	"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Ted Cruz Ping!

If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.

Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!

[cripplecreek]

LaTourette doesn’t have the man-quipment to admit that he’s a democrat.

[JRandomFreeper]

"I wish he would stop being a Republican and leave the party. That would be a nice thing."

LOL! Cruz is doing what Cruz was elected to do, and he'll be there for at least 7 more years. He's not going away, however much they wish for it.

Former Rep. Steven LaTourette is apparently a GOPe hack.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

I’m all for that.

I know, I know, just saying.

Head of GOP Anti-Tea Party Group: Ted Cruz Should Leave Party

The longer we delay, the harder it will be.

Ted Cruz SHOULD leave the GOP - and so should all patriots.

[cuban leaf]

Well, I’ve said for a year now that the REAL RINOs are the conservatives. The republican party is now the socialist party and the democrat party is the communist party.

[b4its2late]

Hey LaTourette:

[Howie66]

Seems to me that the GOP Establishment Pukes are more closely aligned with the RAT Party than they are with real Americans. Not that this comes as any surprise to me at all.

[paltz]

LaTourette is a Democrat who had the luxury of having an “R” next to his name when the Obamacare bill came up for a vote in the House, so Pelosi couldn’t arm twist him to vote otherwise..

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I've got a better idea... all the GOPe RINOs should leave the party and start their own party of "moderates."

Their slogan could be "We'll give you almost as much free stuff as the Democrats."

[hadaclueonce]

Steven LaTourette, who?

Steven LaTourette, who?

Thanks for this thread.

To all Republicans In Name Only:

The Liberal Democrats are on the run due to their unanimous support of Obamacare, and are not currently effectively attacking us.

We will attack them after the Congressional RINO Leadership is subdued.

In 2010 we sent Republicans to Congress to abolish Obamacare.

For that historic grassroots effort we have been repaid by consistent Cave-Ins, betrayals and cheap verbal abuse from the RINO Leadership at the GOP Convention, in Congress and on TV.

Now the Congressional RINO Leadership has launched an an all out attack on us.

Fine! BRING IT! If you attack us, we will attack you back!

We will fight those who refuse to fight Obama, and we will fight those we chose to fight us.

RINOs fit both of those categories to a “TEA.”

BTW, the TEA Party is THE SILENT MAJORITY of old, with a voice, so prepare for a long battle.

Enjoy the long battle ahead, RINOs.

It is all about Obamacare, RINOs.

The RINOs have failed for 5 long years, and now it our turn to ABOLISH Obamacare in 2014.

[Gay State Conservative]

Mr LaTourette had better be careful of what he wishes for.Cuomo The Lesser has openly demanded that Republicans leave New York and now LaTourette wants Cruz to leave the party.A message to Mr LaTourette...”Sir,I am so “Middle America” it would make your head spin.I’m neither brilliant nor stupid,rich nor poor,saintly nor utterly evil.But if Cruz leaves it’s likely that I’ll leave with him.Sounds like you’ve been making far too much of *my* hard earned money for far too long”.

[Servant of the Cross]

If the quisling Steve LaTourette represents 'the Party', then Senator Cruz can easily answer as did Ronald Reagan in a different way many years ago ....

I didn't leave the Party, they left me (and all of the limited government fiscal/social/strong defense conservative voters who form the BASE of the Republican Party).

[Darren McCarty]

Steve, I’m not going to be lectured by some asshole who cheats on his wife with his employees.

[KosmicKitty]

Think for a minute what would happen if Cruz did leave the party. (I believe he won’t, but humor me here.)

How does the GOP deal with the lose if the Conservative vote, because Conservatives will follow Cruz.

How does the GOP differ from the Democrats to the uninformed voter?

Anyway, looks like Kabuki theater to me.

[pgkdan]

Brilliant idea!! Let Cruz leave and take millions and millions of dollar donating, phone banking, enthusiastic conservatives with him! I’ve already left and would love the opportunity to join Cruz’s new party.

[McGruff]

"I don't think he is I am a Republican, to tell you the truth,"

[One_who_hopes_to_know]

A clear case of LaTourette's syndrome
