Conservablogger - Thoughts on the Fox News / Google Republican Debate Thursday

Thursday’s evening republican debate was interesting.
front runners, Perry and Romney (I feel) came off as boring and calculated. I did not feel their commitment to following the constitution.

I was dissappointed when the Youtube chat window quit working during the debate.  I was ready to cheer and jeer, but sadly, was unable.  So, here are my thoughts:


Ron Paul’s remarks stuck out the most for me, because he spoke of the constitution as something he thinks our nation has been violating. I believe he is right, and I think if he were President, he would fix a lot of what is wrong.

Michele Bachman was also strong. She spoke of constitutional conservatism, and I could sense her passion and dedication to those principals.


I think a great ticket would be Paul and Bachman., or Newt Gingrich and Bachman.


I don’t like Gingrich because he has been connected with the politics of our nation for some time and has, in some way, helped get us here.

Newt spoke of a new contract with America that he plans on introducing next Thursday. I think Newt was probably the most intelligent person in the room.

John Huntsman had a great moment when he spoke of his neighbors two dogs creating more shovel ready jobs than Obama has.


All the candidates had a chance to voice how they would change things.

Herman Cain spoke of a 9-9-9 plan. 9 percent income tax, 9 percent sales tax and 9 percent corporate tax. This seems a lot better than what we have now.


Herman also spoke of the lack of leadership in the White House and standing up for Israel.  Here are his remarks where he says, "if you mess with Israel, you mess with the USA.."


Rick Santorum said Obama is the new King George III.  That he (Obama) thinks he can tell people what to do from on high. Here's the video of what he said:


Each candidate had moments. I didn’t care for Perry or Romney. These guys are too spit and polished… to much of the type of Republicans that leads us in the same direction as liberals… accept maybe a little slower.


We need an extreme candidate for these extreme times.


So far, I have to say, I like Ron Paul.

Hate to See Beck Leave Fox

I have to express my disappointment that Glenn Beck will be leaving Fox News in less than 2 weeks.

Remember the movie, “The Matrix” when Neo woke from the pod and discovered that he had been sleeping; that his life was a dream? 

Beck woke me up from a dream of sorts.   Much like Neo in the movie,  I was blissfully unaware, and unconcerned with the leftist progressive, dare I say, diabolical plan that is threatening our nations sovereignty and our liberty.

The fact that Beck is leaving Fox despite presenting the most  riveting , informative, and important information on television today leads me to believe he really is going because of pressure put on Fox by advertisers.

This may or may not be so, but I for one am giving him the benefit of the doubt:  He is leaving Fox to embark on a new project that will give him the flexibility to produce the kinds of material he REALLY wants to share.

What will that be? 

This afternoon, he said on his show that he will focus on remedies and answers.  Beck pointed out that he has been bringing us the problems every day; that fox and every other network has that covered, so he wants to focus on answers.

I think that’s an awesome business model, but I still don't want to see him go.

Because of Beck I know about concepts like "Social Justice" and "collective salvation' and the Fabian Window with the radicals, socialists and communists who are stoking the flames heating up the world so they can reshape it closer to their hearts desire.  

Tell me, who else  is out there waking people up to  the underhanded  crap that is taking place in our nation?
