What is Really Going On in The GOP?

By Robert Cappucci

 

Robert Cappucci is a staunch and loyal Reagan Conservative, an avid Constitutionalist, and a passionate patriot who wants to do all he can to make this country great again. He has been actively involved in politics for a long time. He served in the Army Reserves when he was 29 years old. 

When he is not busy  campaigning during election season, he is out demonstrating on the streets of Boston getting in the face of OWS demonstrators, collecting signatures, or attending events related to politics. His devotion is for his dog, his job, and his desire to learn more about Conservatism. 

 

 

Robert's mission in life is to be a better Conservative, and to have Conservatives elected to local, state and federal office. Robert and I both agree there is a problem with the GOP, that it has been against We-the-People and we both want to get to the bottom of why it is they act against our interests. We agree that infiltration is part of the problem, although from slightly different perspectives. The issue is worth noting, discussing, and looking into in more depth. ~ Isabel Matos

 

 

I have to seriously ask and remember, this is just a question:

Ok, here goes: Is there really such a thing as a “moderate” Republican, or is it really something much, much worse:

 

• Republican Governors expanding and supporting ObamaCare. Republican appointees to the Supreme Court giving the law the green light by calling it a “tax”. 

 

• Republicans like Scott Brown voting to raise our taxes, but not having enough time to even read the bills he signs into law.

 

•  Republicans like John Boehner not defunding ObamaCare, and suppressing Conservatives any chance he gets. 

 

• Romney as GOP nominee alienating Conservatives and not even putting up that much of a fight to win the White House. 

 

• RNC “leadership” PUSHING “moderate” after “moderate” after "moderate" and LOSING election after election, after election, yet still rallying behind other so-called “moderates” for more elections.

 

In the face of all this evidence, which I can prove by factual record, is it really “moderation” of the GOP or are these folks really just Democrats who have registered into our party to destroy it? Is it not a viable and honest question?

 

As a member of the Republican State Committee of Massachusetts, I have heard, first hand, other State Committee members rise to the floor and say things that reminded me of Tip O’Neill for Christ sakes. What is REALLY going on?

 

No one can deny that this isn’t a serious concern. How in the name of anything can Republicans willing vote to grant amnesty and create 10-20 million new Democrat voters (or more) that will surely make the GOP obsolete? Only one answer really fits. They are not “moderate” Republicans. They are either, quite frankly, stupid, or they are really liberals with GOP masks on. God help us.

 

It is NOT RACISM to follow the law! Anyone who claims otherwise I misleading the public and smearing good men an women, not to mention throwing Our Constitutional Rule of Law under the bus! I am sick to death of being called a racist, a bigot, a homophobe, a wager of war on women, only or the rich.. I do not care who is making these false claims! GOD is watching, and you are bearing false witness.

 

Some day, somewhere, somehow, you will atone!

 

Conservatives need to rise up in the GOP and take over the party. You do so by attending Republican City/Town meetings and running for Chair and/or running for State Committee, and State Chair or national State Committeeman or National State Committeewoman. It will be by taking the reigns that we redirect the path of our elephant herd. By that, I mean, when conservatives control voter banks, party funds, and whom we do or whom we don't support as our candidates from dog catcher to president then we can fare Conservative candidates.

Bristol.Joan.Willow.Melissa. Wife Swap June 23 8 PM

The news and reaction to Bristol and Willow Palin going on Wife Swap is starting to get really annoying.

I am supporting Bristol and Willow 100%. This is a great occasion to showcase Conservative lifestyles. Bristol and Willow are mature, charming and well-grounded. Wife Swap is a fun show, and their participation in it will make it more wholesome. That is already changing the culture in a positive way.

I love Joan Rivers and her daughter, Melissa. They are hilarious together. Joan is surrounded by obnoxious liberal Hollywood. I tune in to her show, Fashion Police, for the jokes, but it is comprised of four hosts including Joan, and a guest mid-show, who critique actress of all types. Many Palinistas would  have enjoyed the segment on Julianne Moore the other day. She was wearing shoes that revealed her wild toes.. toes that hung over, under and all around her shoe straps. I happen to think she is a hideous fashionista, and this was hilarious to watch!

