Obviously you missed the hundreds of threads with the Freeper left all complaining about people voting for conservatives rather than liberal Republicans.
If your or anyone’s opinion is that Liberal Republicans are better than Liberal dems when their records are mirrors of each other, then yes, my principles are superior since Liberal Republicans are every bit the evil that liberal democrats are.
The founders did not set up a system to elect someone ‘no matter what’. They set up the system to elect principled (as in constitutional abiding) people to run the country/govern according to the constitution. Liberal Repubs do the polar opposite of that. If you disagree, so be it. Doesn’t change the reality or the truth.
You just made my case.
You might as well try to justify the meaning of is as try to identify with certainty the liberal republican, and the non liberal on any particular subject at any point in time.
You and yours own Obama, and if Herr Hitler was the choice?
Maybe that would be enough, and the “people” would finally see it your way?
I don’t think I missed any threads it was the usual cast of those wanting to ignore the reality of Obama.
Obviously we are at an impasse on the issue so we will have to agree to disagree, but I’m betting this is going to come up again a year from now during the next presidential election campaign.
In my view, they set up a system where with no political parties Americans elected electors, and they elected a president. That is called a republic.
We now have a system in which multiple parties put up their candidate, Americans elect that candidate, electors rubber stamp it. That’s almost a pure democracy.
I prefer voting in my portion of the state of Ohio for a known, extremely competent, patriotic elector who will join with others to choose a stellar person to be this nation’s chief executive.
So I looked at Rubio’s ACU rating and it was 100%. Maybe down a bit since he went Amnesty on us. If I understand correctly, unless you score a 100% on the ACU, you are a liberal Republican. I would probably go under 90% since as the minority party, things such as justice votes and “we won't win regardless so might as well vote on the rat bill to get the Gibmedat’s for our constituency” are throwaways.
I think it is wrong comparing someone like McConnell (89%) to Durbin(8%) and calling McConnel a liberal. Do I disagree on many of McConnel’s positions? Sure do. However on something as important as Coal, whose vote do you want, McConnel's or Grimes? What we do know is McCain, Snow, Murkowski and a couple of others who vote with the rats 60-70% of the time shouldn't be there, period. Then we have 5-10 who are 95%-100% Conservatve votes, then everyone else. The everyone else goes where the wind is blowing.
