Video: SHOCKING Evidence Muslim Brotherhood Has Infiltrated The Republican Party

It has been widely reported that the Obama administration is gorged with Muslim Brotherhood members. But did you know that establishment Republicans, like Speaker of the House John Boehner, are also in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood? This according to a blockbuster report per the Center for Security Policy.

Traitors to the left of us, traitors to the right. We are living in scary times, America.

Conservatives Outnumber Liberals in 47 States

(Washington Post) — People who identify as conservative outnumber those who call themselves liberal in 47 states, according to a new Gallup survey.

Nationally, conservatives had a 14.6 percentage point lead on liberals, though that was more than a full point smaller than last year’s lead. The gap in 2013 was largest in Wyoming, where 40.5 percentage points separated those who identified as conservatives from those who identified as liberals. Only Hawaii, Massachusetts, Vermont and D.C. had more liberals than conservatives. The top 10 liberal states voted for Obama during the last two elections, while the top 10 conservative states chose the Republican nominee.

Another Gallup poll this week found that the Democratic party’s advantage in the states had gone down dramatically, though the party can still lay claim to more states than Republicans can. Still, the new findings suggest that most Americans are ideologically at the center to center-right. And the implications for Democrats could be simple: focus on the middle.

“How do Democrats continue to win elections if so few Americans identify themselves as liberal? The answer may lie with moderates, which, as a voting bloc, are solidly Democratic,” the Gallup authors write. “If moderates begin voting with Republicans in the near or long-term future, there may indeed be a Republican revival on the national level.”

The word liberal, once often spoken with scorn, has been enjoying a slight resurgence nationally and a strong one among Democrats in recent years. Last year, 23 percent of Americans surveyed by Gallup identified as liberal, up from 19 and 20 percent in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Among Democrats, 43 percent identify as liberal now, up from 29 percent in 2000.

Gallup: Two-Thirds Say Fed. Gov’t ‘Too Big, Powerful’

Nearly two-thirds of Americans believe that the federal government is too big and powerful and are dissatisfied with how the government is working.

Gallup released its “Mood of the Nation” poll yesterday, conducted between January 5-8, finding that 66% of Americans are “unhappy with the size and power of the federal government.” This number has been the roughly the same for the last three years after jumping 10 percentage points between 2008 and 2011. In addition, 65% of Americans “are dissatisfied with the nation’s system of government and how well it works, the highest percentage in Gallup’s trend since 2001.”

The poll found that “Republicans and independents are largely responsible for the overall decrease in satisfaction with government effectiveness in recent years,” and “satisfaction among Republicans and independents began to wane during President George W. Bush’s final year in office,” which was also when the Tea Party movement started to form in response to the big-government programs of the Bush administration.

The poll also found that Republicans and independents have become even more dissatisfied with government since President Barack Obama got elected in 2008 while Democrats’ satisfaction has remained steady since 2004. Gallup found that “satisfaction among independents, meanwhile, has gone down 10 percentage points” since 2004.

The polling organization noted that this climate will make it difficult for President Barack Obama to push for more government programs during his final years in office.

Glimmer of Hope: A Group of AZ Republicans Voting to Censure John McCain

A group of Arizona Republicans is set to vote this coming weekend on whether to censure Senator John McCain (R-AZ). The Maricopa County GOP’s frustration with the Senator stems from his “long and terrible record of drafting, co-sponsoring and voting for legislation best associated with liberal Democrats.”

http://www.video.theblaze.com/shared/video/embed/embed.html?content_id=31293577&width=570&height=395&property=theblaze

“Yes, there is hope today,” Glenn said on radio this morning. “Try this out for size. [This is] going to be voted on by the Maricopa GOP leadership.”

Below is the full text of the censure resolution as published by IC Arizona:

Senator John McCain Censured by Arizona’s Republican Leadership

As leaders in the Republican Party, we are obligated to fully support our Party, platform, and its candidates. Only in times of great crisis or betrayal is it necessary to publicly censure our leaders. Today we are faced with both. For too long we have waited, hoping Senator McCain would return to our Party’s values on his own. That has not happened. So with sadness and humility we rise and declare:

Whereas Senator McCain has amassed a long and terrible record of drafting, co-sponsoring and voting for legislation best associated with liberal Democrats, such as Amnesty, funding for ObamaCare, the debt ceiling, assaults on the Constitution and 2nd amendment, and has continued to support liberal nominees;

Whereas this record has been disastrous and harmful to Arizona and the United States; and,

Whereas Senator McCain has campaigned as a conservative and made promises during his re-election campaigns, such as the needed and welcomed promise to secure our borders and finish the border fence, only to quickly flip-flop on those promises; and

Whereas McCain has abandoned our core values and has been eerily silent against Liberals, yet publicly reprimands Conservatives in his own Party, therefore

BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED that the Maricopa County Republican leadership censures Senator McCain for his continued disservice to our State and Nation, and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that until he consistently champions our Party’s Platform and values, we, the Republican leadership in Arizona will no longer support, campaign for or endorse John McCain as our U.S. Senator.

“Wouldn’t that be nice if that would pass,” Glenn asked. “That is what needs to be done, I think, on all of them.”

GAFFNEY: REPUBLICANS COMPLICIT IN IRANIAN NUKE DEVELOPMENT

obama_deal_with_it[H/T Breitbart] Sunday, Frank Gaffney, founder and president of the Center for Security Policy, appeared on ”Breitbart News Sunday” on SiriusXM Satellite Radio. He told Breitbart News Executive Chairman Stephen K. Bannon that “Iran is laughing itself silly” at the latest Iran nuclear agreement with the United States, which resulted in a reduction of economic sanctions on Iran. Quoting literary light Ben Jonson, who once said marriage is a “triumph of hope over experience,” Gaffney said the Iranian agreement is a “triumph of folly.”

Gaffney further asserted that Iran’s nuclear ambitions will remain undeterred by this agreement. He charged Obama with “national security fraud” for entering into the nuclear agreement. The agreement, according to Gaffney, helps Iran “bring in the Golden Age of Islam” and implicitly ignores Iranian totalitarianism.

Gaffney doesn’t believe this development is only Obama’s fault, but that Republicans are complicit in allowing Iran to evolve into an imminent nuclear power. Our Republican leadership, he says, is largely inexperienced with foreign policy and is more accustomed to focusing on domestic affairs. According to Gaffney, Republicans are “co-conspirators” and have a “discomfort” with opposing Obama’s Iranian policies. They have failed to promote a coherent and positive alternative. Surely, the President deserves the “lion’s share” of the blame, but the “Republicans’ inability to fight clears the way for Iranians to get the bomb.”

Ted Cruz: Republicans in Washington are ‘Scared’ to Repeal Obamacare, This is Not Good for the Home Team

What are the chances of repealing the nationally unpopular Obamacare health care law? According to Sen. Ted Cruz, the public support might be there, but Republicans in Washington these days lack the courage to actually do something about it:

“What I can tell you is there are a lot of Republicans in Washington who are scared. They’re scared of being beaten up politically,” Cruz (R-Texas) told Glenn Beck on TheBlaze radio show Monday. Simply put, if Americans want the law repealed, then Americans need to take action. “This is our last and best chance, I’m convinced, to stop it, which is why it all depends not on any politician, but on the American people rising up in a way we never seen before,” Cruz added. “That’s what’s got to happen.”
