Don't Let the Kooks Hijack the Conservative Movement
I'm very concerned that the Ron Paul, libertarian, isolationist wing will try to hijack the tea party movement and the GOP. These people, like the left, don't believe that islam is at war with us, they don't believe islam is a threat at all and that we should retreat from the war on terror. Instead they hold Jews and Israel responsible for islamic terror. They are every bit as dangerous to national security as the left and the Democrats. We need to get behind candidates like Colonel Allen West and make certain the neocons and Evangelicals maintain power in the Republican party. Pamela Geller had to have her own CPAC event because the main one would not bother to discuss the islamic threat since the American Conservative Union which sponsors CPAC is run by pro-muslim Grover Norquist.

Stop Giving Double Messages, and Energize Americans' Yearning for a Society Based on Generosity, Caring and Love--the only effective alternative to the Tea Party pseudo-populists and other forces of reaction that actually empower the corporate rich.
Dear President Obama, U.S. Senators and Congressional Representatives:
We, the undersigned, plead with you to reframe your political agenda in terms of the core values held by most Americans who elected you: our desire and yearning for a world based on love and generosity, caring for each other and caring for the planet, peace and social justice, and awe and wonder at the grandeur of the universe.
Then, whenever you back a particular piece of legislation or social policy, show us how it does in fact specifically enhance these values in the world.
Please stop giving double messages. You cannot speak the language of peace while you escalate a war. Nor can you give priority to the interests of the banks and investment companies and then try to reclaim a populist banner.
We urge you to support:
* A Global and Domestic Marshall Plan to end once and for all poverty, hunger, homelessness, inadequate education, inadequate health care and to repair the global environment.
* An Environmental and Ethical Responsibility Amendment to the US Constitution that unequivocally says that corporations are not persons, that the Congress has the obligation to dramatically reduce the role of money in politics and in lobbying for social policies, that our government must make environmental sustainability a high priority and encourage democratic control of the economy.
*An end the “War on Terror,” redefine terror as a police issue and terrorists as well-armed criminals, not a threat to our national survival, and order the Armed Services to help in providing those in financial need with assistance and training in needed skills as part a Domestic and Global Marshall Plan. Use your power as Commander in Chief to promote officers who embrace this “Strategy of Generosity” and to direct resources and troops to this most effective path toward homeland security.
* “Medicare For Everyone” and insist on generic drugs to lower their prices
