The GOP party, currently being run by RINOs, has left him and the rest of us. It’s up to us to get it back. That’s what he’s trying to do. Bring it back to conservative. If you lose the conservatives in the party, you might as well become part of the left. We need Cruz and those like him to right the ship.
The republican Party left mark Levin. I listen to Mark Levin and the Republican Party is no longer Conservative - It has become an extension of the Obamass Administration.
<>Levin should go the extra inch and publicly declare he is no longer a Republican and that he no longer speaks for Republicans.
He never claimed to speak for the GOP.
He needs to find, or create, a party that represents his views, his philosophy, his style, his tone, his approach. <>
The author is stuck in the rut of thinking any party alone can undo a century of progressive rot. Levin is a patriot who puts his country above party, something very few in DC or the Commentariat class are willing to do.

Read the whole article, it’s a defi against Levin and amounts to an invitation to FOAD.
I’m with Mark!
Nowhere in the piece does Wehner attempt define what the Republican party stands for in order to dispute any of Levin's characterizations. I doubt Wehner stands alone in this obvious deficit. Can any GOPe/RINO define within any degree of precision what the current 'republican' party stands for?
Short of some sly semantics, any attempt to define the current 'republican' party platform would find it difficult, nay impossible to illustrate any distinction from the progressive left platform.
Current platforms from both political parties amount to advertisements for votes for government entitlements.
There was a time, not so long ago - at least within my lifetime - when taking responsibility and personal pride in one's abilities prevented one from accepting such entitlements. There was a degree of 'shame' and 'humiliation' associated with dependency.
Current political platforms devalue those common traits. Pride in accomplishments is equated with undeserved 'privilege' and shamed in Orwellian animal farm fashion.
It's apparent Wehner and his political ilk's comprehension of Orwell's work as an instruction manual. Is it any surprise Wehner and his GOPe/RINO brethren salivate as they follow their political recipe from the book "To Serve Man"?
The author offers not one word of refutation of any of it.
No hint of "yeah, you're right, we have to change."
Instead, he sullenly says, "hit the road, Mark."
Mark Levin would be better (and his blood pressure would certainly be lower) if he were free of the GOP. And a few people might argue that the GOP would be better if it were free of him.
Telling.
I mailed back my republican registration card when they re-elected boehner the last time.
Every conservative should leave the GOP.
I listened to Mark the other night and I’d have to say that I don’t know what took him so long. The RNC has become so predictable that they play us over and over every election. I praise God for Cruz, Mike Lee, Jeff Sessions and a few others, but the rest of them leave me feeling there is no hope. Not that there ever is any hope in a political solution, just that you want to see a greater number of these people who see the problem, understand the base wants a return to Constitutional government and work hard to do their job. What we see from so many is the LIES. Yes, they are “promises”, but lest we forget, they are bald-faced lies they never intended to keep.
Peter Wehner ... also know as Peter Weiner. Is this a joke?
Mark’s monologue struck a chord with a lot of listeners. He is the tip of the iceberg, and the GOP is in heap-big trouble with its base.
Well, hmmmm.
Where is Mr.Wehner’s commentary on John McCain calling conservatives “tea party hobbits” and “little people of Middle-earth”?
What about Mitch McConnel and his comments: “I think we are going to crush them everywhere” “I don’t think they are going to have a single nominee anywhere in the country”
What about John Boehner and his comments (and sounds): “lack all credibility” “using our Congressmen and the American people for their own goals” ( as if! those nasty TEA Party folk should know their place!)
There are many, many examples of the GOPe attacking conservatives and I don’t recall Mr.Wehner’s comments on THAT. Oh no, we must never say negative things about or betters, right, King George? Piss off.
Establishment RePEWblicans, be smug AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Right on, O great one!! Take the extra inch and leave the Whigs behind. They survive only by our votes and our money. No amount of working from within will save the Whigs. They have gone over to the dark side.
It’s useless to complain to the Whig Senators and Representatives - THEY DON’T CARE. Unless we defund them now, they’ll repeat the lies next time. I’m not buying it.
In six years, upstarts destroyed the Whigs and relegated them to the dustbin of history. With no internet. With no mass mailings. With no “branding of candidates”. SECOND PARTY NOW!! SECOND PARTY NOW!! SECOND PARTY NOW!! SECOND PARTY NOW!!
It's a show, people, it's just a radio show. That's all it is. Time to put away childish things.
Yeah, that’s the ticket...further dilute the conservatives by weeding them out of the main body. Then we can whine some more about how there’s no conservatives in the Party.
