Look no further at all our problems than this group. Until we kick them out kicking and screaming this party is dead.

Check out the website it will make any conservative angry.

You want to look at everything that has gone wrong in the last 5 years look at this group. They are traitors to our party. After we won big in 94 the rino's got together scared that conservative agenda was gaining momentum and wanted to stop it right then and there.

This group was worried after the elections that our gains would help us pass ANWR. They call themselves republicans but hope for the defeats of conservatives and cringe at the thought of 218 conservative members in the house.

This group negotiated with the leaders of our party to get ANWR out of the deal. They are to blame. They have hijacked our party. They stop anything from getting done and make us look weak.

The Dems have dino coalition that negotiates with an outside group with their leadership. Pelosi wants to kick out Jane Harman for being a semi moderate. The dems are all together voting against the budget.

This rino group has taken away our ability to be united and has sabotaged us. America thinks we have the majority so when it nothing happens we get blamed. We don't have the majority. I'd rather be in the minority and be a loyal opposition.

This group are such traitors that Chafee is talking about fillabustering Alito.

There should be mass protests outside the offices of this group in D.C. They were the ones that got Specter elected and called Toomey extreme. We need to raise money to Toomey's group to defeat all rino candidates in primary and put this group out of business. There is a cancer in our party until we clean up the traitors in our party.

I'd rather lose to the dems than be backstabbed by these traitors. They purposefully stay republicans to get together in their group and backstab us.

I see Ginny Brown-Waite and Mark Foley are RINOs from Florida.

Too bad about Ginny. She won a close one last time in a prety conservative district. I don't think it would take much to get her out of there.

Both Foley and Waite are bought and paid for by the AARP contingent.

If you would have tried to tell me on Sept. 12th 2001 that something like this would happen 4 years later, I would have laughed at you. But I guess he who laughs last, laughs best.

I re-posted your comments this morning and was accused of "grasping at straws". The frustration I think is that it is just too bad blue state Republicans need to have the cover to "vote against it before they vote for it".

I will be looking for an alternative, that's a certainty.


Right now none of the alternatives look worth the time or effort.


We need to start believing the facts. The electorate is evenly divided, the Republicans cannot lead, the Democrats are a traitorous organization and no third party can ever get elected nationally.


The best plan of attack is for us to prepare for war, allow the Democrats back in, and hasten the slide into the oblivion that will follow.


We are losing everything my generation and before held dear. As an example, we now not only do not openly despise homosexuality, we make excuses for it and some openly applaud it.

Soon we all will be dumbed down to the point of the Jews in Germany during WW2, and go to the R/R cars without a whimper.

I guess what you are saying is that some people don't know what's best for them? Not that I wanted to jump to any conclusions, or anything.

From NRO:

INERTIA. FATIGUE. PROBLEMS. [Larry Kudlow]

The GOP House leadership continues to struggle over a $50 billion budget-cutting bill. They dropped ANWR in order to pick up some moderate Republican votes and they are desperately reaching out to Blue Dog Democrats. The Senate Finance Committee is marking up only a one-year tax-cut extension, despite the clear fact that the strong economy is based in large part on the huge incentive jolt from capital formation spurred by lower tax rates on dividends and capital gains. Symbolically, Intel just boosted its quarterly cash dividend by 25 percent.

Why Republicans don’t say more about the tax-cut related economic expansion is beyond me. And whether Tuesday’s disappointing election results provide a wake up call for the GOP remains to be seen. But they need a wake up call. Young Turks in the House like Mike Pence, Jeff Flake, and Marsha Blackburn should be represented in the House leadership. Ideas matter. Dick Armey was a great idea man. Speaker Dennis Hastert doesn’t seem to be a great idea man. The Tom DeLay period is probably over. New blood in the leadership is essential.

And speaking of new blood, where exactly is the White House proposal for budget cutting? Last week Bush said he was open to deeper budget cuts. But no new budget-cutting list has so far been unveiled by the OMB. The White House is not using the bully pulpit to lead the effort.

The public is clamoring for exactly this kind of budget (and tax) crusade. A specific budget proposal from the West Wing would be very helpful. The lack of one offers more evidence of Bush fatigue. Failure to provide a specific Social Security reform plan was a key reason for the downfall of this reform. Likewise, failure to publish a specific budget-cutting plan, which could energize the whole congressional process, may lead to the downfall of a significant budget cut this year.

Specific policies will beat inertia. But without specifics, the Democrats will gain more ground simply because the Republicans now running government are failing to meet taxpayer expectations.

This is a real problem. It ain’t going away.

Rino's detest conservatives.

The christie Todd Whitman wing of the Gop has to go.

They are trying to take away our values and what we believe in. Enough is enough.

Snowe has just blocked the tax cuts. It just gets worse with these rino's.

The main street group hates the christian right. They are like the crier court tv anchor always railing about the radical right. They never have a bad word to say about the radical left. Shays went after brown not blanco. This group would rather have a liberal dem win than a toomey conservative. Their biggest fear is the gop getting a true conservative majority. That is why they formed this group in 94 when Newt took over they were scared.

Tom Davis is going to subpena the white house and not blanco or nagin for katrina documents.

I have been yelled out here in the past for even suggesting that I might stay home and not vote. Well, I see it simply, I refuse to vote for a socialist democrat. Why in the heck would I vote for a socialist republican then? If there is no difference in the two, then it does not matter if I withhold my vote from either. A vote for McScream, Chaffey, Stowe or whatever the heck her name is, is the same as a vote for a liberal democrat. I don't like liberals, democrats, socialists, communists, etc., so why would I vote for a republican that prances around pretending to be a conservative, while really just a stinking liberal? I will continue to vote on issues involving non-people at the state and local level, where the vote is up or down against a certain thing. However, I have had it with the people they parade out here as conservative republicans. I find very few of those exist. They certainly no not exist here in WA state or the northwest. But, I have had it with the republican party. I no longer send money, and now I will no longer send votes. Even my wife who really pays little attention to politics asked why we continue to vote for people that are no different? I am not going to try to explain it to her any more, because she is right. It is not worth it. So, why bother. While I support Bush on the war on terror, I believe he has failed miserably in other areas. Like the border issue, huge spending bills, silly mistakes in other areas.

...Last I checked ANWR was still on American soil, ready to boost our economy in more ways than one...

Oh, and (AOR) the "cheap oil" theory just doesn't hold water.

as far as schawrtz is concerned, i think this is the only issue you'll see him as a rino on. seems quite conservative everywhere else. possibly, part of his reasons for standing against anwr drilling is the fact that he is very opposed to drilling in the great lakes.

Murkowski is a hidden rino though. She is pro choice and was one of the major reasons why the gang of 14 came about. She wouldn't commit to a yes vote for the nuclear option. She has many quotes on record blasing the nuclear option.

God willing conservative Republicans will take most if not all of the 11 democrats Senate seats that are in the southern strong red States, and then the RINOs will be marginalized and their votes won't matter. The secular moderate RINOs in the Senate are easily the biggest weak link in the chain that is the conservative movement. If conservatives rise up in large numbers next November, much of this problem can be fixed by taking some of those democrat seats, like harry reid and robert byrd and others.

The opinions of Freepers who don't vote "because it won't make a difference" simply don't count.

Joe Schwartz is an anti-gun, pro-abortion, liberal puke, that only got the Rep. nomination because of the cross-over vote in the primarys!

He is conservative on a few issues, but on most he is a liberal puke.
