Rubio’s first trip is to Israel

Rightwing Latins are some of Israel’s staunchest friends. Whether it’s Aznar and the Popular Party in Spain, the Uribe and now Santos government in Colombia, Berlusconi in Italy, Chile, Panama, and Costa Rico all are supporters for the nation of Israel. One of the reason is that Conservative Latins tend to be strong in their Catholic faith so as per Vatican II, the replacement theology was removed and the Covenant Jews have with God is considered as valid and unrevoked. Rightwing Latins also are proud of their Roman Imperial and Spanish Imperial heritage and thus realize that Israel has the same traditional enemy as the Latin peoples, Islam. Also as Spain, Portugal and Italy are the homeland of the Latins, Israel is the homeland of the Jews. As such they have a right to a homeland, the same way we do.  Therefore it is no shocker that newly elected Senator Marco Rubio is now traveling to Israel to show support.

First they took Washington, now they’ll take Jerusalem? With victory in the congressional elections less than a day old, Florida Senator Marco Rubio (Rep.) who considers himself a ‘Tea Party’ member, is set to arrive in Israel on Sunday. Rubio’s visit so soon after the election win is a move that strengthens assessments that the congress in its current form will continue where it left off – at least where Israel is concerned.

The pro-Israeli AIPAC lobby applauded the election results, congratulated the winners and said: “It is abundantly clear that the 112th Congress will continue America’s long tradition of staunch support for a strong, safe and secure Israel and an abiding friendship between the United States and our most reliable ally in the Middle East.”

Marco Rubio gets the nature of the enemy. He is proud of his heritage and knows the danger of Islamic-Imperialism. Therefore in his mind, it’s a no brainer supporting a nation that is surrounded by their enemies and  people who also love their homeland. Rome and Jerusalem are the heart of Western Civilization, therefore the heirs of these two great cities must stand together against the enemy of our civilization.

Post Election Analysis

This is my post election analysis about last night elections. I speak for myself and not the blog.

This was a clear rejection of Tranzi Totalitarian  Progressivism and not an embrace of the Republicans. Many of the districts won were in Republican hands until 2006 and 2008. In those elections, the electorate rejected big Government Compassionate Conservatism and voted for fiscal conservative Blue Dogs. As it turns out, the Democrats pulled a fast one on the electorate and their real masks were revealed. This angered the public and they Republicans were given another chance. They better stick to real conservatism not the compassionate big spending kind  or in 2 years a 3rd party will emerge.

Marco Rubio’s threat to Progressives

The Tranzi Totalitarian Progressive Movement is terrified about Nov. 2nd. It’s not just the losses they will incur, but the rise of Marco Rubio. He is the first prominent Republican since Reagan who is charismatic and knows how to communicate effectively.

Marco Rubio also knows how to discuss the illegal immigration issue from a  point of view that’s different than the Nativist wing of the GOP. To him its about fairness and following the law. As a son of Cuban immigrants his beef isn’t that the illegals are Mexican or other Central Americans, it’s that they are being rewarded at the expense of millions of people who have to wait years to get in. This take on the illegal issue neutralizes the Democrats argument and turns the tables on them.

The Progressives  showed their racist colors by trying to get Kendrick Meeks to drop out and support Charlie Crist to stop Marco Rubio. This didn’t work and tomorrow, America will have a new political star on the scene.

Marco Rubio is the newest Republican star, but not for any obvious reasons. On policy, the Senate hopeful from the Sunshine State blends in easily with the tea party crowd. Less government, taxes and debt, check; repeal ObamaCare, ditto. More eye-catching are his boyish good looks, a gift for speechmaking, and inspirational biography and ethnic roots. Yet those were Barack Obama’s attributes as well. Two years into his presidency they are devalued novelties, no matter which party card you hold.

Something else accounts for Mr. Rubio’s rise from a blip in polls against the popular governor in his party, to the runaway favorite tomorrow. He appealed as a different sort of Republican. He kept his pitch upbeat, shunned personal attacks, worked hard to widen support without apologizing for his conservatism, and more noticeably than anyone in this race ran on an unabashed and constantly invoked faith in American exceptionalism.

[…]

The GOP’s cranky side seems to bother him. He argues that the Republican Party needs to offer up clear alternatives to liberal policy, not just say no, and brighten its tone along the way. Take immigration. “Where Republicans have failed: We should be the pro-legal immigration party, not the anti- illegal immigration party,” he says. If he wins, Mr. Rubio will be the most prominent elected Hispanic official in the U.S. from either party.

