Is it time for a third
party?
Patriot Update – Sean Aland –
2/20/2013
The Tea Party, despised by
both establishment Democrats and Republicans, is the new representative of
conservatives. It stands for the conservative, Christian, constitutional,
capitalist, small-government ideology.
Simply stated the
contemporary Democratic Party represents the far left, the Republican Party
represents the moderate left, and the Tea Party represents real conservatives
who are trying to salvage our country.
Currently both parties
suffer from an identity crisis with Blue Dog Democrats supporting socialism and
the Republican Party abandoning its base.
The mission of The Tea Party
is simple and still relevant. It calls for elected officials and the
bureaucrats who administer their policies to follow the Constitution and listen
to the people they represent.
The Tea party supports
candidates who commit to the original founding principles of the Constitution:
limited federal government, state’s rights, free markets, balanced budgets, no
deficits and a strong military. They believe in the basic principles of freedom
and liberty vs. a Government that knows best. Remind establishment politicians that they
work for the people.
Apparently a lot of the
conservative base did not vote because they felt ignored by a GOP controlled by
moderates. The GOP representative was asked “at what point will the Republican
Party stop ignoring the base of conservative Christians while chasing after
moderates?” His answer was that, “we tell candidates that it is OK to
believe the conservative Christian stuff, just don’t tell anyone.” His
statement validated the belief of real conservatives—moral and economic
conservatives—that the mainstream Republican Party seeks power at the
expense of morals and integrity.
Perhaps it is time to adopt
the European model of two major political parties, the Socialist party and the
Conservative party. The progressive Democrats and RINO’s would feel more at
home in a Socialist Party , and the Blue Dog Democrats and GOP conservatives
that still have an ounce of character could start rebuilding a constitutional,
small government, Conservative Party under the tutelage of the Tea Party
Patriots.