I have never heard Joan Rivers or anyone on her show ever utter a single rude thing about Sarah. She keeps things a little loose comedically, but professional overall. Unless the First Lady is wearing a nice outfit, you won't hear negatives about her or other politicians. I think it is intentional. The critiques are on point and Joan's punch lines make it all worth watching. I watch this for fun when I can. Unless I missed something, Conservatives need laughter every now and then to lighten our load!

I am giving a big thumbs UP to this mini-venture because we do need to try new things. It takes courage and confidence to INFILTRATE the culture like Sarah says, but it also takes patience. Nothing that is worth changing for the better happens overnight. We will never win the war culturally if we don't even begin to fight. Does that phrase sound familiar? 

 

Let's give this a chance. I am turned off by the many whiny comments I have read. They do not reflect who we or the Palins are. Let's not be holier-than-thou, and applaud this effort, at least for now.
 

In 2007, in full campaign season, Sarah Palin appeared on the lamest comedy show ever, SNL, which I call So-Not-Laughing, to prove she had a sense of humor.  

There are TOO FEW comedians on the right who make me laugh. Greg Gutfeld has been one who has been pretty funny lately.  I suggest we NOT SHY away from these opportunities, but make the best out of them to prove we are not uptight or afraid of being in a room full of people who are not Conservative. It sounds intimidating, but without practice, we will be like the GOP dorks who don't know cool if it came knocking at their door.

We either continue complaining about the comedians making Conservatives the butt of the joke all the time, or have some fun (even if at our expense at first) and start the process of improving entertainment from our point of view.  Penetrating and even dominating the enemy's territory is what we are supposed to aim for. It is very Breitbartian in spirit and very Palin in reality. That's my two bits.

I'm pissed!

                      by Isabel Matos

I'm pissed!

This is not just for Sarah Palin supporters who are my friends. This is for all GOP voters and so-called Republicans who think their party is doing them favors. They are not!

The GOP has gone after this woman, Sarah Palin, because they have known all along she has the answers we have needed to defeat Obama and to reverse the course this country is on, and they can't have it. They, and millions of voters who have questioned her abilities and qualifications in the past, are in part to blame for the state our union is in.

On days like this, I just can't help but think, how lazy, how apathetic and how over-confident voters are to believe that the party we belong to (the GOP) does all it can to win, and that the politicians we elect to go to Washington, do their jobs by fighting for our freedoms every day.

This is for all those voters who could, but won't, take an earnest and hard look at the predicament we are in, and who continue to ignore that one person who would be president now had they not listened to the lies and smears that were spread in 08 about Sarah Palin.

Had voters been wiser, they would have ignored the tabloid-like coverage from the Marxist Media, and seen for themselves what she had actually done and stood for, on her own, without accepting any special favors, money, or using family ties to advance herself.

I wish voters had ignored the deliberate distractions, and had actually seen for themselves what a wonderful person and candidate she was. I'm angry - angry that I have to urge voters (GOP voters!) to see something that is so painfully obvious.. that Sarah is a natural leader, that she has been leading us without a title since 2007.. and that her style of leadership is displayed by example, not just talk.

We are used to being lied to, so when someone comes along with the truth, she is reviled. I believe the mood and attitude towards her are changing, and I say this because I choose to be an optimist. She is exemplifying everything we need in times likes these. She is walking us through the worst we feared would come.

I saw immediately the rarity that she was! To me, she was perfect. I never understood the vitriol against her. Sarah is politically astute. She is the only Republican, with the exception of Ted Cruz , who is taking on this President and the GOP establishment alike. Our side continues to shirk its duties and ignore Obama's scandals. That is scandalous! They ignore his atrocious and treasonous actions and dangerously naive policies. (I'm being generous..)

