"A nation that values its privileges over its principles will soon lose both"
Dwight D. Eisenhower, inaugural address, 1953
If you cannot stand upon principle, then you can hardly expect others to do it for you. And if you abandon principle for the sake of convenience or 'practiciality,' then you can't complain about the results. Think of the message that you're sending.
What the Republican Party needs is a good, strong high-pressure enema to remove the 'progressive' RINO stools with which it seems to be impacted. Unfortunately, nothing short of a civil war will do the trick at this stage of the game.
Well, how do I respond to eloquence like the above? I'm afraid you're just going to have to get used to so-called RINO's which I suspect is lable that you just slap on willy-nilly to every Republican who dares disagree with you.
