Wow. Just wow. Share this far and wide. Newt talks about taking back congress, national security and impeaching Eric Holder. Wow!

Hat tip to AP.

I ask this question based on a legitimate concern.

Republican leaders continue to back the ACORN/Daily KOS endorsed Dede Scozzafava while fretting over Conservative candidate Doug Hoffman in the New York 23 congressional race.

Establishment Republicans, including Newt Gingrich, are puzzled by the excitement over Doug Hoffman and the endorsement of his campaign by figures like Sarah Palin and Tim Pawlenty.

Politico reports:

“A senior GOP strategist, granted anonymity in order to speak candidly, lamented that in endorsing Hoffman, the contenders had delivered to the White House an early victory in their efforts to brand the Republican Party as dominated by its conservative wing.”

Conservative wing? Conservative wing???

Hello???

Gallup reported today that Conservatives are the dominant ideological group in America.

Since when is the majority a “wing?”

“Changes among political independents appear to be the main reason the percentage of conservatives has increased nationally over the past year: the 35% of independents describing their views as conservative in 2009 is up from 29% in 2008.”

Did the GOP miss the last six months? Did the party leaders not see the Tea Parties, the town hall meetings or the national outrage over ACORN? Have you been sitting in a dark room with your ears plugged?

Here’s a newsflash for the GOP from a libertarian who wants to vote Republican.

1. You don’t need to re-brand the party.

2. If you run a candidate with ANY connection to ACORN, SEIU, or any corrupt affiliate thereof, he or she will LOSE.

3. Run genuine Conservative candidates and you’ll win.

In the mean time I have just one final suggestion.

Buy a computer and check out “the internet.”

I hope we can expect to see more of this as young people, who overwhelmingly supported Obama, begin to realize that Democrats want ever expanding control over their choices, money and lives.

The Baker County Press reports:

“The two newest political groups in Baker County may also be the youngest, dispelling the notion that people under 40 are disinterested in government.”

“The Baker County Young Republicans, a group opened to those between 18 and 40 years old, and the Libertarian Party of Baker County, which has two officers under 30, held their first meetings this month at local eateries.”

“Twenty people attended the Young Republicans gathering at Calendar’s October 13 and heard from two county commissioners. Ten others interested in the local Libertarian Party met five days before at the Waffle House where Jeff Hunt of Jacksonville, a member of the state party’s executive committee, was the featured speaker.”

“Clint Shivers, 29, of Macclenny serves as treasurer for the Libertarian Party of Baker County.”

“As a registered Libertarian, Mr. Shivers was recently contacted by the party’s regional leader Phil Laibe, who hoped to get a local arm of the party started here.”

“He and another local man, Richard Nader, soon met with Mr. Laibe and started the county-level affiliate of the Libertarian Party of Florida. Mr. Nader serves as the local party chair and Cindy Waltman, 28, handles public relations.”

“We decided to go ahead and sign the paperwork that day and make it official,” said Mr. Shivers, a former Republican who also joined the Young Republicans meeting last week.”

“Both groups welcome anyone to their meetings, not just the party faithful, as long as debate remains civil.”

“Mr. Shivers registered Republican after turning 18 and stayed true to the party as long as he could.”

“What I tell people is that I didn’t leave my party, they left me,” he explained.”

“The Internet and computer specialist employed by Baker County became disenchanted with both Democrats and Republicans and saw the third party as a vehicle for something different.”

“The both keep making the same mistakes. We need a change,” said Mr. Shivers. “The Libertarian Party makes the most sense to me. They stand for limited government, fiscal responsibly, basically they want to get back to the roots of the founding — where power lies at the local level and not the federal level.”

“Though they aren’t necessarily stepping outside their party’s tent, the Young Republicans, or YRs, are about creating a new forum for ideas locally.”

“That forum is one that member Jesse Davis of Macclenny calls “generationally relevant.”

