If the very idea of “purity tests” – or any other sort of “political correctness” – is abhorrent to you, please join our brand-new Centrists Group at Linked In.

We believe that as extremists at both ends of the political spectrum become more vociferous and divisive, many more Americans will move towards the Center. And we welcome all who believe consensus is not only desirable, but possible, whatever their party affiliation or lack thereof.

Provocative, but cordial and respectful, discussions and debate on national and international issues. No Flamers, ranters and ravers, script bots, or clandestine political operatives allowed!

Please contact me at Linked In for an invitation.

Thank you so much.

Ellen Brandt, Ph.D.

This shit is about as stupid as the people that make their kids were abstinence rings (which was probably thought up by the fucking republicans too). The purity pledge is gayer than the shitty drawing of unicorns on a 10 year old girl’s notebook.

Your right except for the hundred year part….but when our monetary system collapses they wont exist anymore and it will be our chance to return to real money and rewards for our labor type Republic that we should be.Its coming sooner than most think…Gold will be $1200 by Christmas and $2000 by the end of next year..People are waking up.I think the whole plan to build a world government will backfire and we will win in the end….

BY LIb, I don’t blame the illegals. If I had the lack of jobs and opportunities afforded by the Mexican Government, I’d head north also. But because they are “the face that can be seen”, they’ll bare the brunt of any backlash. The shame is, the politicians, business owners, and others using these illegals will never be called on it. These give away programs have been with us for over a 100 years now and good luck on elimenating them. If you can find support for the elimenation, call me. Secession won’t work for the same reasons that stopping social welfare programs won’t work….the American people don’t understand the concept that when government gives you something two things happen, 1. you become dependant upon the program thus government now controls what you do and 2. Government in order to give you something has to take it away from someone else. Until the American people regain the sense of being in control of their own destiny and can stand to be called mean and heartless for refusing to support these give aways, you got as much chance of elimenating them as I have at convincing an enviromentalist the global warming is nonsense.

Rick….Well…I don’t see that worth a death sentence…But I will give it to you just being dramatic.It doesn’t take a whole lot to figure out the illegal problem…Mexico has been here as long as the U.S. has.The only reason there is a problem today is the communist agenda in this country to destroy our economy by giving money away to anyone.Be it through welfare,foodstamps,WIC…section 8..etc.stop giving away money..Give them work I.D. cards and they wont need to sneak in…Problem solved.
Really you are blaming the wrong people…If you lived in a poor country and needed to provide for your family you would go where they were giving away money too…It only makes sense..Secession is the easiest cure

By Lib…have been for 57 years….grew up with Mexicans, like them as people. Grew up all over the world, found most people want the same things I do. Work, a decent life, opportunity for my kids, and as your name implys, freedom. Just don’t like illegals. Has nothing to do with hatred, has everything to do with 12.1% unemployment and the long term affects. IF I were out of work and my children were hungry, ya think I’d look kindly on somebody with no right to be here working while my kids were in need. If you haven’t figured out the train wreck thats coming, well it could very well be bad for you. No hatred, just an understanding that that desperate criminal from mexico that sneaked across the border in the dead of night, has no business here.

Heck, they’ll all take the pledge and swear they adhere to it. But will they really ? How can you tell when they’re lying ? Their lips are moving.

Rick…Mexican hatred??..You mean you cant beat a Mexican at a job??..If you are an American I am sure you would have an advantage of getting a job over a Mexican..better English..etc.If you are too lazy and jealous that’s another story…This whole immigration hatred is so misplaced.I appreciate hard working people,,its what we are supposed to be

Here are a few simple ideas to qualify as a responsible elected official( I dont think Republicans can swallow these common sense initiatives)

1. If the budget is not balanced my first year in Washington, I will resign. No funny money games – I mean a real balanced budget. This is the most important issue facing America today.

2. I will force Congress to vote on the ongoing wars and either officially declare war or withhold any more funds going into the undeclared war efforts.

3.Force a complete open audit of the Federal Reserve .

4. Repeal the Patriot Act.

5. Launch investigation into war profiteering and misuse of funds.
