Yesterday we shared the story of the CoC announcing their intention to spend $50 million in order to protect and maintain establishment Republicans.     Yesterday the SCF (Senate Conservatives Fund) also sent out a distribution letter notifying supporters of the same issue.
However, the SCF misses the point when they note:

“The Chamber is pro-bailout, pro-stimulus, and pro-debt so it’s no surprise they want to elect more liberal Republicans.”

All of which is true but that’s not the primary impetus behind the current $50+ million for the 2014 election cycle.
The reason the Chamber of Commerce is willing to spend so much money to protect the Mitch McConnells of the world was openly discussed a few weeks ago when the Chamber President appeared on Neil Cavuto.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is heavily invested in two legislative constructs.   First, immigration reform.  Second, maintaining Obamacare.
John Boehner has promised to deliver immigration reform next year.  Nancy Pelosi openly admitted as such and it is widely expected to be the platform for President Obama’s entire State of The Union speech.
Bottom line – Establishment Republicans are going to deliver Amnesty legislation on behalf of the CoC request. (more…)

Setting aside the agenda bias inherent in this article (last line) it just once again solidifies what direction the Republican Establishment choose to take.   The cocktail party is going to relentlessly work to destroy anyone who would loosen the ever desperate, yet dying, grip on their ideological power. 

Before we can destroy the anti-freedom liberalist contingents we must first rid ourselves of the toxic infection that remains the Republican Party Decepticons.  It begins with getting rid of Mitch McConnell – Support the Tea Party.

(Via Ballot Box) The Chamber of Commerce is planning to spend at least $50 million on a campaign to boost establishment Republicans in primaries against Tea Party challengers, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The group’s broader aim is to help the GOP win Senate control and block Tea Party Republican candidates who might lose otherwise winnable seats to Democrats.

“Our No. 1 focus is to make sure, when it comes to the Senate, that we have no loser candidates,” Chamber political strategist Scott Reed tells the Journal. “That will be our mantra: No fools on our ticket.” (more…)

The progressive mantra of modern liberalism is flailing miserably everywhere you look and the media protestations of a “Do Nothing Congress” are flares shooting up from their encampments identifying exactly where they reside.

All around us are signs the various liberalist causes are visibly in the minority.   The odd thing is how willing the progressives are to out their failing positions.    Against the liberal yard-stick of emotional legislative advancement, which is diametrically antithetical to freedom, the media are proclaiming congress as failed.
However, when you consider that stopping intrusion by government into your life is a central tenant of freedom this congress is the most successful in a decade.
Coast to coast people are showing their pushback against the nanny state.    People are rising up, or using their TV remotes, or tuning their car radios, or expressing their voice, to reflect an ideology of freedom in opposition to the current federal administration and the beliefs they visibly represent.

…. A Christmas wish that cannot be purchased and won’t be identified until May of 2014.
So much of what we are dealing in our daily lives is a direct result of the polar opposite of what is reflected in the birth story of Jesus Christ.
In many ways the birth of Jesus challenged the contract between those who ruled and those who are forced by consequence to live under those rulers.   A leader born to serve people instead of demanding service from people.
Politically speaking, until the birth of Jesus Christ all leaders exhibited their will upon the people beneath them.    The Macedonians, the Babylonians, The Persians, the Romans and the Egyptians et al , all led from a power base of top down construct enforcing the will of Kings and Emperors.   Rules made by Rulers.
The birth of a Leader who would change the never negotiated contract to a concept of  service for His people was so extraordinary it became dangerous to even discuss such considerations.
So too do we find ourselves, albeit millennia removed, engaged in this exact same struggle today.   Nations of people ruled by power systems manipulated and constructed by the few against the will of many.  (more…)

The chatter amongst the Inside-the-Beltway C&CCS* set is the recent flare up in the barely simmering ideological flame war between the Establishment “Main Street Republican” Decepticons and grassroots Tea Party activists leading into the 2014 election cycle for the very soul and future direction of “Conservatism” in America.
In addition to not-so-subtle chats with martial industry lobbyists, at a fundraiser held in early November McConnell personally demanded Defense contractors pony up to stop the Tea Party assault or face a defense contract spending drought in the next Congress.

