Yep, this nails it.

Mouse gonads to fight Democrat Marxist/socialists, but brass balls to fight me. Bastards.

“Instead of blowing Obamacare out of the water while they have a chance, the Republican Establishment attacks its base. How unbelievably stupid.”

It’s only stupid if you assume the gop is an opposition political party. If on the other hand you assume that the gop is merely as a sort of trojan horse against conservatives, then it’s not stupid at all. Pretty astute move if you look at it in that light.

“...it should be clear to all why I have for a few decades cautioned my many friends to NOT SEND THE RNC A NICKEL.”

Well it is clear, but it won’t matter much. The dimes and nickels the gop faction of the uniparty receives from conservatives pales in comparison to the millions they receive from their political cronies. Sad to say, our money doesn’t amount to enough for them to care.

Sorry to see that my rep, Chris Collins, is on the list of this bunch of RINO's. No suprise to see that Amo Houghton is one of the Grand Poobah's of this group, though. Amo is a flaming a-hole from way back, but then again, a pretty fair number of northeastern GOP types fall into this category, sadly.

“NOPe to GOPe”

The gop faction of the uniparty relies on a time tested formula: be liberal, but slightly more conservative than their opponent. Then they simply challenge us with’...so what are ya gonna do, vote for the ‘rat?’ And we’re pretty much stuck because conservatives don’t tend to vote strategically. Sometimes the moonbat in the short term is less of a threat to us than the republican who can never quite get around to supporting conservative issues.

“Your party’s establishment never had any intention of actually stopping obamacare. The insurance companies who bribe them and the dems aren’t paying those bribes to get rid of a law that funnels billions in subsidies to them and forces everyone to buy their product at gun point for whatever price they want to charge.”

Yup.

“This group is a Democrat front group.”

What’s the difference between that and a gop front group?

It’s very gratifying that none of our South Carolina Reps are on that RINO list.

Here’s a ready made list of those who need to be primaried next year.

Get busy if your Rep is on the list.

This guy doesn’t represent what we want the GOP outside inside of Washington DC to be. Wouldn’t be grand if the GOP focused on attacking Democrats and big dysfunctional government. People like this guy are the problem. It keeps what we would like for the GOP message to be, from being clear and in stark contrast to the progressive left.

There. Fixed it for you.

The GOP cannot attack the very political mentality (big government) that it embraces in "representatives" such as Romney, McCain, Christie, and the like, folks whom I, a limited government Christian conservative, are expected to vote for even when they have an active record of going against every major political principle I want to vote FOR.

Voting Republican has become a crap shoot. Unlike Democrats, who know exactly what they're voting for, Republicans really have to hold their breaths (if not their noses) when voting their own ticket. They really have no idea whether or not their guy will defend the constitution and fight for limited government.

That has to change to avoid the otherwise inevitable appearance of a strong-enough-to-throw-elections third party.

There is only one party in Washington: The Re-Election Party, dedicated to the personal enrichment of its members at taxpayer expense.

We need TERM LIMITS. Article V.

Thanks. Yes you are right it is a crap shoot and I think we deserve to be able to vote for people that we can count on beyond election day.

The GOP has been controlled by socialist state and local government politicians, employees and administrators for a long time.
