When they start acting like Republicans again?
Are you EVER going to look at what is good for this country, not just yourself?
I consider what is good for the country all the time. I don't consider rampant wasteful spending as good for the country. I don't consider blatant corruption as good for the country. I don't consider failure to control our borders as good for the country.
It is what it is; you need to learn to deal with it instead of tilting at windmills.
Ah, so I should just accept that the GOP is now the other party of big government.
Unless you just like to "tilt."
I prefer to win elections. Reagan won in 1980 by being conservative. The GOP won in 1994 by being conservative.
The GOP lost in 2006 because they drifted so far away from core conservative values that they no longer offered a clear choice to swing voters between the GOP and Democrats.
And for that, I am attacked by the likes of you - you fail to debate a single point that I have raised, points backed up by exit polling data and the election results, both this election and past ones.
All you do is yell "GOP BASHING" - which apparently is all your side has left. Unfortunately for your side, it's just noise now, echoing around the empty shell of what the GOP has become.
Time to put some substance back into the party if we want to win in 2008.
Reagan wasn't near as "conservative" as the likes of you wrist slitters. In fact, when he was running, he was attacked by the "purist" in the party (but, hey, who hasn't been, right?).
And fyi nobody "debates" you anymore because you've been bitching about SOMETHING about the GOP since you signed up here.
You're never FOR anything, always AGAINST something.
Unfortunately for your side, it's just noise now, echoing around the empty shell of what the GOP has become.
The NOISE is coming from the likes of you who do nothing except bitch and moan because nobody agrees with you.
Time to put some substance back into the party if we want to win in 2008.
If by "substance," you mean listen to the likes of you, you've got a real shock coming; if you think the GOP didn't learn about counting on your type of vote you're crazy.
The GOP will now move to the middle to attract the moderates that are independent and/or Democrats to form a concensus out of MATURE people who aren't on the extremes of each end of the parties.
Finally the GOP has realized that even though they pander to you all, you cannot be counted on to put the country first, that you will always always find YET SOMETHING ELSE to be upset about -- and that you don't care enough about the country to put it before youself and your tunnel vision agenda.
Congratulations; you are now totally irrelevant.
And whatever you think of us, we would NEVER EVER let a Democrat get elected. Too bad you can't say the same.
Enjoy the next two years; you wanted it and you got it.
