There is a good argument to be made that the only time the GOP acts a little conservative is when they are a minority and the Pres. is a Dem.
The GOP showed their true colors with Pres. Bush.
I don't have the answer, but I know simply voting for the two main parties is not the solution.
Every election is the last most crucial one. 'We will change' after this election. We will change the party!. hah! Every election is the same.

Besides, running for pres is easy.
All you gots to do is establish True Conservative bona fides, then convince 70 million people that you are in fact a True Conservative, and the ring is yours.
See, simple enough.
After all, how hard can it be to round up 70 million like minded people, who agree, just like you, on everything?

Romney's first Executive Order should be to rescind all EOs. He should do this at the podium, before, his inaugural address.

Can we even IMAGINE what Congress would do if a Republican, Conservative President would use Executive Orders to undo the Nanny-State?
I still believe a sooner-rather-than-later Military Coup D'Etat/Do-Over is necessary to get back to the U.S. Constitution, along with sh$t-canning all the Liberal Judges planted throughout the country now.

The coming chaos from the Obama-Soertoro playbook...Who is Barack Hussein Obama II, a/k/a Barry Soetoro? To fully understand what is taking place today, and more importantly, what is being planned for tomorrow, we must identify the actors involved in fomenting chaos. Lets first consider the meteoric rise of the virtually unknown community organizer Barack Hussein Obama II, a/k/a Barry Soetoro.
...we have the Obama-Soetoro legend, manufactured by
whom? And why?

Just think how much worse it would be under Romney.
No Romney, no way.

ABSOLUTELY. It would be 100x worse.

We are at the end of the democratic phase, and the beginning of tyranny.
In a generation or so, the Senate and House will just be a formality that old rich guys fight to join for the cool factor.

Obama should have also ran in 00 and 04, would have saved us the 8 years of grief under bush hitler.
Can’t wait until presidential term limits is abolished, for the good of the country, you see.
Anything to keep that two bit mormon skank and her husband out of the oval office.

The problem is there are more of them (liberals) than there are conservatives, ... Conservatives have the edge in the House. But when ANY LEGISLATION is passed and sent it is sent to the Senate; Reed will not bring it before the committee. Thus no vote is taken. Grid LOCK.
Neither one can force the other to act, so it is a Mexican stand off.
No one is really willing to attack Obama’s policies or actions.
Cause they know there is no way to get enough votes for it to cause effective actions.!!!!!!
STYME!!!!!

Agree with all you say except “deserves nothing more than a trial at the International Criminal Court iof the Hague.”
Don’t want to IMO legitimize the ICC.

BTW, your Dictatorness, just how long has it been since you applied for US Citizenship status? I’m sure that question was on your exam.
