If one supports gay “marriage” then one can’t support freedom because gay rights activists seek to impose their lifestyle on people who don’t agree it.

Is Enzi really a Conservative? I question that.

Enzi is more conservative than Liz Cheney.

Entitled to? Zero. That applies to Cheney, too, you know.

Agreed. Every person trying to gain power over his or her fellow citizen should be regarded with suspicion and loathing.

Enzi has strayed occasionally. He angered anti-tax absolutists in his party by supporting parochial legislation to allow states to collect sales taxes for online purchases.

FWIW, he only recently joined the "Tea Party" after being challenged by Liz.......Where was he back in 2010?

I can't see much difference between Enzi and Cheney other than the fact that he's already an 18 year career Washington suckup.......

Time to finish cleaning house of all these OLD bastards and send a fresh crop of youngsters to Washington who can actually relate to the rest of us.......

Yes, she’s very, very liberal.

Where's your proof in that statement?

Enzi is not a conservative, even on the homosexual issue. He was one of the only Republicans to support letting homosexuals donate blood again. As one Freeper noted, “you first, senator Enzi”

Unfortunately, we might be stuck with him, because Cheney is further left.

National Journal:

The Senate's Most Conservative Member: Ever Heard of Him?

Enzi is 8th with an 87.8 score.

Liz has ties to DC that go back longer than that. Her husband, her dad, etc.

I guess the “rest of you” “youngsters” look with fawning favor upon state-endorsed fudgepacking. As does Liz.

So who's been influenced most by the Washington lobbyists, Enzi, an 18 year U.S. Senator or Liz Cheney, who hasn't ever held an elected office?

I want people who can relate to the Constitution, Bill of Rights and America’s heritage

"Wyoming is so deep red that the winner of the GOP primary will sail through the general, "

The only "red" county (0bama majority) in Wyoming is Teton County.

"Home" of Cheney.

See post 18, Cheney is as hard left as they come, in some most important ways.

Influenced more by lobbyists would be Enzi. But I said her “ties” go back further. She’s as much an “insider” as anyone in DC. And you might want to check out her husband.

Sorry to say that they’re all beholden to special interests now.

>> Like McConnell, Enzi is an old school beltway dealmaker

And Cheney is a “new school” anything-goes faggot lover.

Clue in. Once Cheney perceives that mexicans will get her re-elected, she’ll be pro-amnesty.

Once she perceives that Sandra Fluke chicks will give her a boost in the polls, she’ll be pro-abort.

Once she perceives that mooselimbs will give her that needed edge, she’ll become anti Israel, anti Christian.

Whatever it takes for the politically ambitious carpetbagger is what the carpetbagger will do. She has no moral compass.

I can’t wait to go after Liz Cheney in ads. I am so sick of the despicable Bush Clan.

I would support Liz if she ran in a state like Virginia. She is running in a state that already has a conservative Senator...this is not helpful.

She will not get my money.

I would not support her under any circumstances. I am tired... I am done with “compromising” my beliefs.

Yep.

It was sickening when GHW Bush went to the White House a few weeks ago and kissed up to Obama, an avowed enemy of the USA.
