Same trend. Doesn't mean let's actively work to re-elect the Marxist who has openly declared war on the nation,

“Same trend...”

Sort of makes my point. The Republican Party is following a “moderating” principle when it comes to its candidates, thus leaving conservatives a “lesser of two evils” option. In 1992, I was displeased with Bush, Sr. but was urged to vote for him (”To not do so is to vote for their guy.”) In 1996, I was given the choice of Dole (”...or would you rather that their guy got elected?!”) 2000, it was Jr. (and again in 2004 - which was the only time I felt anywhere near persuaded that my vote was properly cast). In 2008, I was given McCain. How in the heck did he rise to the top? And was Palin thrown in as an appeasement? Now, it’s Romney and I’m faced once more with, “My Gosh! You can’t give it to Obama—he’ll destroy the country (as if it already hasn’t been destroyed by...get ready...the Republican Party. They’ve been offering one moderate after another after another, merely slowing down the decline of our country, not willing to alter its path. Bush, Jr. did more to bloat government than any other president—and, now, we see the wisdom of his judiciary choices—Constitutionally challenged compromiser who has exploded the power of government to mandate our freedoms away.

I don’t advocate anything other than a total ouster of all incumbents (something I’ve believed necessary for some time now). Every last one of them need to be term-limited...THIS NOVEMBER! Their guy, your guy, every guy. This needs to be done both in the House and in the Senate. Keep turning over this dirt till there is nothing left of what has caused the problems. Big interests can back their bought and paid for incumbents, but WE THE PEOPLE must vote them out again and again, until those folks see they are wasting their money.

We need outsiders. Period. No one associated with Washington must get in. We have to take our government back from those who control it (and that ain’t us right now). I’m tired of congress folks voting themselves stuff (that’s my money!) I’m tired of congress folks voting on bills before reading them (that’s my freedom their legislating). I’m tired of congress folks being unresponsive to phone campaigns that demand, “Don’t pass Obamacare,” then voting for it anyhow. That’s my life they’re messing with. Everything they vote for should require their immediate participation—I didn’t vote them exempt status. I voted for them to represent ME not THEMSELVES (or their friends).

I say, vote every last congress critter we can out (all the House, as many of the Senate that are up this year). Send the message. Keep sending the message. I want 435 conservative congress folk in their this Fall (I’m willing to settle for a veto-proof majority.) Then, who cares who is president. He can’t do a thing. I want congress folk who are going to impeach when a president over-steps the limitations of the executive branch placed on it by the Constitution. Period. I want justice. I want freedom. I want my GOD-GIVEN rights protected from scoundrels, usurpers, traitors, liars, and those who do not understand our Constitution. Would Bush, Sr., Dole, Bush, Jr., McCain, Romney have/have had the courage to do this for me, I would have been more inclined to trust in the Republican Party (and we wouldn’t be posting back and forth in quite this way.)
