[You Dirty Rats]

That’s because there are some here who are more interested in purging the Republican Party of elements they dislike than in winning elections.

Here’s a comment from one Freeper’s profile (EEE):

“Hate RINOs, moderates, centrists, etc.”

There’s no comment about hating terrorists, communists, fascists, pedophiles, murderers, rapists, etc. No comment about opposing ‘rats or liberals.

No, it is the “RINO’s” who are hated.

This mentality dislikes 50% supporters more than 0% supporters. This mentality defeated Mike DeWine and elevated Sherrod Brown. Mike supported the War and conservative judges, but his lifetime 80% ACU Rating wasn’t good enough so 4% Sherrod Brown was elected. That enabled Reid and made the difference in the vote last week.

Frankly, I’m tired of the threats of non-support from the radicals. The threats to withhold support in the general election cut no ice with me. It’s impossible to reason with people who think the 1992 strategery of “teaching a lesson” is a good idea in 2008. The radicals are the ones who need to be taught a lesson — their numbers aren’t enough to dictate policy.

And Free Republic, too.

We were told flat out by one of the resident prigs today that we weren't welcome here.
