The Showdown for the Survival of America

• Speaker Betroehner's diabolical scheme to ram through Gangrahamnesty follows the paradigm of the raising of the debt ceiling a couple years back:
• Pass something positively palatable (as in close the borders first) in the House,
• Send it to joint committee, to blend it with a Senate bill so disastrously pro-amnesty, pro-citizenship, and anti security even Marco Rubio (for political purposes, doubtless) is expressing grave reservations,
• Produce a virtual clone of the Senate bill and present it for confirmation,
• Put withering pressure on GOP House members, who - like Col West on the debt ceiling - fall in line and rubberstamp, and
• Combine it with ObamaCare, our rigged election system, the Obrownshirts, the war against Christianity, etc, to deal the death blow that finishes America off.
• America's own gang of three (Steve King, Louie Gohmert, and lame duck Michele Bachmann) has sniffed this out and recruited a base of about 70 "renegade" GOP congressmen, who plan to openly defy Betroehner, Rove, and the whole the neoRockefeller Republican establishment (losing all future national party funding, decent committee assignments, etc) for putting their nation above the Republicrat Party, thereby sacrificing their political lives.  To wit:
• Invoke the "Hastert Rule," which forbids an acquienscent GOP House from conspiring with the Social(ist) Democrats and passing a bill with less than half the votes of House Republicans,
• Muster, however small, a majority in the Republican House that refuses to pass any immigration bill (not even that red herring "palatable" one) whatever, thus keeping the matter out of the grubby hands of that joint House-Senate committee, and
• Saving the Republic, for the time being, at least.
• The Senate bill will:
• Provide welfare benefits even beyond the extravagant ones that already have crimmigrants living better than most hard working Americans,
• Net, according to Heritage, well over half a million dollars apiece (in 2013 dollars) to the average crimmigrant over his "career,"
• Break the proverbial American bank, and
• Establish in perpetuity a collectivist electoral majority for the Democrats in America.
• If the good gang of three somehow pulls this off, those who help them will have no future in the Republican Party.  This would open the door for their mass migration to what could be a viable third party (America's Party, or, less likely, the Constitution Party, or some variation of a new "Tea" Party?) that, with plenty of help from God, could wrest America from the Republicrats' clutches.  I can dream, can't I?

Paulista for Life

Ron Paul's refusal, in the most recent debate (in Iowa) to credit Justices Thomas, Scalia, et al with any moral or Constitutional superiority to Kagen, Sotomaior, Ginsberg, and Breyer (his "they're all good and they're all bad" reply makes Kerry's "I voted for the bill before I voted against it" seem forthright by comparison).  This may be the most significant tidbit yet on Paul.

Quite a few others have described a phenomenon I've encountered in my dealings with Paulistas (and in my observations of the curmudgeon himself):

If you don't march in lockstep with their views (to include military gay pride parades, "In God We Trust" off the money, "America got what she deserved on 9/11," legalized heroin and prostitution, ad nauseum), you're a brainwashed neocon propagandist.  Hence his recent smears of Bachmann and Santorum on Leno.

But you must notice that such a monolithic demand doesn't hold when it comes to leftists.  The SCOTUS response, for instance, actually elevates the Stalinist wing at the same time it demeans the originalists.  On Leno, while he lambasted the only two conservatives in the race, he had nothing malignant to spew on Romney, Gingrich, or Perry, and he actually praised lefty Huntsman, an Obama appointee with far more in common with "that one" than with the two Paul skewered.

And Paul had no problem endorsing the presidential candidacies of far, far leftists Ralph Nader and Sheila Jackson-Lee in '08.   Or lavishing accolades on collectivists like Dennis Kucinich and Chuck Hagel and co-sponsoring, with Barney Frank, a bill legalizing Intenet porn.  Meanwhile, an ex-COS for one of the few congressmen I've trusted on the Hill has long informed that if you've got a proposal that just might somehow bear fruit and would like Paul's support, you'd best not bother to apply if you're on the right.

Paul leads Iowa, a few days before the caucuses there, as of this writing, and he and Mitt Romney officially have Virginia to themselves, due to a bizarre new rule there.  His chances of winning the nomination (at which point the Obamites will beat him into the ground with his past marginally racist statements - along with his seemingly choreographed walk-off on CNN to avoid discussing them) are frighteningly real.

Many years ago, I heard a street evangelist affirm that homosexuals constitute the one class of sinner a member of which he's never seen repent; he didn't think one ever could.  The intervening years have disproven that conjecture, and my Save America Summit actually had a redeemed ex-gay serving ably.

The black hole, on the other hand, of Paulism appears to permit neither light nor adherents to escape.  Once initiated, one can no longer maintain ties to one's former Judeo-Christian-based principle set.  One embraces, in its place, a jealous god in the form of an America-demeaning, hybrid agenda, from the leftist component of which no deviation is allowed, while, for Marxists from Kagen to Kucinich, the rightist elements are fair game.

Ron Paul, a hard leftist out trolling for conservative souls.

Heaven help us.
