Valin Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Townhall: Katie Pavlich Feb 26, 2015 The 2015 Conservative Political Action Conference kicks off today at the Gaylord National Harbor Hotel in Maryland, just outside of Washington D.C. This year's conference will no doubt determine the future of the Republican Party and possibly the country as potential 2016 presidential candidates hit the stage to make their case. "The American Conservative Union has an important role to play as the Republican presidential nominating process begins at CPAC 2015. Nearly every top-tier candidate will appear and speak at the event. Our goal is to continue the tradition of bringing together the leaders of the conservative movement with activists from around the country. We want to have a meaningful discussion about conservative policy solutions while getting the first major look at those who would seek to lead conservatives and Republicans. 2015 is the critical year, due in large part to the fact that conservatives will play the largest role in picking the next GOP nominee in key states," American Conservative Union Chairman Matt Schlapp told Fox News' Dana Perino recently. "The field is large, interesting, and filled with strong candidates. I believe the most important role of ACU is to encourage a lively debate and primary process while at the same time reminding activists that the goal is to defeat the Democratic candidate. We want a conservative standard bearer, balanced with the absolute necessity to win. A Democratic win that would mirror a third Obama term would be a catastrophe for the federal judiciary, American energy production, the regulatory state and with the reemergence of the threat from radical Islam. The conservative movement needs to be ready for its close-up because the stakes are high." Potential 2016 GOP candidates slated to hit the CPAC stage over the next three days include Carly Fiorina, Ted Cruz, Rick Santorum, Bobby Jindal, Sarah Palin, Chris Christie, Scott Walker, Rand Paul, Mike Pence, Jeb Bush, Dr. Ben Carson, John Bolton, Marco Rubio and Rick Perry. Carson will kick off the conference Thursday morning as the first speaker. (Snip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 @Draggingtree Moved it Here Mike Lee at CPAC: Beware of “unserious” presidential candidates spouting conservative platitudes POSTED AT 11:21 AM ON FEBRUARY 26, 2015 BY ALLAHPUNDIT Via Raw Story, the buzziest line from the morning session of opening day, received tepidly by an audience that’s there precisely because they want to spend a few days gorging on ideological red meat. This is like standing up in a crowded steakhouse and imploring people to consider the health benefits of vegetarianism. Good argument, wrong venue. Who’s this directed at and who’s it aimed at benefiting? One obvious target is Trump. Another is Ben Carson, the man who preceded Lee on stage this morning. Both of them are positioning themselves as right-wing populists, the sort of 2016 niche that’s coveted by — ta da — Mike Lee’s frequent ally Ted Cruz. He’s the main beneficiary of this, I assume. even though Cruz himself is often derided by big media as being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 CPAC attendees plan to walk out on Jeb Bush Seth McLaughlin Thursday, February 26, 2015 A movement is underway to stage an informal protest when former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush hits the CPAC stage Friday. William Temple, a member of the Golden Isle Tea Party, told The Washington Times that the party doesnt need another Bush in office, and said that the party should listen to the grass-roots activists that helped fuel their gains in the 2014 election. A lot of peoples were not going to come here because they heard Jeb Bush was speaking, Mr. Temple said before laying out his plan at the Conservative Political Action Conference. We are going to get up en masse, and we are going to walk out on him, the 64-year-old said. We are not going to interrupt anyones speech, but we are all going to exercise our right to [use] the bathroom at the same time. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ And This is a great chance to get our names in the paper!

Draggingtree Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Elections Have Consequences, But Not “Consequences” Consequences, You Revanchist Tea Party Short-Bussers!Posted on | March 1, 2015 | 9 Comments by Smitty Just a side note in a Hot Air post, . . .Republicans in the Senate have been pressing for the interpretation of a rules governing budgetary reconciliation that would allow the upper chamber to pass a full repeal of [ObamaCare] with a simple majority vote rather than with the support of 60 Senators (requiring at least six Democratic defections). Latest week, Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough ruled that such a maneuver would not be possible. Interesting. From The Hill link above: Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Tea Party groups, including FreedomWorks and the Senate Conservatives Fund, have called on the Republican-led Congress to use reconciliation on ObamaCare. http://theothermccain.com/2015/03/01/elections-have-consequences-but-not-consequences-consequences-you-revanchist-tea-party-short-bussers/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
