The Challenge to the GOP

Having conveyed a sense of optimism that trusted media-outlets will continue to provide resources that will empower the GOP [and America] to rebut BHO, it is necessary to scrutinize the Politics of the GOP [recalling the adage Watch out for what you wish, for you may get it!]. Guzzardi has averred during the past decade of intense debates that it is preferable to be voted-out [and, thus, to be thrust into the political wilderness] rather than to continue to support RINOs; as a GOP Committee-Person for two decades [!], this physician has argued otherwise, while occasionally having admittedly become captivated by his knowledge-base and cogent-argument {notably, when he aggressively opposed former PA-Speaker [and current-felon] Perzel}. It is into this dynamic [setting-up what will be discussed regarding ObamaCare, accompanied by strategizing] that key-concerns must be addressed.

While promoting his new book, Mark Levin [who grew-up in the neighborhood of this physician, Elkins Park] has lamented that entrenched-republican-losers-may-cost-gopthe-house-in-2014 and has screamed We Must Defeat French Republicans! from the mountain-top. Some have channeled his angst, such as when a GOP Town Hall Exploded With Anger ['We're Losing The Country' So Quit Being 'Nice Guys'!]; hearing this, others have claimed bozell-and levin are coming to-the-rescue. Ultimately, his prescription is a-constitutional-cure, but this cannot be effected prior to 14 [or even 16, realistically].

Most conservatives feel the gop-must-shed-establishment-defeatism, eloquently explained by a stalwart (Phyllis Schlafly), who also discounts the official GOP autopsy [why-republicans-didnt-win-in-2012]. Moments of candor may enlighten, regardless of the speakers motive [e.g., Reince Priebus claimed Romneys call for self-deportation of illegals was racist and horrific]; pundits can project optimism [e.g., GOP Moving Closer to Senate Takeover]. Ultimately, because its-not-your-fathers-republicanparty-anymore, leadership must act accordinglyurgentlyat all levels, down to the precincts.

The inside-baseball must be scrutinized, but it sometimes grows tiresome. In Kentucky, for example, it is averred that Mitch McConnell's dinosaur GOP is unable to fix DC, as exemplified by the fact that mcconnell-gets-support-from-liberal-special-interest, while his opponents credibility is challenged [matt-bevin-allegedly isnt truthful regarding past-support-for-gop]. In Tennessee, a GOP Poll found Sen. Alexander Trailed Generic 'Conservative' by 5 Points, as a Caller to Breitbart News Sunday claimed 'Everybody's Sick and Tired of Alexander and Corker Down Here in TN'. Clearly, a national trend has quietly/firmly emerged, characterized by mounting primary challenges to those who have become perceived as having strayed from RR-style, bedrock-conservatism; and in the process of vetting candidates, pundits are properly placed into the cross-hairs of justifiable scrutiny [e.g., Meet-Ana-Navarro-Latest-Establishment-Republican-Sellout].

Reacting to such events as when Senate Republicans gave-in to Harry Reids nuclear threat, some have expressed no-conference in Boehner [particularly when he failed to remove the pork from the farm bill, noting that house-dems-called-on-boehner-to-include-food-stamp-funding-in-a-future-farm-bill]. Others have fallen into the D-trap of demographic-compartmentalizationfor example, focusing on youth [McCain Realizes Government doesnt have Youth Respect] and the elderly [Seniors Sour on the GOP] while pointedly ignoring a Pew Poll showed Republicans Want the Party to be More Conservative. The penultimate lament is that The Democratic Party acts like its in power even when its out of power, while the Republican Party acts like its out of power even when its in power.

The GOP must fashion a cogent message, for the media assuredly wont help the GOP gain traction regardless of available unassailable data. For example, it will aggressively ignore a deteriorating economy andinsteadit will continue to parrot the D-claim that a recovery is transpiring [despite the New-home-sales-collapse-of 134%-in-july; the median income decline by 9.6% of Households headed by people younger than 25 during the first four years of the recovery; the drop of incomes that was Twice as Much During 'Recovery' as during the Recession; and the return, Under BHO, of black unemployment back to twice the white rate. Instead, it will rationalize-away his sins [CBS News Makes Excuses for BHO's Card-Playing (15 hands of Spades) During Bin Laden Raid] by attempting to perpetuate the Cult of Obama that is so intense that a parentposted-an-insane-video-of-a-kid-praying-to-BHO. These are the forces-at-play that have led to a close gubernatorial race in Virginia [ken-cuccinelli-on-va-governors-race].

