Five Annoying Types Of Republicans

Any Republicans who think we haven’t compromised enough over the past few decades please stand up. ...Leave now. Those who think it is time for Democrats to compromise move up to the front.

[CodeToad]

Seems like a list to try to get people to vote for the extreme left-wing liberal Romney the Republican party has put up.

Either a person is a Purist and holds onto their convictions or else they are a Sellout and have compromised their convictions.

Reagan was not a southerner and Rush Limbaugh has fought long and hard for the conservative cause..I live in fly over country and thank God for it.

Great article! Thanks for posting Kaslin.

Well, that didn’t take long.

I wouldn’t call myself a purist. No one’s ever going to be perfect. I just want a candidate who isn’t an abortion-enabling, Planned Parenthood-donating, sodomite-loving, homosexual adoption-pushing, tax-raising, global warming-believing, gun-banning, amnesty-pushing, socialist health care-establishing LIBERAL.

The so-called ‘purist’ here NEVER claim to stay home and not vote, esp. NEVER tell others to stay home and not vote.

There are certainly FReepers who quite vociferously aver that they will vote for neither Obama nor Romney.

[central_va]

That means you agree that it is a very good thing that President Lincoln kept the South in the Union, right?

NO. I wish every state that made war on the South was a communist run state and the inhabitants lived in collective misery-especially you. At the same time the South was an independent republic like the founders envisioned, one that Lee and Davis tried to preserve from the Illinois Butcher ™ and his blood thirsty minions.

[Servant of the Cross]

Hehehe. A classic. You didn't disappoint! [Lee, Davis, IL Butcher TM, blood thirsty minions ...] you covered it!

As pointed out elsewhere, President Reagan was not from the South, but Carter, Clinton and Huckster are. Hmmm.

[central_va]

You don't want me to list the current crop of Northern communist? Name ONE conservative member of congress from New England. Yes the South has had it s share of losers but deny that the PEOPLE of the South are the only thing holding this republic together. Deny that and look like a complete idiot. Go ahead, Lets here how the modern heroic Yankee is saving the republic from the hicks in fly over country.

How proud you must be.

“The so-called ‘purist’ here NEVER claim to stay home and not vote, esp. NEVER tell others to stay home and not vote.

Those “purists” are charter members of the re-elect Obama committee.

Jeez,take a chill pill dude...

Getting on here and making enemies of fellow conservatives by calling them idiots if they don’t agree with you about how utterly wonderful southerners are— it just seems counterproductive, you know?

FYI, the Civil War is over, let’s move on. Conservatives in Montana may take issue with your characterizations, we Illinoisans would be a red State were it not for Cook County, you really need to keep your broad brush to yourself.

[central_va]

A conservative in New England and New York is about as worthless as tits on a mule. All they do is gum the works in the primaries and are no help otherwise. Mule Tit Republican’s opinions are as worthless as the communist states they inhabit. I feel sorry for them.

[PT57A]

Well, considering that the bastion of conservatism known as Virginia only managed to allow Romney and Paul on the Presidential primary ballot, you may want to tone down your hypocritical rhetoric.

Your own State has it’s own head buried in a steaming cow pie but somehow you’re able to muster up enough monkey crap to throw at somebody else.

#2 smells.

[gusty]

So I see you would have preferred to be a neo-colonial plantation for Britian and France. Real history shows that Jefferson Davis couldn’t win the war, but Napoleon III and Disraeli would have.

[sarge83]

I would rather be in the #2 than the others. 1,3,4 and 5’s are not worth a pitcher of warm goat snot.

Show me a republican that can negotiate a 65-80% to our advantage a compromise and I’ll consider the #5 variety.

[Cyber Liberty]

6) People who use All-Caps to shout.

[csmusaret]

You are.

Of course the fact that the US is effectively operating as a Socialist dictatorship, and the unconstitutional laws and government employees that are operating it as such were put in place by the other four groups of Annoying "Republicans", is lost on the author.

People do tend to forget that before there was Barrack Hussein Obama, there was George W. Bush, who gave us the largest, most expensive, most intrusive federal government until Obama came along. And Bush did it with the support of most Republicans in Congress and many voters.
