Always count on you, NH.

BTW, I would not be opposed to undercover gunrunning by our covert agencies, if it hurts enemies that hurt our folk. If this gunrunning would develop legs, it would probably be quashed in the name of security, and Bush would probably be in there backing up Obama. It's sausage making up there.

For me, it's all about exposing and delegitimizing Obama; anything to negate the man's political power. He is not a leader who persuades, inspires, unites, and motivates the populous toward fair and practical solutions to our complex societal problems.....he employs the 'Alinsky/Chicago politics' model, and strong arms an ignorant and duped electorate. Bait and switch, with all manner of promises that can never be fulfilled; at least not in a flailing economy, crippled by his regulation and anti-energy policy. He's sewing the seeds for societal antipathy.

And this is so destructive to our nation, in that if honest politics is abandoned...then the alternative is unthinkable. And inexcusable...but for good people standing by and doing nothing. But they don't care. Obama foolishly thinks he can control the (cloward-piven) engineered collapse; worst political gambit in American political history. His foolheartiness will harm many.

I want to see Obama face the evidence of his action, and justify it. For once. But I won't be holding my breath. I wholeheartedly embrace every single day of life...every glass of clean water...every fruit off my vines, and family and animals, and the blessings of a good and challenging life. Things that are out of my control...are simply...'challenges'.

Be well.

I have no problem with a party using the issues of the day to fundraise.

On another subject, I like that change in attitude I am seeing from the GOP House. It is about time they grew a bit of a backbone and started taking on the opposition instead of quaking in fear of the media.

To those of you advising the Repubs to moderate their stances on the issues because they will turn off voters, I say that you have swallowed the medias talking points hook line and sinker.

Bob Dole, John Mc Cain and Mitt Romney were not tea party candidates. And they ran campaigns that tried not to offend the moderates. And they got their heads handed to them on election day.

This time,run an aggressive campaign. Stand up for your principles do not apologize for them and be assertive and take the press head on when they start the inevitable smear tactics. People hate the media,a lot. Make them an issue.

If its Hillary for the Dems, do not handle her with kid gloves. Make her take positions on issues. Question her qualifications,after all,what has she accomplished in her time in public service? Anyone?

I want the GOP on offense this time,and maybe,just maybe,they are figuring that out. Offend Blacks Gays and Hispanics? Most of that is feigned by the media anyway, plus the majority of those groups are NOT going to vote for you. Stand up,show some courage, and let the chips fall where they may.
