Amen, brother.
Bottom line - you get what you vote for. Keep voting for stealth Democrats, and that's exactly what the political class will continue to serve up to us.
That's exactly what happened in the last two elections. In 2008, enough decent Americans surrendered their solemn votes to the traitorous cabal in the RNC, that they felt rewarded, and gave us more of the same in 2012.
The big brains in the RNC then performed an 'autopsy' to figure out why we lost again, and came to the conclusion that they'd better widen the 'tent' and double down on their leftward slide.
The morons can't see that they're driving their base away from the party. They're watching the Democrats win, and are drawing the wrong conclusion, i.e., that they're winning elections because of their political philosophy. That's only partially true. The Dems win elections because their candidates don't stray off the party reservation, and that's why their base overwhelmingly supports them.
It's never occurred to the dim bulbs running our party that if their candidates did the same as the opposition, that is, stand firmly on the principles their base endorses, that they'd win too.
I think many people just do not want to accept facts in evidence and so, get stuck in the denial stage of the 5 stages of (political) grief.
The GOP wants to go left. They WANT it.
If I was athe head of a group that I saw would WILLINGLY OR NOT, vore for whatever I fed them, I’d feed them whatever I wanted, confident that even though they may bitch, I’d still get my way.
Conservatives need to read the 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene and The Prince by Machiavelli before casting another vote for anyone...READ AND UNDERSTAND.
Lastly, Freepers need to get off the sidelines and fight back ONLINE against the GOP shills, the mockery and the BS just as they do in real life because the internet IS real life. Things here translate to real world opinion....Lurkers, this means YOU.
I get that people do not want to get hit with the truckloads of horsesXit that people like you and I do for standing our ground. I get that. But they no longer have a choice. It’s pretty hard to be a patriot when you sit silently and allow the propagandists on web forums to direct the opinions of the country.
And for those that think what we say here is compartmentalized, ask Dan Rather what he thinks of Freeper ‘opinion’.
