Living in Massachusetts means that I do not have the luxury of not voting for a Republican for just about anything.

I have lose-lose before me every time that I go to vote.

I think that it is time to hold our noses, vote out the bastards, let the chips fall where they may, and immediately after commence with the clean up. It may sting for a bit, but things can get better if we all agree to rid ourselves of the real problem first.

The current crop of skunks does us all no good service, and they need to be seriously rebuked.

I have been hearing radio ads against congressman Mahoney. Out of curiosity I checked and he won the disgraced emailer’s seat. He links to a document of 20 targets. So while those here are amusing themself with sophomoric self-indulgence, the Republican party is on the make.

I really understand your anger and frustration. However I’m truly afraid you will find out the difference between Republicans (even RINOs) and a Hillary Socialist administration.

True conservatives are fed up with being dissed by elitist Republicans,

I'd rather be dissed by elitist Republicans than by Hildabeast/Hussein Obama.

>If we had a Republican president instead of an elitist snob who thinks conservatives are racist, sexist, ignorant hicks, we wouldn’t have to worry ???

There's a disconnect
among the right-wing fringe groups.
They don't realize

they are the fringe and
instead of being happy
with Republicans

who don't call them nuts,
they want Republicans who
implement their views!

Even Bill Clinton
didn't give a damn about
the left-wing fringe groups

(in practical ways)
once they put him in office.
And the left-wing nuts

were happy simply
to get lip service from 'Rats.
Republicans won't

be a solid bloc
until somebody forceful
beats down right-wing nuts.

How many sliced, diced and hamburgerized babies would you regard as enough? Or is it that 50+ million already are not enough and no number ever will be? You don’t mind being Republican so long as the (Demonratic policy of maxiumum) babykilling rolls on unimpeded? Help us understand your desired policy here.

Honestly, I don’t see how it can get much worse. Taxes are going up, Amnesty is here, Repubs are demanding a ‘pullout’ date in Iraq, ‘hate crime/anti-free speech’ is soon to the law which will allow police to arrest Christians who speak out against homosexuality.

Now it’s not a matter of “not getting anything of value,” it’s a matter of getting nutzoid, Pelosi-fied legislation with enough nuts to pass it.

Oh! We did that in 2006 and now have no majority in the House to stop this insane immigration bill.

Are you referring to the Republican crafted and supported Insane immigration bill? You know, the one the Republican President backs and lectures his base about complaining about it? Is it the same insane immigration bill a Republican congressman calls conservatives bigots for not getting on the bandwagon?

Is that the Republican majority who is going to stop this insane bill?

I don't think so.

Let me say this-no Republicans will be elected without the support of conservatives ie right wing etc. I say, we have been treated disrespectfully in the Republican party by people such as yourself so fine, I’m out of here. I am now an independent. Have a nice election. Hope you woo many of those swing voters.

Big tent republicans are what got us into the mess we’re in right now.

No thanks, if the Republican Party endorses liberalism in any shape or form, it will lose me and I dare say, a great many other conservatives and will be the minority party for a long long time.

Republicans are no more principled than our Democrats.

I'll ask Justice Alito and Chief Justice Roberts about that and get back to you.

Parties are not all the same, and elections have consequences.

I agree with you...I have voted for the lesser of two evils for too long.

Do you really think Pres. Bush could get through anymore conservative justices? I am sorry; I have never missed an election in 30 years, but now I just don’t see the point.

brownsfan: Dangus and I have been known to disagree as often as not. I disagree with him on the immigration but it does not matter since that issue is over and the immigration won. You are forcing me to ally with Dangus.

If conservatives focus on gun rights, right to innocent life, marriage being one man and one woman, cutting the welfare state with an eye toward eliminating most of it, stopping voter fraud, building grassroots issues groups and umbrella groups, and removing layers of elitist dimwits from leadership of the GOP, we shall handle Her Heinous IF she gets as far as the Demonrat nomination.

We do need a long term plan to recreate the conservative cadres that nominated and elected Ronaldus Maximus. Like the Yankees (as posited by Dangus), we can rebuild while being normally dominant.

Always bear in mind the old wisdom that the perfect is the enemy of the good. It was a major guideline of Ronaldus Maximus.

Perdogg: You're looking at this realistically. We have to get the best we can. We surrendered to the RATS last election and see what we got. We now have a larger hole from which me must try to dig ourselves.

The "teach-them-a-lesson" strategy does not work.

We have to fight it out in the primaries and then stick together to defeat the RATS. They're even worse than these RINOs.

People who find Arlen Specter, Olympia Snowe, and Richard Lugar unacceptable have never controlled the Republican Party, and they never will.

You cannot reclaim what you never had.

The only way to save the Republican Party, if it can be saved, is to purge the RINO office holders.

OK. Spell it out just exactly how this is going to work. Give us your plan. Speak in specifics--not generalities.
