What happened? How did the Republican Party end up on the outside looking in? Well; can we say stupid? Can we say arrogance? Can we say forgotten ideology? The list is almost endless. Corruption played a major factor in their defeat. For Pete’s sake get back to the right side of center and stay there! You cannot compromise and accept abortion; you can’t accept homosexuality as Republican policy and cater to the lobbyists who push this agenda. Can you accept same sex marriage? Because the Republicans have compromised their positions on several key issues, have they been driven back into the wilderness for another 40 years? Slow learners here if they are!
So what has transpired that the wilderness condition is now upon the Republican Party? They have lost their compass, their vision, and their ideology. The party that should be representing the USA majority’s true beliefs has failed their constituency. Conservative America is fed up with their continual shift away from conservative ways and thoughts. So they sent you a message! Did you get it? Personally; I will no longer offer financial assistance to the Republican Party until they return to the party’s true core concepts. This past election cycle, I supported Senator Santorum in a losing cause. I was (and still am) offended that more support for this fine Senator was not offered by the Republican Party. The Democrat that won couldn’t carry Senator Santorum’s lunch pail. Pathetic replacement that one!
This wandering party only needs to seek previous winners and their winning philosophies. Such a one can be found in President Ronald Reagan. If this apostate party really wants to keep at least the office of the President, this is where you must go. And while you are seeking sources of wisdom and reclamation; the Bible would help many of those poor floundering souls that think homosexuality just happens, or those congressional pages are fair game, or perhaps those lobbyist bribes are can be accepted and are the reward for doing the people’s business. The Republican Party cannot be the party of corruption, that position is already occupied by the Democratic Party.
Granted; many House and Senate members were placed in compromising positions by pressures from the White House and other sources. But; this is where true character can be measured. Compromise is the Devil’s business, and anyone who caves into it against party lines; is measured as such. Has the Republican Party decomposed beyond redemption? Not quite! There is still hope, but this will require a gigantic effort by all to resell the Republican Party to voters in 2008’s election for president. Maybe; like Israel coming to the Promised Land the first time. That only took two years but; because of failure on the participants part; they were driven back into the wilderness for thirty-eight more years. The total-forty years overall-a long time to wander in the wilderness!