Read the rest: Who’s Afraid of Marco Rubio?

Marco Rubio is a rarity among modern Republicans, he is a great communicator and can think on his feet. The last series of Republican leaders like Bush Sr. Dole, Bush Jr and McCain were terrible communicators and the press ate them alive. Rubio turns tables on the press, plus he enjoys the back and forth. Marco Rubio is probably the best GOP politician since Reagan. He is a rising star and could very well be the death knell for the Democratic party. The Progressives fear him and that says something about him.

Friday with the Hammer: The Rodan edition!

Speranza is out on vacation so I humbly will give Friday with the Hammer my spin!

Our 3rd World Liberation ideologue president is blaming American paranoia for why he’s not appreciated. Rather than admit he’s gone too far Left, Barack Hussein Obama he blames the American people’s anxiety for his decline in popularity. This is the Tranzi Totalitarian Progressive moveme view that Americans are too dumb to know what good for us. This attitude reflects only one thing, the American left hates this nation and wants to impose its worldview on us.

In an increasingly desperate attempt to develop a narrative for the coming Democratic collapse, the Democrats have indulged themselves in what for half a century they’ve habitually attributed to the American right: the paranoid style in U.S. politics.

The talk is of dark conspiracies — secret money, foreign influence, big corporations, with Karl Rove and, yes, Ed Gillespie lurking ominously behind the scenes. The only thing missing is the Halliburton-Cheney angle.

[…….]

The electorate apparently is deranged by its anxieties and fears to the point where it can’t think straight. Part of the reason “facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time,” he explained to a Massachusetts audience, “is because we’re hard-wired not to always think clearly when we’re scared. And the country is scared.”

When Progressives won elections in 2006 and 2008, they praised the American people as enlightened. President Hussein talked about fundamentally changing America and is now upset that he’s meeting resistance. Now that the public is rejecting this evil ideology, they are showing the contempt they have for us. Barack Hussein Obama and his cronies like Harry Reid have the Neo-Feudal attitude that we as peasants should be grateful and can’t understand what “good” they are doing. This is why they will lose on Nov 2nd, the American people don’t like to be called stupid and looked down upon. Americans don’t serf!

Update: Here’s a condescending piece by the Washington Post about Hispanic Republicans. Rather than point out that Latin Conservatives are poised for big wins and this shows the GOP isn’t racist, the article all but calls them traitors. In the mind of the Racist Left, Hispanics have to support illegals. It has never occurred to them than illegals have caused problems for Spanish people in America. We suffer from crime, identity theft and resentment from part of the population that thinks all Hispanics are illegals.

Martinez is one of a trio of Latino Republicans poised to win high office this year in part by running on an anti-immigration platform. In Florida, Senate candidate Marco Rubio is ahead of Democrat Kendrick Meek and independent Charlie Crist. And in Nevada, gubernatorial candidate Brian Sandoval is leading Democrat Rory Reid.

If they win, Martinez, Rubio and Sandoval would make up a high-profile triumvirate that Republicans hope will help the party woo increasingly influential Latino voters. The nation’s fastest-growing voting bloc – nearly half the voters in New Mexico, for instance, are of Latino origin – has largely shunned the GOP in recent years.

Yet those Republican hopes may be difficult to realize, if only because the GOP’s anti-immigration rhetoric is a primary reason Latinos have turned away from the party.

I’m really tired of these Progressive racists telling me how I should think. La Raza are nothing but  capos for the modern Nazis aka Demon-KKK-Rat party. Progressives also have whitewashed 150 years of human history by covering up the existence of the Spanish Empire in schools. They only mention how evil the Spanish were towards Native Americans and the inquisition. No mention of my ancestors glorious victories like Lepanto, our literary achievements, the artistic achievements of the Spanish Golden Age and the fact we saved Western Civilization. Reading this makes me hate the American left and even more!

Update II:Peggy Noonan has a great article on how the Tea party saved the Republican Party. It has brought back Goldwater/Reagan Conservatism as opposed to the hypocritical Compassionate Conservatism aka Progressivism with a Bible.

Two central facts give shape to the historic 2010 election. The first is not understood by Republicans, and the second not admitted by Democrats.

The first: the tea party is not a “threat” to the Republican Party, the tea party saved the Republican Party. In a broad sense, the tea party rescued it from being the fat, unhappy, querulous creature it had become, a party that didn’t remember anymore why it existed, or what its historical purpose was. The tea party, with its energy and earnestness, restored the GOP to itself.

I hope the GOP stays true to real Conservative principles.
