Glad you’re staying on topic. These things drift so easily.
I agree with the other millions of Republicans and conservatives that this guy was foisted upon us, and that the Republican party is literally in a condition of Treason to its rank and file members for anointing him as our representative.
McCain is no such thing. The people know it, and I think the Republican party leadership knows it too, but they just don’t give a damn about what matters to us ordinary Americans. It’s simply some sort of corporate power game to them. They couldn’t care less whether this man’s policies align with the needs, wants, and the will of most Republican voters.
I think my grand daddy was the first person I ever heard utter the phrase, “throw the bums out”, but now’s the time, if there ever was one.
I can’t help thinking of how the original colonists must have felt at the moment in which they had finally had enough, and were more willing to stand up against the world’s greatest superpower to tell them so, than to suffer another day under its tyranny.
Personally, I’d like to see a national movement to fire the majority of our so-called Republican representatives in congress. Fire the leadership of the party while we’re at it too, just to make sure we root out all the rot.
The level of angst and anger on our side has been growing for years. I see it daily on this board and others, and read it in the articles posted here.
We Americans who still understand the basic concepts of Americanism have been growing more restless over the worsening conditions of our country by the year. Eventually something’s got to give. We’ll either reach a boiling point where we finally stand shoulder to shoulder against the treason, or we will allow the greatest nation in all the world’s history to pass into legend.
We don’t need to just throw out the bums. We need th dynamite the machinery that let’s them accomplish such feats of treason without consequence. I encourage you and others to start considering ways to remove republican party politics from the hands of the “apparatchiks” who make sure every old warhorse gets his chance regardless of the consequences for the electorate. The internet is the perfect way to democratize such an institution.
