It seems that even though people are not happy with Obama's policies, his ratings are still high. <br /><br />What you say about moderate Republicans is true. The moderates have brought the GOP down and that all of our problems did not start with Obama. I am not going to defend them. I'm more po'd at the Republicans than the Dems. But if we don't speak out and make the case for conservative leaders, how else will we get them?<br /><br />Somebody has to point out Obama's destructive policies. The MSM isn't going to do it...they work for him.<br /><br />Hopefully, if we speak LOUD enough on some issues, our reps will have to listen and act once in a while. It may cost them their jobs if they don't. Example...the Dems won't fund Obama's Guantanamo closing until he shows them his plan. This is because they know their constituents do no want terrorists brought to the U.S. They can't go along with Obama on this one without a good explanation to bring home to their voters.<br /><br />Maybe some true conservative leaders will be encouraged to run for office if they see the discontent of the voters.<br /><br />It's about time the silent majority wakes up and takes action. It may not work all of the time, but if it works occasionally, that's better than nothing. And if we have to suffer the failures of the Obama policies to learn a lesson, then maybe the next time we'll vote with our brains instead of our desire for "change" at any cost.<br />We have to start somewhere. <br /><br />More than anything, we need conservative leaders who can speak in complete sentences, can get the conservative message out and who believe in their hearts what they say and practice what they preach.<br /><br />Whew...I'm out of breath.The Conservative Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669596582233642119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-52917188832667114112009-05-21T20:32:03.291-04:002009-05-21T20:32:03.291-04:00"I do see him as a hardcore ideologue mascarading ...<I>"I do see him as a hardcore ideologue mascarading as a moderate."</I> (Clifton B)<br /><<br /><<br />He IS certainly that.<br /><br />But he's far more effective and dangerous than the typical Liberal. He is a very effective communicator....far better than the likes of AlGore, John Kerry, Joe Biden, etc.<br /><br />The challenge of Obama is that he must be challenged in a very different way than the traditional Liberal.<br /><br />In fact, his policies will have to fail before his popularity fades.<br /><br />The MSM was able to effectively blame Supply Side economics for the failures of Keynesian policies.<br /><br /><br />TCL, what far too many Conservatives don't get is that Obama is merely continuing, albeit ramping up G W Bush's Keynesian policies!<br /><br />G W Bush was as disastrously Keynesian as his Dad (only the 2nd post-WW II US President to preside over four stright years of double-digit Misery Indexes) and Richard ("We are all Keynesians now") Nixon.<br /><br />That has been Conservatism's downfall, this ill-fated partnership with the GOP's Moderate/Rockefeller-wing.<br /><br />I'm afraid that until more of us understand that, the solution's going to remain out of reach.<br /><br />The Keynesianism of the last 8 yrs has put us in the position where Obama's hyper-Keynesianism will have to fail before they can be effectively challenged and ultimately changed.JMKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281344324964417974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-21438024975688052172009-05-21T16:38:08.911-04:002009-05-21T16:38:08.911-04:00TCL:

He uses the language of conservatism to mask his socialist beliefs. Truth be told, he is rather good at it too. <br /><br />Fortunately, his actions betray his words and it is the consequences of those action that will be his undoing.<br /><br />All that said, he is significantly better than others on the list with Hillary and Gates as possible acceptions.Clifton Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273941007555823028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-44105158659925302772009-05-21T15:55:58.573-04:002009-05-21T15:55:58.573-04:00Obama is a statist, and if you read Mark Levin's b...Obama is a statist, and if you read Mark Levin's book (Liberty and Tyranny) you'll find that his kind of liberalism is not NEW (although he does spin it better than most, as you said). It's been going on for years, slowly taking over our country and it has finally reached the point where it has total power. It's going to be a hard job to turn it around because it's infiltrated our educational system.<br />As for Obama being "evil"...I think Obama's policies are "evil". They are going to destroy America as we have always known it. They are ruining the American people, taking away their freedoms and liberties; making our country a welfare state that will be hard to turn around. <br />His actions are making our country less safe, too...did you listen to his speech today? You say you don't see Obama as "evil", but do you think he is naive? Do you feel more safe after listening to his plans for the terrorists and our national security? I sure don't.<br />So, whether people think Obama is evil or not, I believe his actions are "evil" and we must call them as we see them. For conservatives to be silent in the midst of Obama destroying our country is to hasten our demise.<br />"Bush Derangement Syndrome" was the result of the liberal's HATE for President Bush because they think he stole the election. Therefore, they would not support him in anything he did. Conservatives are not emulating BDS. The difference is that conservatives FEAR the "change" Obama has promised because his MOTIVES will lead us to socialism/facism. I think it's more dangerous not to speak out. As a matter of fact, I think it's our duty.The Conservative Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669596582233642119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-43781369537504165832009-05-21T14:32:45.266-04:002009-05-21T14:32:45.266-04:00Absolutely right!
