"So why do you bother to give your opinion here?"

I like giving my opinion here, and have been doing so for quite a long time. I believe it to be worthwhile if my words manage to cause others to think about where we are, really are, today, and where our political hacks intend to take us. Look around you. Wake up. It isn't all that difficult to figure out.

"Why don't you just take your gun to a cave with a beverage and wait for Armageddon?"

Now, now...

"All you are doing is discouraging anyone who still has any fight left."

I doubt it. The real fighters aren't discouraged, just angry and getting angrier every day.

"McCain can be maintained by public opinion."

No he can't, as the amnesty issue amply demonstrates. McCain is an arrogant, hot tempered jerk who has been on the wrong side of just about every issue of any importance to the conservative base. Which is why that base wants no part of him.

McCain is a moderate...he is on the wrong side of everyones issue. Maybe if you try helping your fellow conservatives to make their voices heard rather than telling us we are all doomed we can get something done rather than letting the commies just take over.

Ya thinK?

In all kindness, sir, your words have “managed to cause” wonder as to just whom has appointed you a chief high-priest of conservative ideology - and the answer is readily apparent: yourself.

There is sometimes, I'm sorry to state, a smothering and poisonous and feverish political correctness on the right that is the flip side of that homicidal version promulgated so vehemently by the left.

You say you “like giving (your) opinion here..to cause others to think about where we are, really are...and where our political hacks intend to take us...”

I have a lot of respect, sir, for certain “political hacks” because they have had the character and courage and discipline to publicly put their lives actively on the line in a democracy (and oftentimes in the U. S. military) to stand up for something - rather than being permanently sited in front of a two-dimensional video screen and mewing about how terrible things are.

It isn't all that difficult to be a keyboard warrior. If we want to grasp some reality, we could do worse than run for dog catcher.
