RINOs Who Need to Go
Vanity

Posted on 05/09/2012 7:08:21 AM PDT by Freestate316

Now that Indiana RINO Richard Lugar will be vacating his Senate office, what other Senate RINOs would we most love to see follow him? I nominate John McCain.

Casey from PA BUT not sure that will happen since the cities are all BLUE but the rest of the state is RED! There is just no way to overtake the population of the cities!

True, but we will always detest Dems, and would love to see all of them go. Democrats are out in the open, and are more lockstep and monolithic than Republicans. This was put on display with the passage of Obamacare. I accept the fact that Democrats have beliefs and values that are diametrically opposed to mine. That’s why I would die before I’d vote for one. RINOs, however, often masquerade as conservatives to get elected, than once in office are anything but. They oppose and undermine conservative values and hinder the advancement of conservative policies. That is why they must be purged from the GOP.

That's right.

McCain did choose Palin, but he never seemed comfortable with the choice.

He almost immediately, cast her to the wolves.

It was a vote of ‘no confidence’ from him that was promptly parlayed into a vote of ‘no confidence' from the public. He can blame himself for his failure because he was only grudging and half hearted in his support for his OWN choice!!

Anyone who has led the formation of a police state where the Homeland inSecurity has turned against conservatives and vets naming them a domestic terrorist threat - McLame, GOP leadership and is in constant but unprofessional freak out mode about terrorism.

Anyone who has stood up on their hind legs and denounced the Tea Party. McLame and GOPe leadership in the Senate and House.

Anyone who gave Rand Paul a hard time for standing up to the TSA sexual molestion crew.

Anyone who is so entrenched in political correctness that they see Islam as our harmless master and see themselves as “citizens of the world” and US (especially the military)as the property of the UN.

Those involved in refusing to answer the demand of the base to check Obama’s citizenship background in light of constitutional qualification requirements.

Ya know...right after McCains loss for pres the voters of AZ had a chance to retire him from the senate....and didnt. Its unclear what it would take to remove him b/c the voters seem happy w/ his performance. I suspect he’ll be around for some time.

I have military experience also, but would make a lousy senator for Arizona... but I would be a better Senator FROM anywhere FOR America than McCain has been.

I’d never get elected, though. I say what I think, too much!

I have a PC (personal computer)
I am PC (proudly conservative, passionately Christian)
I am NOT a lawyer...

Hey, VOTE for ME! (any Dog Catcher positions on the next ballot?)

A rino is a rino; a dem is a dem.
No one is going to agree with me all the time.
And I don’t think I would like you making up my list.
Would you like me doing yours?

Senator Orrin Hatch from Utah. He's another sanctimonious RINO. The folks in Utah need to show him the unemployment line in the June primary.

You can be damn sure that the 2014 class of republican senators will be voting very conservative for the next couple of years.

And the existing conservative senators should keep the pressure on by denying unanimous consents so they can’t hide behind them and keep their conservative ratings artificially high.

Graham and Alexander and Thune need to smarten up or be gone. The same with Isaakson, Cochrane and Wicker. McConnell’s up in 2014 too. He should get his hat handed to him.

If you didn’t already elect an alternate in the Primary, it’s a little late now.

Get behind Crus in TX.

Gotta keep Mourdock funded for the General Election.

There’s 23 Senate Dems up for replacement this year.

Let’s get off of our butts and do something positive!

Peeing on fellow FReeper’s legs doesn’t count.

A RINO is a Democrat. They infiltrate or use the GOP in order to stymie Conservatism and to advance the leftist agenda. There is no such element of DINOs, since the Democrats would never allow their advancement as the Republicans do. Look at how far the execrable Socialist Slick Willard has been allowed to get. Can you imagine a Conservative getting the Democrat nomination for President ? That hasn’t happened since 1924.

Martinez, Voinovich, Bond and Gregg are already gone, replaced by more conservative members.

Snowe and Lugar are out, at least one to be replaced by a real conservative.

Kyl is out and Hatch may be. We’re making good progress!

Some should have been ‘kicked upstairs’. Lugar would have been a decent sec of state, Gramnesty a decent atty general, and Hatch a decent supreme ct nominee during Reagans term(after Bork). No guarantee how they would have performed but conformation hearings would be easier with senate collegues.

We had a shot at getting rid of McCain in 2010, but the Establishment (including Romney and Jan Brewer) and Palin rallied around him over JD Hayworth. A little like closing the barn door after the horse’s a$$ escaped.

J.D. Haworth tried but failed to succeed.

Hayworth was a fundamentally flawed candidate. When you run a good candidate like Mourdock or Rubio you can win.

I don’t have a problem with that either, Reid, Pelosi, Hoyer and the entire CBC except Adam West are at the top of that list.
