You’re types of post are counterproductive. We should be thinking of realistic ways we can change the GOP back into a party that wins elections not fantasizing about some revolution that will never come. You just make us look like violent kooks.
You’re = Your
It is just too difficult for a third party to ever get traction. We have to work within the GOP if we are ever to see real change.
The socialists began their quest to take over the democrat party I believe in 1968 during the riots in Grant Park in Chicago where Obama quite appropriately celebrated his election on election night.
It depends upon how quickly we can adjust to reality. I think we are somewhere between 1929 and 1933 Weimar Republic.
You do not, and never will have, the ability to do such a thing. You're either going to have to live with the GOP being Liberal Party II, or at some point walk away. Those are your only two choices. This fact is intrinsic to the type of open association the Republican Party happens to be.
These ‘Brahmans’ knifed Goldwater, tried to knife Reagan, and defect to the Dims every chance they get. When they run a candidate they like, we are expected to work our buns off, kowtow and get in line. When their candidate loses, they blame us, and call for a further shift to the left. When the candidate is one of ours, they, at best, hardly break a sweat in working for him. At worst, they sabotage the candidate. Then they call for a shift to the left.
So jettison them. They're going to vote with us [maybe] on taxes. That's not worth the aggita of working with, and sharing a party with them. Our principles are not THEIR principles. And, for the conservative non Pubbies out there, they confuse our message, our programs and our identities. I have more in common with a Blue Dog Democrat than I do with Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, John Warner, Lindsay Graham, Christie Todd Whitman, Rudy Giuliani and John McCain. Try getting those folks into the tent, and dump the dead weight.
Decades too late now.
Maybe we can get Palin to lead a new conservative-constitutional party.
Minnie Pearl will be lucky to lead a Wasilla High School Band, let alone a movement.
How-deeee!
You're probably right.
It would have been fun to have a certified conservative politician someone you can always trust to vote the right way.
Nope Are you?
Wrong again. I am a conservative. But I may not be a Republican much longer if they don’t get a spine.
Yes and I feel pushed. I feel as if the party I have backed since 9/11 has forgotten itself and needs to get off it’s collective back sides and get on the march!

I am with you! That is the whole point of why I wrote this! People need to get fired up we need to get angry. Obama told our reps to sit down and shut up and in effect he told us, the people, to sit down and shut up. That is the wording of a petty dictator. Bush would have never said such a thing.
since I have no idea what you are talking about...I have no idea...
Unless you're talking about vouchers, let's stop using the PC media term and soft-peddling this morally abhorrant position, and call it what it is, pro-abortion.
Yup! http://primarychallenge.org That’s our answer to them!
I am open to how ever we have to do this to get things back on track. I just want people to stop being quiet! For the love of God and the constitution we must speak up. Silence is getting us no where. We must be heard.