The GOP Republicans are cowards! The President does not fear them. He still fears Sarah. He fears truth tellers like her who can rally the country against him. He fears her because she, unlike him and his wife, loves and respects this country. She, unlike him, has never stood down on anything she has said, or compromised her principles in exchange for personal power or cheap political gains.

Sarah is NOT corrupt. She is not morally bankrupt. She is not a coward. Unlike so many we know, she has standards she not only claims to have, but lives by. Only Sarah Palin has the steel spine to carry on while others find their niche in Washington and forget what they were sent to do there.

Our spineless representatives fear negative media coverage. They live to please the Democrats enough to avoid it. The fear of being made the target of personally destructive politics keeps them in their place. They are deplorable! I hate every last one who lives by fear.

John Boehner chooses to please the president more than he does represent his own constituents. That is why it is so hard to replace him as Speaker. He is too valuable for Obama, who gets most of his agenda passed without the slightest bit of resistance from him.

JeB Bush, Mitt Romney, John McCain, Paul Ryan, Marco Rubio .. None can speak with the political clarity or moral authority that Sarah Palin does. None can take on the traitor in chief because they each have at a least one skeleton in their closet, or a personal shortcoming that can be used against them if they overstep their bounds or push for investigations that would lead to impeachment or removal of many in the Obama administration. What is going on is not just despicable. It is evil.

Sarah Palin not only knows the tremendous a predicament we are in is, she represents security for our country because she cannot be bribed, frightened off with the threat of the exposure of a scandal or blackmailed with any type of personal information she has that could compromise us.

How long will it take for GOP voters and Democrats or Independents with common sense and intellectual honesty to give this woman what she deserves: RESPECT and unconditional SUPPORT?

I am mad it has taken this long (and will still take long) for so many to open their eyes while the country's future hangs in the balance. Sarah Palin has proven that she is the only one fighting on our behalf, and the only one who can be trusted.. What then will it take for more to get it? She is doing her part, what are we doing to reach out to a wider base of supporters?

Who cares what her voice sounds like? Who cares whether you like her family or not, or whether you think she still needs to read more books, have more experience, or dress more conservatively. (I actually heard that comment in person and just about lost it when I did!)

Sarah has proven time after time, issue after issue, that she not only has the experience to be president, but she has the guts and the timing that come from instinct to do what is needed during times that try men's souls. Only masterful and natural politicians like her have done it in the past.

Because she is a woman, she is held to a different, and even impossible standard. This cannot be denied. America had better get used to it, because no one else has the unique qualifications, spine of steel, moral compass and bold personality that can help renew and restore our faith in America the Great again. No one.

For the nay-sayers in the establishment circles, and for the so-called Conservative Republicans (like the one I met at the New Orleans Investment Conference last October):

She never QUIT her job in Alaska. She did what was right by saving Alaskans from spending valuable time and state resources on dealing with frivolous lawsuits, all of which were dismissed! All. 25,000 emails also exposed nothing but integrity, honesty and professionalism.

To voters who repeat what they hear on television, you should ask yourselves why she is such a threat. You should wonder where the source of the criticism is coming from, and where you got your notion or impression of her. The media will never admit she is everything they claim she is not: that Sarah is savvy, that she is shrewd. And that she is damned good at what she does!

I'm ticked that people don't support someone who is willing to fight the way she does, and expose her family to the intense scrutiny and criticism they will get. I can't comprehend how anyone does not see the contrast between her and other so-called leaders of the "Tea Party"who prepare for their presidential campaigns for 2016. How shallow. Instead of giving, all they think about is what they can get.

We are blessed with an exceptional human being and an individual America can be proud of. When was the last time you felt proud of your country because of its politicians?

I am infuriated when voters complain about politicians not being honest, but when one comes along, it's not enough. Sarah speaks clearly. She does not make promises, or give false hopes of things that won't come. She does not sugar-coat the truth. She tells graduates they have to get off their butt to make a buck, and when she tell us hard times are coming, you had better believe they are. No one could be more practical or sensible.

