Why I am not voting Republican this fall [because I'm a retread zotted troll]
SmallGovTimes.com ^ | 09/23/2006 | William Calhoun

A friend of mine recently was surprised when I told him that I am not voting Republican this fall. "You are one of the most conservative people I know," he said.

"Exactly," I said, "and that is precisely why I am not voting Republican." For me, illegal immigration has been the final straw. And the GOP's recent decision to pull funding from Randy Graf's campaign shows the writing on the wall: CONSERVATIVES, YOU ARE NOT WELCOME IN THE GOP. Of course, the GOP will take conservatives' votes and money, but if a real conservative runs for office, he almost certainly will be shunned.

The GOP historically has been quite liberal. And now, those at the helm are steering it towards its liberal roots. While President Bush and Senator McCain are seeing who can run farther to the left of Ted Kennedy on the issue of immigration, our country is under invasion. Already 20 million illegals have invaded our country, and our president (other than lip service) has done nothing about it. In fact, he exudes a long track record of encouraging the illegal invasion of our country.

In the 1950s, when our country was under invasion, President Eisenhower (via "Operation Wetback") responded with troops, and deported over 1 million illegals in less than a year. Yet President Bush says he is unable. Rather, he is unwilling. If Bush had engaged in this pandering to illegals in the 1950s, he would have been impeached and tried for treason.

In fact, the treason lobby seems to have overtaken the GOP. By 1950s standards, President Bush, Vice-President Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, and Senators McCain, Specter, Brownback, DeWine, and Graham are all guilty of treason. Behind the scenes, they have supported the unconstitutional NAFTA Superhighway, and at every turn have undermined American sovereignty. They have betrayed the Constitution and hard-working Americans so that they can make a fast buck from big business and attempt (unsuccessfully) to court illegal aliens for future political support.

And the GOP rewards such treason. Although Senator DeWine has been ranked by Human Events as one of the ten worst border-security politicians in the country, the GOP still funds him. And in the process, they ceased to fund Randy Graf, a true patriot who actually wants to defend America from this invasion. They take money from the conservative and give it to the liberal. This is the modus operandi of the GOP.

If I am ever able to vote for a true conservative in the GOP (e.g. John Duncan, Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul, or Pat Buchanan) then I shall. Otherwise, I am voting Constitution Party (the real conservative party) or not voting at all.

There are many words for this type of mindset.

Irresponsibility. Immaturity. Mental masturbation. Perfectionism. Selfishness. Unfocused anger. Blindness.
Willingness, frankly, to sell out our national security.
And biting the hand that feeds you, aka DISLOYALTY -- to the Republican party, the conservative movement, and America.

"It is NOT time to abandon the GOP. It is time to TAKE BACK THE REPUBLICAN PARTY from the 'moderates' and the spineless and the treacherous, whomever they may be! But not at the expense of losing the power we have. Patience. Perseverance. Determined grassroots work. Effective boycotts.'

Agreed. However, it is also not time to have trolls post duplicate articles.

Vote for conservative Republicans.

Don't vote for Democraps or RINOs - EVER!!

The Republican Party, the Party of Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan is the last best hope for America.

By not fighting to keep it conservative, we will hand it over to the RINOs and it will become a mirror of the Demcrats.

The future will be shown in 2006 and 2008.

Only if conservative Republicans are voted IN, and RINOs are voted OUT, and a conservative is chosen as nominee in 2008, will the Republican Party have any future.

There is no reason or purpose in having two political parties which espouse the same ideas.

Such a cutting edge acolite of politics. I hate to even point out that "Bush" isn't running for anything.

I'm not happy with the illegal immigration problem either, but I will vote for a bad republican every time over any democrat, even a good one. Every dem vote brings their party as a whole closer to getting a majority and that I don't want.

"Maybe it will teach Republicans."

Compromising our national security and crippling the Bush administration are a high price to pay for an EXTREMELY speculative benefit.

Maybe it WON'T teach Republicans. Did that ever occur to you?

Then don't vote and don't utter a freakin word for the next two years when Democrats impeach Bush and screw up the war.

I couldn't care less what another of these "Conservatives for a Democrat Majority" think. Bunch of whiney babies who can't figure out how to get real conservatives elected, so they just bitch.

Maybe it will teach Republicans not to take their voters for granted.

What good will it do to teach a Republican a lesson if he's out of office and can't do anything? Do you think the commie who takes his place will give your view the time of day?

We have to work with what we have, not what we wish we had. When I look at myself in the mirror, I see a mess. God bless this mess!

The only way I see you can throw your vote away is if you don't vote at all or you have to hold your nose while casting your ballot.

Agreed. The weak Republicans need company to bolster their courage not a minority standing to give them reason to check the polls on every issue.

Cover of this week's Navy Times.

Basing your political opinions on magazine cover lines--now THERE's a smart one!

Bush has poured more money to the military and veterans than just about anyone, ever. To try to deny that is lunacy. But you have your fun, and tell the folks at DNC I said hi.
