I join a massive number of republican-voting citizens who have had it with the likes of you all, from Reince Priebus on down. You say you represent the party of small government and pro-family values. You act anything but. We are sick and tired of the party’s move to the left and to your empty promises of support for the party’s planks. We have tried to stay on, especially since the election of more democrats is killing our country, its culture, morality, and its economy. The democrat party is the anti-America Marxist party and you all seem to like their ideology enough to give them their way, and since they apparently host the best cocktail parties you are more than willing to go along with them so you can be invited. (They laugh at you behind your backs, you know!)
You fail to support those very candidates that espouse the truly American values that made America great. (Cuccinelli, for instance!) You despise the conservative base because we are not that rich, although the greater majority of us are the hard-working class that pay taxes and put you into office. You listen to the filthy rich who care little about whether America remains great, or even survives as a country, but want what you can give them through attachments here and there to bills sent through Congress. These same people care less whether real Americans lose their jobs, as long as you can provide them with low income workers so they can get richer and give more to your campaigns. (These fatcats also support the democrats.)
Ninety million working age Americans out of work and this is not a crisis? Ever-expanding entitlement rolls, most of which will never go off them, and this is no crisis? Where does this end? You tell conservative groups here and there that you are concerned, promise this and that, but we hear your snide remarks about us and how you can’t get anything done because we keep reminding you of your promises. How dare we, huh?
Trust once lost is hard to regain. The republican party has lost our trust and those numbers are skyrocketing, not diminishing. You think you live in a district that is safe, but you are totally snookered if you think that even in your own districts people are not waking up to the truth about the republican party of today. There is a LOT of talk of forming a new party. More than ever. Not that I think we should, but if you cannot abide by the party’s planks you should join the party that suits your own ideology. Marxism and Marxism-lite is not an option for we conservatives. We’d prefer to stay republicans, since the party planks already state what WE stand for. If you like the democrats platform better, then run on that one. Why have two similar parties? The reason the republican party came into existence was to give people a real choice. YOU need to make a choice. Either run as a true conservative, or join the democrat party. We cannot afford compromise any longer. You give away way too much and we always lose so much more than we ever get from the democrats. And, 80+ of you running to submit amicus briefs to the Supreme Court in favor of same sex marriage was a total sellout against your base. Enough is enough. And, don’t dare to call for donations. If you think that we will support your lies and smug attitude toward us, you are in for a rude awakening. Better sooner than later, really. Principled people run on the party that espouses their own beliefs, not just the party that seems to have the most voters in your district. If we cannot have principled people in our party, we will find or build another one that does, if that is what it requires.

Why is “Reince” Prebus still in charge? Doesn’t a losing coach usually get FIRED???
He should have been fired for having that name alone. When he was first elected I said “Please God tell me he has a nickname like ‘Bud’ or ‘Rock’”
RUSH caller: Susan 45 from Glendale CA (Sep 30 , 2009)
Mom, 7 children…lawyer
Rush, it’s a huge honor for me to speak to you and I hope I can keep my voice level because I am so passionate, I’m as passionate as you are about this country. I’m a conservative, I’ve listened to you for 25 years. I’m married, I have seven kids, and when you were telling me about how... all of the shenanigans that they’re going to do... in the Senate, to pass two different Senate bills then slam ‘em together, attach them to some house bill about TARP and then jam it through and jam it down our throats I got furious, and then I listened to what you said about the Michigan mom who was watching some kids before they went to school and how the Michigan state came down on her accusing her of running an illegal day care and you’re... you’re right, what they’re going to do is they’re going to threaten our health and they’re going to threaten the health of our children if I don’t comply with their health care I’m not going to be able to get my children the medicine they need...
Rush: No... it’s not... whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... it’s not if you don’t comply with their health care, it’s not if you’re a good citizen in support of the liberals running the country.
