See, here's the thing: JRandomFreeper isn't talking about Democrat/Republican control of the Senate, but liberty/liberal (more accurately statist
) control.
His underlying argument, rephrased, is this: What good is it if I change (D) to (R) if the candidates are ideologically the same and neither represents me?
You have stated that you are part of the problem and would rather have the RATS in control than your ideal, perfect Conservative.
No, I don't believe that is the case.
Look at what the Republican party is promising: amnesty, no fighting against ObamaCare, etc.
Look at the things they could have enjoyed popular/"bipartisan" support from the electorate on: pursuing/punishing IRS targeting, pursuing/punishing NSA spying, and pursuing/punishing the IRS's asset forfeiture practices (though this would have to be publicized).
But what have they really done?
Johnny, I have agree with you on many occasions, but your position here, at this precarious point in our nation's history, a turning point where we can vote for a less-than perfect candidate and start to turn our nation away from socialist hell, cannot be justified.
How?!
How is electing people who have said that they want exactly the same things that the other guy
wants going to change things away from that goal?
Your assertion here is completely unfounded.
We had our chance in the primary and didn't prevail. Okay, the GOPe screwed us. Now, we need to vote out the RATS next week, and then go after the GOPe between now and 2016.
Why!?
Why would you reward them with victory who, in your own words, screwed us
?
It makes zero sense.
One enemy at a time, Johnny...unlike Sergeant York, we need to shoot the one closest to us first.
Wouldn't those closest to us be those enemies who are wearing the same uniform
?

How would Sergeant York respond to a fellow soldier who backstabbed his friends and colluded with the enemy?
What should we do about ...
Cochran, Graham, Cornyn, McConnel, McCain...
Go ahead and be a fool. You are a waste of my time.