She posts her comments directly on Facebook, too, while other politicians hire writers to work on their behalf.

I can't wait for the continuation of her endorsements for 2014. She is off to a great start already.
Sarah's support grows daily. I respect her. I will continue to share my enthusiasm for her with different friends (to expand the base). And I urge you to start spreading the news that were not going anywhere, that our resolve to fix this mess will only grow with time. We will follow Sarah's lead. Are you ready for the change that you are about to effect with your service in our nation's history? I am.

She is the one we will all need to turn to when the time comes for real change.  

 

What is Living in a Small Town in America Like?

I never really have lived in a small town, unless you call a gated community of 4,000 something like it. It must be interesting. Do you live in a small town? If so, what's it like?

I don't know if I could be happy without being able to catch a great international film that was just released, or checking out the oldies at special stores that keep them. I don't know if I could be content without picking up something interesting to eat on a whim, or shopping for something really fabulous to wear last minute. Miami is not a huge city, but the exposure to art and music is sufficient to keep my cultural taste buds happy. There are plenty of galleries, design districts and multi-cultural events to enjoy.

I know how to make coffee (cafecito) at home, but couldn't imagine life without the espresso stands where people get together to just be social or share the day's news. Coffee down here is not at all like at Starbucks where you keep to yourself for hours on end over a notepad or computer. It's not quiet at coffee stands anywhere in Miami. You take a shot (not a sip) of a small but potent cup of finely ground coffee mixed with a generous amount of sugar and conversation flows. The moment is meant to be shared - whether with a stranger or someone you already know. That ritual alone makes this big city feel like a small town.

I know where I live is not ideal, but geographically, I do love the flat, wide open and undeveloped space that surrounds my community. I am thirty minutes from Miami, where I spend a lot of time. I have the best of both worlds living near a big city where my family is, and being in a small town where I reside the rest of the time. Homestead is the closest I will ever get to that small-town feeling or "country"in America, so I am curious about what your experiences are.

Even though the population is over 60,000, there is less traffic, plenty of green acres with seemingly endless nursery farms, and nifty craft shops here and there. There is one official Main Street, even though it is a historic district that is mostly vacant and inactive. You can find a few general stores open for business in some of the more rural areas in the outskirts of town. The fresh air, fresh produce and access to exotic fruit grown locally are a plus. I also never have to dress fancy to go anywhere down here either, which is always nice. It still does not feel like a small town, though. Population growth and construction, as slow as both may be, are steady. In twelve years it has lose part of its charm and character.

Key Largo is just 24 minutes away, and Key West just three hours south of that. At its southernmost point, Key West is just 90 miles north of Cuba. In the Everglades, 25 miles west of me, is Flamingo Part. At its southernmost tip, you can see the sun rise and set from two different oceans from the same spot. If you pitch a tent in February or March, you don't risk getting swarmed by mosquitoes and the view is simply gorgeous: one horizon with both views. Incredible. I don't own a boat, but can only imagine how wonderful it must be to have the bay area, the Atlantic Ocean, or the Gulf of Mexico at your disposal any time. Many people come fom all over the globe to park their boats along the waterways along the Keys. I wonder if local residents feel like they live in a small town with so many visitors all the time.

Overall, I find the experience of living in South Florida a mixed bag of blessings. It is an improvised city in many ways, and small towns have history; but there are many ways in which this has been made to feel like a place where everyone knows you. In the case of Sourth Florida, you don't have to know everyone by name to know the history, struggle and general politics people live by. I grew up hearing about politics on a daily basis. It is a part of life. It has brought us together in many ways.

Before 2008, politics never was a real topic of conversation.  Maybe politics will unite more than ever. The more we know each other, the more effectively we will fight against the forces that seek to destroy us. No one should be in the trenches with stranger. Security-wise it IS a fact that knowing your neighbors makes everyone safer.

