Senate seat went to a guy who does not live in New Jersey (the state he was running for)?

Conservatives should immediately call for a vote of no confidence in Boner the loser and replace him with someone who has the backbone to fight the next time this comes up. If that doesn’t work I wouldn’t mind seeing every Tea Party Republican Congresscritter switch over to Independent.

This the Not the Death of the GOP.

This is the Birth of a New Movement.

It must be clear to everyone that the GOP is NOT on our side.

I don't know which path we should take.

A: Third Party, It can (and should be done) but the Political Parties in this country is so entrenched the last time we had a successful one it literally started a Civil War.

B: Take Over the GOP like the Progressives did the Democrats, a more viable Option, but that means McConnell and McCain have GOT to go. No If ands or buts about that.

Either way we should no longer give the GOP money, give to individual Candidates or work independently for them.

I’ll agree 100%.

I understand a whole bunch of you were all wild-eyed and determined to sink Obamacare, but that wasn’t going to happen, partly because there are some of us who support it. That is to say we support it as a step.

Because there is no other step. American healthcare is an expensive, unreliable mess right now.

We also support Sarah Palin, and Ted Cruz.

And I was opposed to both of them, just on this one issue.

Right now, there is a GOP bill stuck in the House, in fact I bet there are several GOP bills stuck in the House.

Find a good one, or make a better one.

ABOUT HEALTHCARE.

Propose our own version. Then fight it out. Nationwide.

Don’t just say “no”.

Advocate for a better plan.

Control of the media means everything.

Republicans were vilified from the start. The whole story was never told.

These disasters will continue until the press becomes more balanced.

We may have lost the battle, but let's not lose the lessons.
Lessons learned:
1. Our GOP establishment leaders are not up to the job.
2.
3.
4.
5.

Well said Viennacon and I agree with everything you wrote.

I plan to do all I can to support anyone willing to primary those RINO a$$holes and hope there’s a tough, strong Tea Party candidate that runs against every one of them.

As far as I’m concerned Ted Cruz is a hero and fought the good fight. He stands to fight another day and many of us here on FR will be with him.

There is no more dusting off. It’s time to walk out and watch it burn.

If they want to set fire to their own house, then let them. Let all the people that trust in them burn themselves to death. It’s not our responsibility to save them from their own stupidity.

The only job people should have is preparing themselves for the results that will come assuredly as the rain will fall from the sky. Get yourself into a position you can keep your head above water when the flood does come. We don’t know when everything will come crashing down, but we know it fall. Sooner or later.

When I see cities burning, the just sit back and say “You wanted it, you got it suckers”

Any effort you put into blunting the effects of their actions just prolongs the agony. So don’t waste your time.

Save yourself F**k em…. Let em die from their own stupidity.

The left is laughing at us and using us to wipe their asses.

I’m glad you find that funny. :)

My congressman is Kenny Marchant of Texas. Since going to Congress last year, he’s been a consistent conservative vote, as he was again tonight.

Aside from the despicable John Cornyn, I couldn’t be happier with my reps in Washington.

Nope, not McConnell.

There are a number of Senators who obstruct the House Republican Caucus by supporting the most liberal members.
They are our true problem.
Though McConnell is no prize...

Yeah dust off and get ready for January. “January is another day!”

It remains to be seen, if there is resolve or capitulation among the congresscritters left by this mess.

This is like Groundhog Day.

There will be no gridlock. Republicans cave all the time. They might as well call themselves Democrats.

The jobs will not come back. Americans are lazy and demand too much money for doing nothing. They would rather get “free” things from the government.

Face it Obama is a dictator will rule until he dies.

To: Viennacon; All

Anyone that thinks stopping the tyranny we are growing comfortable with via politics and elections is delusional. Stop being stuck on stupid - and realize you’re infected with Normacly Bias.

McConnell and the Ruling Class essentially just granted Obama Dictatorial status and surrendered their own Constitutionally proscribed powers to the Executive tyrant and his regime in the White House.

The ONLY way to put an end to the tyranny coming out of D.C. is going to have to come from OUTSIDE the system and beyond the institutions and systems the Ruling Class have corrupted for themselves.

We are arrived at a point as illustrated by history - that the ONLY recourse left us is going to require that which few to none will even allow themselves to contemplate. But that time is upon us.

Or we all end up walking willingly to the camps.
