Let's Be Consistent!!

I read Steve Deace's blog today, and was inspired to write this. Many people wonder why 40% of Evangelicals voted for Obama. I tell them it is because he was the honest one.

Think about it. He is doing everything he told us he was going to do.Then this week he again told everyone, despite his agenda is destroying his party's election season, that he was going to carry that agenda out in the next two years. Maybe he is stubborn. Humans tend some times to confuse commitment to stubbornness. He is showing me, that he is confident, that he was honest with the American people about who he was, and America was comfortable with that, because he won. I can't argue with his thought process on this. I also commend him for not changing his agenda, when it is obvious it is very unpopular.

Now before you call me a traitor. I have talked to many Viet Nam veterans, who had more admiration, for the integrity, and valor of the Viet Cong, than our South Vietnamese allies. That didn't mean they liked the enemy. They merely respected the enemies valor, and commitment.

As per Steve Deace's blog today. Staci Appel can count herself with Obama, in being honest about who she is. She is telling the absolute truth about herself. She also happens to be lying about Kent Sorenson, so I can't say she is honorable.

Consistency has been a strength of the Democratic Party. They present their ideas to the public on a consistent basis, and never back down from them. They have core values that are easy to understand, and they cling to them. That type of commitment endears THEIR voters to them. That is how Pete Stark, Maxine Waters, Chuck Rangel, ETC get reelected every time. Their constituents admire their consistency, because they are consistent. What else can you expect from a party whose mascot is a jack ass?

Here is an example of how Republicans are inconsistent. A friend of mine is supporting Tom Tancredo for Colorado Governor. I support Tom for Governor.

The other day, this friend posted a comment about Dan Maes the Republican nominee for Governor, essentially calling him an unpatriotic egomaniac. I was stunned. This person knew better than that. We are conservatives we don't make such statements that a Mike Castle, Lisa Murkowski, or Charlie Crist supporter would make.

There does seem to be some questions about Dan Maes.

This friend did not take being called out for inconsistency very well. I will not share the response. Haven't heard anything since. But it is a look at the fundamental problems going on in Republican circles. My friend who defended, Joe Miller, Marco Rubio, and Christine Odonnell, for the personal attacks that were made on them, committed a personal attack on Dan Maes. Very inconsistent behavior.

For Conservatism to make a come back. We Conservatives must be very, very consistent. If the Republican Party is to hold on to the large victory they will be seeing very soon. They will have to take on the responsibility, of being consistent.

The newly elected Republicans, will need to be the Republicans, the party platform tells the American people, Republicans are supposed to be. The new majority will need to show the same commitment to their agenda, that Obama and Staci Appel, and other Liberals have shown to their agenda. So far, I haven't seen a great sign of consistency on a party, or personal level among Republicans, or Conservatives. If they don't become consistent. Conservatism is over.
