Good on 'em. I disagree that conservative principles in pure can save the day right now, first you have to save the patient before good nutrition even matters, but I respect them for taking the stand. They may be right.

For a healthy country - pure conservatism is the proper food. But this is cancer, and this needs chemotherapy, even if it might sicken the patient for a time. Dead people don't respond to good nutrition. That's my case not against conservatism, but against pure conservatism in practice, right now, with Cruz as it's head.

The saying appropriate for this case to conservatives (a triple pun in this case): You may be right .. dead right.

There were allot pundits whose views I respected.

 

But this past year after the GOP won control of Congress and then promptly rolled over and played dead I was beyond livid.

 

In my mind & heart I know illegal immigration is a huge problem that is only getting worse. But when those same pundits come to the rescue of those in Washington DC that did nothing I started to wake up.

 

Hell yes! Trump has tapped into the rage. Is he talking about cutting babies up in our morning cereal or some other form of mass genocide? No. He did call on a halt on all immigration of a population that right now has a horrible track record on human rights.

 

And then when those very same pundits whined and stomped in lock step with the liberal media, it was clear to see, they are one and the same.

 

I have lost count on the number of online articles or tv news episodes that claim "THIS IS IT! TRUMP CROSSED THE LINE! HE WILL START TO TANK.......SOON"  or some other variation.

 

The Establishment gave us "W" and his bail out ( I voted and liked the guy, but his last 6 months and the way he handled the bubble collapse was beyond the pale). The establishment gave us McCain and then Romney. 

 

We have had it. We lost faith and trust in the establishment and their representatives in the media "The Pundits"

 

So National Review - by all means you have the right to dedicate an entire issue as an attack on the leading GOP candidate. More power to ya!

 

But as YOU count the number of canceled subscriptions and dwindling page hits to your web site.

 

Ask yourself "Who is out of touch? And why?"

National Review and conservatism don’t belong in the same sentence.

Are Conservatives for unlimited open borders and rotten trade deals ? If so , NR is right there with them

Earlier today, one of the Cruz supporters made a comment about Trump not holding Conservative views: 1)Lower taxes, 2)Smaller government, and 3)Abortion.

To me that really clarified why there may be the big disconnect between a lot of Trump supporters and a lot of Trump opponents.

For me, bigger issues are 1)A porous border allowing in an unlimited amount of illegal Mexicans and Central Americans, as well as likely Islamic terrorists, 2)Radical Islamic terrorism, and 3)The destruction of our culture through out-of-control political correctness.

Lower taxes and smaller government seem fairly trivial to me in comparison to the risk of losing my life or my freedoms.

To every single one of you who associated yourself with this trash magazine and had anything to do with trashing Trump or Cruz: We loathe and despise you beyond my ability to describe. That’s why I’m cutting and pasting this generated insult below, especially for you elites. You’re DEAD to us; do you hear?

Oh, and THANK YOU FOR GIVING TRUMP AT LEAST 5 MORE POINTS IN THE POLLS. lol! What a gift! We may just sweep all 50 states if you keep this up. Write more of your crap next week!


You swine. You vulgar little maggot. You worthless bag of filth. As we say in Texas, you couldn’t pour water out of a boot with instructions printed on the heel. You are a canker, an open wound. I would rather kiss a lawyer than be seen with you. You took your last vacation in the Islets of Langerhans.

You’re a putrescent mass, a walking vomit. You are a spineless little worm deserving nothing but the profoundest contempt. You are a jerk, a cad, and a weasel. I take that back; you are a festering pustule on a weasel’s rump. Your life is a monument to stupidity. You are a stench, a revulsion, a big suck on a sour lemon.

I will never get over the embarrassment of belonging to the same species as you. You are a monster, an ogre, a malformity.

I barf at the very thought of you. You have all the appeal of a paper cut. Lepers avoid you. You are vile, worthless, less than nothing. You are a weed, a fungus, the dregs of this earth. You are a technicolor yawn. And did I mention that you smell?

You are a squeaking rat, a mistake of nature and a heavy-metal bagpipe player. You were not born. You were hatched into an unwilling world that rejects the likes of you. You didn’t crawl out of a normal egg, either, but rather a mutant maggot egg rejected by an evil scientist as being below his low standards. Your alleged parents abandoned you at birth and then died of shame in recognition of what they had done to an unsuspecting world. They were a bit late.