Yes sir, and I’m not, I’m a conservative. You know what, I’m 45, I might fall and break my hip in the next ten years, they’re going to have to give me a shot cause they’re not going to want me to be healed. And they’re going to do this to my children. It’s like you said... they are the party of abortion... they are the party of euthanasia. They are trying to wipe out senior citizens who are... maybe not as useful to the Democrat National Committee as they should be, who are not contributing enough to them. And I am outraged and furious and my question to you... because I’m a political nobody. I’m just out here on the left coast in la-la land watching all the liberals run our California state bankrupt. What can we do? Legally, morally, to take this country back. I want people to stand up and I want them to vote these these... these criminals, these pedophiles out of office. I want them to take back the state of California and make it a golden state, and I want them to take back Washington, but we’re little people, and we marched, 2,000,000 of us down to Washington and the press, ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, not one of them shows pictures on the news not one of them will report anything, in fact they cover it up.
I’ve talked to so many people on... on the phone... just neighbors , who are liberal and some of them are conservatives, both sides, and I tell them these things... go to Fox news, look at this. No one sees the truth because... the travesty of all of this. Part of this is politics... it’s normal, I understand, it’s two party, we’re going to fight and tussle over what’s right and wrong, and then, you know, we’re going to win some, lose some. But the damning thing, today, is that the press, the press, is betraying us. And we have no way, just us, we, the little political moms, nobodies, I’m... I’m a mother, and I have no one to listen to, to go to on the news, except for you and Fox. Tell us what we can do in 2010, other than voting for Sarah Palin, which I will do, but I need to know, because I don’t have much hope, I sure don’t have hope from Obama, I need hope from Rush, and I want you to please, tell us what we can do because this is the life of my children. They’re on the line. They can put me out to pasture, but yes, they’ve got me over a barrel because I will do anything to save the life of my children, and if it means that I’ve got to kiss some big Democrat’s rear end to get the health care for my baby, I’ll have to do it. And that sickens me, because they are MY employees
I need to know because I don’t have much hope.
Tell us what we can do because this is the life of my children, they’re on the line.
And that sickens me because they’re my employees, I’m paying their salaries, I’m paying for their fancy office of doctors down at the... what you were talking about... down at the House of representatives and Senate, they just get to walk in, pay $503 specialists flown in, pharmacy right there, on their hour, probably open 24 hours a day, nobody has to wait... they get because I’m paying for it, I’m paying for it, it’s coming out of my children’s allowances.
And they’re taking it without listening, without representing us, like you said, the small “r.” I’m not being represented. I’ve called Boxer’s office, I’ve called Adam Schiff, who’s my so-called representative. They are very polite, the little people on the phone but the people who are running this country, don’t listen to us, there are millions of us and we’re all furious. And no one, no one is even reporting what is being said, and I’m watching the country that I love, that my father fought for in WWII, that my father-in-law, was wounded and got the purple heart for and I’m watching it just.. just... being taken, just like candy from a baby, oh we’ll help you, we’ll give you health care... here’s a lollypop, go away.
And nobody’s doing anything. I’m sorry to be so angry, but I need hope, and I need to know how to counteract these shenanigans. This is not what we put people in government for. To run little bitty side bills, smash ‘em together, and then vote ‘em under the carpet into a different health care bill that’s languishing.
That’s dirty politics, and it shouldn’t be happening. It should be up-and-down vote. And you’re right, the 63 new judges coming on, they’re going to... that’s going to cement, that’s going to absolutely cement their ability to write law, instead of legislate, they can just send it to the judges. The judges will rubber-stamp it.
We’ll just write the law... never mind conservatism, never mind reading what the law actually says. And I look at this, I see this happening every day, I listen to you, and I’m to the point where I don’t even know if I should listen any more, cause it... it... it... I’m so passionate and I’m so furious to watch all this, to hear it all happening, and I feel so powerless for the first time in my life.
