yea I notice and it drives me nuts.
Republicans take notice of the obama Govt, and the other elitist types to save their own seats, they don’t want to rick the boat because they might lose their seat and so they go along with immigrations, spying etc
Seeing republicans like King this morning being questioned and trying to tell us that spying on us has saved maybe thousands of lives and yet can’t give any details or we stopped the car bomb attack and then when told it was not because of the spying he just said he disagrees and then moved on.
The day I found that out was the day she was dead to me.
My guess: The GOPe have performed this political calculus and determined there are more votes to be had by going after amnesty and losing yours (mine and others) and gaining hispanics than the reverse.
Think about it from their perspective. For the most part (99% of them) all they care about is getting elected. That means votes. By and large, they’ll do anything, say anything to do that.
If they’re ignoring you and I but pandering to the hispanics by going for amnesty, that’s why.
“...we need a party that will fight for freedom on all issues, not just fiscal.”
I think that’s the Libertarian Party.
” But rich businessmen don’t care. Big Republican donors — and their campaign consultants — just want to make money. They don’t care about Hispanics, and they certainly don’t care what happens to the country. If the country is hurt, I don’t care, as long as I am doing better! This is the very definition of treason.”
Also defines Karl Rove, their front man.
Not that anyone cares but I am no longer a republican and will not support a republican for office EVER again, they do not seem to understand the truth.
” This rings. Pretty good ridicule. “
Yeah, but most on this thread just want attack Ann(who deserves it most of the time). This is a good explanation of Republican suicide (amnesty).
” Well she agrees with me that they are just stoopid rather than deliberately helping the rats.”
Some are deliberately helping the rats though.(Rubio,McCain)
There are lies, damm lies, and statistics which Annie cites an awful lot of here. Never trust the GOPe which Annie is s card carrying member. The truth is the Repuglican party is DOA, and all the RINOs killed it. Screw Rove, Juan McLame, Roodey Mc Romney, Hannity the cheerleader, and all the rest of the enablers.
The only hope for this country is for the American people to get up off the couch and take her back by the three boxes soap, ballot, and cartridge.
Could 2/3 of the states get together to nullify the immigration bill should it be passed? I don’t know if the Constitution allows for this?
Romney would have back-benched the conservative movement whereas Obama unites and strengthens it by providing a target-rich environment.
...I see...so it’s smart politics to run a sure loser so if your opponent happens to be a goofball, you can score a few points...ok...I’m certain that every person in the country who voted Romney had exactly that calculus in mind...
It’s called the give and sway of the electorate of independents that decides the elections.
...is that not treasonous talk here on FR? Hasn’t none other than Rush Limbaugh himself condemned the chasing of independent voters as vacuous and self defeating? Not saying your comment is untrue...just that it is a curiosity here in FR land...
Just look at the South once a bastion of Democrat politics now a swamp to the progressive minded.
...the South didn’t give and sway all that much...they voted as a block because of the long history of Democrat segregation...in the ‘60’s the Dem party policy plank changed, and became anathema to the Southern voter, and Pubs win by default...
Ted Cruz. Fine. Just fuck all those data mining anti-liberty federalists that are collecting data on all of us.......no one needs to be intercepting anything I send to anyone.
> “...I see...so it’s smart politics to run a sure loser so if your opponent happens to be a goofball, you can score a few points...ok...I’m certain that every person in the country who voted Romney had exactly that calculus in mind...”
You’re sure ***every person***? The GOPe could nominate a mannequin and still garner a substantial percentage of the vote.
Romney is a liberal and a liar who takes a R after his political persona. He would have taken the GOP for liberals just as a Snowe or a Spector. He would still have given us gay marriage, mandatory federally legislated healthcare, liberal judges, NSA monitoring all Americans and on and on. As Soros said there’s not much difference between Obama and Romney.
> “...is that not treasonous talk here on FR? Hasn’t none other than Rush Limbaugh himself condemned the chasing of independent voters as vacuous and self defeating? Not saying your comment is untrue...just that it is a curiosity here in FR land...”
We don’t chase the independents, we attract them. Because without them we come to a stalement at best with the democrats.
Your choice of words “FR land” is revealing. Conservatives outnumber others and are growing. You are not happy with that.
> “...the South didn’t give and sway all that much...they voted as a block because of the long history of Democrat segregation...in the ‘60’s the Dem party policy plank changed, and became anathema to the Southern voter, and Pubs win by default...”
Southerners vote republican by ***default***? That’s a laugh! I’m sure a lot of southerners would have something to say about that.