Try to edit your responses of unnecessary material before attempting to impress us with your insight. The evidence that you are a nincompoop will still be available to readers, but they will be able to access it ever so much more rapidly. If cluelessness were crude oil, your scalp would be crawling with caribou.

You are a thick-headed trog. I have seen skeet with more sense than you have. You are a few bricks short of a full load, a few cards short of a full deck, a few bytes short of a full core dump, and a few chromosomes short of a full human. Worse than that, you top-post. God created houseflies, cockroaches, maggots, mosquitos, fleas, ticks, slugs, leeches, and intestinal parasites, then he lowered his standards and made you. I take it back; God didn’t make you. You are Satan’s spawn. You are Evil beyond comprehension, half-living in the slough of despair. You are the entropy which will claim us all. You are a green-nostriled, crossed eyed, hairy-livered, goisher kopf, inbred trout-defiler. You make Ebola look good.

You are weary, stale, flat and unprofitable. You are grimy, squalid, nasty and profane. You are foul and disgusting. You’re a fool, an ignoramus. Monkeys look down on you. Even sheep won’t have sex with you. You are unreservedly pathetic, starved for attention, and lost in a land that reality forgot. You are not ANSI compliant and your markup doesn’t validate. You have a couple of address lines shorted together. You should be promoted to Engineering Manager.

Do you really expect your delusional and incoherent ramblings to be read? Everyone plonked you long ago. Do you fantasize that your tantrums and conniption fits could possibly be worth the $0.000000001 worth of electricity used to send them? Your life is one big W.O.M.B.A.T., and your future doesn’t look promising either. We need to trace your bloodline and terminate all siblings and cousins in order to cleanse humanity of your polluted genes. The good news is that no normal human would ever mate with you, so we won’t have to go into the sewers in search of your git.

You are a waste of flesh. You have no rhythm. You are ridiculous and obnoxious. You are the moral equivalent of a leech. You are a living emptiness, a meaningless void. You are sour and senile. You are a loathsome disease, a drooling inbred cross-eyed toesucker. You make Quakers shout and strike Pentecostals silent. You have a version 1.0 mind in a version 6.13 world. Your mother had to tie a pork chop around your neck just to get your dog to play with you. You believe that P.D.Q. Bach is the greatest composer who ever lived. You prefer L. Ron Hubbard to Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. Hee-Haw is too deep for you. You would watch test patterns all day if the other inmates would let you.

On a good day you’re a half-wit. You remind me of drool. You are deficient in all that lends character. You have the personality of wallpaper. You are dank and filthy. You are asinine and benighted. Spammers look down on you. Phone sex operators hang up on you. Telemarketers refuse to be seen in public with you. You are the source of all unpleasantness. You spread misery and sorrow wherever you go. May you choke on your own foolish opinions. You are a Pusillanimous galactophage and you wear your sister’s training bra. Don’t bother opening the door when you leave - you should be able to slime your way out underneath. I hope that when you get home your mother runs out from under the porch and bites you.

You smarmy lagerlout git. You bloody woofter sod. Bugger off, pillock. You grotty wanking oik artless base-court apple-john. You clouted boggish foot-licking half-twit. You dankish clack-dish plonker. You gormless crook-pated tosser. You bloody churlish boil-brained clotpole ponce. You craven dewberry pisshead cockup pratting naff. You cockered bum-bailey poofter. You gob-kissing gleeking flap-mouthed coxcomb. You dread-bolted fobbing beef-witted clapper-clawed flirt-gill. You jetere steatopygous pilgarlick hircine whigmaleerious rhadamanthine lintlicker. I refer you to the reply given in the case of Arkell v. Pressdram.

You are so clueless that if you dressed in a clue skin, doused yourself in clue musk, and did the clue dance in the middle of a field of horny clues at the height of clue mating season, you still would not have a clue. If you were a movie you would be a double feature; Battlefield_Earth and Moron_Movies_II. You would be out of focus.

