cross-linking and related-submaterials (at least, IMO) are helpful as I always try to be mindful that NEWBIES come and go all the time and I hope they find them helpful since I started doing it a month or so ago after being challenged by a “ploy” (bad tactic at that) about providing such to topics we’ve already discussed regarding any variety of topics/subject-matter/quotes/etc….. So I’ve started to try and keep some of the better “discussions” (not just links to my Diaries, but usually a conversation I’ve been involved in (of course, or I’d otherwise not have been aware of the discussion - shame I have to point that would otherwise be OBVIOUS to most but others might try and “suggest” it is a matter of my ego or something)) and the link to them handy for use in other discussions. So when folks try to suggest “No-one here has…. blah, blah, blah…” I can hopefully point back to where someone has said such and dispatch the dellusion trying to be perpetrated/maintained - plus, and again, as “support” or places to drill down to for more/additional in-depth thoughts on any given and/or semi-related materials.

Thanks again! It’s NOT about “US” but about convincing others and providing an environment others will want to refer friends, neighbors, enemies, to for Facts and well thought out positions to refute Liberals/Democrats with.

I’ll stop there, I’ve got so many links saved off I can’t possibly share them all in one spot. And, of course, countless great things are being created/said in the Members Diaries List on a Daily basis.

The 7 month time-frame from the creation of this Diary is irrelevant because until Republicans wake up, and they won’t if we do not keep reminding them …. so let me break for another reminder:

[from Conservative Candidates (the Diary)]
the “Republican Revolution” of the 90’s was mis-labeled, it was really the “CONSERVATIVE Revolution” and it brought Republicans to power; likewise, it was the “Reagan Conservative” Revolution, not a Republican Revolution. Many Republicans forgot that along the way. That led the way for CINO Democrats to lie their way back into power, but it was a “Conservative” co-opted (read: they lied about their intent) that voters allowed themselves to be duped into. Republicans need to REMEMBER that! Conservatism did NOT lose Elections, bad Politicians (with R’s beside their name) did!

back on point, though that wasn’t really a variation from point (Conservatism), is that we must remind Republicans that a return to those things not accomplished under the Contract should be revisited and fought for!!!! That message will remain pertinant until they again “GET IT” (hopefully by 2010)!!!
