The Day After

That is a mouthfull!

Well said. It is tragic that this perception is out there about the GOP. The party that I know, the party of Reagan and Bush is not the way it has been portrayed by the conservative media. It is a party that believes that every human being is equal in the eyes of God and should have equal protection under the law.

If the "loud voices" take over the party, it's curtains for the GOP! Bush fought so hard to increase the Hispanic and black vote. Those gains have been dashed. The polls among both groups now are back in the Democrat camp.

I'm so sad to see this happen. As you said, the GOP can't win with only the "angry white male vote."

I think Ingraham

should form her own party...what ya think?

Funny how she isn't pushing Tancredo huh? But then again, maybe the object is for Laura to be the center of attention.

Pray Sandra.

I am.

Ingraham

should run for President, if she is so smart!

I am praying! At least Rush seems to have started coming around to the way he used to be.

Your Column and Mine

Sanity and Sandra: You are very wise women. I want to digest Sanity's superb column and write more about it.

As for moi: I have a terrible time trying to post on TH -- or edit, or do much of anything. I post "mirror posts" on my blogspot site, which mainly exists to keep me from being totally frustrated. It's at; http://camp2008victoryA.blogspot.com. Don't forget the "A" after victory. I have reprinted my column in the comment section -- all I could access -- on the townhall site (http://camp2008victoryA.townhall.com). I am very critical of Townhall as an institution and of many of its "frequent commenters." There is a real need to "cleanse" the Party and to start re-thinking just about everything. That process is already taking place in various quarter, and it is one of the driving forces behind the Palin campaign. In today's column, I'm "hard" on Bruce, who recommended Joe Lieberman as a good VP candidate on a "national unity" ticket. I think Sen. Lieberman would be an absolutely awful choice, an exercise in cynicism rather a real effort to respond to criticisms of "politics as usual."

Sanity, I hope you're recovering well from your "episode." I always benefit greatly from your insights.

I hate to tell you honey but your link doesn't work!

says..."page cannot be found" !

Sorry.

Most Americans are not black

I suspect a higher percentage of Blacks favor border security first than whites.

I never said most Americans were Black

I said most Americans were NOT White...they are Black, Hispanic, Oriental, Asian AND all those listed under "minority"

And you don't have to "suspect" anything. Just look at the MAJOR candidates in BOTH parties...they have the best political anaylsis in the nation whose job it is to KNOW what the American people want and care about.

Now...how many of the top tier in the GOP is for deporting the 12 million illegals?

And how many in the Dem camp is for deporting the 12 million illegals?

And who are the two candidates carrying the "border issue" banner...Tancredo and Hunter...and they are where in ALL the polls?

In otherwords...the ONLY chance this issue has of ever turning out the way you absolutist want is if the zero to nothing chance candidates win the primary and then the General.

Do you comprehend exactly what the talk show hosts fought and gave you? The SAME amnesty that Reagan gave us...the "just enforce the laws" that Newt's Congress did NOTHING about...that allowed 3 million illegals to grow to possibly 12 million (who knows) and how many more by the time anyone dares touch this issue again.



Sanity, Will Be Back

Sanity, I'll check into it and get back to you. Curses!


I need to put a contract out on Townhall. I go into the create/edit post (reached through "Manage Your Blog") and the "font" is stuck, making it impossible to create (or paste, which I usually do). This is the kind of failure that the Townhall computer geeks (if they have any) must prevent at all costs, but they don't.

Sanity, Try This

This is "a Great mystery."

The site on blogspot.com is called Campaign2008VictoryA.

If you put the following in your browser's go to place, you should get there and be able to bookmark it. It may be the "small letters" that are the key.

http://camp2008victorya.blogspot.com/

Tell me how it goes! I'll keep trying to finesses Townhall, but I'm growing weary of the site, which has too many absolutists for my taste.

steve

Sanity, click on link above

Sanity, if you click on the link in the comment above, it should take you there. I tried it, and it worked.

Okay, request: give me your e-mail address, and I promise not to misuse it or sell it to the Tancredo campaign. I also promise not to offer you any great Florida real estate deals.

Mine is: TalkTop65@aol.com.

Sanity, Got What You Sent

Sanity, got what you sent, but my response got rejected by the gateway! Modern life is getting too complicated. I will get back to you on Elephantman's blog link. I'll try to send again and see if I can trick the gateway into accepting it.

PalinforVP Link & E-Mail

Okay, here's Elephantman's link:

http://palinforvp.blogspot.com/

His site does contain new information, and I very much support the directions he's proposing.

The link should work!

His e-mail address is: palinforvp@gmail.com

There is media interest in what's going on with the Palin Movement. The Anchorage Daily News and one TV station in Alaska have expressed interest and there are a lot of "hits" from Alaska people on palin's site and apparently many of the others (because of the links).

Lot's Going On

Sanity, I replied to the nice comments you and Sandra made on my blog.

On the Palin front, please see Hugh Hewitt's link below, as well as Madeline's Dad's site.

A great new Palin site is: http://palintology.com/
If you want, send the editor a letter (she's an Alaskan) and tell her "Steve sent me."
