“Man, you have to take your ‘Taliban’ hat off. We’re in a war here against a far greater enemy, and you’re worried about ‘Vichy republicans’. We would’ve had a tough time winning WWII with this type of thinking.”
I disagree. The far greater enemy is, and has been since time immemorial, the enemy within.
How can we defeat Obama when there are Democrat collaborators within the GOP actively subverting the election? Really, why did Dick Cheney have to say *anything* about Palin? Where’s the 11th Commandment when the topic is RINOs attacking conservatives? Hmmm?
The reason you see old farts like Cheney yapping about Palin is because THEY’RE AFRAID OF HER and they’re afraind that she’ll do to the Old Boys Club in DC what she did to the corrupt Republicans in Juneau. They hate her because they know they can’t control her or buy her off and they’re AFRAID.
And people like you are enabling them when you passively sit back and let them savage actual conservatives only to object when the conservatives fight back.
Just the same way the Vichy French objected when the Resistance fought back against their Nazi masters.
I find in Samuel Adams my answer to those Republicans who would rather compromise with an enemy than defeat him:
“Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say ‘what should be the reward of such sacrifices?’ Bid us and our posterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship and plough, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth? If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!”
Getting rid of the Obama bunch will give us a slightly less dangerous GOPe bunch that we will have to horsewhip like we did with BushCo on Amnesty!
I totally agree. I want to see these people gone also... McConnell, Graham, etc.. - but continuing to debate the primary battle at this moment - does no service to the greater battle before us in November. We conservatives lost in the primaries, we are stuck with Romney, just as we were stuck with McCain in 2008, but we still fought - yes I know Palin was in it - and it's the only reason I and many got enthused - but, the VP does nothing in terms of policy - so we were still pulling for McCain to win it. This battle is even more important because we have now LOST 4 YEARS and things are EVEN WORSE.
