Anyone who really cares about our country needs to understand, and fast, that the Republican party is no longer the conservative party.Yeah! I mean, look what's happened over the past five years! Lower taxes, less abortion, a stronger military, a decimated terrorist infrastructure, stronger 2nd Amendment rights, concealed carry legislation passing all over the nation, conservatives on the Supreme Court and lower benches. Damn them all!!
And you border bunnies wonder some of us come onto these insanity threads simply to laugh at you. :-D

While I agree with you on those points, one cannot deny the 500lb gorilla in the room, ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION! Which in a few years will easily wipe out all of those things you previously mentioned by socialist voting criminals.

Lower taxes? Yeah, I'll take what I can get, but how many in the GOP have even acknowledged the existence of the Fair Tax? Bush sure as hell hasn't.
Less abortion? Yeah, right. Please cite some evidence. It may be a little less, but even Bush's so called "conservative" court appointments are as beholden to the unconstitutional Roe v. Wade as ever.
Stronger military? The Army is lowering standards in order to keep up recruitment. Our military is forced to fight with one hand tied behind their back in Iraq. They're forced to engage in "nation building" rather than defeating the enemy. That's in direct contradiction of what Bush promised.
Decimated terrorist infrastructure? Is that why we have caught terrorists on the battlefield in Iraq and Afghanistan who were once held in Gitmo or Abu-Graib but had been released by the administration in an effort to coddle the terrorists and their supporters? Is that why there are still daily bombings in Iraq? Is that why Bin Laden and Al-Zarqawi are still at large? Is that why Bush & Co. insists on trying terrorists as criminals with Constitutional rights rather than try them in a military tribunal?
Conservatives on SCOTUS? Have you forgotten Harriet Miers? It's people like the "border bunnies" who turned that fiasco around. Also, Roberts and Alito have yet to prove themselves. If Bush wanted to be absolutely sure of the court's Constitutional leanings he could have easily chosen to appoint a Janice Rogers Brown and the GOP in the senate could have pulled the Constitutional option.
The GOP is either incredibly weak and incompetent or purposefully ignoring the issues they were elected on. The more you RINO Bushbots attempt to alienate us the more you're screwing up the chances of your precious Republican party. And face it. You need us to win. Hopefully another Clinton presidency will eventually wake you people up, but I doubt it.

And you border bunniesLOL...still trying to come up with a term that will make people feel ashamed for wanting secure borders? Sorry, but "border bunnies" is just too cute, fuzzy and adorable to be insulting. "Border trolls" was better, though none of these little disparaging terms are going to make anybody feel regret for expressing concern about national security and national sovereignty.
