The battle for the Republican Party rages on. The battle is to get real conservatives doing the business of government along conservative lines, which means they support a peaceful disintegration of the global American military empire, and a government that is out of your pocketbook, out of your bedroom, out of your children’s lives, and out of your life. They must have respect for a budget and work to reduce taxes and government spending. Real conservatives appreciate government that provides only the basic services put forth by the founders, and one that is properly constrained by, and wholly respects, the Constitution. Real conservatives love the ideas put forth in the constitution, and they like the idea of a constitutional Republic. They really do.
The battle is raging within the party itself and is being waged between the embedded professional politicians and republican legislators who listen to the conservative American majority.
The battle is not being fought over religion and a bottomless pit of debt. It is over the ideology of smaller government and a return to the principals of the founding fathers. I hope real conservatives will rise up to save their party, but it is going to be an uphill battle against the republican leadership. Unfortunately, the leadership won the battle during the 2008 election. This resulted in the nomination of McCain/Palin and the reactionary election of Barak Obama.
Hopefully the conservatives can win the war. If they can, great. If they are not successful, I can only hope that the rise in an independent party comes quickly enough to stop the liberal tide of socialism from becoming a Tsunami.
