Anyone Else Fed UP With the GOP?

[Karama]

I am posting this, because of recent events. I am very upset with watching our freedoms being signed away by this new "President", and seeing those who are supposed to be leaders in the GOP not even batting an eye over it. I am sick of the spineless way some of the GOP behave when they should be standing up saying, "Heck No we are Not going to let you do this."

We voted for these people on the notion that they would carry out the conservative agenda that we sent them there to perform. So far we have yet to see much of this. We as citizens give these people the power to rule us. I say it is time we start taking it away if they will NOT obey the will of those who gave them their power in the first place.

I think also the crowing moment that has set me on fire for a new kind of change is the "President's" comment that he won so we should all just sit down shut up and do what ever he wants. When he told the officials we elected that he in effect told us this as well. I say now is when we need to break this silence and be as loud as we can be. I refuse to sit down and shut up any longer. I don't care if I am the only one who is willing to get a bull horn and speak my mind. I will. Conservatives, friends, silence is getting us no where, but shafted. We need to take a more proactive tack with our government. Even if it means starting a new party.

I have as of late felt that the GOP leadership has left it's grass root conservatism behind. It has fallen prey to the notion that if they become more "moderate" that they will be loved by the liberal left. Hog wash!

So in light of this, I feel if our so called "leaders" are going to leave us behind, then I feel we should do them the same turn. I call for all those with a mind for justice, and a love of freedom to stand up. All those who wish to not see this great Republic fade into the night stand up! Stand up for the constitution, for God, for the betterment of mankind! STAND UP!

Since Reagan left office. Screw the Dems, GOP, and the godless Libertarians.

So, how about getting on the phone and venting to the RINO staff?

Posting gripes here is merely catharsis and accomplishes nothing, my friends.

Hold their feet to the fire, as requested above.

You can do better than that. Find a conservative who espouses your beliefs and is running for Congress or Senate and campaign for them. Help them raise money. Push them in the face of the GOP.

See there were a lot of good conservative candidates in the last couple of years that never made it. I sent money to the couple that I found that stood for the things I felt most important.

That is what I’m going to concentrate on these next couple of years. It’s Congress we need to take back control of. They are the money bags.

And, yes, I’m with you on being disgusted that GOP is not standing firm against the free spending on Capital Hill.

Oh never mind, we can trash the GOP all by ourselves.

The GOP needs trashing. Socialism-lite isn't conservatism.

Kinda early to be calling the Capitol.

My representative is John Culberson of the very conservative Texas District 7 (Houston) and I imagine he is vehemently opposed to this garbage. (He'd better be.)

I sent him an e-mail anyway.

let W wreck the GOP and the economy.

Come again?

100% correct!

Been in solitary confinement for eight years have you?

[Biggirl]

This is why I have left the GOP party and is independent. The GOP has left me.

[Biggirl]

Rather the two party system is DEAD.

Good one Johnny7

I disagree with that.. It is in our NATION’s best intrest to preserve the two-party system. A strong 3rd party will only reduce the number of votes needed to win the MAJORITY. That my FRiend is a more serious problem for a lot of reasons IMHO.

What we need to do is be a LOT more active and frankly a lot more EFECTIVE in pulling the RNC back to the Conservative BASE.. we failed miserably on this task in the 2008 election.. conservatives were split on who to support and that resulted in McCain getting the nommination.. it was so predictable and yet we did it to ourselves...

"The GOP is the Seinfeld party."

That would make the DNC....

soup Nazi's?

"What we need to do is be a LOT more active and frankly a lot more EFECTIVE in pulling the RNC back to the Conservative BASE.."

Will this be after the communist revolution era (beginning right before our eyes) or will it be after the second coming?

Until the American voter wakes up and votes these people out we are screwed.

Once in a while, I hear Kirk on the radio and can't believe this guy is a Republican and military to boot.

I do believe he's a moron.