“Generally speaking,” he said, “people in this age group [18 to 40] have different points of view, different ways of relating to each other, different ways of communicating and a different view on what the future should look like and how politics should be handled.” Full Article

Doug Hoffman, the Conservative Party candidate in NY-23 and Governor Sarah Palin clearly understand this Libertarian Republican zeitgeist.

Newt Gingrich and the RNC might want to take note.

Did you know there are alternative healthcare reform plans out there that don’t give governement authroity over your choices? President Obama sure likes to say there are no alternatives and the media helps him by never covering them.

Former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich has offered a much simpler alternative to ObamaCare which won’t raise taxes or kill jobs. You can read all about it at Health Transformation dot net.

Here’s Newt addressing the Heritage Foundation on his plan.

Dennis Miller is one of our favorite Conservative Libertarians and we love seeing him on the O’Reilly Factor. In the following video, he suggests that a Gingrich/Palin ticket would be a winner in 2012.

Yes, yes, we know that 2012 is quite a way off but damn, from where we stand today that would be a rather attractive team. Just imagine Sarah Palin running on a ticket where BOTH candidates were true conservatives…

Thank God someone finally said it. Here we are, sitting on TONS of natural resources and our own government PREVENTS us from tapping those resources while saying we need to find alternative forms of energy and end our dependence on foreign oil.

Newt spells it out in an article called Our Tanks Are On Full:

“Let’s be clear: our energy crisis is not due to a lack of American energy resources. We have more coal than any other country in the world. There are 86 billion barrels of oil and 420 trillion cubic feet of natural gas lying undeveloped offshore. Shale-oil reservoirs in parts of Colorado and Utah could hold upwards of 1 trillion barrels of oil—more than three times the proven reserves in Saudi Arabia. Nuclear power is a clean source of energy that produces zero carbon emissions. It generates 20 percent of America’s electric power today, and with the right investment could generate far more.”

“Instead, America is suffering from an artificial energy crisis, one that is the product of our government’s policies, not despite them. For example, until September 2008, Congress had made it illegal to drill for oil and natural gas in most areas off our coasts. Congress still forbids the development of the vast shale-oil reserves in the Rocky Mountains even though there are promising technologies that could make extracting oil from shale economically competitive. In addition, laws passed in the 1970s banning the recycling of spent nuclear fuel forced nuclear-power plants to invest in techniques to dispose of the fuel; the long-running feud over where to store the spent fuel has helped prevent the construction of more plants.”

Preach Newt, preach!

While King O and the oh-so-politically-correct Dems are trying to create green jobs (translation – energy jobs they deem worthy of doing) Americans are denied the lucrative energy resources, jobs and money that lay right under our feet.

When do we stop paying foreign countries for resources we already have?

Drill baby drill!

Newt Gingrich caused quite a stir today by suggesting that if Republicans don’t return to their small government roots, there could be some…unpleasantness.

“If the Republicans can’t break out of being the right wing party of big government, then I think you would see a third party movement in 2012,” Gingrich said Tuesday.”

“Remember, everything Obama’s doing, Bush started last year,” he said. “If you’re going to talk about big spending, the mistakes of the Bush administration last year are fully as bad as the mistakes of Obama’s first two, three months.”

If this had been contained to CNN it might have been a non-story but conservative bloggers and commentators rang in their sentiments affirmatively. Monique Stuart reports that she’s in with a post titled Mr. Gingrich, I agree.

Even Allahpundit at Hot Air is wondering if his boss, Michelle Malkin, is ready for revolt.

We found an interesting letter to the editor at Florida’s TC Palm that clearly reflects these views:

“Congress just doesn’t get it. When our forefathers drafted our Constitution, they never intended for there to be career politicians. You serve your country and move on. With all the disgust with our representatives and their involvement in the financial mess, maybe it’s time to push term limits.”

Read the entire letter HERE.

One thing is for sure. Many, many American citizens are majorly pissed. They have every right. Our government is supposed to serve us.

Lately, the only people they’re serving is themselves.
