Looking for an answer…

Finally who someone who says as it is: Andrew Breitbart at CPAC

There appears to some to be fallout from all the infighting in the GOP primaries, but all the big poll takers including Scott Rasmussen say that the effects of the negativity will fade as soon as the primaries are over and the GOP has a candidate.

However many pundits and every day people are not so sure.

Here is some news that should make us stop the quibbling immediately:

God help us… a 3rd installment of globalist Bush(es) with ties to the Clintons, George Soros’ former best buddies before Obama… So the choice would be Jeb controlled by Team Soros and globalist Dad George H.W. Bush or Soros Puppet Obama. Wow!

Jeb Bush could emerge as GOP nominee at a brokered convention, says top Republican

Incidentally--Mr. Cardenas has been named by "The Hill" as one of the top lobbyists in DC; so what does that tell you?

Time to pull it together (Republicans, conservatives, independents, libertarians, moderate Democrats, and constitutionalists)  if you care about your freedoms, your children and grandchildren’s futures and the survival of the Republic and the U.S. Constitution.

The Death of "Common Sense"

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who Has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; Why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. 

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.

It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an Aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife, Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason.

He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers;
I Know My Rights
I Want It Now
Someone Else Is To Blame
I'm A Victim

Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. ( And some never knew he existed! )
