Fox predicting START will be ratified with the help of nine RINOs. Reportedly, Obama is going with the meme that the Lame Duck gave him a "triple victory:" START, DADT, and the budget deal as a launching point for the next two years, during which he will again double-down. That we still have so many RINOs in Congress is disheartening.
I am still praying that this POS treaty dies.
Can’t DeMint or anybody filibuster this? Do they have no idea how demoralizing and infuriating all this lame duck stuff is for the base? Nov. might as well have not happened. I am trying not to be discouraged, but where are even the good members of the GOP? Sometimes it’s not enough to vote against; sometimes, if you love your country, you just have to STOP this stuff in its tracks.
They are not all RINOS...Bob Corker may vote for it, although it is a mistake, he is far from a RINO.
It’s too bad.
I am with you.... I just got off the phone with my RINO senator Isakson of Ga. who is now FOR the treaty.... the office says they are getting lots of calls - won’t say for or against but I KNOW they are mostly against. His D.C. office mailbox is full.... they don’t even care what the voters think..... i am just sick :(
Nothing has changed, nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are stillin charge. Nancy just moved her office, she is still running things.
Define RINO...

The Headlines Are Wrong: Dont Ask, Dont Tell Has Not Been Repealed

A good place to begin would be for a couple of GOP Senators to take Dick Lugar out back of the Hart Building and beat the living snot out of him.
I wish they would at least tell us what their price is. If we knew the price of these whores, we tax drones could at least take up a collection and have a chance of buying them just like anyone else in Washington does.
So, whores, just what IS your price?
Rino: A Republican who typically votes against conservative principals.
Bob Corker and several of the ones who will vote for START are not, in my opinion, RINOS. All politicians get it wrong sometimes. Witness Sarah Palin’s endorsement of Juan McLame.
Do you have his Atlanta #? Isaksan is my RINO too. I am almost too angry to trust myself to call, but I guess I must.
I will post what I just sent to Mike [Obama sic] McConnell, and you can be the judge if I want Reid to cancel their Christmas or not:
You RINOs have ***NO*** idea how infuriated all this lame duck stuff is making the base. We have never detested the GOP the way we detest it now. You may think 2012 is a long way off, but believe me it’s not. The TEA Party is going to run the table, and we will neuter [politically speaking] the few RINOs that remain—count on it!!!
If the RNC would film that, and sell the DVDs, their fund raising woes would be over for a couple of years, at least.
Me too, but it looks like they have at least 70 votes and only need 67. The drive bys are building this up as a HUGE victory for The One. Way too sad. Not a good Christmas present.
Those Republicans better too.
