Are we going to have an opposition?

I hope we have a solid opposition in congress.  The conservative movement is not dead.  We are here in spades in the blogosphere, but we are not out in the public.  The education system in this country has lost its ability to create informed citizens.  We are going to lose our ability to have individual freedom in this country if we don’t fight them. 

The Democrats have no plan.  We need to stand in the way as much as possible.  I think we need to pull a 1993 and refuse to cooperate as much as possible.  Make this the Democrats’ recession.  Make this the Democrats’ failure.

Conservatives need to point out once again that government is not the maker of a great nation.  That the culture of the people makes the nation great.  The administration will not affirm this, and I fear that without a Jesse Helms or a Phil Gramm in the senate, or a Newt or DeLay in the House, we will blithely let the Democrats have the so-called bi-partisanship.

We need to stiffen the Republican spine.  Let’s get to work. Then we can have the joy of an election day in the future.

    it is time to stand upon principle. I have written my congressmen and told them this (2 GOP senators and 1 GOP representative). We all need to MAKE OUR VOICES HEARD to those who represent us!! There are a few who are already heading down the wrong path (Hatch, Graham, Alexander, and others) – we have to let them know how important it is to get on board. United we stand, divided we fall. Period.

    All of the Democrats are power-hungry and extrmemely jealous. They never play well together, as they usually act in their own best self-interest. I don’t think that figures like Feinstein, Pelosi, Rangel, and Reid are going to sit in the backseat sitting quietly while Obama/Emanuel/RichieDaley do the driving and navigating.
