Important Truckers Forum Notice!

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

USA Conservatives issue GOP ultimatum

July 07, 2008
No Permanent GOP Minority

By Robert Novak

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- When House Republican leaders left Washington for their Fourth of July break, they felt good about outwitting the Democratic majority. The feeling was not reciprocated 3,000 miles away, where conservative California Republican activists were drafting an ultimatum. The Lincoln Club of Orange County is telling GOP leaders of both the House and Senate that it is too late to repent. They must go -- or else lose big money.

The message: "Come Nov. 5, should the current GOP leadership in either house survive to lead in a new Congress, the Lincoln Club of Orange County will review the financial backing of all congressional Republicans, and we urge others to do likewise. A GOP caucus that would re-elect such leaders is not one we would likely continue to support. Because, simply put, we refuse to support a permanent minority."

Good. I have been saying for years, the conservatives need to take over the republican party and throw all the RINO's out.Its the only way to get this country back on track. OH, as well most of the democrats.

Neoconservatism is the political philosophy that emerged in rejection of liberalism and the New Left counter-culture of the 1960s.

As a term, neoconservative first was used derisively by democrat socialist Michael Harrington to identify a group of people (who called themselves liberal) as newly conservative ex-liberals. The term stuck, because it is accurate and because neoconservatives accepted that they are conservative.

this neds to happen in both parties. However as far as the GOP goes, one group will hardly have a big impact as they will find new donors.

It's about time a group of people stood up and gave these nitwits in DC an ultimatum. They need to be reminded that they are accountable to the people, and ultimately they work for us. The mentality that they need to tell us how to run our lives and that they know what's best for us is perposterous.
