This day is the exact right day to start this fight! Sheer stupidity is advocating rino's and moderates lead the party. Tell me, where has the moderate and rino agenda ever advance conservative principles? You go talk "calmly to your neighbors and then wake up the next morning to see you country gone.
If you do not want the republican party to be led by conservatives and driven by a conservative agenda then get out of my party. Your namby rino crap talk as has been proven to be FOS!
McCain, Graham is that you?
I don't know who or what you are, but where I live, politics is a matter of addition, not subtraction. Maybe scholasticism thrives in your neck of the woods, but elsewhere we need to expand our numbers, not form a circular firing squad.
IIRC, my message to you said that only by getting majorities in the House and Senate can we appoint committee chairs and leaders, who should be right of center (translate that as "conservative" if you are in Rio Linda).
Once you have the majorities, work on replacing squishes with more conservative folks.
I believe that it is preferable to have someone who votes conservative some/most of the time than someone who is beholden to a party committed to the destruction of America. Again, YMMV.
In re your McCain, Graham comment, my Cass Sunstein quip was a reference to the fact that Cass Sunstein, an exec branch employee, advocates using federal dollars to pay provocateurs to disrupt conservative forums, which I find objectionable; the allusion was to suggest that we help our enemy by attacking ourselves. I will try to be more explicit in the future for your benefit. If you cared to check out previous posts of mine, you would find that I have been consistently and diametrically opposed to the principles and actions of RINOs.
If you think that your anger will attract independents to the conservative side, I think you are mistaken. People are people and will irrationally choose sweet poison over bitter medicine. We need to provide a positive message in a positive way to attract independents and "Reagan" Democrats. "Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down"
Two last points: I am a conservative first, Republican second; that being said, who died and made you the sole arbiter of Republican virtue? And what makes you think your rude, intemperate, vulgar, and insulting comments would be welcome in any private conversation or public forum? "Confirm thy goal in self-control"
