

  What makes a conservative conservative and is a red state red if it supports social liberalism? See Colorado for the answer.

• Which Famed Christian Pastor Just Issued This Shocking Gay Marriage Endorsement?

  March 19, 2013 at 1:10pm

  #26 and #27 from Cleon Skowsen’s List of Communist Goals Contained in “The Naked Communist” (Written in 1958)

  26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
  27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.”

  Check and Check.

  “…and I think the ship has sailed and I think the church needs to just — this is the world we’re living in and we need to affirm people wherever they are.”

  What does this say about where we are?

• This Revealing Chart Shows You Exactly What the Calif. Exodus Looks Like

  March 14, 2013 at 4:11pm

  In reply to hi.

  How about we kick CA out of the US and then deport all the transplants that can’t pass a US Citizenship test based on the Constitution, Free Markets, and Liberty?

  For that matter we could do the same to New England and much of the East coast. I would hate to loose the original 13, but it’s obvious they have “progressed” far beyond the rest of us.

• The Texas Demographics Chart That Will Excite Democrats, Scare Republicans

  March 14, 2013 at 11:50am

  I think it’s sad that white America now believes 3 kids is a large family. Children are a blessing from God. Each one is a unique joy. Please don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to judge anyone, each family is between God and the parents, I just think it’s sad that we have let ourselves get to a state of mind where we believe 3 kids is too many.

• S.E. Cupp Pulls Out of CPAC Until Groups Representing Gay Republicans Are Embraced

  February 27, 2013 at 6:44pm

  When did conservative equal only “fiscal” conservative? It seems, anymore, when we speak of “conservatives” we are only talking about fiscally, so we can include libertarians under the same tent. But more & more I’m convinced that seeking only fiscal conservationism will not save our country. I am getting tired of the argument that Republicans can not address social issues or we will loose. Guess what, we are loosing. Maybe it’s time to take a moral stand. If we fail, at least we fail defending what we believe instead of compromising.

  Consider the words of Isiah, a warning today just as much as to the northern (lost) tribes of Israel:

  Isaiah 1:10
  10: Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.

  Isaiah 1:9
  9: The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.

  Isaiah 13:19
  19: And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees’ excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

  If the founding fathers were libertarian, it was confined by a strong belief in the principles of Natures God.

• Do You Know the Real History of Kwanzaa? Here’s What It’s All About

  December 19, 2012 at 1:08pm

  Has anyone else noticed that our school choir or band performances these days have at least one Hanukkah song, at least one Kwanzaa (or African / Swahili sounding song) and one “Winter Festival” type song (think Jingle Bells, or anything to do with snow), after all we don’t want to offend anyone. Which is why they also rarely get to perform actual Christmas songs that contain religious symbols or mention Christ.

  Or may be I just see conspiracies everywhere these days ;-)

• Ellen DeGeneres’ Christmas Ad Sparks Conservative Protest: ‘Christians Must Now Vote With Their Wallets’

  In reply to kadster01.

  I agree, the message being presented isn’t about her sexuality, it’s about a popular talk show host / comedian selling product (nothing news worthy here, they all do it). Just like Macy’s message wasn’t about Donald Trumps Politics. I do however have a problem when JCP crosses that line and makes sexuality the message as has been done this last summer with two “Dad’s” playing with their son in some of their news paper adds. Top that off with their implications behind the add having two tweens dressing, that’s why I choose not to shop at JCP.
