Right on.
I do agree with you there. The primaries were really stupid. But I just wish our candidates would have realized that and hung in longer.
But giving them President Hussein is just so wrong. Don’t yyou see that?
Used to be one of my favorites over at Townhall. Heck with him.
Thats probably including all the besotted Republicans who are voting for Obama, too.
I know you’all are doing what you think is right in your own way, but sucjh disjointed efforts are so hopeless. It would be so much better if we could face it united.
Fair5ness doctrine, abortion, tax cuts, WOT, to name a few very important issues. Obama is a disaster.
None of them? He is prolife etc. But I am just tired of talking. I am going to just give up. No one listens anyway. I am just tired.
I totally agree but with Obama, they won’t have to sneak across the border. They will be welcomed with open arms.
That statement is so true. One of El Rushbo’s undeniable truths of life.
Man factmart, this has been a brutal thread.

I can't question it. I can't affirm it either. Which is better a knife in the back or a knife in the stomach?
McCain is a hard-line proponent of victory in Iraq. He has pledged to lower taxes. He has always fought governmental corruption, even if that has led him to absurd extremes like campaign finance reform. He is a strong pro-life voter. He says he will veto any bill that has any earmarks. In 2006, McCain received a 65% rating from the American Conservative Union, which measures whether members of Congress are in line with conservatives on major issues. In 2005, his score was 80%.
John Robert's seat on the DC Circuit has been unfilled since 2005. I guess the Gang of 14 is ensuring that the seat goes to an abortion sustainer.
Samuel Alito's seat on the 3rd Circuit is also unfilled since 2006. I'm sorry but John McCain is no friend of life.
Conservatives are going to try the "Nuclear Option" this time, since McCain refuses to use it against the evil liberals. The comity of the Senate is a false god and not worth sacrificing children to.
Couldn’t agree more. Good points.
I voted for Romney after Hunter and Thompsn backed out. I would have voted for Huckebee if he were a choice.
Now we have crap and have to make the best decision.
Well, you are consistent. But I ma not chosing a candidate on fear, just on the only available options.
But I have an open mind - if the McCainiac annoys me enough, I’ll write in Teddy Roosevelt.
I just cannot let those other issues go as long as there is any chance to hold that ground. As much as I dislike McCain and what he has done and the way he has betrayed us on a number of critical issues, I still believe we would hold some ground and it is worth holding.
Particularly on abortion and the war. There is blood on the ground in both, real blood...and I cannot let it be ceded to the Democrats because to me, it would mean it was shed in vain.
But that's just my view on it.
Conservatives are a minority in a minority party.
My question is: What are you going to do about it?----Whine and throw up hatred or channel your energies into a new party?
So....what do you want to do: Rage against the GOP or channel your energies into something productive?
Thanks! :-)
With McCain, there is a rational hope and recongnition that despite his betrayal that there is some high ground remaining...and this is not so much any kind of endorsement for McCain (I detest the way he has betrayed conservative principles in several critical areas) as much as it is a hard look at the reality, leaving emotion aside.
...with the Democrats in charge, there will be no high ground whatsooever that we can hold. The unborn, our own soldiers, those who have fought hard for so long for our current positioning on the SCOTUS, will all be cast out and aside IMHO with the wash.
As much as I detest McCain and his actions on immigration, free speech, global climate, etc. I cannot stand by and see the others be cast aside as well.
But that's just my opinion. I certainly understand the emotion and the passion behind other strong conservatives whom I respect who will have nothing to do with the man (McCain) whatsoever.
