Why not The Republican Liberty Caucus ?

Why not? Lessee.

Welcome to my nightmare — where Conservative values and Constitutional governance are called “fringe,” “nutty,” and people who advocate it are compared to Neville Chamberlain.

Ah, you’re one of those “REAL” conservatives. We always hear about you guys.

I guess Reagan was a “Chamberlain” too, since he “waved the white flag” at terrorists in Lebanon and brought our troops home.

Ah…I see where this is going. Reagan had enough on his plate dealing with the Commies, he punted. Everybody else punted too, we paid for it.

Note, not all conflicts are the same. We fought WWI, WWII and the Cold War all much differently. But for some reason, some people have a hard time wrapping their heads around that. We’re dealing with a new problem and a new enemy…surprise! There’s a learning period involved in creating a new strategy!

I hope this “Reagan21 caucus” is more than an invocation of his name in order to further the warped so-called “neo-con” brand of Conservatism popularized by Bush and his cronies.

Neocons! Can you throw in something like Chimpy McFlightsuit to go in with that? Just gives it a more natural moonbatty flavored flow, and makes it easier for everyone else to ignore you.

How about:

- Strong defense
- Extricate ourselves from entangling foreign alliances and engagements

And we get to the real heart of it, PaleoCon codespeak, Operation Screw The Jews.

What the fark is with you Paleocons? Why do you have such a raging fixation on seeing the Israelis pushed into the sea?

I’m all about reducing government and increasing liberty, which you paleolibertine types are rightly angry about, but you sickos lose me here on this Israel deal every time. And don’t kid yourself, that’s what it is for most of you.

Like Michelle said, “They’ve got big shoes to fill. Here’s hoping…”

Isn’t it ironic that the GOP has to start a conservative, Reagan caucus? I thought they were supposed to already be that way by default.

How about:

- Strong defense
- Extricate ourselves from entangling foreign alliances and engagements
- Low taxes
- Small government
- Protect our borders and national sovereignty
- Protect life and liberty

That sounds like something that would make Reagan proud — but none of the “leading” Republican candidates is advocating all of that. Heck… they’re not even advocating half of it!

Real conservatism means fiscal responsibility, not the relentless drives for tax breaks for the rich that leads to ever greater deficits and unfunded liabilities. As tax-and-spend has had its day, so also is borrow-and-spend Bush/Reagan economics a dead end.

Introducing the Reagan21 Caucus by Michelle Malkin reports on a new Congressional group of GOP House and Senate members who are rededicating themselves to the principles and values of President Ronald Reagan. It’s about time the Congress GOP did somet…

Americans are crying out for leadership with courage, principle, and integrity

This is such pointless, vanilla crap. Who would ever argue against courage, leadership, principle, integrity, security etc…

It’s the way that those things are defined and road one will take to get there that seperate liberals from conservatives. Lets hear some concrete policy proposals and mission statements…so far it looks like this caucus is just recycling the same lame poltical language as everyone else.

Senator, you are my hero. I will be a big part of your re-election campaign here in SC. Keep up the good work

The news of the Reagan21 caucus is the greatest breath of fresh air I’ve inhaled since the great man was president.

But Reagan21 shouldn’t be limited to just a few senators – it should be a coherent national movement. I want In, and I’m sure that millions of others across the nation would want to join in supporting a return to the American ideals so wonderfully personified in Ronald Reagan.

Michelle, would you please go to these senators and tell them this? That there are millions of us who want to be part of returning our country to its true nobility as the land of the free and the home of the brave?

I haven’t a clue as to how this can happen, but I promise to do whatever I can to help. As far as I can see, it’s our last best hope. What do you say?

All the best, Sean O’

Nice guy, solid credentials, but loves to spend money.
