Time for a Christian exodus from a failed Republican Party

It is time for Christians, and those of other faiths who value this nation’s unique character, to leave the Republican Party and start their very own political organization.

For decades, the Christian alliance with the GOP has failed to roll back or even mildly halt the relentless advance of liberalism. We have lost the culture, lost the traditional underpinnings of the nation and no longer have a national character we can take pride in. The Republican Party is useless for all those who are serious about upholding traditional Judeo-Christian morality.

The GOP hates Conservatives. They run against us in primaries, and campaign against us (in the press) in general elections.

And who is voting for these RINOs? How do we convince them to vote for Conservatives instead?

Can we not take the hint?

Come on man,
No mre mcLame,dull dole, or mitt the not quite Christian?

[Darren McCarty]

It is obvious, it has not worked, it has only gotten worse.

Wrong.

I like my rep (Tim Walberg) who is a Republican. He's generally done a good job. Bad reps can be primaried out. I've been there and done that and helped our current rep succeed in his primary against a RINO. It takes hard work, less bitching, and good organization to get that done. If Grace Vuoto wants to play the Christian card and sound moralistic, my rep is also a minister who is as squeaky clean as it gets.

As far as Priebus goes, the way to get rid of him is by electing good RNC committee folks. We got rid of two of them that didn't get the job done.

Want to get rid of Obamacare and have a good immigration policy? Elect a good senate.

It's been since 1856 since we had a good, old-fashioned beatdown on the floor of the senate.

We are a small minority, we are going to be oppressed and we are going to be suppressed, this has already been foretold.

Aren't we called to be witnesses of Christian/Conservative values to the unsaved, to win them over?

Or should we just allow the left to turn our young into the majority that is oppressing and suppressing us?

[donmeaker]

The Tea Party has helped elect some darned good candidates.

Rubio got fooled, but Cruz and Paul didn’t. I would still prefer a Senate with Cruze and Paul than one without them.

If you know better candidates, then consider promoting them, contributing to them, and educating them.

I refer you to the election of 1860....the Democrats had no shortage of political parties. They had a shortage of voters and positions that would attract voters.

[donmeaker]

Don’t forget the Senator that held others at gunpoint so that the vile attack on Senator Sumner could be accomplished.

How brave that senator must have been, backed up by a friend with a gun. Slave Power honor at its finest.

[JRandomFreeper]

I do promote candidates, and I also go door-to-door to undermine the GOP-E candidates like Dewhurst. I will not support the republican party. I will support a conservative.

[GeronL]

We should be witnesses and win them over, we should not be voting and supporting their candidates in the meantime though

[lonestar]

Explain the logic that you can win elections when you don't have the votes to win a majority of a party.

Ross Perot came closer than anybody and it didn't even work out for him. Gave us Bill Clinton.

I know from experience...IT DOES NOT WORK!

[dfwgator]

HW gave us Clinton.

[JRandomFreeper]

I was not endorsing the reason for the beating. Just pointing out that reaching across the aisle doesn't always have to mean surrender. Sometimes it can mean a concussion.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

we should not be voting and supporting their candidates in the meantime though

That's what the primaries are for. We need to win Americans over to the Conservative choices in the primaries, so we don't have to hold our noses in November.

[donmeaker]

Need to do a better job then.

Find some that can win. Losing candidates don’t vote in the halls of Congress, or as Electors for the President.

[JRandomFreeper]

Then close the primary. The GOP-E doesn't want to do that. Why?

Yep and what is needed now is leaders with that kind of zeal for our nation. The Founding Fathers at times about came to blows. Can anyone picture Graham, Alexander, Corker, Boehner, etc getting angry enough to do anything beyond a Oh that was so mean spirited of my friend across they aisle comments? We need real men in congress. You look at TV today and some look like they just took off their drag queen make up.

[donmeaker]

Just keep in mind that if Sumner had defended himself, the other ‘southern gentleman’ would have shot him dead.

And why were the southern gentlemen so mad at him? Sumner spoke the truth about their particular institution and its sexual aspects.

[Darren McCarty]

Also grown men don’t play “magical thinking”. That yeah...will start a new party...millions will join...let’s call it the Ross Perot..party.

Not even Teddy Roosevelt was able to do it, and he was an ex-president.

[JRandomFreeper]

I supported Cruz, because he is a conservative. Not because he was Republican.

Just like I will actively do what I can to sabotage Dewhurst here in Texas, because he is the ultimate GOP-E loser.

[GeronL]

I do not have to hold my nose in November.

I refuse to vote for a candidate that requires me to hold my nose.

I am done voting for lesser evils, I am done compromising, I am done tolerating
