I wanted a conservative to win, not a “GOP guy”. This isn’t football, with the red jerseys and the blue jerseys.

and the GOP sabotaging and betraying McDaniel

You are quite wrong about this.

No I'm not, it's factual. You are completely out of the loop with you angry reply.

I can't take everyone acting surprised and hurt.

Who's that???

People are passionate about bringing this country back to the Constitutional Republic it was intended to be.

Who the f*** did you thin you were up against?

Who the hell do you think you are to cuss me out? Back off.

So did I, but McDaniels is both a conservative and a GOP guy.

You can keep supporting libs if you want, but I’m going to keep fighting. Go ahead and quit if you want.

Everybody already knows all that Norm. Your post was pointless. You weren’t interested in a discussion. Forget about it.

So by supporting conservatives one supports liberals and by supporting liberals one is conservative.

Allow me to express my deepest gratitude. This morning, I woke up with a very different view. But I see now how one is clearly deluding themselves thinking that supporting conservatives results in support of conservatives. I cannot tell you how embarrassing it is to learn my belief of supporting liberal republicans meant one supported liberal republicans, was a terrible, terrible lie.

From the bottom of my chastised heart. Thank you. I feel whole now. So when do I get my participation trophy and pizza?

I’m about the same age. FWIW, I enjoyed voting for Ronald Reagan. I was still active duty when he finished up his final term, and I’ll tell you I choked up. I knew I was losing a leader, and that odds are I’d never see the same again.

Some aspects of GW Bush pleased me. His stubborn refusal not to defend himself, however, was not leadership. It injured the mission.

Odd then that you address none of it. I made several legitimate points. You ignored them and made accusations for reasons I can’t imagine. Seems like there is one of us that doesn’t want to discuss this but it isn’t me. I even went as far as to reevaluate the original discussion after reading the passage in question over and posting a followup.

But nothing surprises me anymore. I Do however see why there is a ‘christian’ church in every strip mall. So many ‘truths’ to choose from it seems. And no shortage of people to preach nonsense in them.

The GOP obviously didn’t think he was a GOP guy-it’s one thing to run against him, it’s another to pull low rotten tricks that they scorn to use on America’s enemies. Do you think McDaniels thinks he’s a “GOP guy” right now?

I never said that. Nice straw man argument.

I cannot tell you how embarrassing it is to learn my belief of supporting liberal republicans meant one supported liberal republicans, was a terrible, terrible lie.

Sarcasm, hyperbole, and logical fallacy all in one paragraph and you probably think you were being clever.

More sarcasm, and more hyperbole. You should stick to pinging your friend to threads, it's your most effective debate technique.

Well whats the point in attempting serious discussion with people that are determined to ensure the GOP retains the ability to protect democrats?

It’s the same wrongheaded crap/professional talking points we hear every 2 years. GOp no matter what/dems are worse/lesser evil.

You tell me. Why should any conservative play this idiot game anymore?

And what difference is there in pinging anyone? Any of us on their own can handle the whole crew from the GOPe. Having listened to nonsense for several elections we know what will be said before the fanclub drools it out again.

The GOP just tanked a conservative and is now fighting in Virginia to defund the winner there.

you want more? Defend it.

The GOPe didn't think he was GOPe enough and they are fighting for control of the party, just like we should be instead of whining that we lost. You think scum bags Rove and Bloomberg are ever going to play nice? This is not remarkably different from the GOPe treated Goldwater or Reagan, Keyes, Buchanan, Joe Miller, Palin, etc. etc.

It's serious, it's a big problem, but it's not going to be solved by quitting. To answer your question yes, I think McDaniels still considers himself a Republican although I hope he can be talked into running as an independent against Cochran.

If you want to put every single back stabbing RINO POS involved in this on your S-list forever I'm with you. Want to rub it in their faces when ever they need support I'm with you. Want to target anyone they support? I'm with you. Want Thad Cochran to lose so bad you don't care if a Dem gets in (after all, what is the difference)? I'm with you. Want to abandon the party and let the RINOs have it? I am not with you.

If you think that I'm supporting the GOPe in anything your reading comprehension is on par with your sense of humor.

GOp no matter what/dems are worse/lesser evil.

I never made any such claims. What I said was a third party is a fools errand. If you aren't going to fight for the soul of your party then you don't have the heart to fight for a new one either.

And what difference is there in pinging anyone? Any of us on their own can handle the whole crew from the GOPe.

Wow...you are calling me GOPe? Obviously you can't handle me if all you can do is lie about my position and erect another straw man to knock down. At least with your friends here you would have someone cheering you on. My posting history shows quite clearly that I've been unceasing in arguing against every GOPe/RINO scumbag the GOPe have trotted out and every policy the GOPe is for, even when they were quite popular here.

The GOP just tanked a conservative and is now fighting in Virginia to defund the winner there.

The GOPe tanked a GOP conservative and The GOPe is fighting to defund the GOP conservative winner in Virgina. It's obvious to anyone that can read that I never defended the GOPe and have always defended the GOP conservatives. Do you think it's ok to abandon them for some 3rd party fantasy? Really? Regardless, do whatever you want. What I want is more conservatives to join the fight to clean the GOPe out of the party without all the whining, tearing of hair, and gnashing of teeth ever time we lose a battle. This is a war that cannot be won, only fought.

“Obviously’ in the same post you wrote that third party is a fools errand and you are not supporting the GOPe.

Do you are what...A democrat? No? There are so many options here. Pick one.

You’re doing the obsessive stalking of poster Norm, and I am going to have the moment of truth?
LOL!

I’ve enjoyed plenty of popcorn and grins watching you chase after Norm until he catches you.

Then we all get to see you run around howling over your scalded tail, racing for the high ground, pulling out your creepy manual titled, “Room 12”, then descend from on high as some kind of seer to judge the souls of those who nail your netherregion on your politics.

Popcorn, anyone? No sitcom is this good, or predictable. You have a reputation, ya’ know. Carry on.

I'll make it as simple as possible for you.
The GOPe stands for Grand Old Party Establishment. This term is used to differentiate liberal powermonger scumbags from the rest of the GOP. Much like the term RINO. (Republican In Name Only). Chris McDaniels is a conservative Republican and a member of the GOP, just like I am. Just like Reagan was. Just like Barry Goldwater was. Just like Sarah Palin, Joe Carr, Ted Cruz, Joe Miller, Trey Gowdy, Scott Walker etc. still are. I support conservative Republicans and I will not turn my back on them for some 3rd party pipe dream. Speaking of pipe dreams...

Do you are what...A democrat? No? There are so many options here. Pick one.

Are you on drugs? If so there is already a "3rd" party just for you.

Fear not! Being the wannabee white knight type, when your soul is likewise condemned to hell I shall save it!

But I was already there once today. Had to go get mine back from last night’s condemnation so I gotta wait till tomorrow.

One soul per trip per day. It’s the rules. I saw it in the bible near the passage declaring abortion to be a lesser evil.

Let me clarify reality for you. The GOPe is a freeper term that exists on no ballot. Support for the GOP is support for the GOPe. No one at the RNC divides cash based on the e. So you either support the GOP, the Democrats or someone else.

You arent a Dem and oppose 3rd parties. That leaves the GOP which includes GOPe, like it or not.
