Happy Birthday RNC!

On this day in 1856 the Republican National Committee was born, founded by a group of brave Republicans who opposed the Democrats Pro-Slavery platform. From Grand Old Partisan:

Republicans from many state parties held their first national organizational meeting in Pittsburgh on February 22, 1856. Presiding over this preliminary session was former U.S. Senator Lawrence Brainerd (VT), a resolute anti-slavery activist.

The next day, delegates chose the first Republican National Committee. New York’s Republican state Chairman, Edwin Morgan, was then elected the first Chairman of the RNC. He had the immense responsibility of organizing the first Republican National Convention, to be held just four months later in Philadelphia. Morgan would be elected Governor of New York and U.S. Senator.

The G.O.P. should be celebrating it’s rich history instead of allowing the party to fracture. A good start would be reading the book Back to Basics for the Republican Party. Then visit the authors site Grand Old Partisan.

Obama Girl Didn’t Vote for Obama … Or Anyone

What a shock. Model/actress Amber Lee Ettinger didn’t vote in her native N.J. primary. It’s almost like she was never interested in the Democratic primary at all.

Lawhawk is shocked. Me, not so much. You really think a hot chick like her is a Democrat? More like one of those attractive (but crazy) Ron Paul cultists. You know, like Donna D’Errico.

So what’s Amber Lee been up to if not helping the nutroots Messiah get elected. What she does best, baby:

The model with her is Amina Sade, if you want to know. She’s got a couple of galleries on her site with the not so Obama girl that are made to order for a bad day that keeps getting worse.

Vote Romney!

Tammy Bruce is carrying the flag for Republicans everywhere and rallying a discouraged base to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. In this appearance on Fox Tammy shows the party faithful what it means to be passionate again, something many of us have forgotten in this era of web pundits who act as our surrogate voices and unfortunately seem to have accepted defeat already:

She’s right. McCain is Clinton in drag and Romney is being marginalized by the media because they know his message of conservatism and freedom will resonate with Americans more so than bitter socialism. Fredheads take note, Mitt Romney is our best choice for President. Liz Cheney, the Vice President’s daughter and a fellow Fredhead, makes the case for Romney:

Rick Santorum makes the case for him as a wartime President:

Tammy Bruce, Liz Cheney and Rick Santorum make strange bedfellows, but what they all have in common is their seriousness and passion. They couldn’t be more different from each other except in one respect: they all want what’s best for this country. If you’re a Republican, if you’re an independent who understands that we cannot afford to lose the war against Wahabbism, if you’re an American who still believes in free markets and personal choice, Mitt Romney is the only candidate that has your interest at heart.

Mitt Romney is no Reagan, it is true, but he’s a good man, a good leader and is stepping forward today when the Republican party and America is at a crossroads. Left and right, the front runners in the presidential campaign seek to drag a prosperous America back into the grim days of planned economies, governmental excess and “progressivism” at any cost.

McCain or Clinton, Obama or Huckabee, the candidates all are calling for big government, increased taxes and Soviet style control over the free markets of not just goods but ideas. They seek to appease our enemies, disarm our citizens and allow our border states to be over run. All of them will be ruinous for America, all but one.

Mitt Romney is the only candidate that believes in Reagan’s principles, that only candidate that knows class warfare doesn’t lead to shared prosperity, only bitter divides. Mitt Romney is the only candidate that knows that the innovation of our industries is reliant on free markets, that business is a part of what makes America great. Mitt Romney understands the war we fight in Iraq is only part of the larger war that is slowly enveloping the entire world, and is ready to ensure our victory not just in Baghdad, but in Berlin, in Belize and if necessary in Boston.

Mitt Romney may not be Ronald Reagan, but Reagan’s advice to a nation 40 years ago is as true now as it was then. It is a time for choosing, and we make a choice not just for who will be President for the next four years, but whether America after those four years will be the great nation it has always been, or a crumbling ruin gutted from the inside by those who seek only power:
