"Civil war?"

Our "ruling class" Democrats and Republicans have all but destroyed "Limited Government." With ObamaCare and the Roberts ruling they've all agreed that there is absolutely no limit on what the government can do for to us. We've learned recently that Obama has politicized all government agencies and they are working against we the people as if we are their "enemy." And I guess we are.

Now comes the total destruction of moral society with the courts ruling for "gay rights." We've also learned that the government is recording our phone calls, reading our emails, logging all of our online activities and credit card purchases. They are tracking our every move and building the world's largest database of information on--us--and the Republican establishment is OK with this? No respect whatsoever for life, liberty, privacy, or the will of the people.

And now they are in the process of legalizing no telling how many millions of illegal alien law breakers and foreigners to take our jobs, drive down our wages, destroy our economy, destroy our culture, destroy moral society and dilute our vote, thus attempting to put the finishing touches on destroying the final remnants of our God-given Liberty? And the GOP-e is powerless to stop it? Or worse, they're actually driving it?

Paraphrasing Ronald Reagan: I did not leave the Republican Party, it left me.

Liberty is never more than one generation from extinction.

NOT ON MY WATCH!

DON'T TREAD ON ME!!

I'm in! This is a clear, concise name which might also attract the younger crowd in light of the recent NSA scandal.. Sounds great! 'Freedom Party'.. I like it. The party platform should include 'privacy' as a sacred right of every American under the Bill of Rights. I think this particular element of the platform is THE way to bring the younger demographic into the party. Take note, Sarah!

I say, it has to start somewhere, so lets get the ball rolling. Damn the Press full speed ahead! I don’t like a 3 way election, but if we can have a run off of the top 2 I’m for it! We have to test the waters. Its us against Soros’s money that is being bet on his horse Hillary.

Jim, I’m sick of the establishment repubicans telling me that if a third party is formed it will insure democrats are never defeated.

We don’t have anyone representing true Conservatives! Maybe after a couple of elections where the third party splits the stupid GOP-e, just maybe they will get the message.

I have argued this same position, but I am fed up with the way Conservatives are treated and it is time to go with a third party!

I’m in, and Mrs. Horsey is too!

If Boehner pushes this atrocity of an amnesty bill through, I’m gone.

I’m hanging in there by a thread right now.

“If that bill gets through the House in any way fashion or form, it won’t matter if we have ten other parties, we’ll always be a minority in a third world country.”

very true.

Only chance to stop the Amnesty bill is for the House not to consider any immigration related bill at all.

Michelle Bachman explained it. ANY House bill no matter if it promises all the border security in the world will be a trojan horse.NO bill at all must come out of the House because it will be merged with the Senate Amnesty and trojan horse bill. Call congress.

Tell them to stop all Amnesty or immigration bills.they are all trojan horse bills. some will promise border security that will never be enforced anyway.

Bachmann explained it . The House will write a border security bill only . then in conference the senate will add the virus and then bring it back to the house. then the conservatives won’t vote for it but democrats will all vote for it so then they only need 10% of republicans to pass Amnesty and the virus that will destroy America. so any bill at all will be added the virus . so best thing is for Boner to not let any immigration bill at all come out of the House. that is the only hope . call boner and the members of the House.

Tom Tancredo echos what Michelle Bachmann said.

call congress . no bill at all from the House

Your post history is what it is Lake. You are a Palin supporter, no doubt, but you have also spent MONTHS screaming at /about ‘purists’ and having a tantrum that people refused to vote for psuedocons to win. Now here you are all conservative on a thread filled with the very people you trashed and mocked, and the very IDEAS you trashed and mocked, trying to fit in.

What any movement away does NOT need is people like you that pushed so very hard for the GOP status quo.

Yes, it’s time. I believe a large plurality of historically Republican voters want what their party has always promised, but will no longer deliver: smaller government, lower taxes, traditional values and a strong national defense.

When GOPs such as Paul Ryan and Marco Rubio betray us and deliver our country into the hands of those who would destroy it, it’s time.

When GOPs such as John Insane and Linda Grahamnesty aren’t ridiculed and shunned by a sizable representation of the GOP Congress, it’s time.

When GOPs such as Ted Cruz and Rand Paul are name-called and marginalized by their own party, it’s time.

When faux men with no core principles, such as Boehner, Cantor, and McConnell are the leadership of the party, it’s time.

The Republican party of our fathers no longer exists. When more than 50% of the Repubican voters polled say they do NOT want this amnesty bill, but their own party refuses to acknowledge their voices, it’s past time.

There’s nothing left to gain by staying in a party that’s making it clear they’ll give us another Romney or McCain-type candidacy in 2016, if not something worse. They will lose again anyway, so let them do it without us. A new party, one with kindred spirits of Sarah Palin, willing to launch it and work their hearts out for it as though the future of our nation depended on it (because it does), would at least give us something from which to build.

The only one I mocked on this thread was you Normy, and trust me you deserve all the mocking you can get.

Stupid and drunk is no way to go through life.

In Texas, we have 36 reps. 24 so-called republicans and 12 RATS.

Of the 24 so-called pubbies, I want to believe that there are, maybe, 10 real Cruz-type supporters of change.

That means in Texas, which is probably more anti-GOPe than any other state, we bring 11 out 38 (just under 30%) DC types to the Freedom Party movement.

Getting the rest of the country to that level would be tough, if not impossible.

Perfect timing = I’ll say.

She given Boehner notice before the House has had a chance to make one move on the Senate’s traitorous legislation.

Proceed at your own individual and collective peril.

KILL THIS BILL and do not write any other that can go to reconciliation.

The future of our Republic and the GOP lie in the House. Period.

A true Second party is inevitable. The sooner we acknowledge such, the sooner we can begin the fight for Liberty and the rollback of the unconstitutional parts of the Federal Levithan.

It's very liberating to know that the new Freedom Party will quickly ignite hope in tens of millions of Americans...

Then energy of the Freedom Party will dwarf that of the Tea Party..

Let's flank the GOP-e and leave them in the dustbin of history.
