Cut-n-Run Conservatives buy a different lie!

After the Bush administration and short-lived Republican congress cut-n-run on their conservative base by spending like a drunken Kennedy, defending illegal immigration like Howard Dean counting new Latino voters at the border and fighting the war on terror like they need traitor John Murtha’s approval, some conservatives are looking to cut-n-run from their not-so-conservative party.

While an understandable sentiment, real conservatives face their enemies, they don’t run from them. According to third party supporters, when unwanted intruders break into my home and threaten my family, I should give them my house and go build a new one elsewhere.

But where I come from, shame on me for letting them set foot in my home to begin with and if I don’t toss them out on their ear in short order, something is wrong with me, not my house.

Your family told you your opinions are no longer welcome just shut up and do as you're told, you can do the chores but you can't sleep on the good bed nor rest on the good furniture, you can take out the trash but don't dare eat from the good china or ask for any more sustenance than crumbs from the table. Just shut up, pay your dues, and like it. Yeah, it's your home in name only, (HINO).

Good luck getting them to vacate the premise.

As predicted, the RNC came away from the mid-terms believing that they must run centrist Republicans (fiscally conservative and socially liberal, which has never worked as a policy and never will) capable of attracting votes from both sides of the aisle if they hope to win in ’08. They are once again moving in exactly the wrong direction at the national committee level and people who still think they should send them yet another message with third party protest votes, like ’92, ’96 and ’06, are kidding themselves into electing another Clinton administration.

I agree. It's time to dump RINOs including the leftwing ex-mayor.

Conservatives don't need to find a new party. Liberal Republicans do.

I agree. And since we can't tell the C-A-R conservatives from trojan horse liberals, let's just ignore them the same way they ignored our troops in 2006.

Post 4 answered you perfectly!

Cut-n-Run if you want. Real conservatives will stay and fight and eventually win, with or without your help.

Smart conservatives have learned their lesson. You're right that many who have not learned that lesson are either trojan liberals or equally useless.

Lieberman was a conservative Democrat all the way. He did the right thing in running under the (I) after being shoved out by hardcore socialists currently running his party. But he was never an Independent, other than he has a mind of his own.

The I party isn't even a real party. It's a catch-all for those who need a temporary home.

Then you are homeless...

Unless you have chosen a new third party home, in which case, you have endorsed "minority rule". Not a conservative value...

That's because they learned the lesson of multi-party division and the power of conservative unity. You need to learn it too.

It makes no difference what Joe Lieberman is today. Fact, he won on a third party ticket.

Gotta tell ya.....we'd see who was homeless if anyone tried to break into my home. The same goes for this country. If people got their act together, like we did during WWII, these problems would be solved real quick. Enough of the fancy words. Deeds are what counts and our enemys know that better than the modern day American does. Our society is fast turning into a bunch of candy asses. Sad thing is, they are proud of it.

You're kidding yourself. Every individual who voted for him knew him and had voted for him for years, as a DEMOCRAT.

1000% correct!

Self-centered, spineless, cut-n-run wimps focused on their own narrow interests and running from their enemies like children to their mothers skirt...

AMEN!
