GFY.

You have no idea what I stand for, you're just doing the normal knee jerk response of an idiot.

I presume you're one of the purists who now own this current president, if not I apologize. If so, kindly GFY and enjoy this president cause he's all yours.

The only difference between you and me, is that in the end you actually believed the Axelrodian nonsense that the two candidates were the same, you believed that a RINO squish was the same as a full blown Marxist destroyer.

Congrats, you got what you voted for, the only possible outcome of what you did happened.

Own up to it, he's all yours. And no, it's not debunked, it's a fact, you and your ilk gave him to us, for the dumbest ass reasons I've ever read. Like I say....congrats.....enjoy the weekly barrage from the destroyer.

I held my nose and voted for a RINO for the very last time with Romney. The difference, sparky, is that I'm not making excuses for that miserable sack of liberal crap and attacking Conservatives like you are.

Hope you like the taste of kissing Christie's lard ass as much as the last loser you insisted we vote for.

And as for the kenyan, he's all yours for floating a RINO. Enjoy it. It's the bed you made.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

The people who stayed home aren't conservatives, they play them on forums such as FR, and I have no problem attacking them for being idiots, cause they were.

Anyone who claims I floated a RINO or wanted Romney as the candidate is a fool, knows nothing, and has the intellect of a cow pile.

I'm telling you right now I will not vote for Christie or Jeb or any other RINO in 2016 even if the Chinese cloned Mao 35 years ago and secretly financed his education at Harvard and bought his dem nomination.

I am done with the GOPe. If the establishment quislings think that by trolling Conservative sites and laboring so mightily to rail against Conservatives will convince any of them to vote for the next "It's my turn" loser, you can forget it.

GFY-Y.

I have never voted for a dem in my life. Right now there is no way I would pull the lever for these beltway GOP losers.

It’s their utter refusal to do any heavy lifting in opposing the kenyan that is my personal last straw.

They just won’t fight for the future of the country if that interferes with getting their fingers in the spending pie. They clearly prefer getting crumbs being the minority in lieu of taking on the Democrat Media Complex.

The only difference between you and colonelflagg is that he HAS principles and you don’t.

I think he means Time to Grow a Pair but I could be wrong since he lives among the neutered.

Kaslin:

When Romney applied tons of corrupt Wall Street elitist $$$$$ to BUY the GOP nomination, it was clear that conservatives and Americans had lost the 2012 election. If you voted for that elitist POS Romney and he refused to campaign and he refused to fight Obozo and he believed in Obozo's policies and had enacted them in Taxachusetts and he refused to call out Obozo on his inaction on the anal rape and murder of our ambassador to Libya and....and....and...., then you may be happy with the "arrogant POS occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue" since you voted for the GOP-E version of the same. I didn't and I never shall vote for anything GOP-E candidate again.

I voted for Nixon twice. I even voted for that despicable excrement Gerald Ford. I gladly voted twice for Ronaldus Maximus. I held my nose and voted for the elitist monarch wannabe Bush the Elder of New World Order fame. I voted for Dole. I voted somewhat willingly for Bush the Younger. I even voted for McCain because of Palin. That's it. I am done with the GOP-E. If the whores of the GOP-E want my vote from now on, by damn, they are going to earn it by nominating someone WORTH VOTING FOR.

I do not want to hear and I shall refuse to be influenced by constant elitist whining that the election of this or that Demonrat will cause the Earth to stop spinning on its axis or will result in a Supreme Soviet in place of a Supreme Court (on social issues, how would I know the difference?). I do not want to hear nor shall I be influenced by phony GOP-E claims that filling the federal bench with Republican elitist faggots and Republican elitist babykillers and Republican elitist nether ends of the digestive system is somehow superior to what essentially Marxist Demonrats would load the bench with.

I do not choose to be governed by that weepy drunken golfer Boehner, nor the sinister Cantor nor the authoritarian Kevin McCarthy nor the brainless accommodationist windtunnel McConnell nor by a phony like John Cornyn who betrayed Republicans everywhere by giving Lisa Murkowski the green light to defeat the duly nominated GOP candidate who defeated her slimy, pro-abort, pro-homosexual Moderateness in a GOP primary.

I do not choose to be governed by other GOP elitist left trash and footstools like LAMAR!!! Alexander, Bob Corker, Thad Cochran, Nancyboy Kirk, Johnny Isakson, Saxby Chambliss, Lindsey Graham, John McCain, Rob Portman, Lisa Murkowski and anyone else like them. They are a fifth column for the Demonrats. When Lugar was replaced by Demonrat Donnelly, it was progress because we are now ONE election from electing a worthy senator to that seat. On issues that count Donnelly won't be much worse than Lugar and Indiana owes a LOT more to America than either of them.

Ordinarily, I agree with most of your posts. Apparently, I have misjudged you---at least if you think Mittler was worth electing and if you think the GOP would have survived his election as a party in any way worthy of support. Mittler carries a portable mattress, a portable red light and a sack of quarters to make change like the $$$$ crowd who paid for his nomination.

