HOW DO WE GET BACK ON TRACK AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC STAUNCHLY BACK IN THE CONSERVATIVE WING OF THE GOP CAMP?

What should Republicans do immediately following the swearing in of a CONSERVATIVE majority in the House, the Senate, and POTUS? Even if the Obama-Bin-Biden and al-Democrats pull squeak out re-election, the Congress needs to pass and make him Pass or Veto what?!?!

• LINE ITEM VETO
  Remember that one?!?! The last one, IMNSHO, was NOT Unconstitutional as previously defined as the SCOTUS failed to consider and contrast the Congressional employed “Omni-Bill” process to reduce the President’s Veto authority lumping more together that should have been presented as separate pieces of Budgetary Legislation. A new Line-Item Veto Constitutional Amendment must be passed and sent onto the States for ratification consideration.
• REPEAL OBAMAOCARE
  Full repeal through the House (again), the Senate, and on to the POTUS for signing.
• REPEAL FRANK/DODD and CRA
  Raise the FDIC protections to $500,000 and then make clear there will be NO MORE BANK BAILOUTS.
• CUT DEPARTMENTAL PAYROLLS 10%
  As well as cutting their Budgets by 10% also, and NO they are not the same or mutually exclusive (but people who have never run a business may never understand the distinctions). The following Departments need their Payrolls (and Budgets) immediately ordered reduced by 10% as they’ve had far too much time (and too large of Staff) if they could meddle where they shouldn’t. EPA (Cap-And-TradeTax {Climate $cam} end around), FCC (Net Neutrality end around), HHS (Obamaocare and more), Education Dept. (No Politician’s relatives left behind Dept.), Dept. of Energy (it only takes one employee to stamp APPROVED or DENIED on Permits), Commerce, Labor (NRLB), Treasury, and on and on… Also, immediately reduce any/all amounts of ANY Department that has GRANT MONEY available by 20% minimum.
• Spending Cuts A to Z
  Those (1 page) individual Bills from each and every member of the House proposing individual (how about, REAL/ACTUAL) Budget Cuts – to be voted up or down, without amendment; but after Public Posting, minimum 72 hour review, with each side for/against putting up their best spokespersons limited to 2 hours (so we actually get votes).
• Essential Government Services Act
  This Bill MUST be designed/developed and passed BEFORE the next Budget, Debt Ceiling, etc… crisis comes along to REMOVE any Demoncrat demagoguing of the issues of what Government Services and Processes/Procedures remain in effect should (yeah right, when an eventual) GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN occur. No longer can the Democrats claim troops wouldn’t be paid, because payment to them would be assured under the Act. No longer would they claim Seniors wouldn’t get Social Security checks, because those being cut/sent would also be assured. Grossly reduced (say, 10% funding levels) to most Departments would be allowed to keep the Building lights on and Security Personnel to Guard them while their Staffs’ would be furloughed! What else would/should be defined in such an Act?!?!
• True TAX REFORM
  Flat Tax reform or for those who favor the Fair Tax you need a Constitutional Amendment that Repeals Federal Govt. authority to levy an Income related Tax and replaces it with the Consumption Tax or we will land up with both just like Canada.
• Federal Officials Enhanced Eligibility (TERM LIMITS)
  Whether any individual Politician wants the limits or not, such an Amendment should be drafted, passed, and sent onto the States for WE THE PEOPLE (to pressure our States’ for/against) to decide!!!
  Personally, I’d like language ‘any person having served a period of 9 years’ (this allows for some time having been appointed, special elections, split terms of service, etc… concerns) ‘to be ineligible for any future Elections to the House of Representatives.’ *and* same language for 11 years for the Senate. Plus, any person having Term Limited out shall be ineligible for Lobbying for a period of 5 years, if they want to hang around they can serve on the staff of a Freshman Politician and make themselves useful for far less pay and glory (if they truly wish to continue to serve).
• repeal of the 17th Amendment Constitutional Amendment
  Repeal of 17th was touched on in the RWU Popular Vote vs. Electoral College – Event comments section (related RWU discussion: [despite (R) 2010 gains] Exporting/Expanding BLUEism) or a lengthy old discussion of it: 17th repeal.
• BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT
  Various organizations have discussed such language for decades, the different plans/approaches can/should be discussed and one chosen or many of them merged/modified to produce a reasonable Amendment.

[from Conservative Candidates (the Diary)]
the “Republican Revolution” of the 90′s was mis-labeled, it was really the “CONSERVATIVE Revolution” and it brought Republicans to power; likewise, it was the “Reagan Conservative” Revolution, not a Republican Revolution. Many Republicans forgot that along the way. That led the way for CINO Democrats to lie their way back into power, but it was a “Conservative” co-opted (read: they lied about their intent) that voters allowed themselves to be duped into. Republicans need to REMEMBER that! Conservatism did NOT lose Elections, bad Politicians (with R’s beside their name) did!

back on point, though that wasn’t really a variation from point (Conservatism), is that we must remind Republicans that a return to those things not accomplished under the Contract should be revisited and fought for!!!! That message will remain pertinant until they again “GET IT” (hopefully by 2010)!!!

It is up to another true “Republican” President to keep the promises of the said contract.

That Contract must be re-established. I hope the McCain/Palin ticket wins this election and does what Democrat-controlled Bush Administration has failed to deliver.
