Large Scale Central

Republicans, the New Taliban!?!

General Discussion
#1

The latest case of Hill Foot in Mouth Disease is from Pete Sessions, (R-TX), chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee. Sessions said House Republicans will pitch a “positive, loyal opposition”, to the proposal. The group, he added, should also “understand insurgency” in implementing efforts to offer alternatives. “Insurgency, we understand perhaps a little bit more because of the Taliban”, “And that is that they went about systematically understanding how to disrupt and change a person’s entire processes. And these Taliban – I’m not trying to say the Republican Party is the Taliban. No, that’s not what we’re saying. I’m saying an example of how you go about [sic] is to change a person from their messaging to their operations to their frontline message. And we need to understand that insurgency may be required when the other side, the House leadership, does not follow the same commands, which we entered the game with.”
Nice to see the GOP has a good ole American role model to get their party back on track! :stuck_out_tongue:

Seven Principles of the Constitution Party are:

  1. Life: For all human beings, from conception to natural death;
  2. Liberty: Freedom of conscience and actions for the self-governed individual;
  3. Family: One husband and one wife with their children as divinely instituted;
  4. Property: Each individual’s right to own and steward personal property without government burden;
  5. Constitution: and Bill of Rights interpreted according to the actual intent of the Founding Fathers;
  6. States’ Rights: Everything not specifically delegated by the Constitution to the federal government, nor prohibited by the Constitution to the states, is reserved to the states or to the people;
  7. American Sovereignty: American government committed to the protection of the borders, trade, and common defense of Americans, and not entangled in foreign alliances.

The Democrats and Republicans have squandered the Founders’ legacy of liberty and justice under the Constitution. Countless government officials in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government ignore their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.

Join the Constitution Party in its work to restore our government to its Constitutional limits and our law to its Biblical foundations

I don’t think any reasonable and intelligent person would associate the Republican party or any of its members of Congress with the Taliban. On the other hand, two of the MOST prominent members of the Democrat party–Hillary Clinton AND Barrack Obama ARE associated with Saul Alinsky, one of the most radical American leftists of all time. Both are considered as mentors of the same. Then there are the other radical bomb-throwing connections of Barrack. You know what I mean. My point should be obvious. This partisan tactic of smearing at this level is nothing less than the HEIGHT of hypocrisy.

Hehe! We have a Democratic controlled House, a Democratic controlled Senate and a Democratic White House. Of course the left is yet unhappy because there remains an opposing point of view.

What this means is that no matter what happens it’s still all Bush’s fault and/or that devil Cheney and his cronies.

I'm certainly not a scholar of the U.S. Constitution so perhaps I missed this part in my U.S. History classes. Where in the U.S. Constitution does it state "Family: One husband and one wife . . .?"

Also, where in the U.S. Constitution is the part about “. . . Biblical foundations?”

Seems to me that the “Constitution Party” might be more accurately named something along the line of “The Christian Revised Constitution Party.”

Not the Constitution but: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights…”

The faith of the men that founded our Federation is a matter of history.

The Constitution does not need to dictate the definition of marriage, it’s meaning is common knowledge for thousands of years.

David,
the Constitution holds that ‘all men are created equal’. It apparently did not apply to the American Native Indian, the Africans kidnapped and sold into slavery, Muslims held in internment camps without trial, Muslims and other Americans who had their human rights violated by George W./Attorney General decree, post 911. The founding fathers had a good idea over 230 years ago, but as with all good ideas, someone will find a way to abuse them.

Boy, did this thread take a weird twist. I was just pointing out a funny statement made by a Republican leader in the House and it seems to have lead off down the rabbit hole.

Usurper Barack Hussein Obama has signed an executive order presidential determination allowing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to resettle in the United States. Sure, what can go wrong when we allow hundreds of thousands of people who have been, as Mark Steyn memorably described, “marinated” in a “sick death cult,” who voted for Hamas, and 55% of whom support suicide bombings live here and at the American taxpayers’ expense:

By executive order, Usurper Barack Hussein Obama has ordered the expenditure of $20.3 million in migration assistance to the Palestinian refugees and conflict victims in Gaza.

The “presidential determination” which allows hundreds of thousands of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in the United States was signed on January 27 and appeared in the Federal Register on February 4.

Usurper Obama’s decision, according to the Register, was necessitated by “the urgent refugee and migration needs” of the “victims.”

Few on Capitol Hill took note that the order provides a free ticket replete with housing and food allowances to individuals who have displayed their overwhelming support of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the parliamentary election of January 2006.

Let’s review some of Barack Obama’s most recent actions since he was inaugurated a little more than two weeks ago:

  • His first call to any head of state as president was to Mahmoud Abbas, leader of Fatah party in the Palestinian territory.

  • His first one on one interview with any news organization was with Al Arabia television.

  • He ordered Guantanamo Bay closed and all military trials of detainees halted.

  • He ordered all overseas CIA interrogation centers closed.

  • He withdrew all charges against the masterminds behind the USS Cole and 9/11.

  • Today we learn that he is allowing hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refuges to move to and live in the US at American taxpayer expense.

Anyone else seeing a pattern here? Who sounds like the friend of the Taliban?

David,
you espouse to be an educated person, so I assume that you are aware of the two factions in Gaza, Hamas the militant political party and the deposed Fatah party who were moderates. About twelve months ago, Hamas decided to kill off (literally) any Fatah supporters in Gaza. It is the moderate Fatah party who are in control of Palestine.

     Another point is that unlike the supposed Al Qaeda/Iraqi link and the Bush inspired WOMD link with Iraq,  there is no Taliban/Palestine link.  They are both Muslims,  but there the similarity ends.  The Taliban are a fundamentalist group (based in Afghanistan and supported by Pakistan who supposedly supports America in the War on Terror)  that would take the world back to the stone age.  The Palestinians are actually one of the few races of people in the Middle East who want peace.  Same cannot be said for the Israeli government.  The elections just held in Israel will mark the beginning of new rounds of incursions into Gaza with obvious one-sided fatalities.  Will the real terrorists please stand up and show yourselves to the world?  

     Maybe,  unlike your beloved war mongering ex-president George W.,  Barack Obama prefers a peaceful settlement in the east , as do the other major European heads of government.  Does this make them all Muslim loving communists?   Read up on the history of the middle east since the end of WW1,  the intervening twenty five years of racial violence until the end of British occupation in the east and the genocide committed when the European jews returned to their homeland post-WW2.   For a supposed christian,  you certainly hold racist biassed opinions on the middle east.  Maybe you have ties to Israel and the Republican party?  At least Barack Obama got a high school education before running for the posting as president (or are you frightened of someone with an education?).

     You call Barack Obama a 'usurper' and yet he was democratically elected by the majority of your own people to lead your country.

Happens all the time.
To try and steer it back is futile. Eventualy somebody strikes a nerve and you are knee deep in the sh*t with them before you know it.

You are finally correct, the only problem is the united States of America is not a Democracy, but a Constitutional Republic. In the Constitution it limits the age and heritage of who may be sworn in as President.

George W. Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, all the way back to FDR, ALL committed the military to un-Constitutional wars. BJ Clinton tops the list with over 4 military actions during his presidency some of which we are still committed.

If you wish to read about the war with Islam, you need to go back to the 1784 the Ottoman corsairs and Thomas Jefferson. They have been ruthlessly attacking infidels since Mohammad.
