Even the Chairman of the GOP is a die hard socialist. And all the Republican Presidential candidates except Ron Paul fall right in line under the socialist banner. Our country survived and thrived for many generations before there ever was a Department of Health and Human Services. You don't need to replace it with anything except the gospel of Jesus Christ and the sound principles given to us by the Founding Fathers of our country.

Liberty vs. Socialism
Even the Chairman of the GOP is a die hard socialist. And all the Republican Presidential candidates except Ron Paul fall right in line under the socialist banner. Our country survived and thrived for many generations before there ever was a Department of Health and Human Services. You don't need to replace it with anything except the gospel of Jesus Christ and the sound principles given to us by the Founding Fathers of our country.

State of the Republican Party Survey 2009
Cartoon by Gary Varvel found at IndyStar.com 11/5/08Michael Steele, Chairman of the National Republican Committee (NRC), sent me a survey to complete regarding what I felt about the current state of the Republican Party. He also mentioned the need for Republicans to stick to “conservative principles of limited government, economic growth, personal responsibility and a strong national defense.” How very interesting, since the GOP in recent years, violated all of these conservative principles.
A BREACH OF TRUST
Here are some examples where the GOP breached their alleged core beliefs and values.
Here are some examples where the GOP breached their alleged core beliefs and values.
limited government
President Bush and the Republican-led Congress from 2001-2006 expanded the government by passing Medicare Part D (Drug benefit) joining the Democrats in passing ‘No Child Left Behind.’
economic growth
Bush, Paulson and the Democratic Congress pushed for the wasteful TARP funding.
personal responsibility
Bush did little to encourage or to foster personal responsibility. Following 9/11 he did not ask the American people to sacrifice anything for the effort on the War on Terror. He even supported amnesty for illegal aliens. He personally sat on his hands throughout his Presidency regarding border security. Instead he secretly plotted formation of a North American Union (NAU).
national security
The one somewhat positive area was that Bush and Congress built up our weakened military after the Clinton years and after 9/11. However, while they tried hard to guard Afghani and Iraqi borders, they did woefully little to defend our own borders at home from illegal aliens and potential Islamic terrorist infiltrators.
THE QUESTION
The survey Steele sent to Republican 'faithful' were mostly multiple choice questions. The one open-ended question in the survey, actually opened a Pandora's Box for me. Here is how I answered that question.
What can the Republican Party do to earn and maintain your trust?
.
MY ANSWER
Backing true conservatives - social and fiscal - Bush disappointed me greatly, because he spent like a drunken Democrat . . . He USED Christian conservatives to get elected and then only threw them an occasional bone.
He and the GOP in the Senate abused their power - earmarks and preserving power instead of standing firmly on principles.
McCain was an extremely terrible choice for President - he supported amnesty, he was weak on social issues - just like G.W. Bush – only mouthing what the people wanted to hear.
I did not vote for either McCain or Obama. I will no longer vote for the lesser of two evils, which we were presented in the 2008 election.
I will vote for only social and fiscal conservatives in every election. I am very tired of the John McCains, Mike DeWines, George Voinoviches, Arlan Specters, Bob Tafts . . .
The GOP should put out candidates who are strong conservatives both socially and fiscally. It seems like many GOP candidates once elected only work to get re-elected, instead of working for the people and adhering to the principles and promises that got them elected.
I am tired of being used by, and taken for granted by the GOP.
I will be working for and seeking to elect candidates who are conservative regardless of party affiliation.
.
CAN YOU HEAR US NOW?
I sincerely hope that Mr. Steele hears the conservative voices.

