America is far from lost, but what about the GOP?

By Alan Keyes

Romney/Ryan lost. The GOP held on to the U.S. House of Representatives. But the Democrats held on to their majority in the U.S. Senate. They did so thanks, in no small part, to the politically murderous treachery of the GOP wing of the elitist faction, orchestrated by Karl Rove and quietly approved by GOP nominee Mitt Romney.

Though Romney is without doubt a faux conservative, I'm sure the elitist faction media claque will try to pretend that his defeat was somehow a repudiation of the conservative views he steadfastly refused to represent during both his government career and his campaign. As for conservatives, including those struck mad with terror at the prospect of Obama's re-election, they find themselves exactly where I predicted we would all end up in any case. The only hope for thwarting the elitist faction's anti-American, anti-Constitution, leftist regressive agenda lies in the Congress of the United States, and in particular in the hands of the GOP majority in the House of Representatives. That majority has a conservative mandate to represent the many millions who accepted the GOP line that the 2012 election was an historic choice that would decide the fate of America's way of life.

Given their sorry track record after the GOP retook the majority in the U.S. House in 2010, is there much hope that the GOP majority in the House will decide, finally, to represent the grassroots constituents they roused with this talk of mortal danger to America's prospects and liberty? Will they make it their business to challenge and thwart at every turn Obama's efforts to consolidate the elitist tyranny for which he laid the groundwork in the first term of his White House occupation?

The GOP's elitist faction leaders conned and misled people into pinning their hopes on a GOP Presidential candidate who has proven himself to be, in his own way, as deeply committed as Obama to the elitist faction's liberty-destroying socialist agenda. Thus misled, many people devoted to restoring and preserving the Constitutional Republic may greet Obama's victory with despair. But this emotional and spiritual reaction exactly suits the purposes of the elitist faction manipulators who orchestrated this year's Presidential election scam.

This is the guy President Obama defeated in 2004(?) for Senator in Illinois. He is a propagandist and a liar.

Yeah, the GOP is toast. Maybe not this cycle, but the next one is going to put them even further out on the fringe. If they don't have a good nominee by 2016 it will be a generation before they can rebuild. Good riddance.

I was FR reader since '96,
and they've really gone downhill
but this headline today... holy shit...

"If You Think Islamist Jihadists Are Bad for America, Look Inside the Latino Movement"

Throw in Limbaugh playing Feliz Navidad
and Tea Party is a recipe for imminent destruction.

You can almost hear the doomsday countdown...

"T-minus and 745 days to self-destruct"

Inviting the Latino movement into your political party is like inviting the Jihadists in...its like picking up a live grenade!!

If you look inside the Latino movement, you will find a fire-brand of anti-American and anti-white venom. It is their intent to take over this country for themselves. Check out the National Council of La Raza and key among the secondary organizations is the radical racist group Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan, or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan (MEChA), one of the most anti-American groups in the country, which has permeated U.S. campuses since the 1960s, and continues its push to carve a racist nation out of the American West.
