No Longer a Republican
Townhall ^ | Dec 22, 2014 | Matt Barber

Posted on 12/25/2014 8:36:57 AM PST by lqcincinnatus

I am no longer a Republican. John Boehner, Mitch McConnell and their Democrat-lite, RINO Republican establishment have seen to that. They have betrayed their own constituents. They have actively turned against the American people – the very voters who granted them power to do good.

Even before the gavel has sounded on the Republican-led 114th Congress, these treacherous cowards shamelessly, eagerly, it seems, squandered perhaps the one opportunity they had to stop, in his tracks, America’s first cultural Marxist, anti-American, palpably evil president.

The day of the vote I called my Congressman, Lamar Smith. Don't vote for the cloture. don't vote for the bill. I won't vote for the bill his office said. He just voted for cloture and the got permission from Boehner to vote against the bill. Fooled you again, didn't they.

During the last presidential election cycle, Sarah Palin preparations for the Republican conventio went from great to non-existent -- She was cut out of the GOP convention.

Since then, I've had no use for those involved in railroading Sarah.

They lterally shot the best Republican ever in the foot.

Next R mail I get, I’m writing a msg.

Hit me up for a donation when Sarah Palin is a nominee. Otherwise remove me from the mailing list.

RINOs don’t represent me either! I know the newly elected folks aren’t in yet. Just shows what scum the current Rs are.

IMO, what they have done since the election is the final evidence needed to prove that the republic is indeed fini.

I will never vote for a democrat, including the ones with R after their name. Who does that leave me to vote for?

I’m staying as a Republican, so I can FIGHT the RINOs, instead of letting them win. If they win, it will because of us CONSERVATIVES leaving and liberals will win. What we need to to go and join the local party and fight from within.

Well then in many states you cannot pick your candidate for the general election.

Ronald Reagan had it right: change the party, don’t leave it.

Chris Christie is a traitor in my book. He stabbed Tom Tancredo in the back in the Colorado Primary election with a lying smear add. He probably cost the GOOP the governor of Colorado in the election.

Cory Gardner has backed off of going up against the demoRats and has all but moved in with them.

Slowly, slowly, some are waking up.

I gave up on much of the GOP/Republicans during the Hastert/Lott/Frist era and GWB’s turn to the left shortly after the 2004 election.

Rush L gave up on them — quit carrying the water — around 2006. Mark L is one inch away from doing something.

You're a bit behind, the S&P closed at 2018.

I know there's a lot of despair on FR, but for now, the frackers have made the US pretty much the "best game in town". Hot money worldwide is flowing our way.

To vote for...if we do not have that right torn from us in the near future, is the man who truly believes and stands for this pledge, and will lay his life down for it:

“I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands; one Nation, under God, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All.”

But above this, this man must live and prove himself worthy of this:

“And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.” (Mark 12:30-32).

Most of the ‘southern’ states are getting together to try to force the RNC to let them have their primaries on March 1.

My state primary is currently so late in the spring that the nominees in 2008 and 2012 were determined weeks earlier.

In previous election years, states that did not follow the RNC dictum were punished with lesser funding and cuts in delegate counts. I suspect the RNC will try the same tactics if that southern block does try to form.
