Some sensitive democrat supporters got my previous post pulled and I admit I went overboard but I am just so angry at how ridiculous some people get.
The whole Idea that because the republicans haven't done everything you want you want them out and want the democrats in TO SEND A MESSAGE.
The only message it sends is you want Bush impeached or at least a long costly trial that will weaken the US in the world and embolden the terrorists.
You want a much better chance at much higher taxes.
You want a very good chance we cut and run from Iraq and Afghanistan.
Tell me these things won't happen if the dems take over and since when do conservatives want cut and run and higher taxes?
And why do you want the terrorists emboldened by a weakened Bush?
Yes he hasn't been perfect but the alternative is much worse.
The Republican congress under Bush has been both good and bad for conservatives.
But the dems would make it 100 percent bad.
I agree on Bush's immigration bill. But it's much better than anything the dems want and if the dems win that's what will happen.
And another point if a vacancy happens in the SC right now at worst we'd get a middle of the road person if the dems win they'd make the most liberal justice look like Rush in comparison.
Vote republican even if you have to hold your nose and work at getting better candidates in 08.
If you truly believe the dem you'd vote for is better you're probably misled at best but vote for him/her.
But just to send a message don't do it.
It took the dems 12 years to take control if they do in 06. Do you want to wait that long to take control back?
I've been disappointed in Bush myself. But when I think of the alternative I get nightmares literally.
The dems will go for impeachment, higher taxes, cut and run and no immigration laws. They may not get them but its certainly much more likely to happen.
A vote against the republicans either for a dem or in default by not voting period is a vote against anything happening good for the conservative movement.
Maybe I'm different because I'm not 100 percent conservative. Some of my views lean a bit liberal (the biggest is while I'm anti gay marriage I am pro civil unions. By the way many gays agree with me on that including my gay republican cousin). But I'd rather vote for a rep willing to make some compromises than any democrat.
We're never going to get eveyrthing we want. But we're going to get what we have taken away and definitely not anything more with a democrat congress.
And believe me I will need a barf bag and nose clips to vote for Judy Barr Topinka in November. I think I should have an ambulance at the ready in case.
This is the first governor or presidential race I haven't put time into since I was 8 years old. I even go back to before I was able to vote to Ford in 1976 helping stuff envelopes at 8 years old.
Heck I've even voted for a democrat or too WHEN HE WAS THE BETTER CANDIDATE! Not to send a message but because he was the better candidate.
And for those who think I'm a DU in disguise. Read my post history.
Or why the heck do you think I'm ashamed to be from Park Ridge? Dave Butts the Washington Redskins star? No her name rhymes with Sillary Flinton.
Why isn't this in Breaking News?
And for those calling me male. It's a big shock to my husband and if I am I should be in the news as I have 3 kids.
You call the Mods this?
Yep. Should be in breaking news and IN ALL CAPS!
Some "sensitive Democrat supporters" got your previous VANITY pulled, on Free Republic? You seem a bit vague on procedure here.
and a democrat is going to do better.
Work for change in 08 and a better candidate. Heck maybe run yourself.
My husband has been approached about running. He is thinking about it for 08.
My main point is a RINO is better than a dem any day.
Not off to a very good start on that rewrite....
Extended News, certainly, but I'm not sure about Breaking News. Definitely close, though.
The only rational thing to do is throw every RINO incumbent out during the primaries, even if you're not sure who your replacing them with.
For all 50 states.
what did Ronald McDonald ever do to you?
Think of us poor conservatives in Illinois. Blow Dry Rod as gov, Jesus Obama and Turban Durban as our senators, Reid to the north, Daley in charge of our biggest city.
And to make it worse. You think you have enough of Jesse? Multiply it by 2138210983198298312083092838209139802193829103821803801283891203821083021832013821831830183812382138292839 and you see what we have here. And his son to boot!
You mean there's a procedure here? Gasp.
Labeling it as a 'vanity' might help initiate a discussion.
I am not sure it is worth my time to go to the polls.
I'm on the case.
