I can only come to one conclusion about all these whiners wanting to split the R party and form a 3rd party.

Obviously they all stayed home and none of them went to the polls last time and voted for any of the Senators or Congresscritters because none are willing to take the responsibility that their votes helped put them in DC and re-elected GWB.

Must have been the democRATs that voted for the Republicans we have there now.

As in the post above, Patriotism is a love of country and willingness to sacrifice for it. Political parties make no difference when it comes to this.

If the Republicans no longer represent my views on IMPORTANT issues that affect my back pocket, then I will no longer support them. Social issues come in a very distant second.