Sources close to the discussions state McConnell is looking for deep pockets to fund his “one issue” campaign to “teach” those who seek to primary “approved” Establishment Republicans a “lesson” as some type of ill conceived anodynic salve that will simultaneously heal the internecine rupture and rally the troops while affirmatively castigating the wayward “wild eyed” Tea Party patriots and extinguishing any lingering questions about his impoverished ability to lead fence sitting middle America into rallying behind a resurgent majority Republican Congress. Overall support from the defense industries has tapered significantly since the 2008 cycle, and McConnell is demanding they open the spigot – wide.

So Speaker John Boehner doesn’t LIKE US ?

In 2009 we had a decision to make.   Either assemble our rapidly growing force under a new structure, a new political party; or align and take over an existing structure, and existing political party.     A prudent decision was made in 2010 to just take over an existing structure – Conservatives became insurgents within the Republican Party.
Initially the GOP saw benefit to our association.   Through us they could gain back the House of Representatives, and we did.   We handed them the gavel as a stop-gap measure to slow the growth of the infection, big government, that was killing our freedom.
But the GOP doesn’t like us.   We are not *their* type of people.  We are surly, deliberate, loud and, according to them, unrefined extremists, jihobbits and terrorists and such.   They consider us a rowdy bunch more comfy with a beer straight from the bottle and incapable of appreciating the aroma of their preferred vintages.
In short, they don’t like us.  We represent a risk to their influence, careers and livelihoods built upon retention of power.
Screw em’. (more…)

Breitbart has a great interview and outline available where they interview Mitch McConnell’s primary challenger, Matt Bevin. Here are some excerpts:
[…] There is a tug of war going on between ‘We the People’ who still believe at the ballot box that this is a government by and for us. And it’s a battle between us and those who think it’s by and for a handful and that that handful gets to self-select and self-profligate and self-choose who’s next in line.”
[…] We are as a nation, and I don’t care what side of the aisle people are on, seventy-plus percent of Americans strongly believe that we’re on the wrong path financially and I couldn’t agree more,” he stated. “The path we’re on financially is unsustainable. And I look at my children and I think I can leave money to them, I can try to leave businesses to them, but to have in what type of America? What type of a world?” (more…)

Senator Mitch McConnell is desperate to retain his seat.   He is doing everything within his considerable power to destroy the Jim DeMint established Senate Conservative Fund who are supporting four solid CONSERVATIVE Candidates.
McConnell’s latest pressure from the establishment class is directed toward staff working inside the SCF.    McConnell is growing more rabid and more intense as the months lead up to the May 2014 Kentucky primary.     He is threatening to destroy anyone who stands against him and the establishment GOP.
In as much as President Obama has ruled by dictatorial fiat against the wishes of the average center-right American, likewise does Mitch McConnell hold a similar view of power.     If McConnell hates the SCF every patriot should support it.   Here’s the latest message from the Senate Conservative Fund about the four current 2014 conservative candidates.
(VIA SCF)  Thanks to your support, our four endorsed candidates for U.S. Senate are making remarkable progress. Here’s a quick update on these critical races. (more…)

Sometimes the only thing a person can do is to inform others the scope, size and propensity of the opponents armory – the listener can then judge for themselves what the enemy is going to do with it.

Paul Revere did as much when he spotted The Somerset, a British Man-O-War, resting in the bay of Charlestown – His mounted ride thereafter was written into the history of our Republic.
Today the enemy is more common; yet beholden of a similar stealth and specific intent.   Today the enemy is, as it was well predicted to be, the Washington DC political class.  More specifically the GOP establishment; and more specific still – the head of that class, Mitch McConnell. (more…)
