By refusing to vote for Romney, this conservative was NOT voting for anyone other than our own FReeper Eternal Vigilance. I did not vote FOR Obozo, whatever some GOP-E love slaves here may hallucinate. I will NEVER vote FOR another GOP-E candidate for any office at any level and especially if that candidate BUYS the nomination. I am not the only conservative to free myself from the GOP automatic vote habit. our ranks grow daily. If the GOP wants our votes, it will have to earn those votes the old-fashioned way by nominating candidates WORTH VOTING FOR in their own right without regard to whatever POS the Demonrats choose to nominate.
I cast my first POTUS vote in 1968 for Richard Nixon and, until Romney, I voted for every GOP POTUS candidate nominated. In retrospect, only Reagan and, maybe, Bush the Younger were worth voting for. Nixon was a disgrace but one ought not vote for the likes of George McGovern. The same argument might be made for voting for Bush the Elder over Snoopy in a Tank Dukakis and Slick Willy and Slick Hilly (two for the price of one!) but Bush the Elder was a dreadful excuse for a POTUS. He put Clarence Thomas on the SCOTUS and that's it. He also put David "Swish" Souter on the SCOTUS canceling out Thomas. I was soooooo controlled by the GOP-E that I held my nose and voted for Gerald Ford aganst Jimmuh Peanut.
I was a Reagan state chairman against Ford, a state chair of Young Americans for Freedom, Young Republicans, College Republicans and American Conservative Union. I was a volunteer attorney for the National Rifle Association's members and for 1100 pro-lifers arrested (mostly charged with felonies) invading abortion mills, de-sterilizing the instruments, breaking raw eggs to pour into the suction machines, shutting the mills down for weeks each time. My pro-lifer clients WERE agents of chaos and darned proud of it. 30 of the 1100 were convicted of anything, none of felonies and most of the 30 were convicted of infractions---the equivalent of a parking ticket.
If you suggest that I am not a legitimate conservative, what are YOUR credentials?
Conservatives do NOT owe their votes to any old POS the Republicans choose to nominate and increasingly we won't.
Other than referencing male homosexuals as fudge packers or rump rangers (both accurate descriptions of their perversions), I don't think you will find many instances of my using vile language. Feel free to search. Nor do I think you will find me wallowing with the brain dead mainstream. Isn't that more of a habit of those who support the likes of Romney?
Nihilism??? Cynicism??? Puhleeze! We simply intend to restore the republic by forcing the GOP to either live up to its phony rhetoric and BE the conservative party or fold its moldy tent and make way for a far less ideologically corrupt party to oppose the Demonrats. Running people like Myth Romney, a Demonrat in GOP drag, against the official Demonrat just means a Demonrat win by whatever name. The nihilistic cynics nominate the likes of Myth Romney and Thad Cockroach and others of their ilk. Do you have some evidence that the GOP is not as corrupt (fully corrupt) as the Demonrats? Proof please!
Your personal history confirms some of my comments before.
You feel burned and hurt so everyone else can go to Hell and you don’t care if Obama wins or the Congress goes full Democrat because your poor pure virgin soul found out politicians are corrupt.
Poor baby.
Don’t vote, Fine. Just don’t call yourself a conservative anymore or try to harm the rest of us.
If you were serious you’d get these GOPe entrenched beltway boys primaried out.
But you failed there too.
Take up bird watching.
Your review of your last many decades explains all too well why California is a one party state with token GOPe as the only supposed opposition.
BTTT. Thank You! My senitments exactly.