I think the elitists that Sarah Palin is referring to would be well-served by having more respect for small towns and America would definitely benefit from all the advantages that both lifestyles bring.

I Can't Say That I am Completely Happy That Michele Bachmann Is Going

I Can’t Say That I am Completely Happy Michele Bachmann is Going.

I never agreed with how Michele went about doing things. She never did seem to make or keep enough friends in the GOP or Tea Party. That is lesson number one in politics – being loyal to those who help you.  She chose instead to promote herself constantly.

Michele never seemed to have acute political instincts and allowed herself to be used by the GOP to thwart Sarah’s hopes of running in May of 2012. She apparently backstabbed Sarah Palin by trashing her supporters while running for President in Iowa. We will never know what happened, but if it is true, then it was definitely not a wise move. Sarah had publicly campaigned for her re-election in Minnesota, and she should have been more gracious. Sarah is so well-loved and loyally so, why would Michele think that would go well politically? I know Sarah Palin has taken the high road in many instances and this was just one more example of why that pays off.

I called Michele damaged goods when she would not criticize Romney during the debates.  She expected to get something in return from him, but was only fooling herself the entire time.
Michele Bachmann used the TEA PARTY caucus to promote herself from the start. My particular gripe with that is that she didn’t stand up to Mr. Anti-TEA PARTY himself, John BOEHNER, when we needed her to. She held out until the end to see which way the vote would swing, and VOTED FOR his speakership renewal on January 3rd of this year. Apparently he managed to bribe her into casting the last vote for him. That is not courageous. We needed a fresh start by removing him. She never defended the FOUR fiscal conservatives that were purged from the committees either, and that was just plain wrong!  She hurt our cause that way.

All of that being said, she should have stayed to fight the good fight and to show her sincerity and prove she really meant what she stood for.  Her strongest point was to push for investigation into Muslim Brotherhood infiltration in DC, which is a huge problem.  I respected her willingness to take the heat and to stand alone. So many don’t. There is simply too much pressure and p.c. to take this head on. The cowards who turned their backs on it (we know who they are) will probably never have the burden or fear of being investigated, as they help the administration and our enemies. WE NEED SOMEONE TO TAKE THIS ISSUE ON in the GOP! Some with less baggage and a lot more effectiveness will hopefully take her place.  It is too important to ignore, given the critical circumstances we all find ourselves in.

Here are her comments following the Benghazi attacks:

“It is my belief and my opinion that Barack Obama has been the most dangerous President we have ever had on American foreign policy.  President OBama needs to get his priorities straight. What he needs to do is cancel his interview with David Letterman, cancel his meeting with Beyonce, cancel his meeting with JayZ, and instead agree to meet with the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu.”

 [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxhplpRIuu8&feature=player_embedded]

Finally, I met her at the screening of ”Occupy Unmasked” in Tampa last year. She presented the movie and spoke admirably about Andrew Breitbart. It was a great experience which I will always remember.  I wish her well and urge her to continue fighting. It’s never about us as individuals, but about the cause. Having battle wounds is the only way to know a warrior has fought hard. To me she never really did BEGIN to FIGHT or show what she was made of.

The Left is viciously attacking her personally. NO matter how much I disagree with the less favorite politicians from our side, it is never okay to trash them, especially Conservative women, like they do.

Something to Feel Good About

While the GOP panders to the youth by appealing to their basest emotions, Sarah Palin elevates them by challenging and inspiring them to change the culture in positive ways.

This is my latest clip. It is mostly about Sarah Palin. Although the news comes and goes, certain things never change. The clip is headlined as news but the stories serve an important example of how we must keep in mind WHO is doing what is right. It is important to know the names and have a record of the actions taken by politicians so all who think they can get away with inconsistencies and cheating, know we are watching and not relenting on telling truths. In that way.

The way it is done takes a lot of time, even though it looks seamless. Enjoy the show and thank you for viewing.
