GOP: Lead, Follow, or Get Out of the Way!
By D. Parker

The Republican party has three choices.  It can lead in a resurgence of individual liberty, follow grassroots state organizations in victory...or get out of the way.

"There's something happening here, But what it is ain't exactly clear"

—"For What It's Worth," Buffalo Springfield (1966)

Lead

Consider these items of the past few days in light of the "projected" commie tsunami that was nothing more than a tiny wave in the cesspool that is the "Democratic" party.

Rising star Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) recently urged the fossilized faction of the Republican party to "stop accepting the rhetoric of the left in the media [and] instead, go on offense."

Quote
"Democrats want to kill our country, but on November 9 it is wake-up day for Republicans and they better gird their loins because we are going to hold Republicans accountable to fight for the American people," he added.

Tulsi Gabbard is leaving the nation's socialist "Democratic" party and its divisive, anti-liberty agenda.

The fossilized faction of the Republican Party needs to look at these events and the trends in polling despite the nation's socialist media's usual tricks and consider what can happen if the party can resist shooting itself in the foot for a few days.  Looking at you Lindsey, Mitt, and Mitch.

To paraphrase the saying, they have one job, and that's the leadership of the party.  It's not to compromise with the collectivists or negotiate some of our rights away, only to have them come back later with more demands to diminish our liberty.

Something is happening, and all of the cruelties mentioned in the song "For What It's Worth" are coming from the anti-liberty authoritarians of the fascist far left, from the war-mongering to throwing people in jail for peaceful protests.

So, for Mitch, and the rest of the folks in the fossilized faction of the GOP, it's time for some good old-fashioned leadership.  It's time to stand up for the Bill of Rights and our basic freedoms and liberties.  They need to embrace the concepts in the Commitment to America and then go beyond this to restore our liberty and basic civil rights that have been under constant assault by the anti-liberty left.  They need to stop compromising with collectivists that arguably want to destroy the country and democracy.

We get the feeling that they don't want to win, for reasons unknown.

That must be why they rejected the Tea Party movement, and why they rejected President Trump.

Perhaps they wanted good press from people who hate the pro-freedom right, so they thought throwing the game will engender glowing articles about "bipartisanship" and willingness to compromise.

Well, we need to let them in on a little secret: leftists are liars.  It's why both words start with an "L," and they have sinister connotations.  If they can't find it within themselves to do their one job, they have two others.  But to quote one of the greatest movies of all time, failure is not an option.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

How about just going by this:

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

You all swore to this, now keep your oath.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