Once Mittler's nomination was purchased, we had no major party candidate as a nominee worth electing. Do a LOT better next time and maybe, just maybe, a lot of members of the GOP base will vote GOP again but not otherwise.

Do you want PERMANANT Demonratic rule or not??? That will depend on the GOP-E getting the hell out of the way and allowing the party to live up to its propaganda. Meanwhile, those of us who are pissed off will continue to vote in GOP primaries for the best candidates offered there, picking off those like Charlie Crist, David Dewhurst, Richard Lugar, Robert Bennett, and any other elitist $$$ pigs aeeking to continue the GOP as the party of the trust funder social revolutionaries and spineless quislings.

Rule or ruin! If the GOP will not be purged, then it must be destroyed and replaced. Like its Federalist and Whig and Know Nothing predecessors, the GOP has probably run its course. A lot of people around here like to pay exaggerated lip service to the Founding Fathers. How many will emulate them and fight a good revolution against the usual trash who seize control of overly matured and all too complacent societies which have lost their way?

Our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor! Unlike the Founding Fathers, our lives are probably not truly in jeopardy. In that way, we have it a bit easier. Do we have the backbone to revolt even within the GOP??? We'll see but the answer is a resounding NO! if people who are conservative will be snookered by the GOP-E into voting for whatever ideologically treasonous POS the money obsessive elitists put up and finance to be shoved down our throats. I am not mad. I am furious and I will remain so until these elitist jerks are run out of the GOP or the GOP is destroyed and replaced by a fighting and effective conservative party prepared to wage all out war against the enemies of our movement who are also the enemies of our nation. That would include the limp-wristed GOP $$$ wimpocracy as well as the lavishly funded Marxist-Leninist Demonrats.

If you disagree with the above, that's fine and it's still barely a free country. I am now set in stone and I shall not change on the above content. It is time for "conservatives" to stop whining about their lost RINO POS and to unite to determine a far better future with a GOP worth voting for or alternatively with a new party with backbone and principle. BTW, I prefer a TOTALLY reformed and hardline GOP but, if necessary, will settle for a third party if the GOP is not worth voting for.

I DO hope that YOU are happy with the net result of the GOP nominating Mittler for POTUS and the inevitable defection of actual conservatives.

In any event, Joshua Goldberg can go straight to hell and take with him any other quislings committed to his absence of principle.

Lakeshark:

Did you personally VOTE for Romney after he was nominated???? In spite of the FACT that he was a demonstrated gun grabber? A demonstrated eager supporter of babykilling? A demonstrated supporter of gross perversions posing as "marriage?" A total non-enthusiast for foreign policy and military effort? A "politically correct" slave to leftist sensibilities? I rest my case subject to re-opening it if you actually care to persist in disagreeing.

As to the insults you regularly hurl at actual conservatives who refuse to abandon principle to vote as you vote: My IQ is 163. What's yours? I'll also match my conservative resume against yours anytime. State Chairman of Young Americans for Freedom, Conservative Union, Young Republicans and College Republicans, State Chairman of Ronald Reagan's campaign against that worthless POS Gerald Ford in 1976. Plenty more available on request. How about your resume as you say that those truly principled enough to refuse to vote for Obozo OR Mittler are not conservative but only play conservatives on FR??? I'm waiting!

In your evident misery, you are lashing out at those people of principle who refused to join in your foolish decision to vote for Romney. We weren't jealous of Obozo or resentful that all the Marxism and social revolution will be "credited" to Obozo and the Demonrats. We had no desire to share the blame via Mittler.

It does not matter that you claim not to have wanted Mittler as the nominee. You rewarded him and his corrupt supporters by voting for him which is all he and they ever wanted of you. (The "conservatives" will have no choice once Romney is nominated. Who else can they vote for?) Fortunately, everyone was not as gullible as you were.

If you would zip your lip on your resentments of principled people who knew better than you, we probably can bring ourselves to ignore you and not hunt you on the internet.

Sirius Lee knows what he/she is talking about and you don't. Stop embarrassing yourself.

Lead, follow or get the hell out of the way!

"Some of us caved and voted for Romney in a condition of being physically sick by what we were doing. Never again"

That was me, too. I did cave and I stood in line for an hour and a half to vote for Romney for the most important election in history. Well, that election is over, so the GOP shouldn't need me to be their lackey anymore.

Here it is four years out, and Rubio, the guy some are already looking to as a savior, is explaining the details of his amnesty program to us. No. Just no. HELL NO. I refuse to take part in the willful destruction of my country.

Again I’ll disagree with you Lake on all points.

Romney blew the election because he truly did hope to garner more lib-moderate voters than conservative voters. In the end, the libs voted for Obama. He should have realized that. And he should have gone hard after conservative voters from the get-go.

There is no way any ABO can defend gay couples, gay military, gay boy scouts, health of mother abortion, bi-partisan gun legislation, timidity on Benghazi and Arab spring, and crickets on Fast and Furious. A Mitt-bot might try to defend that nonsense, but not an ABO.

So, it was ROMNEY who make the deciding moves, and it’s Romney who gets to go off to be forgotten, but it’s America that pays the penalty for his foolish campaign decisions.
