Conservatives Must Elevate Their Objectives

It is not enough to simply win conservative seats in Congress in the next election.  Conservatives must begin now to take the message out that will subordinate the aggressive push made by radical liberals over the past few years that led to the congressional majority and to the election of a radical liberal to the White House.  Newly invigorated grass roots conservatives will be able to elect enough conservative candidates to Congress to create a stalemate through the 2012 elections, which will be a welcome safety against the radical policies and legislation that are currently coming from the empowered left.  But, to contain the on-going radical assault and to begin a move back to conservative principles, and to allow the economy to recover, there must be a clear and distinct voice coming from conservatives that is more that a defense against accusations made by the left to confuse voters and conservatives.  The liberal machine has been well-planned and organized to confuse and manipulate the issues to give their candidates an advantage against conservatives, who are still campaigning in traditional ways to traditional voter audiences.  The result is that voters have no idea what a liberal candidate actually believes, but are easily convinced that the conservative opponent is the enemy of the people, because the same accusations are made and repeated in many places, including the complicit  general media.  No one yet is clear on what Barack Obama's real objectives are, after 2 years of constant campaigning and 11 months in office, but they are convinced that he is the Messiah, that George W. Bush is the worst president in history, and that Sarah Palin is even worse, because the liberal machine said so. 

To make matters worse, the Republicans who would be leaders are almost without a voice, partly due to the traditional, tired old message they employ to communicate with voters, partly due to their loss of focus on traditional conservative values, but largely due to the effect of the same liberal machinery that demonized Bush.  The liberals, including Obama, no doubt believe that this machinery, and the deception it employs, can produce the same results in 2010 and 2012 that they had in 2006 and 2008.  And they could be right, if nothing is done to expose and explain this new strategy to the general voting public. 

But, we should not forget that the voters who make the difference are honest Americans who also are being duped by the liberals, and that they, too, expect simple honesty from their elected officials.  These are the voters of the "moderate middle"--the "swing voters"--who are basically independent.   They may be Democrats and even have some liberal beliefs, but they don't want to be lied to, they don't want Socialism, and they don't want to radically change America.  And they were lied to in the 2008 Presidential election, and they are being lied to by the radical liberals in Congress and by the general media.  Herein lies the opportunity for conservatives to do what we do best: tell the simple truth to the huge majority of Americans who want to know the truth; and return to the policies of representing the middle class, and to preserving and refreshing understanding of the Constitution.  Forget the small voter group that is radically liberal--they are children, dissidents, and celebrities.  They are non-producers in the real economy, they are always present, and can't be changed.  Explain to the conservative candidates what we expect from them; and, expect to find new candidates when the old ones refuse to refocus and abandon their special interest benefactors.  This will take some time, but we too, like the radical liberals, must have a plan.  But, our plan has an advantage--it benefits the majority of the American people.

There is a serious challenge to the American Republic and to the traditional values that most Americans value, even if they aren't readily aware of those values much of the time.  This is a fully aggressive effort by Socialists to forever change the American system to something that most Americans will not want when they realize the intent.  Most Americans want and expect a vibrant economy.  But, our economy will not recover under the policies of the current liberal Congress and the radical Obama administration--it is not possible to create a vibrant economy in a wildly expanding government that opposes business and the creation of wealth.

It is not sufficient to lament the demise of the great American system with its superior economy, freedoms, and individual opportunities--it must not happen.  And, the responsibility to change the current debacle is largely in the hands of average Americans--as it has always been.

What Are Obama's Objectives?

To "fundamentally change the United States of America"--we know that much for sure.  And, his actions so far, and the people he keeps around him, is a pretty clear indication of what those changes are--changes that will make America into something we don't want.
It makes no difference at this point if Obama was born in the US, or on the moon--his election, without question, is potentially the most destructive thing that has ever occurred in the US.
There is no doubt in my mind that his intent is to destroy the free market system, pervert our justice system, confuse, confound, and otherwise create as much unrest as possible among the citizens of the US, including taking the economy as low as possible.  That is the way that a well-organized Marxist operation would be carried out in a free society such as the US.  It is amazing to me that the questions regarding his intent are just now being asked; and, even very conservative voices are still being cautious not to seem unfair or extreme.
This is the time that we win or lose the Republic.  And, we won't win it by arguing with liberals--they are lost and can't be found.  We allowed this to happen.  We have become so comfortable and so unconcerned that we allowed control of the country to be taken over at every level by people who have no concept of the meaning of the Constitution--their interests are personal and shallow.  
We all have a sense that the disaster has already occurred and is irrevocable--that too, is what Marxists want us to think.  But, remember that this is the US--we have a very, very good foundation to work from--the Constitution.
In reality, the disaster that is occurring now is not because we have a shrewd, deceitful President, it is because we allowed a majority of weak-minded liberals to take control of the Congress.  The power that is being used by the Obama administration is from the huge appropriations of money that are lying all around as left-overs from the earlier "crises", and from additional bills going through Congress, which become the tools for Obama's people to use as they want
in "change".
We have only one tool available to us to stop this disaster and to return to an American Republic--the vote.  The people in Congress, and Obama, assume that we are so stupid that we will forget by next November and buy into the election machine that they will, no doubt, bring out by Summer.  We need to become activists for getting the "moderate middle" to wake up and stop voting for people who are "cool", who have "experience", and whose name they recognize, and because they feel they, too, "deserve" government help. If we can put a majority of non-liberals into Congress next Nov., then Obama's source of power will be cut off--no money, and he will become powerless to stop the return of the economy, starting in 2011.  
But, if we fail to do this, the future of the Republic doesn't look good, and will be very hard to recover with the current people in control for many more years.
There may even be some Democrats in Washington now who will listen to a loud voice to stop this "change" that is going on.
Cheers
