A vote for a Democrat congressman is a vote for Nancy Pelosi as Speaker.

A vote for a Democrat senate candidate is a vote for Harry Reid as Senate Majority Leader.

Let’s nationalize this. No matter how moderate or reasonable a Democrat running for Congress may seem, they will be votes for the Obama agenda if elected. Let’s not lose sight of that.

I would say that it is about sanity and survival of the republic; bottom line, are the normal hard-working people of this country now outnumbered by the libtards, parasites, ignoramuses, and apathetic?

Incompetence? It’s an election about deception.

The choice in November is between bulls**t and horses**t. The democrats are offering BS and the source of BS is, obviously bulls. Bulls aren’t good for much except screwing over the herd. Republicans are offering horses**t which, obviously, comes from horses. Horses actually can be useful if guided and applied to a task properly.

GOP-e thinks this is an opportunity to win and take the lead in the old dance. We will get nothing but road apples if we vote and go home. Putting these GOP-e idiots in office will be meaningless unless we ride them with skill, unremitting determination and really change things. Leaving them to their own devices will not improve the air around here.

Many GOPe candidates are campaigning on their ability to run Big Government more competently.

That’s why Dear Leader is out on the campaign trail. Valerie told him to get his punk ass out there and go and collect some cash. She knows her demonic stronghold is about to be over with, if they lose.

Having been on the business end of removal of both bulls**t and horses**t, I can say with authority that horses**t is the less unpleasant to deal with. It is both drier and less odoriferous, and makes nice pickings for the sparrows.

But that aside, neither is the preferred decoration for the front parlor.

Our Democrat President doesn’t like his job, so he’s gone golfing. He likes to lecture because then he’s the only one talking.

When American voters elected Republicans to the House majority in 2010, they did so because we promised to be a check on President Obama, rein in the intrusion of government in their lives, and create jobs. That’s an obligation we’ve taken seriously.

Seriously? Yeah, right.

I appreciate the passion that you bring to your argument, and in the past I would have agreed. I always held my nose and voted Republican.

But with all due respect, I think that it is more important to defeat the RINOs than to defeat the Democrats.

There are two reasons why I now take this position:

1) Because the Republican Party must be forced to face the reality that they cannot win elections without the support of the conservative base, and must be forced to recognize that if they want to win elections, they have to abandon the whole "moderate reach-across-the-aisle" thing and start standing on conservative principles.

2) I think that a Republican minority party that stands and act on principle, and knows how to articulate those principles, will do more to raise public awareness if how destructive the Democrat policies are for our nation, while taking strong action to frustrate the Democrat agenda.

As exhibit A for my argument, I submit the following brief article:

Warner presses Gillespie on climate change

So I am done voting for RINO/GOPe candidates EVER again.

Democrats and republicans are now just playing “good cop, bad cop” with us. It’s why incumbency and RINO’s are as big an issue as “Democrat”.

It’s why I’m voting for the Democrat against McConnell - the first time I’ve voted democrat since I voted for Dixie Lee Ray in 1972.

For a lot of us the primaries are over, we will go to the polls and have a choice between a democrat or a republican, I think that was the point he was trying to make.

Ask President Dukakis about a platform of “competence”.

If a majority of voters gave a rat’s ass about competence, we would not be in this fix. But they don’t, and we are.

People want to be led. They want to be told what to do. Obama has them dialed in, and the GOPe is clueless.

Well, the point I was trying to make is that we shouldn't be voting for any more RINOs in any general election. EVER.

See Reason #1 in my post.
