Recently on Politico.com, John Feehery, former Director of
Communication for House Speaker Denny Hastert and part of the
"walking-dead" staff of the Republican Leadership in the House of
Representatives, called out Rush Limbaugh for being a
Conservative.
Yes, that's right, if you read John's
masterfully written little letter
to Rush, you'll find not a dose of principled objection in
it. And not an ounce of common sense or a modicum of
originality.
John parrot's the Left's disdain for us
simple-minded Conservatives.
So, let's set
John straight about a few things:
-- Rush is not the
head of the Republican Party. He is a leader of the
Conservative Movement. We Conservatives have had to distance
ourselves from Republicans like you, John, because you are spineless in
the face of socialism and brainless in your ability to govern with
common sense. Your party has appeased spenders, elevated
appeasers and sunk yourselves into deep centrism. You went to
Washington and allowed the parasite of bureaucracy to eat your party
from within. And that has left you neutered and
ineffective...so your brilliant strategy is to attack
Conservatives. (Now I remember why your kind isn't in power
any longer!)
-- Rush in no way needs to "restore" the
Republican Party to greatness. That is the job of Republican
elected officials. That was your job in the late '90's and
early this century, when our Republican leaders (the men you worked
for) chose to spend like drunken sailors and wallow in political
degradation. It's thanks to you and your former bosses that
Republicans can't exactly oppose the stimulus spending bill with any
credibility. Let's face it, if you and your kind were still
in charge, you'd be passing a similar bill, wouldn't
you?
-- If you had the brains of a Conservative, and
not a Jackass, you'd realize that vote-buying is not what
Conservatives, and should not be what Republicans, are all
about. We do not view the American public as a smorgasbord of
ethnic, racial and gender groups, willing to be eaten by the first
political wolf who happens along. Earth to John: WE ARE NOT
LIBERALS. It is liberals who believe that you can buy
Hispanic votes with amnesty ( By the way, try asking John McCain how
well that works). It is liberals who believe that women will
only vote for a candidate who wears boxers not briefs. How
dare you ask a Conservative to segregate races or the sexes in order to
practice groupthink and class envy.
John, if you'd
like a plan for the border, here's one: fence it up so
Americans will no longer be harassed, kidnapped, beheaded and killed by
rogue Mexican gangs and drug smugglers along the Rio Grande.
John, if you'd like a plan for women, here's one: convince
your fellow bureaucrat friends to get out of our lives, out of our
children's lives, out of their education and out of our
homes.
John, if you'd like a plan for
blacks, Latinos, women, or any other group you'd like to
splice-and-dice, here's one: follow the Ronald Reagan plan of
less government, lower taxes and rugged individualism, which you should
have done when you had the power to affect change.
John, here's some news that politicians like you
need to know: Black people aren't any different than you or
I. And neither are Latinos. And to think
differently is to buy into the Liberal Racialism that pervades the
Democrat Party...the idea that we can be divided, conquered and then
oppressed by the heavy hand of
government.
John: you, and people like you,
had your chance. Your kind of limp-wristed
politician, who too often clogs up the Beltway, destroyed the
Republican Party from within, vanquished any goodwill you had with your
own voters, nominated a fellow limp-wrister to the top of the ticket,
and then proceeded to lose an election to the greenest rookie to ever
try his hand at a national election. Your pitiful track
record demands that you go sit in the corner and take a
time-out
And one more premise of John's
that I need to correct: The Conservatives don't want to move
the Republican Party or the American people to the "Right".
We ARE the American people. We make this country
work. We raise our families and provide for each ensuing
generation.
And we want to be represented
by men and women like Rush Limbaugh. Because we are sick and
tired of boys like you rolling over and begging for table scraps from
liberals, socialists and worse. And we are tired of being represented
by losers, who are constantly being out-maneuvered and out-played by
dyed-in-the-wool socialists.
Men like Rush Limbaugh
don't roll over, they aren't losers, and they don't beg for table
scraps. Certain parts of their anatomy won't allow them to do
that. It's what Reagan called living lives that are a
statement, and not an apology.
But, John, silly boys
like you wouldn't understand. You are the same kind of staff
infection who ridiculed Sarah Palin. You are the same kind of
staff infection that ruins perfectly good Governing Majorities, and
then blames Conservatives. Luckily, Rush Limbaugh and the
hundreds of millions of Conservatives in this country are just what the
doctor ordered to cure the Republican Party of it's staff
infection. It's time for some "Rush Penicillin".
It's time to put on our scrubs and prepare for some precision surgery
in the Republican Party. Starting with John
Feehery.
