#131 - I Agree With Rush Limbaugh - Forget Social Conservatism And Revive Fiscal Conservatism

PLEASE COMMENT, SUBSCRIBE AND FRIEND ME, THANKS.
---
Did anyone catch Rush Limbaugh's speech a few days ago at CPAC? Its good to see that the GOP has finally figured out that the way to get back into voters good books is to turn back to being the party of fiscal responsibility. Not once did Limbaugh or Jindal for that matter mention social conservatism. The reality of the political situation in this country is that its all well and good to be libertarian and vote for the libertarian party, but a third party can NEVER win power in this country. The duopoly has made pretty damn sure of that. So unless we just want to keep talking about free speech and free markets (which is about as far as a third party can go) we need to infiltrate both the Democrat and Republican parties and infect them with the ideas of free speech, free markets and limited government. Its almost a good thing that the GOP got crushed in the last election - now they can rebuild themselves into a true more Goldwater conservative party - which is more like a true libertarian vision anyways. So my advice, infiltrate the GOP, infect all of their members with the free market virus, and for Gods sake, stop talking about things like stopping gay marriage, abortions and the like. Just stay out of that conversation by just not funding those programs with taxpayer money. When people say, America as a country is center-right, what they are really saying is "This country is Conservative Libertarian"

Now is the perfect time for the GOP to right their wrongs. Bring back fiscal conservatism, less government, and focus on more on border security.

Ron Paul 2012... other alternatives include Bobby Jindal and Bob Barr.

Exactly. My hope is that like Goldwater begat Reagan, Paul will begat a true fiscally conservative Goldwater republican. Question is who? Romney, no. Jindal? Possibly. Palin. Never. Limbaugh? Doubtful. Where is the capitalist counterpoint to the messiah? We need a kick-ass, unapologetic capitalist to sweep in and take over. But who?

I like your way of thinking. I mean, I don't necessarily agree with everything you're saying (as I tend to prescribe to a more liberal-libertarian POV contrasting your conservative-libertarian one) but I have a respect for people who form their own opinions. Well done.

well most of the polls they like to use aren't even theirs..

[RetroVGamer]

I think it's hilarious how every single poll that Fox news conducts, just happens to fall in their favor. Can they just once in a while, let a poll fall in favor of President Obama. So it's at least more realistic and believable.

So how do you determine the right size of Government. Was the Arpanet Project (Early Internet) a wasteful government program. ?

Can you imagine this country without the Intestate Roads ?

What would happen if Public Education, National Parks and PBS/NPR were eliminated.

These are the things I really love in this world.

Everybody wants efficient lean governments, but you absolutely need to lead with some programs. There are certain things the Private industry can't or shouldn't do.

I agree with this.. I belong to the Republican Liberty Caucaus

[milfrie]

I listen to Rush everyday and I am a libertarian.. he seldom talks about social conservatism except once in a great while abortion or to highlight hypocrisy on the left.

Actually, Foxnews reports a ton of interesting stories, and reports them accurately, and apologizes when they get something wrong.
