Jim Leach of Iowa and Chuck Bass of New Hampshire (2 RINOs who, I believe, voted to keep us dependent on Middle East oil by voting against ANWR) are on right now discussing what the future of the Republican party is and/or should be.
Typical comment by Leach: He just said he is concerned when (paraphrase here) "one part of one party" is in charge of the budget.
Praise for the "moderate Republicans" all around.
If any of Bass's and Leach's constituents are able to get hold of these lamebrains, please do so.
Political junkies who like to listen to these clowns, listen in...you'll see a lot of fawning about "compromise". Enough to make ya sick.
More griping from "The Hill" reporter asking the questions about the "reported delayed Katrina response". Jim Leach says the response was an embarassment...FEMA is fine for small disasters, he says, but not for big ones...Leach is a joke.
The MSM whose line CSPN follows has been hyping Leach for decades. It means nothing.
To hell with those traitors. It's time they either got in line with the message or got forced out.
I agree. And the extended problem with them doing a lot of interviews, is that the media outlets always have a contrasting opinion clip available when needed to make true conservatives look extreme.
The key is not forcing RINO's out of the GOP. There is room for them too, based on their support for fiscal conservatism. The point really is we need more social conservatives being active in the Republican party, and we need to lead from within each precinct, county and state.
If we envision the best scenario, Democrats would be gone as a criminal enterprise, and Republicans split into two parties along the obvious lines. At least then we'd all be on the same page for supporting American values, religion, capitalism, a market economy and those thing most important to us.
Why don't you take a good long hard look at the 14 Soros-funded RINOs and tell me how they have a place in the party.
There are precious few GOPers in the Congress who are not Rinos.
There's a great Marine on CSPAN2.. I'll continue watching him and follow the thread... I changed the channel briefly.. can't even look at Leach without feeling sick
For every RINO you can quote in the press I know many RINO's who mostly support Republican candidates and issues when it's needed. I agree it's not easy and I would agree they sometimes win a vote, but in balance I'd rather have them as registered Republicans where we have the chance to persuade them than Democrats following that party line.
Name them.
All.
Exactly. Why watch something you don't enjoy? Check C-SPAN2 BookTV.
I agree that theoretically more raw numbers are better.
But the problem is that the press has been hyping these guys and the Dems have been exploiting the pathetic RINO desire to be loved by Dems. This is demoralizing Republicans who are serious about the party's positions, and it's also royally PO'ing GOP voters and making them think it's not worth voting for Republicans. Which was probably the intention of the press et al in the first place...
*ding-ding-ding* Right on the money! Another great example of how they serve the Democrat Party more than the Republican Party.
Well, with the three lines for call-ins, they're at least 2 to 1 favoring the leftist vent.
All the more reason to purge them like the metastatic cancer they are.
Jack Murtha supports drilling ANWR.
