"I am the President! Do you understand me? It is no longer We, it is now I am the President!"

Unfortunately LaPierre's concerns and message will be drown out by the "teach them a lession" crowd.
Second Amendment ping!
You're blaming the voters, not the GOP architects who continually refuse to offer us a conservative choice? That's "not helpful".
LOL! I've heard that mantra before. As I said, LaPierre's message will be lost on some people.
If the Pubbies lose the next election it will be the fault of the national leadership and no one else. It won't be the Dems fault, it won't be the legacy medias fault, and it won't be disgruntled conservatives fault.
Bush hasn't missed a single opportunity to miss an opportunity with conservative voters in his second term. He's acting like a frigging lame duck and there's still 2 years left in his term.
Couple that with the absolutely spineless Senate 'leadership' and it's no wonder folks are getting mighty pissed out here in the heartland. If he wants the votes of conservatives for the Republican party he can start doing some conservative things.
He could start by vetoing some spending bills, demanding the Senate Republicans use the Constitutional option in the Senate, and (I'm deliberately saving this for last) do something about the chaos on our southern border.
Sorry to spout in your direction, but these gratuitous little digs at we who are less than thrilled about the course of the second term are not the way to endear yourself to voters.
L
Yeah... so what's new?
I'm off to buy that book today.
Yes, I hear the same thing every election cycle...from the same people. As I said, it's sad LaPierre's message will go MIA because of some.
Does anyone doubt that Shrillery and Soros et al are eager to force the USA and the world into the tyrannical global government???
The evil traitors need removed from public life and sent to be cess pool cleaners in Siberia.
"I am the President! Do you understand me? It is no longer We, it is now I am the President!"
Yeah, yeah, we all hear the same thing from the same people.
Here's the difference. Conservatives are actually getting fed up. We are sick of being told about conservatism, and we see very little of it being championed in DC. We all know it's a winning formula, nobody disputes that- so why does the party who claims to be conservative, act like they're ashamed of it? We go through this over and over. They say 'If you don't vote for us, the Dems will gain power.' We say 'If you don't keep a decent agenda, the Dems will gain power.' The GOP wants the votes, but not the accountability.
In the end, the GOP doesn't want to totally destroy the Dems, because the threat of a lib regime keeps conservatives on the GOP plantation.
One day, we're going to call their bluff. They're playing with fire.
Strange I never notice that out in the real world but I sure do hear it a lot from a small group of very vocal people on FR. I guess that explains why the RNC is doing so well in fund raising.
lol Do they clean cess pools in Siberia? :p
You should get out more 'in the real world'. Plenty of contractors and businessmen are tired of illegal alien labor, and the inaction by the government. We resent the guys that break the law with impunity and gain an unfair against honest folks.
Personally, I gave my GOP donation to the Minutemen this time.
So just where are all those donations coming from to the RNC? They're doing spectacularly well.
I don't know or care. Those two could be the first to start. They well deserve it!
Besides, their cold evil hearts should fit right in.
You sound like those suckling at the gov't teat in New Orleans who complained that their leaders did not help them.
According to you, voters just sit back and wait for the party leadership to name candidates.
Well, if those voters would get off their ass and get involved, they could influence the process from within and steer good candidates into running.
To just sit there and say its the fault of the GOP architects for refusing to offer a conservative choice sounds like a welfare recipient living in public housing and complaining about the garbage in their yard that they themselves left there.
I disagree. I think Soros's only desire is to ruin the U.S. and if that means pretending that he wants guns out of the houses around the world, so be it.
Yeah right. Like I'm going to go down to the GOP office, throw my hat in the ring and get support for a candidacy? They would run screaming!
Cut taxes? abolish the IRS? pass the FairTax? decentralize government power? School choice? vouchers? cut programs? stop subsidizing drugs for seniors? Get out of people's lives and leave them alone?
lol right. I'm not rich enough yet to finance my own campaign. If I was, I would.
