John Hawkins at Right Wing News has 10 Pieces of Advice for Republicans. Good reading, kids. Here's just a few:

2) America Should Always Come First: Whether we're talking about international treaties, foreign policy, or even illegal immigration, Republicans should NEVER put the interests of foreigners above those of their own countrymen. Americans should always come first.

3) Remember That There Is No Such Thing As Free Money: The money Washington spends doesn't come out of a Golden Goose or fall from the sky. To the contrary, it comes right out of the pockets of the American people and they will miss it dearly. It's money that people could otherwise spend on retirement, grocery bills, medicine or their kid's college education. That's why the government should be restrained in their spending habits, keep taxes low, and avoid running up a debt. The government isn't spending "free" money, it's spending money that people worked hard for and earned, and a lot of Republicans seem to have lost sight of that.

4) Compromise, But Don't Capitulate: Compromise is a necessity in politics, but Republicans shouldn't engage in compromises that don't significantly advance the conservative agenda. It's not about "getting things done," it's about "getting things done that are good for the country." And if the price of getting a bill passed is giving liberals almost everything they want, then that price is too high to pay.

The rest are just as good.
