RNC ELDERS DETERMINE CONSERVATIVE 'PURITY' COSTS GOP ELECTIONS

The Republican National Committee’s internal evaluators argued that true conservatism loses the Republican Party elections in a new report released Monday. The evaluators were charged by chairman Reince Priebus with helping the GOP reach a larger voter base. A copy of their report was obtained by Breitbart News.

On page 54 of the report, authors Henry Barbour, Sally Bradshaw, Ari Fleischer, Zori Fonalledas and Glenn McCall argue that true conservatism hurts the Republican Party in elections. “Third-party groups that promote purity are hurting our electoral prospects,” they wrote.

That entire section was based on quotes from MSNBC host Joe Scarborough in a column the Wall Street Journal’s Peggy Noonan wrote last year.

great so you want LSD Heroin legal and you wonder why conservatives are fed up of libertarians and their nutty ways,

Atually why are you on herem you;re not conservative, , what does the liberal party not want you because they lke taxes even though you ae a liberal , actually more liberal than many liberals I;ve met on social issues.

Next you;ll be saying get rid of age laws, and weaken defence right?

The Republicans hold the House and 30 out of 50 state governments. This horse manure from the scumbag GOP/RNC establishment is designed to try to put a boot on the throat of genuine conservatives. Good luck with that, you slick scum.

[Lancey Howard]

By the way, RNC scum, how has “going liberal” been working out for you with McCain and Romney?

[Windflier]

Now would be the time for Conservatives to break away and form their own party.

No. We the people built the Republican party. It belongs to us - not a cabal of spineless traitors, sell-outs, and crony capitalists. It's time we pointed them out in public, and marked them for rapid ejection.

"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

[Windflier]

We are rancid with apologists right here on FR that scream ‘traitor’ and question the ‘patriotism’ of anyone refusing to keep empowering our political problem and it’s mad dash to the left.

Heh...ain't that the truth. You'd almost think the RNC actually paid stealth operatives to post yellow-bellied liberal butt squish on Free Republic to divide and demoralize real conservatives and Tea Party patriots.

Wait --- you don't think they'd really do that, do you? < snort >

At this point, anyone willing to support the GOP is every bit the danger to America that the Dems/Libs are. Because they are supporting the same things via the GOP.

We've got to identify the DIABLOs (Democrat In All But Label Only), then start loudly demanding that they exit the field. We're gonna lose the whole shooting match if we don't eject these sell-outs. They're the worst sort of poison, and they're literally killing us. Worse than any avowed enemy could ever do.

Greetings, manc.

It never does any good to “debate” with libertaltarians. Sort of like trying to teach pigs to sing. They never learn, and everyone just gets aggravated.

Just let them smoke their dope in peace....

//////

There are actually so few libertarians that all they ever manage to do is help Dems get elected. They’re just spoilers...probably what they want anyway.

[little jeremiah]

DIABLOS - that’s good.

[Windflier]

DIABLOS - that’s good.

I saw it in a post here sometime back, and thought it was perfect. Written with a lower case s, though.

[little jeremiah]

In fact I hate them more, as they are “supposed” to be the opposition of the leftists pukes.

[JustSayNoToNannies]

Come round here and noone wants that turd poking agenda, weaker defence, drugs

But folks round there do want drug profits hyperinflated to tens of billions of dollars and channeled into criminal and terrorist hands as the War on Drugs does?

Simple answer yes or no do you want heroin, LSD legal

Yes - all criminalizing them has done is enrich criminals and put said criminals in charge of keeping them away from kids.

great so you want LSD Heroin legal and you wonder why conservatives are fed up of libertarians and their nutty ways,

"Nutty" is deliberately enriching criminals and putting said criminals in charge of keeping them away from kids.

and di you want those who sell those drugs to open their shops anywhere

No, I support local zoning regulations.

Next you;ll be saying get rid of age laws, and weaken defence right?

Wrong twice more. You never tire of being wrong about me, do you?

[A CA Guy]

“The RNC runs away from its own base! ...seeks moderates & liberals to win elections. “

Trying to imitate what it takes to win these people will still lead them to a loss since if they wanted liberals they could still vote Democrat.
It is the Republican party's lack of desire to be the OPPOSITION party that has them losing, not conservatives.

[JustSayNoToNannies]

They never learn

You're unable to teach - all your arguments have been repeatedly exposed as devoid of logic and fact.

Just let them smoke their dope in peace....

And your logical and factual emptiness is always eventually joined by the moral emptiness of sleazy personal attacks. What do you think the original Jeremiah would have said about lying and bearing false witness?

[little jeremiah]

You’re a raving lunatic.

Have a nice day.

At this point, anyone willing to support the GOP is every bit the danger to America that the Dems/Libs are. Because they are supporting the same things via the GOP.

True, but the party acolytes will flagellate conservatives with shame and guilt tactics to vote for their next annointed one and accept their "outreach" strategy to the bitter, LOSING end.

Hi LJ, hope you’re well and doing good, .

You’re exactly right about them, they remind me of the spoilt child who wants their own way.\They want to infiltrate the GOP and yet have more views in tune with the far left.

Why the GOP puts up with these dopes is beyond me, and giving them a platform to have them put our party down and state how we should change is pure stupid

[manc]

it;s just proving your point LJ, trying to have a debate is pointless, why they don;t go to their own sites and party just shows how they can;t understand how conservatives are fed up of some of their far left views, so far left that even many Dems don;t go with that they want

[N. Theknow]

Pure conservative gives you 8 years of greatness in Ronald Reagan with landslide wins and a carry-over landslide win in 1988, the Congress in 1994 and the House in 2010.

12 years of wishy-washy Dem-Lite gives you 16 years of Clinton/Obama/Pelosi and Reid and two nail-biter elections over despicable jackasses that Ronald Reagan would have beaten like red-headed, rented, step mules.