I’m glad Mrs. Obama is proud of her country for the first time in her life. I as a mother, as a nobody, I am ashamed of my government, for the first time in my life. And I need to know, how to combat this, especially in 2010, what can I do today, NOW, to help, to revitalize these... these namby-pamby liberal-conservative RINOs in our Senate, and in our government, who are just voting to get along and... (Imitates) “I want to get re-elected.” That’s nonsense. They’re not standing up for what’s good and clean and right. They’re not standing up for our Constitution. They should be all thrown out, every last one of ‘em. And I don’t know how to mobilize people, but you do Rush, you do, you have the power, and with... with great gifts, God gives great responsibility, and I beg you, please, please, give us hope, and lead us... because this cannot stand, they cannot keep doing this... this is wrong. (end of segment string).

Republicans in WA, where I live have been just as ineffective, supporting unions over the best interests of the county, thinking that the unions will vote their way. They never learn.
It killed me to vote Democrat in my county council races, but I did because there was only one issue that really mattered in Whatcom County and to me, the coal terminal and coal trains. The terminal and trains were so bad for the county that the local Democrats opposed it with a full out campaign, despite the union push in support of the terminal. So, the stupid Republicans decided to support the unions who supported the coal terminal.
Every single Republican in Whatcom County lost. Two years ago, Republicans two years ago, the Republicans were in control, except in the city of Bellingham, but they threw it all away. The coal terminal would have pretty much destroyed the value of my property and our health, as well, we are only about a mile away.
Shery,
You are far too kind towards the republican big wigs.
They like Rove, are simply in it for the money.
Screw em.
WTF?
Rush lead us? Really? The guy who had the power and gifts from God and then chose to be SILENT on Obama’s Article 2, Section 1, eligibility?
That guy?
Sorry, dear caller. When true tyranny comes to the U.S. Rush and the rest will sell their talents to the fascist oligarchy and lick the jack boots crushing our necks.
Bet on it! He may being doing it now.
My open letter to the RNC is a bit more terse.
“Eat sh*t and die.”
If the question is how to restore republican freedom, another conservative leaning third party is not the answer.
I have been viewing the Republicans as wanting to win against the Democrats for a long time. Now I do not view them as anything but losers by choice for whatever reason. Losers for fear of the tea party, fear of the liberal media not liking you, fear of small government, desire for big money, or maybe just being a progressive and hiding it. When I see a huge scandal on the Democrat side worthy of investigation and much more, I know in advance that all you will do is put on a show for us. Nothing more. This is why the public is so disappointed and disheartened by you. Perhaps you do want to exclude the conservative base into the future and believe you can make up for that with Hispanics after granting them amnesty. Well, I have some news for you. They will continue to vote Democrat and you will have lost the conservatives for good when you finally get it. People thought you stood for low taxes, less regulations, protecting our borders and preserving liberty. What we see is just the opposite. I keep hearing everyone say you are afraid but I think it is more than that. I think you are corrupted by corporatism. Obamacare will create such hardship for the American people and ruin so many lives but we see you attacked Cruz, Lee, Cuccinelli, and others who speak out on our behalf. We know now that we are your target. We intend to defeat you at every turn.
I am a conservative Tea Party “advocate”, and will never give the RNC or Party a damned thing.
I get e-mails every day from the rino likes of Karl Rove that say how we are fighting the good cause in defunding Obamacare and other turds from the RNC that haven’t a clue what is happening to their party. They talk out of both sides of their mouths and lie straight in our faces . I will never vote again for a RINO and if that means letting our country fall until the fight starts then so be it. I hate the GOP but I want to BOIL THE DEM’s IN HOT CRUDE and I want to start today!!!
Eva, the *Republican* mayor of my town endorsed a dhimmicrat as his successor and then twisted arms to obtain an endorsement from the Republican Party on her behalf.
With friends like this who needs enemies?
Those are also more of my own sentiments.
Its a bit coarse, but it is short and sweet.
I will vote for individuals, but I doubt I will even bother to vote for President next time around.
I love you! Great post! Thanks!
