   “However, it has become apparent during this process that this will not work for me as I have found that on issues such as the stimulus package and the Census there are irresolvable conflicts for me. Prior to accepting this post, we had discussed these and other potential differences, but unfortunately we did not adequately focus on these concerns. We are functioning from a different set of views on many critical items of policy

   The time to organize was months ago! Conservatives should be doing what moveon.org is doing only with our message. We need a conservative version of George Soros and we all need to donate ourselves to take our country back peacefully. Otherwise at this point, the only way with be with weapons, and only then if we do it before hussein has time to organize HIS National Security.

   And also there should be plenty of conservatives willing to serve in that so if push comes to shove you can help from within!

   Melting phone lines and stamping money is an absurd way of protesting at this stage of the game.

   WHAT are we waiting for????

   Michelle – People like you and Ann Coulter have wide enough audiences to recruit for something like a conservative moveon.org. We need to flood the airwaves, TV and Cable. Expose these crooks and propose better plans.

   60 second spots. Begin with Schumer’s oily dismissal of the chattering classes. Then on to Pelosi’s ‘no earmarks. Then a list visually and verbally of the most egregious earmarks and their costs. Then Reid’s explanation for why they aren’t calling them earmarks. Then a comment pulling that together in a pithy statement. Then say the projected amount you, your children and their children will have to pay. And end with the fact there is a better solution that is all job-creation and no pork or earmarks, but Reid and Pelosi won’t allow it. Then end with the phone number to the Capitol, Schumer’s, Reid and pelosi’s offices.

    His true ethics are showing! Way to go Senator Gregg. However, this scares me. Looks as if the Executive Branch is becoming the ruling branch. The census is exactly how the democrats will maintain their power for a generation. Rahm will establish the “fuzzy math” that Pompterbama wants established that will only benefit the welfare class. We need to sue and get this to the Supreme court as soon as possible.

    I really wonder if the democrats realize that we have a constitution. Hell the swear on a bible to uphold it. All they’re doing is stomping on it and setting it ablaze. Saul Alinski is having a blast watching this from his grave.

    Conservatives and Independents need to repudiate this Marxist coup and all the minions associated with it. Come the 2010 mid-terms, the people need to stamp out this treachery once and for all. Constitutional amendments limiting Leftist/Communist adventurism (fair tax, balanced budget) would be a nice legislative start – since the present construct has been totally corrupted.

    Thanks to Gregg but he should never have tried to dance with the Devil.

    There must be some wealthy people who “lean right”. If they want to be discreet so as not to be ostracized by their leftist friends, so be it.

    I would gladly be the right’s “sugar mama”, if I could. It’s true, the playing field needs to be evened out when it comes to financial backing.

    Just saw the headlines on Drudge. Read between the lines: He didn’t cave in to the Obamamamamama Glow that is all warm and fuzzy and tingly (a feeling that runs up the leg, I suppose). They didn’t trust him with the Census, which is what that position is supposed to be about, and which they stated that they just didn’t think it would be handled correctly.

    A small step in the right direction, but the tide has to be stemmed, and one small ripple can lead to others, larger and larger, until a Conservative Tsunami flows back onto this power-grubbing gubmint.

    I mean he is obviously doing the right thing by declining the appointment. But, why would he EVER have considered it in the first place?

    RINOs are funny animals. Do you think his move will have any influence on the other sell-out RINOs in the Senate and convince them to change their vote on the “Euthanasia Act of 2009?”

    Brian Roastbeef: you might be right. Spector’s are reportedly fearing 2010 already. I don’t see how switching to independent helps him get re-elected though other than keeping his name on the final ballot should he lose the GOP primary. He was barely re-elected last time because of the sympathy vote for his cancer battle and because Bush campaigned for him.

    I am sensing that fear is setting in with even the Dem supporters of porkulus. Why else would Obama be on the hustings? There aren’t enough GOP votes to kill it as it is unless a few Dems have already voiced dismay privately and laid out certain conditions that might force them to vote against it… like phones melting down for instance.

    Typical Republican:

    According to MSNBC’s John Yang, all indications are that Judd Gregg didn’t even tell the White House that he had decided to withdraw his name from consideration for the cabinet before announcing it publicly.

    Gregg also released his statement just as President Obama was about to speak at the Caterpillar plant in Peoria, Illinois. (Caterpillar has said that as soon as the stimulus is signed into law, it can begin rehiring laid-off workers.)

    All this strongly suggests that Gregg’s move was calculated partisan politics, and it underscores this fundamental truth of modern politics: the Republican Party can not, and will not, put partisan politics aside for the good of the country.

    With near unanimity, they are utterly incapable of compromise.

    He’s a dumb as you people _ was wondering who would send these people to govern – Obama tried and look at how Gregg responded.

    Do as I say or you are a partisan hack. Only by agreeing 100% with democrats will you get the label “bipartisan”. No conservative ideas are ever to be allowed.

    UH OH……..do NOT cross The Chosen One ie: THE ONE! THE OBAMUNNIST!

    Narcissistic rage will be coming your way Mr Gregg! The Chicago Thugster World President has many ways to pay you back.

    Having said this…..thank you poking him in the eye.

    I guess Gregg was showing his Taliban/Republican credentials.

    You’re grasping at straws but since you brought up Taliban tactics, I would suggest Ms. Pelosi and Mr. Reid are demonstrating their eager discipleship quite well in actual practice – far better than any conservative hyperbolic jesting.

    And by the way, change your stupid handle, you don’t love your country. If you did, you would stand against the present Marxists in power. Their goal is to dismantle your country.

    How about a source. There is no way that they can start rehiring “as soon as the stimulus is signed into law”. If that was the case they did not need to lay off as many as they did if any. The money does not start flowing the second the bill is signed.

    He’s a dumb as you people

    Don’t worry about making a simple spelling mistake while calling others dumb and looking like an idiot.

    Maybe he simply did not care to be associated with what appear to be illegal acts (re: Rahm Emmanuel and his attempt at circumventing the Constitutional requirement over the administration of the US Bureau of the Census)?

    If Specter loses a primary, he doesn’t get reelected. If he jumps parties, makes a deal with the Dems so they don’t run anybody hard on the left, then he stands something of a chance of winning as Lieberman did a couple of years back. Hopefully whatever Specter does bites him in the rear, but I’m just saying I wouldn’t be surprised.

    I liked this line from Gregg, on Drudge.

    ‘I may have embarrassed myself but hopefully not [the president]‘…

    Nah, Judd, don’t worry. The President can embarrass himself without your contribution.

    And Presidential run?! Who is saying this and are they kidding?! He only just went out and got himself a big boy spine. Let’s not get too carried away…

    I surely hope so. They’ll have another chance (at least as far as Congress is concerned) in 2010.

    Partisan politics? The little sock puppet is boldly trying to corrupt the census itself so as to jerrymander power for generations! This is positively Orwellian stuff. Gregg or any American would be crazy to stay in that post! Even loyal liberal Democrats are slack-jawed at the aggressive political malfeasance of this administration and its congressional partners in crime.
