I don't know if GW hates Conservatives, but he sure does not have any around him! Powell said once that his values are more on the democratic side.

Powell supports abortion on demand, and gun control.

This is just the latest post that suggests that you ought to go back to Arkansas because your desire to RINOize New Hampshire does not do you credit. I certainly hope that Sununu the Younger has more principle than the turncoat birdbrain that fate dealt him for a father. Furthermore, some of us have been Republican long enough to distinguish between slimy yuppie greed and actual Republicanism.

Perhaps you can tell us how you (not Sununu the Sequel/Nightmare in Manchester Part II) feel about abortion and homosexuality and homeschooling. His father claimed to be right on those issues and gave us that three-dollar bill Souter on the Supreme Court who, if anything, is probably worse than Brennan.

You know, Tancredo probably has a good voting record generally but catering to anti-Mexican bigotry is not a particular feather in his cap. How many times do y'all need to be whacked over the head with a 2 by 4 before you get the message that those coming north are potential allies? But NOOOOO, we just aren't really conservative unless we show that the old Know Nothing Party wing of the GOP's ancestry is still alive.

12% of Americans are black and have been totally alienated. In a very good year, Republicans or conservatives might get 1 black vote in 8. Blacks poll more pro-life than whites and less pro-lavender than whites but, hey, they aren't obsessed with capital gains tax cuts so let's tell 'em to drop dead, right? This is why the GOP is seen by many American blue collars as the bosses' and owners' party and the GOP has gotten what passes for its brains beaten in on this stuff for at least 70 years. Does the elephant learn? Of course not.

A very high percentage of Hispanics voted for Ronald Reagan and GHWB and Dubya but you guys are working hard to see to it that the poverty pimps among the Chicanos will control the Hispanic vote, even of their middle class as you drip the acid of contempt from your mouths. But, hey, they aren't like us. They speak Spanish, eat funny new kinds of food, are not at all likely to munch watercress sandwiches at 4 PM down at the polo club.

I guess I still have an attitude about the old "No Irish Need Apply" signs that greeted my ancestors when they got off the boat in Boston not long before they kicked those who posted the signs out of Boston and drove them to the North Shore. I'll take James Michael Curley over Planned Barrenhood any day.

Those who think this anti-immigration shtick is a good idea ought to read Peter Brimelow's Alien Nation in Which, as a recent immigrant from England, married to a recent immigrant from Canada, Brimelow informs us breathlessly that he intends that when his ten year old blond, blue-eyed son is fifty, that America should look like little Brimelow.

Other than the gilt-edged nerve, haven't we heard this line somewhere before? About 75 years agoi? Little guy, bouncing up and down on his heels, shock of hair across the forehead, hysterical rhetoric? OK, perhaps I exaggerate but this Brimelow and his FAIR followers are pushing ideas whose time has gone, and a good thing that their time is gone, too.

Wrong! Smith is the victim of his own stupidity.

[CreekerFreeper]

Senator Jim Bunning is far more conservative than that piece of crap McConnell.

Where's he at?

[MissAmericanPie]

We need stronger conservatives in the Senate.

ROTLOL! I agree with you 100%. Great response to GraniteStateConservative's tired stock RINO response supporting the latest mushy moderate's bid to unseat arch-conservative hero, Senator Robert Smith!

[rightwing2]

Senator Jim Bunning is far more conservative than that piece of crap McConnell. Where's he at?

Bunning scored at an uncharacteristically low moderate conservative 58% for last year's votes. McConnell's score surprised me too, but I have to say that his championing the fight against the Bush-McCain-Daschle-Gephardt Democrap Congressional Majority Insurance Bill impressed me quite a bit. He showed a hell of a lot more conservative principle and fight than did our conservatively-challenged President!

You've got it all wrong. While it is true that "only 66% of Latinos vote Democrap overall, somewhere on the order of 90% Latino legal and illegal immigrants vote Democrap as do criminal felons for that matter. In fact, the Latinoization of California is what damn near lost the Presidency for the GOP the last election and what might well have lost it in 1996 and 1992 as well. That is why California has become a virtually impregnable Democrap stronghold. We have some very fine Latinos in our party, but they tend to be those who are second and third generation Latino-Americans, not first generation Latinos who perhaps out of a desire for more welfare state benefits vote Democrap by the masses. I mean do the math. Gingrich championed making Puerto Rico the 51st state in a bid to appease liberal-minded Latinos in this country. Every study of Puerto Rico becoming a state shows that it would add 2 Democrap Senators, and 7 probably 8 Democrap House members with a maximum of zero to 1 GOP House members added to Congress. This alone would mean a total Democrap takeover of both Houses of Congress. The bottom line is that you cannot appease liberal Latinos just as you cannot appease liberal Euro-Americans. It is a losing fight because they will always vote Democrap. Sure we need to do a better job of convincing Latinos to join the GOP, but not by embracing stupid liberal policies.

Have you read Death of the West by Pat Buchanan yet? Death of the West has had more impact on the right than any other book this year. The facts are all very well authenticated. And the conclusions are as inexorable as the exponential numbers upon which they are based. Now, since you mention Irish Catholics, Mr. Buchanan certainly qualifies as an authority in your book, no? The brilliant and brave Mr. Buchanan makes it quite clear that if the Immigration Invasion of non-European peoples into the homelands of European Whites is not stopped there will rather sooner than later BE NO WHITE EUROPEAN NATIONS! Literally.

I agree with you completely. Pat Buchanan is a conservative champion and an American hero and his book the Death of the West just as the two great books that proceeded it in particular A Republic Not an Empire are some of the best conservative reference books we have seen in decades!

"You know, Tancredo probably has a good voting record generally but catering to anti-Mexican bigotry"

If a bigot says the sun is yellow, must we insist that it is blue?

[Tauzero]

"Brimelow informs us breathlessly that he intends that when his ten year old blond, blue-eyed son is fifty, that America should look like little Brimelow."

Why would that be a bad thing?

[Tauzero]

"It is a losing fight because they will always vote Democrap. Sure we need to do a better job of convincing Latinos to join the GOP, but not by embracing stupid liberal policies."

Yes, we do have to do a better job, but let's get the priority straight: the GOP generally has won -- and it can still win, for now -- by getting a solid majority of white votes. Making significant inroads into black or hispanic communities will take more time than is left to save the USA.

Without first largely dismantling the welfare state, the GOP can only make those inroads by moving still further left. The only significant pool of opposition to the welfare state is in the white community.

But if the GOP goal is simply power for its own sake, then by all means it should pander to minorities.

[conserve-it]

BUMP CIT-TAY !!

[Fred Mertz]

Yeah, what's McConnell doing up there?...he's a RINO.

Bunning is much more of the conservative mold IMHO.

Where's Ron Paul?

This ranking is bogus.

[Fred Mertz]

Okay, okay....somehow I missed Ron Paul.

Muchos apologies!!
