The GOPe RINOS are starting to believe that grassroots tea party conservatives are their enemy

The GOPe RINOS and their enablers are starting to believe that grassroots tea party conservatives are their enemy. And they might even be right for a change.

So how are they going to combat that? Why, by moving even farther to the left, of course. Would never occur to these yahoos to even try to stand on principle and lock-in the grassroots conservative vote.

Our representatives are permanently out to lunch.

What do you think? Should we moderate our stance or soften our positions on abortion? Homo marriage? Gun control? Amnesty? Border security? National security? Commie health care? Big government? Big spending? Big taxes? Big debt? Cradle to grave nanny statism? Agenda 21?

How in the world are we going to appease the squishes and motor voter morons by standing on principle?

We can't.

Why bother?

Why even have an opposition party if they don't oppose the evil bastards?

Time to dump the tea into the RINO harbor.

Time for a tea party rebellion.

Need to wipe out the RINOs and their democrat brothers!!

Tea party landslide in November!!

Live free or die!!

Don't tread on me!!

I seem to recall you are a Navy man, so I’ll try to put my opinion in such manner.

The storm is upon us and the seas are threatening.
Keep your prow to the waves and don’t let the ship get turned and broached.

I think they started to believe it back in 2010. Now they are making sure of it.

“RINOS are starting to believe that grassroots tea party conservatives are their enemy”

It sure took them a long time to figure it out.

Anyone that dumb needs to be retired.

When the left or the Republican party talk to or about the conservatives/tea party... they sound like they are talking to just a handful of people out here. I don’t think they have yet accepted the fact that we are in the millions. They think if they can marginalize the “few”, they can then garner the Independents. Not realizing that every day the obama administration does another unconstitutional act, and adds to the lies, there are more who turn against him. Every time the Repubs dis the conservatives, they are adding numbers to our ranks. I have come to the conclusion the repubs would rather have the dems in control than win an election via the Tea Party. We are foreigners. I think they have us pegged as poor, illiterate, and beneath them.
They need to get out more... they could learn about the United States of America and what its made up of. For, they do not know. They have all lost their way in Washington

Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.

Been getting a lot of mail from this group:

http://www.senateconservatives.com/

I see they’re trying to primary McConnell and Bonehead.

Of course there’s also SarahPAC, Tea Party Express and many others.

Maybe we can use conservative PACs like these to help prune some dead wood?

Not a penny to Rove’s PAC or the GOP!! Go with a pro-life conservative or tea party PAC or direct to the candidates.

I’m wondering if there is some common ground that we can find, even with lefties and certainly those in the middle.

There is.
I think we can find common ground on the subject of Justice — when I ask someone who's into "social justice" if it is just to steal someone's house and give it to someone else, they say "no" and will agree that "social justice" without [real] justice is just 'social' — if you ask them about the NSA's domestic spying they're on our side saying that is wrong — if you bring up the politically-motivated IRS targetings they'll agree that that is wrong.

When you bring up the police brutality, no-knock warrants, and all the rest that are resultant of militarizing the police you're more likely to get disagreement from conservatives* when you say this is wrong! than you are with a "leftie" or a "middle".

I think framing the debt in terms of Justice would be a winning move, too — point out that the public debt is guaranteed-by/with the taxes [which it is illegal not to pay] the government will collect in the future, that their endless debt-incurrance is literally selling you, your children, their children, grand-children, and great-great-grandchildren into slavery.


* Conservative as in wants to keep things the way they are.

We have more in common with Occupy than the liberals do.
