Aim High With Bob

Bob Conley is a fascinating phenomenon in many ways, including this one:

"The South Carolina Democratic Party establishment's reaction to a previous press release, where Bob Conley accused the state's top party leadership of supporting a far left agenda, was dismissive of Bob Conley. Carol Fowler, in particular, denied the party leadership was pursuing a far left agenda and accused Bob Conley of being "inexperienced" in his appraisal of their intentions.

Ms. Fowler seems to have come down with a bad case of foot-in-mouth disease. With her declaration that Republican Party Vice-Presidential nominee, Sarah Palin's "primary qualification seems to be that she hasn't had an abortion," Carol Fowler has irrefutably lent full faith and credit to Bob Conley's accusation of her obvious far-left agenda of which the rank-and-file Democratic voters in the state are not supportive."

Just read over Bob's pitch for the Senate:

"Lower Your Gas Prices: Bob Conley sees solutions to reduce your gas prices through the use of alternative energy and conservation. To end our dependence on foreign oil, we need to change our energy policy. Bob will fight for this change by: encouraging more energy production at home, promoting the development of alternative energy sources, wider use of proven alternative energy solutions, and encouraging the use of energy-saving technologies. We’ll regain energy independence and create good jobs in the process!

Iraq: Bob Conley believes it is time to end the occupation, and support our troops by bringing them home!
Jobs & Immigration: Bob supports secure borders and wants South Carolinians to have first choice of jobs in South Carolina.

Jobs & Trade: Bob Conley says no to trade agreements that send our good, well-paying jobs to foreign lands. The U.S. needs to withdraw from trade agreements that have cost us 3.5 million of our good manufacturing jobs since 2001!

Bob will promote and restore America First trade policies. We need to follow the Constitution – Congress is to regulate trade with foreign nations. We must end most favored nation status for Communist China. Bob is our fighter to change trade policies, correct our massive trade imbalance, and keep our good jobs here at home.

Economy: We must implement fiscal policies to end deficit spending. Bob Conley believes we must change our monetary policy, restore sound, honest money, and halt the fall of the dollar. We must stop predatory lending practices, end the Wall Street bailouts, and put a lid on massive expenditures abroad.

Military: Overseas deployments of occupation are breaking our military. Deployments in recent years have left 80% of our National Guard units without the necessary equipment for training – and the missions they should be prepared to serve here at home. Our National Guard needs to be rebuilt.

Veterans: Bob Conley believes veterans need to be given adequate care, not shuffled around in a Veterans’ Administration that should be overhauled. Bob will work to pass a new GI Bill for our veterans who have fought in the twenty-first century.

Constitution and the Bill of Rights: Bob Conley will fight to repeal the Big Brother legislation passed by rubber-stamp Republican Congresses. We cannot afford to give up essential liberties under the false pretense of security. Measures that infringe on our individual liberties protected by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights must be repealed! We must restore the Constitution and respect the principles on which our Republic was founded.

Bob Conley is the candidate, and this campaign is our campaign. Our campaign is about the future of our country. Our campaign is about the future of our State. Our campaign is about the future of our families.

Our message is one of change and hope: to strengthen our families.

Our campaign is about the future of freedom. Our campaign is to build a future of peace and prosperity that will lift up the middle class.

South Carolina needs a United States Senator who can navigate through these tough, turbulent times, solve problems, and build a prosperous future that lifts up the middle class.

South Carolina needs Bob Conley in the United States Senate.

Aim high with Bob!"

This traditional Catholic and Ron Paul activist is a Democrat.

Of course.

For how could any self-respecting lefty disagree with one word of his programme?

And how could any neo-Rightist support it?
