You know what would really be a sure fire way to reclaim the republican party???

Is to stay home on election day to teach those republicans in Congress a lesson.

Oh! We did that in 2006 and now have no majority in the House to stop this insane immigration bill.

I can't believe we still have people whining about 2006. But more importantly, I can't believe that some people seem incapable of learning even some of the most obvious lessons.

So let's review:

1) Who is the biggest supporter of this bill? That's right - our own Republican President Bush.
2) How many Republican Senators have stood up and said they will do what it takes to stop this bill? That's right - ZERO. In fact, they, along with the President, are calling conservatives ignorant bigots for objecting to the bill.

Now, I want you to think very carefully about the wisdom of returning these same people over and over again to office. The Republican Party is no longer any more conservative than the Democrats. There are, indeed, conservatives in the Republican party, but apparently they are held in low esteem by the party elites. The end result is that voting Republican, in this instance at least, would change virtually nothing, and might even have the negative effect of rewarding liberal behavior in Republicans by returning them to office despite their bad behavior. The only way to save the Republican Party, if it can be saved, is to purge the RINO office holders.

OK. Spell it out just exactly how this is going to work. Give us your plan. Speak in specifics--not generalities.

Actually a few have, including Jeff Sessions from my home state. Most of them are worthless.
