Vanity: The tale of two parties

[EternalVigilance]

Sorry, but you're sadly mistaken. The nominee is the head of the party. He calls the shots.

And besides, pro-life conservatives laid down a line in the sand long ago: Our participation is predicated on the platform AND the nominees for both President and Vice-President. If they're not all three pro-life, count us out.

You're so filled with fear that you've reached the point wherein you fear, fear, itself.

[Torie]

Our participation is predicated on the platform AND the nominees for both President and Vice-President.

The single issue litmus test trifecta. Maybe I should make stem cells my litmus test. What do you think?

[EternalVigilance]

You're a free American. You can use whatever criteria you want.

Why are you not exhibiting a trust in the Lord?

[EternalVigilance]

“Let us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair; the rest is in the hands of God.” - George Washington

Since I strive daily to make Washington's attitude my own, your assertion about my level of trust in the Lord is unjust.

[onyx]

On the basis of your worrisome and at times, hysterical posts, I am led to think that you've given up on the fact that the Lord's will shall be done.

[EternalVigilance]

Yeah, right. Your "concern" is noted.

I take it you can't see the hypocrisy inherent in what you're averring?

[EternalVigilance]

Do you think it the duty of the Christian to stand by while evil occcurs, and then say, "Oh well, God's will be done?"

[BigSkyFreeper]

Too bad millions of good and decent people will have to suffer the consequences with you...

How many party defections is this? I lost count.

[BigSkyFreeper]

No. We need you.

Damn right you need us. Your continued hanging childish labels on fellow conservatives by calling them RINO's and worst are the knuckle sandwich that turns people off.

And you wonder why you're mocked and ridiculed, you invite it, it would be impolite not to accept it.

[EternalVigilance]

Well, we don't need you so much that we'll stand by while you try to take everybody over the cliff.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Well, we don't need you...

Make up your mind.

[EternalVigilance]

There are limits to everything. Giuliani far exceeds those limits. I'm surprised you can't see something so simple.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Giuliani far exceeds those limits. I'm surprised you can't see something so simple.

Likewise.

They don't think they need pro-family, pro-life, pro-Constitution conservatives.

But you don't want 'pro-Constitution conservatives' do you? You can't use those. 'Pro-Constitution conservatives' to you mean legislation of morality at the federal level, up to and including Amendments if necessary, to enforce your view nationwide. And the first thing a 'pro-Constitution conservative' would do is to recognize the Constitution was intended to be a limitation on the federal government alone. While certain Amendments have changed that by misinterpretation, the intent was a limited federal government with most decisions being made at the state level. The Republican party now consists of those that

A) want big government to roll out programs that soak up more taxpayer dollars and don't solve the problem or
B) want big government to enforce their moral view nationwide and in effect destroy the rights of the separate and sovereign states even more.

I'll vote for Paul in the primary and go fishing on Election Day. You can have it. It's not worth it. And yes everyone please thank me for 'President Hillary' all at once. Freedom also consists of the right to recognize if there's not a difference, sometimes the best choice is to not be involved at all.

[processing please hold]

Dang EV, a couple more and you'll have the whole bee hive stinging you about the face and neck. I do like it when they all descend on one poster, it shows them for what they are, a pack.

[processing please hold]

I'll vote for Paul

Ron Paul?

[EternalVigilance]

Ah, no big deal. Most of them have been about the same business for a very long time. Rudy's candidacy is just the latest opportunity for them to exercise their anti-conservative agenda.
