Well, they went and did it.
The Republicans look like they will wimp out, not exercise the so-called Nuclear Option, and Harry Reid will PERMIT two judges to be approved and disapprove four others. Does anyone think for a second the Democrats won't "go nuclear" in a heartbeat if the roles were reversed?
This seals the deal for me. I am a Republican no more. It seems it does not matter if I vote Republican anyways, all I get is more liberalism. I am a man without a political party. I am a conservative without a home.
Between Bushes enthusiastic embrace of illegal immigration, and our party's inability to get even moderately conservative judges approved, what's the freakin' point of voting Republican any more? What's the point of voting? I will get liberalism no matter how I vote. My main issue is guns, and it appears the Democrats have learned their lesson on that one, so it appears I will be safe on the firearms front. Everything else the Republicans stand for, they stand for in word only. They do not seem to want to act. Therefore, I do not seem to want to vote Republican any more.
This is my Opus -- not from Free Republic, but from the Republican party. Even when they have the majority, they surrender.
The Republican Party is the France of politics.
Stop repeating yourself.
Perhaps I had POS: Premature Opus Syndrome.
Why don't you post a true opus and hit the road?
What do you call it when the party LEFT YOU.?..
Progressive?...
Republicans seem to be NOT for this Republic.....
Maybe their warmed over Publicans.. (i.e. re-publican)
If She Who Must Not Be Named is the rat nominee then the republican can be caught in bed with a dead woman and a live boy, dress like the Tim Curry charactor from the Rocky Horror picture Show, he could want to send all of our jobs ti China, he could smoke crack, he could worship satan, and also enjoy a kicking of s puppy every now and again. And I would still vote for him over Hiltery.
Yes, but voting Libertarian doesn't get you anywhere. They will never win. We need to reform our party if they are not doing what we want them to do.
No, thank you.
The thing is that if you are not a registered party member, you might not be able to vote in the primaries, and so will have no voice in selecting your party's candidates. It's not much, but at least it's a chance to choose between bad and awful.
Yeah? Well, good luck with that. Tell McCain and Chaffee I said hi.
I think as an American Indian you have a better chance at becoming President than Pope anyway. Go ahead and run on the Conservative Party ticket. I'll vote for ya!
(you could wear your new heels at the '08 ball - promise me the first dance?)
Hi Hank....I just spoke with Chafee's office....I said Hi & also said....Tell the Senator to support the effort to stop the filibuster of judicial nominees!
Follow the Constitution.....let ALL the Seantors VOTE!
Howl! No, I will have to be in touch with Warner and Allen. They belong to me, or is it I belong to them? I will, however, give them your regards and tell them you are going to leave the party if they don't get things under control soon. :)
What took you so long? The pubbies (congress AND the WH) have been acting like p#$$ies for the past 4 years. The only thing that might make those idiots grow a pair would be Hillary in the oval office. Scary thought all the way around.
Exactly
Only if you are a chick.
Otherwise that would be gay.
Thank goodness. Things will get better in the party. Just hang on.
Wesley Pruden of The Washington Times agrees with you Past time to get down and dirty
Laz.....I think of you as a member of the 'Chosen People'....Judaism is the root of Christianity!
I also hope that the message is accurate & that the calls are working'
In the past few minutes, I've called Snowe, Hagel, Chafee, Sanatorium......
500?
