:: Castigating Republicans as unreasonable rhetoricians interested only in pandering to their base ::
Uhhhh, Mr. Shapiro. This entire string of words WILL NOT RESONATE with the typical American voter.
What is “castigate”?
Who or what is a “rhetorician”?
What is “pander”?
What should I shoot myself in the foot to get someone’s attention?
NEVER play nice with today’s Democrats. They are no longer democrats of yore but progressive haters and liars. They can’t be trusted and are the enemy from within.
Nothing is going to ever change until Republicans learn that they have to stop being on defense all the time and actually start playing to win. That means taking it to your opponents, not backing down, and putting points on the board. Run over them and advance the ball down field any way you can.
The only thing I admire about Democrats is that they play to win. They get it.
They're playing 'prevent' again, and counting on voter revulsion with Obama. Exactly when they should be making the case for constitutionally grounded government. Tragic.
“... If the GOP will not work with Obama because they are cruel and nasty, the logic goes...”
Uhmmm. . .one side refuses to engage the other and stymies every single bill put before them.
As well, they regularly attempt to engage the opposition and at least get the conversation started.
No, it’s the Democrats who refuse, by any objective measure and observation, to work toward a mutually agreed solution.
Republicans are Wimps...and not just elected ones...as a precinct committee person I am trying to get help from Republican “neighbors” JUST to leave info on 2000 doorsteps...After handing @80 invites to free food & beverage party just to help me...Nothing...nada...one of neighbors said “I don’t get involved in that stuff”...WIMPY Republicans got us where we are and we will be at war on our soil because of them! /rant off
When will the conservatives stop calling the socialists/communists/ as democrats.
There are only a handful of democrats left in congress.-tom
I got to hand it to Nancy. She is already on the campaign trail for the next election. She knows this one is going to park her ass in the overflow lots, but she’s attacking republicans who haven’t even won their elections for destroying the country. Because she’s so extreme the media covers her and puts her quotes up for all to see. But she will ride this, repeating it constantly and as soon as there is a market set back or other problems arise she will be there claiming civilization is coming to an end and the only way out is to elect democrats.
She attacked Bush almost daily and Bush being a Republican he never fought back but she took the house and crammed health care down our throats. We need an attack dog that that just tell the truth, but with some heat on it. We need to hit the rats often, and hard. Hard enough that it gets peoples attention and gets printed. We have never had more to work with either.
The Democrats are copying the same tactics that Hitler used to take over Germany:
1. Focus the Public attention on a perceived enemy. The Democrats have outdone Hitler by segmenting the country and creating a monster for each group: Whites for Blacks; Rich for poor; Men for women; Corporations for workers; etc. Then the roll all the monsters into the Republican Party.
2. Make Government the center of your world. Control the country’s education; its heath care; use regulations to control food, drink, energy, and commerce.
3. Take away their self defense (Guns).
4. Control the Media and project onto your enemy every evil that your Party has enacted upon the population.
5. Eliminate competing organizations of influence: religion, Boy scouts, TEA party.
6. Control the masses with an ever larger and ever more militarized Police force.
The list goes on and on. When will the public wake up?
Democrats can’t handle the truth it’s why they never use it.
There’s no difference between Democrats and Republicans
Electing a Democrat is much better than electing a RINO
Supporting Harry Reid is what all true conservative should do
We’re better off with the Democrats in charge
Do these statements sound familiar? They should, they often appear on Free Republic even though polls show that only about 1% of Republicans plan to vote for Democrats. Are all of these people members of this forum? Or are they just blowing off steam?
To win the country back, we need to be as mean as the libs say we are.
But many of the RINOs still do. Get rid of them.
Republicans are democrats.
Rather than fighting back against Democrats, our GO(uniParty)e attacks conservatives, with strength.
They have outed their true nature, and they do not represent me, our Constitution, or America’s heart.
George ‘Dubya’ Bush reached out to democrats and they crapped all over him and pretty well destroyed his adminiatration.
Democrats are like other terrorists and enemies of the US Constitution - the only thing they respect is power.
They don’t respect civility or attempts at bipartisanship.
They see it as a sign of weakness.
