Lehigh Valley Conservative

Well Saturday the 27th (February 2010) was the PA Lehigh County Republican Party’s Lincoln Day fund raising breakfast.  As usual I saw people’s faces that I never see at the regular meetings and have know idea who they were.  The guest speaker was going along fine until the end of his speech when he went off the track by bringing in the lesser of two evils and the possibility of having to vote for that person and I guess it was for the sake of unity because he called for the people in the room to unite and I guess people in general.  He also said that it was our fault that we are on this path and that President Obama is president and guess what I couldn’t agree more.  But unity, when voting for the lesser of two evils is not the answer folks nor is rallying around somebody you never know when he/she is going to go South on you and/or make a wrong turn.

The one thing that was missing through out the speech was the word “Principles” I don’t remember hearing the speak saying anything like “We have lost our principles and the truth of what the founders sought to accomplish in bringing them into the “Constitution”, nor were those principle came from. 

But let me not get to emotional or appear to be irrational and just say—– for anyone to say to me I should consider voting for the lesser of two evils and suggest I unite behind that person has no idea what he is saying or who he is talking too.  I have watch for a long, long time, the strategy and philosophy of voting for the lesser of two evils, and guess what folk’s—– it has not and is not working.

Let me keep it short and just say voting for the lesser of two evils creates the largest possible tent you want to imagine, all in the Republican Party’s name and with the unity of a bunch of fools heading for the cliff like lemmings.  But let me be kind to the party and speaker and say, I’m sure that is not the lesser of two evils, the speaker nor the party have in mind.  But that is the lesser of two evils you have and will continue to get.

We Shall See and shortly how this big tent lesser of two evils works out.
