Nah...they won't harass him. :-) It's O.K....as you well know, NOBODY "really" wants to argue with us. It's frustrating and pointless....and they only leave mad or scared, or both.

People are losing their ability to think rationally in this thread. Is this an indicator of what we will see/hear when the time comes closer to Nov 2008 and they really do understand that mass numbers of us will NOT vote for the "Appointed RINO Golden Child"? Is this how they're going to react?

Nothing productive ever comes from mass numbers of people acting out of fear, but this thread has indicators all over it that this is what people are doing. The prevailing attitude is "anybody but Hillary!" But we don't think this way! We think RINOs are just as bad as Hillary! So WHAT is the big difference!?

I've noticed the shrillness, and intensity being ratcheted up by those shrieking that we "must rally behind (insert your candidate here)!" or else the sky is going to fall and our eyeballs are going to rot from their sockets and we're all going to get hemmoroids, gout, fungus under our toenails and a rash in a very bad place! Yeah...yeah....WHATEVER. Their sense of urgency doesn't change anything for us.

We're NOT voting for RINOs, and if Fred and Duncan don't make it into the "finals" we're still screwed. People need to come to terms with the reality of the coming badness and just prepare as best they can, rather than panic.

Jim really panicked em with this one though! :-)

Oh, it's much worse than that! People throughout this entire country are losing the ability to think rationally... /grin

Either option leads inexorably to the destruction of our nation - one just slightly less immediately than the other. From my perspective, about the only difference is that by continuing to vote for RINOS we are actually sanctioning and giving our stamp of approval to our own destruction.

In a life and death battle it is always better to be victorious and survive. If we cannot win, however, it is still far better to be defeated and slain in honorable combat than to submit and be forced to sign your own death warrant.

An honorable defeat at least leaves a chance for the next generation to be inspired and continue the fight, but a craven submission destroys that hope and extinguishes the very remembrance of the ideas and principles for which we strove.
