When are you going to run? Frankly, I'm sick of purists like you who scream and yell that no one is good enough but you just don't seem to want to give the rest of us the chance to vote for someone perfect, such as yourself.

We have a couple of talk show hosts around here who do the same thing. They're too good to vote Republican and they're too good to get in there and get their hands dirty to work to make the Republican party better.

I'm sure we all want the same thing but I bet you're doing nothing to improve the situation.

Have you run in a primary? Have you backed a Republican candidate in a primary that you deem worthy?

Put up or shut up!! You, and those like you are irrelevant. All you can do is help make things worse by helping RATS. You do more harm than good. Either get in there and try to make things better or SHUT UP!!!

Sorry, but between the purists on FR and these holier-than-thou talk show hosts around here, I'm fed up. You only belittle the work the rest of us are doing trying to achieve the exact same things you want.

You're right. I would like to "do something" rather than just complain. However, I don't think the something I would do would involve voting at the national level in the general election. Of course I always vote in the primary, but sadly, the people I would support would have no chance of being supported by the mainstream RINOs who control the party. Frankly, I believe that we have no chance of changing the country democratically, at the ballot box. Rather, we need a "revolution" metaphorically, and probably in a generation or two, when people wake up to what's happening, literally. What can I do now? Have a lot of children, raise them properly, un-indoctrinated by the government schools, teach them the real history of our country and founding, teach them (and myself) to live a self-sufficient lifestyle, and work to network with others who feel similarly. There are many things conservative patriots could and should do to take our country back. I just don't think voting for RINOs or supporting the best of two evil parties is one of them. Thanks for your passion, I appreciate it and share it, but I just think it could be better directed than by hoping and trusting a Washington insider to "do the right thing." When it comes to the liberty of my family and my own God given rights, you better bet I'm a purist.
