I Hate Republicans--A Disgusting Fit of Pique

Creative Minority Report ^ | 9/14/2010 | Patrick Archibold

My only point is to emphasize that we must fight these "Boss Tweeds" (great description of them!) from WITHIN the party and not march out in a huff and create our own.

True.

I've reached the point though, where after they do everything they can to sabotage the conservative candidate and get their RINO in as the nominee that I'll say "All is forgiven. You can count on my support.".

[McGavin999]

I would love for the republicans to take the house (they control the purse strings) but I would be quite content with us not gaining the senate. I would rather we continue to cleanse the party of those who betray us. I would rather have a full house and senate ride in with us in 2012.

[Windflier]

If the TEA party thing doesn’t work, the next step won’t be political. I hope everyone realizes that.

I've understood that for a long time, now. The current mood of the people can be defined as a stage of rebellion. Someone recently called it "pre-revolutionary".

The people are angry, but are still trying to work within the system, at the moment. If that fails, no force on earth will stop the people from naturally, and organically moving to the next stage of rebellion.

This suddenly obvious schism between the people and the establishment Republican party is something that has been in the making for a very long time. It points to the fact that the people are in a battle with what's been called the "ruling class", who have hijacked our political system to further their own ends. It doesn't matter whether they're Democrat or Republican, they're secretly all on the same team, and are allied against the "country class".

It remains to be seen how noisy this fight is going to get. The entrenched power elite won't willingly give up their position of command and control over us and our institutions. Witness Karl Rove on Hannity last night. He is the very face of what we're up against.

As I've said many times, a small, but powerful elite don't stand a chance against a people who have withdrawn their consent to be governed by them any longer. It's only a matter of time before this growing resistance movement achieves its stated goal of restoring the republic to its Founding Basics, but it could get very messy along the way.

I agree. I once believed that giving to the national or regional party was a good way to buttress the GOP. I now see that they are part of the problem. Did the official statement include the names of the supporting individuals? The establishment GOP should have the guts to sign their work so we can remember those names when it comes time to offer our support.

Semper Fi Devil Dog

Why is the Republican establishment so anti-O’Donnell?

O'Donnell is a Constitutional Conservative, something the RINOs have never been and never will be.

[Wissa]

I've reached the point though, where after they do everything they can to sabotage the conservative candidate and get their RINO in as the nominee that I'll say "All is forgiven. You can count on my support.".

Sheesh. Should be I'll NO LONGER say "All is forgiven..."

[kevao]

And if we complain, the response would be, "what's your complaint? your people are in charge."

Actually, for the longest time they've been telling us, If you don't like Liberal Republicans, then elect conservative candidates in the primaries. Well, we are doing just that, and the establishment is apoplectic.

[meadsjn]

Do you think the Tea Party will eventually split off as a truly conservative party? I consider myself a conservative much more than a republican.

No! We are the ones who adhere to the Republican Party platform. It is our party. We built it. We funded it. We have fought to save the GOP's heart and soul.

The small handful of RINO hacks who have had control for the past few decades are NOT the Republican Party. They laugh at conservatives and the Republican Party platform. They are the ones who need to go away.

[kevao]

If we're going down into destruction, I want the correct party to be blamed.

Precisely. The RINO congressional majorities in the 2000s made a real mess of things. And who gets blamed? Conservatism!

[Hemingway's Ghost]

Ok, I admit that I don’t know much about Christine O’Donnell. What is it that makes the Republican establishment so concerned about her honesty and character?

She's not into masturbation, that's for sure.

[kevao]

Thank you for Obamacare.

And I suppose Castle was going to lead the charge to repeal Obamacare? If so, then maybe he should have said so. He might have won last night.

[workerbee]

Here’s what the GOP wants you to believe:

O’Donnell:
Filed a lawsuit, asked for money
Said she won 3 counties when she didn’t
Thinks Castle had people follow her
Something about had/didn’t have a masters degree

MAKES HER WORSE THAN THIS

Castle:
Voted YES on TARP
Voted YES on Cap and Trade
Voted YES on Cash for Clunkers
Voted YES on the auto bailout
Voted YES on bailing out Fannie and Freddie
Voted YES on SCHIP (w/ tax increase)
Voted YES to increase taxes on oil and gas companies
Voted YES to increase the minimum wage
Voted NO to open up ANWR
Voted YES on the pork-infested 2005 Highway bill
Voted NO to restrict eminent domain abuse
Voted YES to increase funding for PBS
Voted YES on the Medicare drug benefit
Voted YES on No Child Left Behind
Voted YES on McCain-Feingold
Voted NO to end milk subsidies
Voted NO on waiving Davis-Bacon labor rules
Voted YES on expanding research to more embryonic stem cell lines.
Voted YES on allowing human embryonic stem cell research.
Voted NO on restricting interstate transport of minors to get abortions.
Voted YES on making it a crime to harm a fetus during another crime.
Voted YES on banning partial-birth abortion except to save mother’s life.
Voted NO on forbidding human cloning for reproduction & medical research.
Voted NO on funding for health providers who don’t provide abortion info.
Voted NO on banning Family Planning funding in US aid abroad.
Voted YES on federal crime to harm fetus while committing other crimes.
Voted YES on banning partial-birth abortions.
Voted NO on barring transporting minors to get an abortion.

CAN YOU SPELL P-E-R-S-P-E-C-T-I-V-E?

It seems to me we have been pretty successful this cycle so far. I see no reason to think that trend won’t continue. The Republican leadership right now is mis-labeled as RINOs. They aren’t RINOs, they are Republicans, and they are acting like wishy washy, go along to get along politicians because that is what Republicans are. Keep voting for the likes of Rubio and O’Donnell and in about four years you will see the Jim DeMints of the party in charge. Then the Republican party will stand for Conservative principles again and traitors to that cause can be rightfully labeled RINO.

[SumProVita]

I pretty much understand the attacks now....but I still want the proof that makes them unjustified. I want to be sure of her basic character.

(As I said, I would never have voted for the RINO....on the abortion issue alone!)

[MEGoody]

And I suppose Castle was going to lead the charge to repeal Obamacare?

I didn't say that. But if McCain had won instead of Obama, we wouldn't have Obamacare, would we?

[kevao]

But McCain didn’t win. And McCain *knew* he wasn’t going to win. He never let on that he had no interest in winning. Why else did he save $21 million (!!!) of his presidential election fund to use in his primary race against Hayworth? RINO McCain took us all for a ride.

[MEGoody]

But McCain didn’t win.

True, he didn't. I wonder how many voted for Obama instead of McCain because McCain was a RINO.

[kevao]

I wonder how many voted for Obama instead of McCain because McCain was a RINO.

I wonder how many voted for Obama because McCain told them Obama was a swell guy and that "we have nothing to fear from an Obama presidency"?