Open Letter to Michael Steele, RNC Chairman
I periodically receive telephone and written solicitations from the GOP. The Republican Party wants me, as a evangelical, born-again Christian and social and fiscal conservative, to support their party.
In the letter below I outline my many reservations regarding trusting the GOP.
March 20, 2009
Mr. Michael Steele, Chairman
Republican National Committee
Washington, D.C.
Dear Mr. Steele:
Thank you for serving as the new RNC Chairman. You are enjoyable to listen to when filling in for Dr. Bill Bennett on his “Morning in America” Radio Show.
I am an Owner-Operator hauling steel. Presently the revenue I receive from the business does not cover my expenses. It is just below the break even point. I am putting my truck up for sale and will get out of the business once the truck is sold.
I received a phone call asking me to be sure to fill out the, “2009 State of the Republican Party Survey” so I thought that perhaps you really cared about what I thought. Survey question #6, Part III states: “Please attach a separate sheet of paper if you do not have enough space.”
Several sheets are being sent including writings, mostly by me, which express my viewpoint. Titles are "Righting the G.O.P.", “Insulting My Intelligence”, “Axis of Idiots”, “Not the Time for Profit”, “Has America Gone Beyond Stupid?”, “The Cannibal-In-Chief: Barack Hussein Obama”, “Obama, His Disciples, Associates, & Followers”, and “What is truth”.
Now here are my further comments.
Republicans cannot adopt Democratic Party ideas, policies, proposals and values, which are contrary to my core beliefs. Does the GOP think it can retain my trust? I have a Biblical worldview and liberals do not. This is true whether they are in the Republican Party or in the Democrat Party. Examples are given in my letter to Mr. Duncan, which is attached.
Israel! The fastest way to a non-superpower status is to go against Israel. Look at other nations and their treatment of the Jew: Germany, France, and Great Britain. God is real, and He states that those who curse Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, (Israel) will themselves be cursed by God. The United States has been cursing Israel through the so-called “land for peace” plan ever since President Carter was in office. As a result, America has been suffering for it. God has given this Middle East land to Israel and those nations which divide God’s land, He will destroy (Joel 3:2). I do not support dividing up Jerusalem or having a separate Palestinian state. Gaza should be administered by Israel. The west bank should be administered by Israel. $900 million for the terrorists through the U.N. is stupid; unless one is a terrorist. Even in war games the USA cannot win against Israel. Using 100% U.S. military personal I once read of a Lieutenant General taken out of retirement to lead an aggressor force against the American forces. In three days the aggressor was winning so well the war game was stopped and then the nationality the aggressor was revealed, It was Israel.
President Lyndon B. Johnson had a bill passed that removed the tax exempt status of churches for speaking out on politics. This bill should be removed. It intimidates preachers from speaking from God’s word on politics.
Michael G New SP4 should be rewarded for not submitting to U.N. control as an American Serviceman with an honorable discharge and received financial compensation for time off duty.
Chaplain Rev. James Klingenschmitt was removed from the U.S. Navy when he prayed in the name of Jesus after being ordered not to. He was denied his pension for military service. He should receive his pension and given an honorable discharge. This happened with President Bush as Commander-In- Chief. I am stunned that he would allow such conduct in the military he commanded. This does not build trust for the Republican Party with me.
Evangelism was stopped at the Air Force Academy while President Bush was Commander-In Chief. I thought President Bush is a Christian. Evangelism should not be restricted at any of the Academies, or any College, or any other school. This does not build trust with me for the GOP.
A soldier was evangelizing among the Iraqis and was sent home and disciplined. This should not happen. What ever happened to him should be reversed. This happened under President Bush. It does not make me trust the Republican Party.
I was not pleased when President Bush said that Islam was a peaceful religion. He seamed to equate Islam and Christianity as being the same which we all know is not the case.
President Bush proposed tax cuts and my Republican Senator, George Voinovich, opposed and got the tax cuts reduced by half of what President Bush proposed. This does not make me trust the Republican Party.
Usually nothing Senator John McCain does makes me trust the Republican Party. I did like his pick of Sarah Palin for V.P. and his insistence on the surge in Iraq.
Afghanistan commanders asked for 33,000 additional troops and President Obama sent 19,000. Why didn’t he send 50,000. I didn’t hear any Republicans complain that the President did not do enough. I’m concerned that Obama may set up the troops to lose in Afghanistan. He does hate the military.
By executive order President Obama brought in federally funded Embryonic Stem Cell Research (ESRC). I remember when the House and Senate lead by Republicans sent to President Bush legislation authorizing federally funded ESRC. President Bush vetoed the bill but allowed some ESCR to occur. This did not impress me well. I was angry. Republicans could make laws that outlaw in-vitro-fertilization and keep at it until it passes and is signed. Destruction of a human embryo should be classified as first degree murder.
I don’t like the lack of self control toward spending. The prescription drug program seemed expensive and so did the bailout program. It seems that the President is trying to spend money, instead of identifying the cause of the problem and stopping a continuation of bad practices. Instead only money is being spent. Freddie Mac and Fanny Mae should be closed down. Government should not guarantee loans.
Global warming by CO2 gas is a hoax. I am angered when people speak of it as if it were reality. The Supreme Court was wrong when it said President Bush should stop global warming. The Supreme Court must be opposed.
The United Nations is good for nothing, and the United States should get out of it and get it out of the United States. Its property should then be used for something else. I am not pleased when Republican leaders promote the U.N. I do not like the Law of the Sea Treaty or the Treaty on global warming.
I often think that the number one enemy of the United States is the people in Congress and the White House. These people have taken an oath of office and sworn to uphold and defend The Constitution of The United States of America against all enemies foreign and domestic. Instead of keeping their oaths they are committing treason by misinterpreting and ignoring what the Constitution says.
Sincerely,
sam
