Comments on: Third Party? Maybe, Say Christian Leaders

Meeting Of Influential Conservatives Reflects Frustration Over Current GOP Field

[mcvet]

The problem with the moral right wing is they believe that the past was better than the present and the future. They are nut cases and I for one would like to see them leave the Republican party maybe it would go back to being the Grand Old Party. But as soon as any party starts to pick up pace they like vultures jump on board and try to take it over. So I say let the losers go and we can pretty much shut them down.

These people are NOT going to leave the Republican Party, they finally have a "National Party" which is why the left the Democrat Party in the first place. These people will only leave the Republican Party when and if the Party decides to kick them out. Putting a Pro Choice Canidate on the ticket in this next election would, in effect, kick them out in much the same way that the Democrats forcing a vote on the Civil Rights Act forced them out of that party.

The pitiful thing is, jimfinster, you are absolutely right. Since we have a representative government, the more moral and conservative a nominee is, the greater the loss, only illuminates the true moral condition of our country. Instead of gloating, you should be mourning, but that is only for those who greive

Could you or anyone else in the Religious Reich give us all a date, a SPECIFIC DATE in time, when YOU think this nation was more "Moral" than it is today? I''ve asked you losers this question over and over and have never gotten an answer. There has to be a date certain we can discuss isn''t there IF you are right! The Problem is folks they can''t give you a date certain because when you roll the calendar back to that date and look at "Christian Conservatives" during THAT time, it''s embarrassing. Not only are they wrong they are so WRONG no one would admit it. So let''s have it all you Religious Nuts out there, what''s the date? 1956? 1948? What''s a good date we can look at? Sieg Heil and Amen

An elite group with only a few hundred members, the CNP meets three times a year, usually at posh hotels or resorts, going to extraordinary lengths to keep its agenda and membership secret. According to members willing to speak about it, however, the council unites right-wing billionaires with scores of conservative Christian activists and politicians, and these encounters have spawned countless campaigns and organizations.

Supported by moneybags such as Texas oilman Nelson Bunker Hunt, Amway founder Richard DeVos and beer magnate Joseph Coors, some in the group helped fund Oliver North''s secret campaign to aid the Nicaraguan contra rebels during the 1980s and financed the right-wing jihad against President Clinton in the 1990s. (The impeachment effort was reportedly conceived at a June 1997 meeting of the CNP in Montreal.) In addition, the group has funded an army of Christian organizers. Falwell says that in the past two decades, he has raised hundreds of millions of dollars for his ventures, including Liberty University, through the CNP. "My guess is that literally billions of dollars have been utilized through the Council for National Policy that would not otherwise have been available," he says. Bush attended a CNP meeting at the start of his presidential campaign in 1999 to seek support, and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld took part in the group''s gathering last April in Washington, D.C.

singinrick,

Where do you get that sftodd insulted Christians in his post about a 3rd party? His point was it would dilute the conservative vote and make it safer for leftists to dilute the Democratic vote by forming their own party.

That development would greatly benefit both the Democratic and Republican PArties.

Now that was truly an insult of both Christian cultural conservatives and ultra-left paranoia coming from a liberal Christian. You see, you are not the anointed spokesperson for all Christians.

Council for National Policy:

TheocracyWatch, a CRESP project, describes it as "an umbrella organization of right-wing leaders who gather regularly to plot strategy, share ideas and fund causes and candidates to advance the theocratic agenda."[5] Southeastern Louisiana University philosophy professor Barbara Forrest says of the Council for National Policy "The CNP membership also includes a sizeable segment of Christian Reconstructionists: "Reconstructionists espouse a radical theology that calls for trashing the U.S. Constitution and replacing it with the harsh legal code of the Old Testament. They advocate the death penalty for adulterers, blasphemers, incorrigible teen-agers, gay people, ''witches'' and those who worship ''false gods''.

DAMMMM! These guys sound like the Taliban! I wonder how many people realize what this organization is really all about???

[jimfinster]

Being a Christian conservative myself I must admit that there aren''t really any strong candidates in the Republican party running this time from a moral and social standpoint. Voting for the lesser of the 2 evils will be the determining factor come election time.

WOW! Newsflash folks, singinrick is a CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVE! Rick, we never knew!

Seriously, I have to chuckle at your forlon post. But you really don''t get it. The more conservative and "moral" the Republican nominee is, the bigger his loss will be. After 8 years of good old GWB, Americans are thoroughly sick of that fake pious crappola.

The more parties the better. Maybe it would be harder for the corporations and special interests to subvert our Democracy.
