But I see no tendency on the part of pubbies to look for a fight. Nor the stomach to fight if they found one.

We have not seen a fighting Repub since Reagan. Washington for them has turned into a coutry club, where the order of the day is personal empowerment, getting re-elected and earning as much as they can in contribution from lobbyists. On occasion we see one stand up and fight for something, but it always fades away. Men like Curt Weldon, Pence, Allen, etc. -- where is the beef?? We have watched the birth of the RINO, an ugly beast that is a byproduct of the short-term selfish rewards of liberalism.

Washington has lost sight of the founding principles of this country, and the committment that those great men had to their country -- the breed is gone.

There are many that your statement fits. And of course there are some very good folks in DC. There are also many patriots in our country but most of us are not in Washington and all of us have jobs. So we don't get a lot of attention. I think we will show up in November and shock the Dims. Your other points about RINOS and the country club are quite appropriate. Sigh, so much to do so few votes. Oh well, Carry On!! Let's give em hell. BTW the French at the UN just surrendered to the Lebanese...another Freeper said it ain't WWIII until the French surrender. I can't think of a weaker country to surrender too so we must be WWIII. ;)
