We try to usually stick with Catholic matters on this blog but the whole  financial crisis / bailout fiasco these past couple of weeks has just gotten me so angry I am going to vent here.
Let’s do a little review of how we got here.
I’m su…

my “non-political” wife was reading the blog at home & phoned me to fix it!

“non-political” wife, wow! Yay!!

… Look at it this way: if we start now, sending 1 letter/day telling these people we’re going to work to have them elected to act truely in accord with the Documents of Inception, then we’ll watch every single vote, and if they don’t vote in accord with the Founding Fathers, we’ll endure their challenger for 1cycle just to wake the others up!

Tell them we’re voting LOTE, but
this is the last time. If they vote unconstitutionally on anything, regardless of how many fires are around them, regardless of size of the item – he11, even to get penny-candy in the Visitor’s Cente!r – they’re out!

AND WE RUTHLESSLY FOLLOW THROUGH!

The Dems won’t, (for the most part), change their habits. Most Repurbs won’t, either. At 1st. But after a cycle, maybe 2, they will.

The “everyday” letter doesn’t have to be long, it could just be a postcard. Something along the lines: “Reelection comes eventually. Do you like your job?”. As long as it isn’t a form letter-looking deal.

Anyway, after a sleepless night, sitting here at Dad’s bedside thinking and talking to him, that’s what I thought of.

I’m filling out the paperwork to resign my Commission. I’ll turn them in Monday. It can take upto 6months.

I’ll have my idea fleshed out on Dad’s blog by Friday next, I’ve been given 2 weeks downtime. I’ll also bring Dad’s status upto date. I know, promises, etc. My job has had exCONUS a lot these last few weeks. That (almost certainly) won’t happen for the next 2 weeks.

Well, as LDS, we have a World Conf. broadcast today & tomorrow. I’m gone until Monday late afternoon.

PLEASE, people: feedback on my above proposal? I am certain it will work, but I’m also certain with input it can be improved!

NOTHING is more removed from the truth. I haven’t had time to analyze it yet, but I strongly suspect these Dems are in troublesome districts and up for reelection!

While party must no longer keep them safe, remember that Dem’s grip on individual members is much tighter than the Redubs’ — at this point.

THAT IS THE FRUIT OF McCain/Feingold! Its WHOLE purpose was to tie Reps & Senators closely to the party, make them as depndent on the party for election funds as a well-fare recipient is enslaved to the well-fare handout.

McTraitorToTheConstitution knew, that GWB loves the “new tone”-ers, and so would work even harder to show these wayward ones (like Chaffee) even more “love & forgiveness”. This would allow McCarbonTax to skate on his backstabbin’ ways.

And McZero was right: GWB, at the last minute pulled TV advert funds from Sen. Sessions (PA)[not at home, can't confirm it was him, but it was the Consev. Sen. from PA...] — who had been a good soldier except on GWB’s amnesty — and sent it to Chaffee’s reelection bid for last minute spots… 4 days before election. I remember Dad telling some of his friends in broadcasting were bent-up because the spots had been sold for months, and now these prime spots were begging.

What I’m saying is: look at the man’s entire record. If he’s a Dem, look twice. Make friends with a staffmember. If that man’s a Dem., let him know if he does what’s right you’ll go to the wall for him – to makeup for his party’s shortsightedness.

And we must start NOW: start a 3rd party. A 4th party. Get them elected, starting at schoolboards, workup to Governers, then Congress.

We may have to LOTE this election, because after this, at ANY COST we must deny the Dems/MSM the win. Look at it this way: if we start now, sending 1 letter/day telling our these people we’re going to t
