More evidence to illustrate that all of us have been played for fools, all the way up to the nominee for President they shoved down our throats through Machine thuggery politics.

We are WAAAY past the point of fixing or even SLOWING what is coming if we do not get our minds out of the trap they have set for us.

We better be thinking WAAAY different if we want to survive.

A Faustian bargain was made by the GOP leadership, in exchange for the complete political irrelevance of Conservatism and a promised piece of the pie in Obama’s Fundamentally Transformed America.

“...all the way up to the nominee for President they shoved down our throats through Machine thuggery politics.”

Hm...could you please your understanding of exactly how one becomes the Republican nominee for President?

The GOP jas lost millions of voters by behaving like Obama's Chicago Machine.

The Michigan Republican Party (MRP) Credentials Committee voted 4-2 last night to give Mitt Romney both of the state's at-large delegates, State Policy Committee Chair Mike Cox told MIRS today.

Cox was one of two "no" votes on the committee which met via telephone, along with attorney Eric Doster The "yes" votes included GOP National Committeeman Saul Anuzis, a Romney supporter, and MRP Chair Bobby Schostak.

That would put the delegate split at 16 for Romney and 14 for Rick Santorum, after each candidate won 14 delegates apiece in those divided by Michigan's 14 congressional districts.

As MIRS first reported on Wednesday, the MRP was delaying a final decision on the delegate split until after consulting with attorneys.

Cox said that according to the MRP rules, Santorum and Romney should each get one of Michigan's two at-large delegates based on their take of the popular vote.

"I supported Mitt, but the vote was clearly wrong," Cox said of the Credentials Committee. "It's kind of like Third World voting. We published rules and then we voted to change the rules."

Actually, conservatives have only themselves to blame for RINO Romney heading the ticket. Any idiot knew that ONE conservative should have been chosen to contend for the nomination against the “moderate” candidate. But no, conservatives can’t get their act together and once again have no voice.

So the choice is between a go-along-and-get-along Republican in the Bob Dole mode and a diabolical Socialist.....some choice.
