Not all of us are near retirement age. We have to live with the marxist dictator in chief’s policies a hell of a lot longer.
His goal has been to fundamentally change the US. Well he’s damn well on his way of accomplishing that goal. You are a fool if you think this election is like any others. It’s not. We have a truly evil american hater in the WH who bows to our enemies while stabbing our allies in the back, not to mention all of us who he’s supposed to be serving.
Do you think he’s not going to finish the job if given 4 more years? You think he’s going to suddenly stop using his czars to bypass congress? God have mercy on us if you and similar temper tantrum throwers cost us 4 more years of hell.
After the primaries of '08, I pretty much came to have contempt for folks who relied on this tired old whininig self-pitying phrase to describe people who out of principle withheld their votes from liberals.
People who take the tone of a schoolmarm talking down to children give me a pain. Here's the deal, CajCon: What you choose to perceive as a "temper tantrum" or "trying to teach the GOP a lesson" or "taking your marbles and going home" is in reality an attempt of some of us to use the ONLY REAL TOOL WE HAVE -- each our individual vote -- to CHANGE THE COURSE OF THE GOP. As long as Republicans vote for statists and liberals, statists and liberals will stay the course to disaster.
To you, it's a "temper tantrum." To me, it's the dirty, courageous, desperate work of people who understand that hard decisions have to me made in order to change course -- that RISKS have to be taken. There is zero risk in voting for a statist liberal Republican -- statist liberalism wins and the GOP betrays that many more millions of Americans begging for a party that stands for LIMITED GOVERNMENT.
There is big risk in rejecting a liberal statist Republican even if it means the liberal statist Democrat wins -- but the pay-off if we WIN is profoundly for the good; the punishment if we lose has considerable silver lining, though people are in such an emotional panic that they refuse to see it. Four more years of Obama -- that is presuming Obama is the Dem nominee, which I think there's a good chance he won't be -- won't mean the end of America. It WILL mean a much more conservative Congress. It will mean a nation of people angrier than ever at a liberal media and vote fraud, and more clamoring for a GOP that actually stands for limited government because when it doesn't, it loses. Liberals have to cheat to win because if they didn't, they'd lose; liberals have to cheat to win becasue the majority of Americans reject liberalism.
Seems to me a lot of folks are in a panic, and panic makes people do stupid things.
In your panic, you want folks like wkwe to vote for a liberal statist, and you are too frightened and rabbit-headed to perceive that if the White House is occupied by a statist Republican for the next for to eight years, the Democrat that follows will make Obama look like nothing. Remember how we thought NO ONE could possibly be worse than Hillary? Well, if YOUR kind of flawed panic-stricken rationale for voting for statist liberals who are registered Republicans prevails, the result will be a progression where the next Dem is worse than Obama.
Be cool, think straight. Resist the temptation to accuse others who are thoughtfully considering risks, of engaging in "temper tantrums," because it only makes you look bad.
If usama can win against any republican still breathing then we are in so deep we can never recover in any case.