And what should that message be? Over the past year, one political action committee [The Madison Project] has recruited conservatives who understand the gravity of our public policy problems and are willing to fight for solutions that will fundamentally restore our constitutional republic. Recognizing that there is an imminent-liberal-courting-of-libertarians, it is emphasized that the-constitution-can-uniteconservatives-libertarians-and-independents--and-even-save-the-gop. This can encompass enthusiasm expressed by GOP rock-stars [e.g., Anita Moncrief at C-PAC] and it can eschew racial-politics-when-thebigger-problem-is-violent-criminal-behavior. It can lament and attempt aggressively to counter the MEDIA BLACKOUT regarding two court decisions: a 5-4 SCOTUS decision that concluded there is NO Right to Remain Silent and the order that devout Christians-must-work-for-gays [New Mexico Court: Christian Photographer Cannot Refuse Gay-Marriage Ceremony]. Ultimately, it must rebuild upon a foundation of trust, lest the base [and independence-minded citizens] fail to find a party that would champion its desires [such as the 60%--at leastof Americans who oppose ObamaCare.

The Reaction of the Ds

The GOP cannot depend upon D-stumbles, no matter how emblematic regarding sexism [e.g.,Officials focused on Filner's expenses in bid to oust mayor, noting that Filner Harassed a 67-year-old GreatGrandmother and Michelle Malkin Called-Out Dem Women Over Silence on Filthy Filner]; feminism [Chicks: This is-real-feminism]; BHOs errors [BHO Passes-Up Visit to Harriet Tubman's Home; BHO's geographical confusion has become habitual]; corruption [BHO FAMILY FRIEND COOPERATING WITH CHICAGO CORRUPTION PROBE; warren-buffett-owned-company-plans-to-use-federal-wind-subsidies; Former New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin indicted; DHS-Official-Blocked-McAuliffe-GreenTech-Fundraisingas-Impermissible]; Plagiarism of D-supporters [NYT's Paul Krugman Accused of Plagiarism]; and overlyextreme social-stances [conservatives-slam-cory-booker-on-abortion-record].

In particular, as tempting as it is, the GOP cannot even depend upon BHOs dilatory policies regarding climate change as a dependable vote-mover. As BHO tools-up for upcoming battles with Congress, he combines hard-ball and spit-ball; it has just emerged that he may delay a decision regarding the Keystone-XL tar sands pipeline until 2014 by delaying the Conflict of Interest Report, inaction that prompted Congress to 'box' him. As Gop-Senator Ron Johnson claimed to have been targeted by an environmental-jihad, the AP Retracted its 'Unusually Warm Period' Claim and no-one-showed-up-at-the organizing-for-actions-climate-change-rally. When al gore channeled nigel-tufnel, global-warming-skeptics-fired-back because they feel al-gores-warming-fibs-matter. Finally, California Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher characterized global warming as a total fraud designed to create a global government to control all of our lives.

And, while the Rs are reformulating policy & programs [vide supra], the Ds can continue to run amok. For example, BHO doesnt feel compelled to fire a dept-of-homeland-security-employee-who-runsracist-white-hating-website; BHO can grow [c/o Cass Sunstein] his regulation nation to such a degree that a gop-lawmaker-felt-compelled-to-bash-the-feds-for-restricting-river-baptisms; BHO can run-up a national-debt-that-really-is-$70-trillion; BHO can lull the media into ignoring the fact that his SEQUESTER DISASTER PREDICTIONS had been OVERBLOWN; BHO can also advise the public to elide over revelations that likely-bankrupt-ecotality-was-nearly-bankrupt-before-it-got-stimulus-dollars; BHOs AG-Holder can propose a-prison-break for non-violent felons; BHO can hire nonprofit-labor-organizers-[usingtaxpayer-funds]-to-attack-businesses-for-low-wages; and BHO can promulgate shocking-examples-ofhow-his-version-of-political-correctness-is-rapidly-destroying-the-america-he-inherited-in-2009.

And street-organizer BHO need not concern himself with defending hate-hoax-enablerlena-dunhams-tweets, transmitted-after-oberlin-lies-were-dutifully-exposed: Fake hate crime acts and social network posts were performed by far-left BHO-supporting students at Oberlin College. They created fake identities, falsely claiming to be far-right; they then engaged in anti-gay, anti-black and anti-Muslim acts. Lena Dunham (Actress, Oberlin alumna, left-wing extremist) and HuffPo perpetuated the hoax, illustrating how far-left trolls posted bigoted crap to social network sites pretending to be right-wingers.

As tempting and tantalizing as it may appear to be, dramatizing what the GOP shouldnt do is to note what Tom Coburn did do, namely, claiming BHO is 'perilously close' to impeachment; this permitted axelrod-to voice fears-of an impeachment-movement, thereby garnering sympathy and support. Yet, nurturing of BHO may ultimately fall to the Taranto Principle, whereby the docile press [which Gutfeld claimed is so deeply in his pocket he has collected lint] permits him such unbridled freedom that the Monkey Business of Gary Hart would recuryielding an unbridled press-onslaught [such as occurred transiently when the AP-leak story emerged]. The cascade of NSA-based revelations could do the trick. Finally, it must be noted that, although it has been determined that Criminalizing-begging-in-Michiganis-unconstitutional, BHO is surfing-on-the-food-stamp-wave [as per Food Stamp Enrollment by State], thereby exposing as a complete farce BHOs-[redistributive] work-to-welfare-program.
