That’s Right Nate

As much as we don’t like to admit it, the time has come for Republicans to accept that Hispanics are the fastest growing population group in the United States.   Now, I’m certainly not in favor of illegal immigration, but we need Mexican immigrants in this country.   In my case my four Mexican employees work harder than my other employees, make $3.50 an hour less, and don’t require a lunch break.  This is the work ethic that built this country and as Republicans we need to embrace it.  I was overjoyed today to learn of New Gingrich’s new website to reach out to Hispanic voters.

When you go to The Americano.com, you immediately know that you’re in a site designed to appeal to today’s Hispanic voter.  This is an extremely valuable resource that will allow Hispanics to keep up on conservative issues like Representative Lamar Smith (R-TX) and his tough talk on immigration or Newt Gingrich’s latest appearance on Meet the Press.  Remember, it isn’t only Mexican immigrants that this site is aimed at.  There are all sorts of immigrants coming from South American countries with long traditions of conservative strong man governments.   These are very natural targets for the Republican message.  It isn’t a huge jump from a Noriega or a Pinochet to a Bachmann.

If you meet a Mexican or South American immigrant, do not automatically assume that they are here illegally.  Instead, in a very friendly manner ask them if you can see their papers.  If they are here legally, they should have no trouble showing you their green card.  If the language barrier is too great be sure to use gestures and talk loudly and slowly.  I have found that many Spanish words end in vowels and often times adding a long “o” sound to the end of words, it helps to make you more easily understood by native Spanish speakers.  If we reach out to our friends from the South, we have a very good chance of taking back the White House in 2010.

I was listening to Rush Limabugh the other day and he made a great point about Obama’s trip to Buchenwald in Germany–”Who cares”.   Let’s face it folks it’s been 60 years and it’s time to move on and thank our lucky stars that the wholesale slaughter of a people can never happen again.  Limbaugh rightfully took Obama to task for, “ripping  Germany to shreds over something they did 60 years ago.”

Sure the Holocaust was sad and all that, but it is the product of an earlier age over 60 years ago and the result is a whole lot of museums, memorials, and presentations.   Let’s face it, The Holocaust has become big business.  Of course Limbaugh did little to hide his contempt from those who continue to profit from the Holocaust saying “Of course Elie Weisel gets up there and does his thing but it’s 65 years here or close to it.”

When somebody who loves this country as much as Rush Limbaugh and somebody who hates this country as much as Mahmoud Ahmadinejad actually agree on something, its either got to have some merit or they both have to be completely irrational.  Do we really need to refight this battle when it has now been established by Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich that traditional racism is dead and now is the vestige of liberal reverse racists?  Let’s face it most of the Jews who died in the Holocaust would be dead by now anyway.  It is sad, but true.  Fortunately, Rush Limbaugh isn’t afraid to point this out.  Instead, as Republicans we need to let bygones be bygones and move on to an even more dangerous threat—liberal bias.

Last week,  Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX) launched the Media Fairness Caucus, made up of about a dozen House Republicans, aiming to fight liberal media bias before the liberals can get to Fox News.  As Smith said, Let me just say — this is going to sound radical, I don’t mean for it to be radical — but to me, the greatest threat to America is not necessarily a recession or even another terrorist attack. The greatest threat to America is liberal media bias.”

This doesn’t sound radical to me at all.  Some of Smith’s complaints include attempts by the media to try and tie the Bush administration to the current Obama recession, being too pro immigrant, not calling Obama “liberal” often enough, and not grilling the First Lady with hard hitting questions.   This evil that was brought down upon the Republican Party this past election party is something that we can never forget.   As Republicans we must cry out when we see such liberal bias–Never again!

I have posted before that if we’re serious about turning the Republican Party around we need to get more elite. Our brand has to be like the Navy Seals or limited edition Precious Moments figurines. By cutting the number of Republicans way down, we can create a demand for us that will only serve us well in future elections. Obviously, Republicans in name only (RINOs) like Colin Powell, Olympia Snow, and the McCains need to hit the road, but who are the other threats to our party from within.

7. Rick Perry – When he ran for governor, he promised to secure the Texas / mexico border. As soon as he was elected, he totally reneged on the promise.
He also got a new business tax approved that was supposed to relieve residential property tax payers of their crushing taxes. Not only are business paying taxes they didn’t have to pay prior to 2008, homeowners are paying more property tax.

6. Pete Sessions – As head of the RNCC was complicit in allowingrampant RINOism to spread.

5. Lindsay Graham – His last opponent in the South Carolina Republican primary had a campaign slogan that “Lindsay Graham is too liberal for South Carolina.” I think he went even further over the top when he had a disgustingly kiss kis press conference showing his support for Obama.

4. Mitch McConnell – Was in favor of a stimulus package and big government spending

3. Nancy Reagan – She’s pro-stem cell research, she was a big McCain supporter in the primary over legitimate conservatives, and she has become an embarrassment to her husband’s legacy.

2. Newt Gingrich – He’s been making the round on liberal networks to attack Rush and Dick Cheney for their strident defense of America.

1. Dick Cheney - Though it pains me to admit it, Cheney is a big government liberal at heart. That can’t be changed by simply waterboarding a few terrorists.

Simply, by getting rid of these 7 pseudo Republicans, our party will become stronger. Let’s not waste time showing them them the door.

At just about the 4 minute mark, Newt Gingrich begins to explain why the Obama relationship with Jeremiah Wrong is very different from McCain’s relationship with Pastor Hagee. I wish that he had credited me, but it is great to know that Gingrich even follows my blog. He’s a brilliant man and a great American. I feel very honored to have him quoting me.  See for yourself at:
