Here's a direct link to the "report"... interesting reading, to say the least.

“If the Republicans behave like Democrats, why do we need two parties?”

EXACTLY! The Republican Party is supposed to be an alternatve to the Democrat Party, not it’s little brother.

“The Republican Party is hopeless, I hink it is time to bail on them and start a third party. Results can’t be any worse than watching these fools flounder.”

I agree. I mean, what hope can you have for a body that keeps sending The Whiner In Chief to the podium with the House gavel?

Hey Ger, I notice a lack of supporters on this and the other threads today. Think they are just getting their talking point excuses together or are they finally willing to accept the GOP has gone full Democrat?

There is no leadership coming from the GOP since Reagan left office.
No one has the moxie to stand up and tell the American people what the realities are.

Sad to say, this isn't Regan's America anymore.

The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 opened the door to amnesty for about 3 million illegals.
Now we have another 12 to 30 million here.

Our own President and federal government have more empathy for the law breaking illegal aliens living here and mooching off taxpayers than it does for solid citizens who work for a living, pay taxes and obey the law.

Citizens who believe in the US Constitution and believe our government should enforce the law are not only a minority - we are now considered radicals by our own President and his tyrannical government.

I held my nose and voted for Romney. I held my nose and voted for McCain. But, damn it, if the GOP is going to keep sticking it to conservatives by foisting unelecatble Dem-Lites on us, then it will continue to founder. And it will do so without me.

It sure looks like the realization has hit most FReepers and many conservatives that the Vichy Poop GOPe sees them as more of an enemy than they do Democrats

Yup.

Glad to have them back...if in fact they intend to stay here. We were right, they were wrong. It’s done. So lets see if we can finish the job as a movement and get our overall crap together.

To: AuntB; what's up

I’m waiting for the biggest supporter the GOP has to chime in with one of his regularly scheduled excuses for the latest cave in and abandonment.

So “what’s up”, What’s up?

Yes! Immigration Reform! Turn it into emigration! Or even Deportation!

Put the RINO’s on the same boat...

I realized it back when the GOP beltway crowd was doing everything it could to diminish and backstab Palin, and it culminated when the Convention basically outlawed the very words “tea party” from even being uttered.

Altogether, for this lifelong and once-proud Republican voter, it added up to four years of being spit in the face. They see me as an enemy? Well, the feeling is mutual now, I can assure them.

Lost cause. Unless someone knows how to get into the voting group and take back the party.

I mean I am a registered republican. Now how does one get their vote in on policy? I think we have enough conservatives who consider themselves republicans to swarm And take over.

What is the procedure?


See this? This is the GOP-e. Karl Rove has his own chapel over in the lower right - isn't that nice? And the DemocRATs have a secret tunnel entrance. Ssssh!

Anyway, you've got to storm the bulwarks and topple the entrenched leadership, all the while convincing the myriads of GOP Lords, Ladies and vassals who think there's nothing wrong, that the Tea Party is the future.

Good luck!

“I’m waiting for the biggest supporter the GOP has to chime in with one of his regularly scheduled excuses for the latest cave in and abandonment.”

I’m afraid I don’t know that poster. This one opused out yesterday. She was a whole OTHER level of the ‘faithful’.
http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/by:conservativegreatgra/index?tab=comments;brevity=full;options=no-change

I don’t do opus’s. I just disappear for a year or two.

I can’t believe you willingly woke one of them up. It’s kind of like poking a hornets nest, isn’t it? I admit, I am capable of ticking off someone when I speak directly to them (put that on the long list I’ll burn in hell for...)but this type gets personally offended when you post an article, or a poll and never say a word. No debate, facts or expert opinions, just insults...the Clinton tactic. I find that interesting. I find it harder to be ‘on their side’. 1/3 is represented by one political faction, 1/3 by the other faction, and 1/3 of us by NO ONE. And they just REFUSE to imagine why we don’t like it.
I’m tired of being marginalized, how about you?

Should have seen the signs when George HW Bush was violating his “read my lips” pledge. Or when he was making it, since he was not really part of the Reagan faction in the GOP when he was made VP
