The WORST Republican is heads and shoulders above the BEST democrat, because democrat presidents are beholden to unions, leftist blogs, peaceniks, Hollywood, etc. and we would be in serious trouble with one at the helm.
The use of the term "true conservative" raises some red flags with me. I never hear it used by people I condider very conservative, such as DUncan Hunter or Jeff Sessions. The reason they don't use it, you see, is because it implies that "true conservatives" are the only ones who have the answers and everyone else is a poseur. It is an off-putting term wich most people recognize as a prelude to insulting people who don't agree with them.
Now, either you are a conservative who is misguided and thinks that your lame insults qualify as biting wit and satire (which, trust me, they do not) OR you are deliberately trying to cause problems amongst Republicans and conservatives. I don't know which it is, but I will tell you that if you continue to insult people simply because they support someone you do not, I will sadly conclude you are an imposter and disruptor.
I'm willing to bet, if elected President, Rudy will continue down the same road that all the DEMONRAT Presidents have."
Repub Presidents just slow down the decline of America. They don't stop it or reverse it.
They all follow the same agenda.They all push for the same goal.
During my first enlistment in the Marine Corps, I was on I&I duty with, what became a great friend and room-mate, a fellow Marine named Dennis Treiner.
He was a great Marine and guy, but he did something extremely stupid, and paid the ultimate price.
While kidding around (yes, he should have known better) he pointed what he "knew" was an unloaded 1911 .45 at his head and pulled the trigger (he was making fun of the Russian roulette scene in the movie "Deer Hunter"), instantly killing himself in front of me, another Marine, two female friends from his hometown, and his young fiance (this was in out out-in-town duplex).
Did I turn anti-gun, anti-2nd Amendment after this senseless death of a great friend? Of course not. I did not blame the inanimate object, but the stupidity of my friend. Just as I don't blame the firearms misused by a criminal or a crazed individual. That is misguided and flawed logic.
I don't give ANYONE a break on that type of "logic", even a great man like Ronald Reagan.
Please add me the Rudy Ping List.
Are you one of those CFR/Tri-lateral-commission conspiracy theorists?
Or - are you more like me and just pretty cynical about the fact that few Republicans truly know the Constitution?
You name is added.
Welcome! :)
I grew up in Tulare and went to many farm equipment shows...hope Rudy enjoys the small-town folk and the farmers. It will probably feel like he has gone to another planet or at least twenty years back in time.--for the good!
I have never been to Tulare. Is it pretty nice.
I have 99% farmers in my family. I love John Deere Green and Caterpillar Yellow ... and feed stores and the like.
I see several names have been added today! Wonderful.
The new Rep. Pete Session endorsement was great! He's got a 98% lifetime conservative rating. Of course, the ragers are saying he was paid off. LOL
It will be interesting to see just how many good conservatives they are willing to smear as all of this unfolds.
Yeah proclaim it from the rooftops Prime Minister Quisling! Great news! The Germans have landed in the fjords!
are you more like me and just pretty cynical about the fact that few Republicans truly know the Constitution?"
I'm not a conspiracy theorists.
(Now, we can see a new world coming into view. A world in which there is the very real prospect of a new world order. In the words of Winston Churchill, a "world order" in which "the principles of justice and fair play ... protect the weak against the strong ..." A world where the United Nations, freed from cold war stalemate, is poised to fulfil the historic vision of its founders.)George Bush March 6, 1991)
I do have eyes and ears though and what I see and hear is both parties don't give a damn for the people or the Constitution.

I've spent some time in the state of New York recently, and was really surprised how rural and "undeveloped" it gets not all that far from NYC.
And soon they vil be fjording the streams in a blitzcrieg on rural-sexual Cauleeforneeah! Are ya ready for some pollytickle grabass??? Rudy and Arnie... The dynamical duo... The Siamese Twins in the big new "Republican" circus tent!!!
Tickets to this circus will not be sold to genuine conservatives clinging to antiquated Party Platforms constucted of good constitutional concerns. Rural Americans vil be re-educated in the politically correct pollytickle thinking of blue voting zone leaders from Hollyweird and Broadway high kicking drag dancing routines, etc.
What fun!!! I'm so excited!!! And I just can't hide it!!!
Figures.
Must be time to set up Rudy's Cheering Section right next to Arnie's Amen Corner. I see FO is prepared to handle them both, although she may need to order some additional pom-poms, pennants and streamers...
There is now only room for you in the GOP Big Tent if you are an easily led party cultist with malleable principles, if any principles at all. Perfect place for we all know whom.
Liberals have the continual din of the MSM, the government sucklings on their plantation and the spawning grounds in our government schools on their side! We only have our CONSISTENT commitment to the constitution, our faith in God Almighty and each other to rely upon!!!
We shouldn't be sittin around at our keyboards lookin for ways to rationalize non-conservative politicians into something we then believe is "conservative enough!" That's called trying to make silk purses out of sows ears!!!
You're right! It certainly hasn't worked with Arnold and it will not work with Rudy either. I admire the man, but I won't vote for him for President of the US, even if he's the only Repub left standing!!! It wouldn't be right!!! Genuine Conservatives must have STANDARDS!!!
Now you've gone and done it, Wasp! I can hear the echos already emanating from Arnie's Amen Corner and from Rudy's Cheering Section: "You're supporting Hillary for president...".
Heh---nice zinger.
Hey! This little mob of mobsters on here that freak-out over Hitlery, or Angelides, or Bustamante, or any manacing Demonicratick un-candid candiate and try so desparately to drive the rest of us like sheep into voting for some liberal RINO is getting more ridiculous with each insane borrow, tax and spend socialistic gimmic their girlyman Governor puts over on all the people they unduly influenced with that fear driven drivel!!!
I just posted and pinged you to the lawsuit thread one of ours has had to file against the elstupido Prop 71 that says "let's canabalize aborted babies cells on the unproven theory that those cells will bring miracle cures from us playin God!!!"
See where this stupid philosophy of sophomoric sophistry of what Rush today called situational politics and I call the politics of expediency where we try to scare our conservative FRiends into bending conservatism away from it's standards to include even leftist RINO's is leading us? Right down into Death Valley!!!
And have Planned Parenthood launder the money for embryos and hand it back to Democrat candidates. Planned Parenthood "donations" aren't chump change.
