Hunting For A RINO

Tony Lee on Breitbart News reports:
                   
Former Arkansas Republican Gov. Mike Huckabee, who has been slammed for raising taxes, commuting the sentence of a prisoner who ended up committing murder, and failing to successfully take on conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh, wants to outlaw the term "RINO."

Oh!  The poor baby!

In the context of inner-party politics the term is applied to Huckabee and other Establishment Republicans who’ve shown a tendency to compromise with Democrats or otherwise failed to stand up for conservative principles. In practice the RINO fails to understand that any act of compromise with the opposition negates the entire point of electing a Republican to an office.

Huckabee specifically stated:

One term that I’d like to see outlawed from the vernacular of the party is 'RINO...It stands for Republicans in Name Only, and it’s a pejorative term that questions the authenticity and orthodoxy of someone’s party purity. I’ve been called that myself, even though I fought in the trenches of Republican politics for over two decades. Even so, I would never pretend that I’m Lord over determining who the real Republicans are.


Even though I’m brain damaged I do understand the point of having an opposition party.  But apparently Huckabee refuses to see it.

It is very clear to every rational citizen that the Democratic Party is wrong on every core issue and is Hellbent on the pursuit of unrestrained power at the expense of The People. 

He also said:

Personally, I think someone who agrees with me 90% of the time is not my enemy.


In effect Huckabee is a Pragmatist whose fundamental goal and value is power.  The negative impact of compromise has no meaning to him.  All that matters is being elected.

That absolute fact is that compromise with evil empowers evil.  By stating that he is willing to compromise with the enemy he is admitting to being part of the problem.

But now his feelings are hurt by being seen as being part of the problem.

That’s too bad.  Huckabee chose to be an enemy of The People and The Constitution.  He deserves no better that to be treated as such.

What are your questions on this block of instruction?

Betrayal Of Trust

In the short editorial piece published in USA Today, Representative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin begins by saying in large text:

Military compensation reform controversy simply can't deter us from doing the right thing.

There’s a meaning of "right" in the real world and unfortunately there is a different meaning for the word in the puzzle palaces of Washington.

Ryan furthermore continues by saying:

The Bipartisan Budget Act that Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., and I drafted will soon become law. We think it's a small step toward fiscal discipline in Washington.

Really?

Fiscal discipline ended in the Federal Government with the establishment of the Federal Reserve system and the income tax.  The first necessary step in restoring fiscal discipline is to shut down the Federal Reserve System, return to the issuance of a fully gold backed Dollar, and repeal the income tax.  In short the return to the Gold Standard and clearly limited taxation.  This will in turn will halt the inflation of prices for goods and services paid by the both the private sector and all levels of government.

Through this the inevitable increases in the Federal budget can be brought to a halt.

In addition to the practical issues that I just addressed there is a moral issue. A promise was made to young men and women to put their lives at mortal risk during the healthiest and most productive years of those lives.  We as a nation have an unbreakable obligation to keep that promise.

There is simply no excuse to violate this promise made in our name.

Now one may ask, if the solution to the problems of inflation and the budget deficit is so simple why wont it be implemented?

Because the Federal Reserve System and the income tax were established to facilitate the transfer of wealth from the rightful owners to the politically favored.  The program of the so-called Progressive Era is essentially a sophisticated system of subjugation and plunder, the barbarian mode of life. 

The legalized process of plunder is used to enrich the political class and their close supports and to buy the votes needed to empower them.  They need us to be under their control. The fact of the matter is that Representative Paul Ryan is a full member of the “bipartisan” ruling class.  His claim to have been influenced by Ayn Rand was shown during the last election and his present open compromise with the open looters to be a complete lie. 

If we as a people are to restore command over our own lives then we must begin by fully separating ourselves from the “bipartisan” ruling class.  To this end I have stepped up as a candidate for the office of President of the United States, independently of any party affiliation.
