I'm glad that people are finally coming to that conclusion. If we want to have any real success, then we need to tell people what we stand for -- not just "we're not them." And if the right people keep insisting on this, then the party will have no choice but to spell out its views.<br /><br />And you're right about this moment presenting the clearest difference between liberals and conservatives in a generation. The liberals have been talking like conservatives and "moderates" for years, but now that they had the power, they finally showed their true colors and drove the public away like they had the plague.<br /><br />And the Republicans have been blurring the line for years as well, but now that the public is pushing them -- it's time for a return to genuine conservatism.<br /><br />These could be very good times!AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-59463724606485431552010-07-13T19:41:01.503-04:002010-07-13T19:41:01.503-04:00I’d like to reach across the aisle and slap the do...I’d like to reach across the aisle and slap the dog spit out of a few these Washington weasels!<br /> <br />Definitely, bipartisanship means we lose - - the American taxpayer, and the press only likes it when it behooves them. My concern is our team, the left is in a circular firing squad, leave’em to it. We must, as you pointed out the other day in your article, “The Republican Agenda 2010,” …have an opposing agenda, that points out the glaring differences between liberals, and conservatives. At no time in my life has the dividing line been so bright, maybe Nixon/McGovern in ’72. The point is, this is an opportunity that must not be squandered with tepid Washington politicians playing nice, with people that hate you, the left.<br /><br />As an aside, the day you put out “R. Agenda” Rush talked about it later that day, and Newt Gingrich on Hannity that evening…great minds right!StanHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07395708786509590321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-6285096664535619602010-07-13T17:49:29.108-04:002010-07-13T17:49:29.108-04:00Jed, Same here.

I would rather have both sides competing to prove that they are right than trying to compromise their principles just for the sake of getting something done.<br /><br />And think about it, would we tell scientists to compromise? You think gravity is X, he thinks it's Y, why not call it Z? We don't tell doctors to meet the disease halfway.

It, along with the Electoral College, are the last remnants of the Founders' brilliant plan to balance the will of popular majorities against the will of the states. Governments, like automobiles, need both engines and brakes. When the progressives managed to convince people that Senators should be elected by popular vote instead of state appointment, the only thing left of the previous, better system was the filibuster. Democrats comprehend "the will of the majority," but don't appreciate "protection of the minority." Currently, they think their job is to thwart the will of the majority, but will be talking up protection of the minority as they quickly become that minority.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-90702172860456775002010-07-13T16:52:21.308-04:002010-07-13T16:52:21.308-04:00Andrew,