You are a fiend and a sniveling coward, and you have bad breath. You are the unholy spawn of a bandy-legged hobo and a syphilitic camel. You wear strangely mismatched clothing with oddly placed stains. You are degenerate, noxious and depraved. I feel debased just knowing that you exist. I despise everything about you, and I wish you would go away. You are jetsam who dreams of becoming flotsam. You won’t make it. I beg for sweet death to come and remove me from a world which became unbearable when the bioterrorists designed you.

It is hard to believe how incredibly stupid you are. Stupid as a stone that the other stones make fun of. So stupid that you have traveled far beyond stupid as we know it and into a new dimension of stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid cubed. Trans-stupid stupid. Stupid collapsed to a singularity where even the stupons have collapsed into stuponium. Stupid so dense that no intelligence can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot summer day on Mercury stupid. You emit more stupid in one minute than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. It cannot be possible that anything in our universe can really be this stupid. This is a primordial fragment from the original big stupid bang. A pure extract of stupid with absolute stupid purity. Stupid beyond the laws of nature. I must apologize. I can’t go on. This is my epiphany of stupid. After this experience, you may not hear from me for a while. I don’t think that I can summon the strength left to mock your moronic opinions and malformed comments about boring trivia or your other drivel. Duh.

The only thing worse than your logic is your manners. I have snipped away most of your of what you wrote, because, well ... it didn’t really say anything. Your attempt at constructing a creative flame was pitiful. I mean, really, stringing together a bunch of insults among a load of babbling was hardly effective... Maybe later in life, after you have learned to read, write, spell, and count, you will have more success. True, these are rudimentary skills that many of us “normal” people take for granted that everyone has an easy time of mastering. But we sometimes forget that there are “challenged” persons in this world who find these things to be difficult. If I had known that this was true in your case then I would have never have exposed myself to what you wrote. It just wouldn’t have been “right.” Sort of like parking in a handicap space. I wish you the best of luck in the emotional, and social struggles that seem to be placing such a demand on you.

P.S.: You are hypocritical, greedy, violent, malevolent, vengeful, cowardly, deadly, mendacious, meretricious, loathsome, despicable, belligerent, opportunistic, barratrous, contemptible, criminal, fascistic, bigoted, racist, sexist, avaricious, tasteless, idiotic, brain-damaged, imbecilic, insane, arrogant, deceitful, demented, lame, self-righteous, byzantine, conspiratorial, satanic, fraudulent, libelous, bilious, splenetic, spastic, ignorant, clueless, EDLINoid, illegitimate, harmful, destructive, dumb, evasive, double-talking, devious, revisionist, narrow, manipulative, paternalistic, fundamentalist, dogmatic, idolatrous, unethical, cultic, diseased, suppressive, controlling, restrictive, malignant, deceptive, dim, crazy, weird, dyspeptic, stifling, uncaring, plantigrade, grim, unsympathetic, jargon-spouting, censorious, secretive, aggressive, mind-numbing, arassive, poisonous, flagrant, self-destructive, abusive, socially-retarded, puerile, pinguid, and Generally Not Good.

These right wing groups are a bunch of money hungry phonies. They would rather lose to Hilary than nominate the best republican candidate we’ve had since Reagan. Yeah I said it!

NR will be digital only by the time the next POTUS campaign rolls around. They are on life support. Totally irrelevant outside the incestuous beltway crowd.

You know this really will help Trumps poll numbers. These so called “conservatives” are conservatives like George Will is conservative. They’re the token conservatives. The good little conservatives who don’t fight too nasty or too hard for conservatism.
But there will no doubt some voters who hate conservatives who see or hear about this and they’ll say “Gee look, conservatives don’t like Trump so he must be okay”. They’ll listen to Trump and HEAR a conservative message maybe for the first time. And like it.

That’s why the token conservatives don’t like him. He’ll actually FIGHT and bring more people to conservatism instead of just having the role of saying “Yes massah” to their liberal overlords.


Yep. It wouldn’t shock me to see Trump pick a VP like Webb from Virginia. Trump is just triangulating the heck out the Dems and they have no target to shoot at. The Dems so badly want to run against a beltway GOP careerist but Trump isn’t that.

Hillary is running as a 3rd Obama term and the Dems are out of ideas. This should be a cake walk for the GOP. Only the GOP can lose this one, IMO. Ha!

Not under the current NR leadership. They are trying to kill off the print edition and go digital only, IMO.
