MSNBC Conservative: Carlson Didn't Vote For Bush, May Not Support 2008 GOP Candidate

Offended again!

My Gosh, you must be miserable.

I think you need to assess the reality of having two large political parties that are both going for the apple.

There is no frigging way in heck, to have what you want.

You can either pull the wagon or ride, but you cannot tell the wagon where to turn, you can only participate in the conversation, hope someone likes what you have to say, and by doing this you receive a share of the prize.

If you fight it, you get no prize, and no chance to be heard.

And you say that I'm the problem?

I've been on that wagon, sometimes riding, and sometimes pulling for nearly 40 years. To me, you are the unruly kid in the back who needs discipline or perhaps he/she should not be riding.

The Republican Party is a large community that shares many political beliefs, and all of the shared beliefs are indeed conservative. But you cannot expect everyone to march in lockstep. It will never happen. Not ever.....

That is the reality, and you need to understand it. Actually liking it is not a requisite.

"Next he'll tell us he is a dancer."

You're confusing him with Ron Reagan. (Not Ronald Reagan)

[SWAMPSNIPER]

If it is Giuliani or McCain, they are not republicans.
What someone is must be more than a letter after a name, it should indicate that you have certain standards.

[roses of sharon]

Yes, but perfect conservatives among us who vote to get Dems elected, get 2 weeks of attention from the MSM!

And for 2 glorious weeks they are credited with giving the Republicans the punishment they so rightly deserve.

Producing nothing of course, how utterly useless they are.

[Peach]

Wait a minute. You told me you won't support my candidate because he's a flaming Democrat. So I'm still waiting. Who is my candidate?

[top 2 toe red]

I've never heard so many phony conservatives lately; ready to hand the election to the Democrats by deciding they just can't support a candidate because they're one issue voters.

Don't forget..."the GOP must be taught a lesson" conseratives, too.

[hotshu]

Old Friend,

"The Donner Party republicans

The Unappeasable Republicans.

The POS republicans....they suffer from Perpetually Offended Syndrome."

So do you fall into group 1, 2, or 3? Representation means more than party to me!

I consider myself a conservative first. If, in a given election, the Republican candidate running to represent my views reflects my views better than the democrat, I'll vote for him or her.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Don't have time for silly games, just cut to the chase and commit yourself.

[Peach]

Uh, no. I don't think I've ever even been on a Katherine Harris thread.

[Peach]

Silly games? You're the one who said I have a candidate. It's up to you to prove your statement or admit you've lied.

[hotshu]

Damn! When I join a thread late, I really should read all the posts before I reply.

I just tapped out basically a dupe of your post 44. GMTA. LOL!

[Peach]

Oh, yes. That's the fourth group. Of course, half of those (at least) are really Democrats who come here to stir dissent. LOL

[B Knotts]

Uh, no. I don't think I've ever even been on a Katherine Harris thread.

You're not missing much. It gets ugly.

[Peach]

That's what I've heard.

[Tall_Texan]

Tucker Carlson is an Arianna Huffington conservative. CNN signed him purely to laugh at him. MSNBC signed him because they saw how pathetic (liberal) he was on CNN.

[Mo1]

Tucker Carlson described himself as "a real conservative."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ... what a load of BS

[Jackson Brown]

Don't expect me to vote for a republican that doesn't fulfill my expectations as a conservative.

So you ignore my point and retreat to your first comment...ignoring the life or death issue on the table.

"""So you'll help elect the democraps -- into a majority -- who'll gut the security laws and policies that could make the difference between the Islamo-facists attacks successfully hitting the US or not.""" Jackson Brown

Let's see how many "conservative expectations" get fulfilled when the democraps take over.... look forward to liberal judges put on the bench for life, hikes in taxes that kill the expansion, etc. -- plus gutting of the patriot act and destructing of all the other policies that protect the US....not to mention a shift to EU style appeasement for Iran and N. Korea -- and terrorists organizations -- while they get stronger.

[California Patriot]

Yes. The only satisfaction we can take in the probable death of American liberty and independence: The liberals will suffer along with the rest of us. Unlike the rest of us, they will deserve it.

[top 2 toe red]

Until people put their foot down and DEMAND changes the same old crap will continue.

You can pitch all the fits you want to, throwing around blame here, there and everywhere...but, there will NEVER be enough bullheaded uncompromising people such as yourself to ever form ANY KIND of party and put that party in power.

Since the Republican Party will never be what you are trying to make it be, good luck on that "oh, so principled new minority party" you're going to need to form in oder to satisfy your "PURITY of the PARTY" Demands.

Hope you enjoy being in the minority for the rest of your life.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

You sound exactly like a regular at DU, she goes by the name of "iverglas"!
