If Collin Powell and John McCain represent the Republican party platform, I am voting Libertarian. I WON’T vote for a McCain retread, or for another RINO. I did it before as an ANTI-OBAMA vote, but I will vote my principles first 2010!!
Hey Hootie.....the friggin Repukes MOVED To the center and had your gumba McQueeg as the leftist centrist leader.
and WTF did you do???
You backed the Marxist BROTHER!
EF U, You POS PUKE.
What is the center? Homosexual marriage, abortion on demand, scientism (politicized science) and big government?
That is not the center.
In America, we are different. Our country was founded on individual liberty, not collective security or coercion. That we've lost our way is evidence that we need to return to the Golden Mean - A Constitutional Republic.
Colin and friends need to come back to the center. We need to hold true to our founding principles. America should not look to the world, but to our Constitution and Bill of Rights as originally intended.
The rest of the world remained, in large part on the statist path. Liberty was an accident or afterthought. That is the history of the rest of the world.
For America, individual liberty was the founding principle.

I couldn’t tell who you were attacking - Powell or Morris. If you’re addressing Morris, why attack him when he finally seems to be coming to his senses?
It seems to have dawned even on Morris and McGann that this administration is way beyond anything we have ever seen in terms of being radical left-wing and being determined to enforce their policies on us all - which will mean the destruction of our country. I think they’re absolutely right that we have to reaffirm our principles and be there to pick up the pieces in 2012 - my only question is whether this will even be possible after 4 years of Marxism. Heck, it may be too late even by 2010.
Morris is completely right, IMO.
There has to be a CLEAR line drawn between the sides. Because there are more of us than them.
The message has to be:
Without national security, we have NO economic security. We will be relentless, uncompromising, and WE MEAN BUSINESS. We don’t care who’s feelings are hurt.
“We’re willing to help the helpless, not the clueless” (to quote Dennis Miller) In other words, a safety net, not a hammock.
Fiscal responsibility is not optional. There is no sense in scrimping and saving for our children while standing on our kitchen floor, unless we’re willing to do it on the Congressional floor.
We love immigrants. And we love them enough to want to get through and process the hundreds of thousands backlogged in our system BEFORE we take on any more. Once we finish that, then we’ll talk about amnesty. To do anything else is patently immoral.
We are a party of life and understand that some disagree. However the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court has ruled that Roe v. Wade is the law of the land as long as he’s on the court.
We believe marriage is a man and a woman. But we are also economic creatures. We do recognize that gay couples are economically punished for their status. One thing Republicans agree with is economic fairness. We’re ready for the dialogue. Should the term “marriage” be reserved for religions unions, to not offend our churches and synagogues, but consider the joining of two people together for a life of economic parity with others, if that is their wish? We don’t know the right answer, but we are ready for the dialogue.
School choice MUST exist. Period. The arguments of “It’s wrong to only save a few, when there are so many others” holds no water, with us. That would be like suggesting that since we can’t cure ALL cancer patients now, that we should treat NO cancer patients, ever.
That can be our winning platform.
*rant off, btw*
Hey Colon (yes, colon) - who was McLame? Chopped liver?
You didn’t back him, did you?
You showed you’re true colors on that one.
Even Dick Morris is coming to his senses? Maybe there is hope.
powell and the blowfish
For a toe-sucker, he’s starting to make sense.
We want our country back...Now!
This advice should be taken both figuratively and literally.
truth is we don’t need to educate them, we just need them mad as hell at obama.....like they were at Bush and the pubbies........that’s how we got obama, and it’s how we will get rid of him.
Rollback in 2010 !
I hear you and will be doing the same. If Progressiveism is the only thing the Republicans and DemoRats offer I will be voting (along with family and friends) for the third party candidate that is closest to the principals of the constitution.
