Make the Case

There are few pragmatic conservative voices in the public forum. Conservatism and the Republican Party have become synonymous and are used interchangeably.  They are not the same.  We MUST get back to discussing ideas, issues and concepts and our practical conservative solutions, regardless of party lines and affiliation.

It is our role as pragmatic conservatives to make the case for common sense conservatism. Real world solutions to tough issues and problems from health care to energy.  Our ideas have worked in the past and they will work in the future, but we need a BETTER argument.  We cannot allow others to define the conservative movement and pigeon hole us and our ideas.  We must make a better common sense argument, issue by issue, for the imperative need of conservative ideals applied in the public forum.

I would like this to be a forum of discussion for practical solutions to the issues of the day.  One issue at a time.

Let us begin the dialogue.

  1. We need to be able to post on here too. I can only comment.

    Am I the only one that feels a little bit overwhelmed by what has happened here? We are going to use TRILLIONS of American taxpayer money to throw at failing private institutions. We are giving power to the Treasury Secretary that normally is only reserved for a dictator. We have a Congress that acts like a bunch of children with no hope in sight. We are on the brink of a MASSIVE inflation that could devalue the dollar so badly that we could be using it as wallpaper soon.

    Is it just me, or is anyone else losing hope that we can reverse this trend??
