Then you deserve the govenment you get.
You can get yourself removed from their contact lists by asking. It seems to have worked for me so far.
Conservo-republicans have been encouraging blacks to leave the plantation for years pointing out how the Dems make promises, assume their votes, take their votes for granted then do nothing for them, year after year after year.
When are Conservatives going to heed their own advice?
The thing about the NYT story is that the only part that is probably a lie is the part about a sexual relationship. It was a known fact that McCain was accepting campaign donations from every company who had business before his campaign committee. He may not have always voted their way, but he took the money, from airlines and telecommunications companies, particularly.
See post 78.
I was talking with a democrat the other day. She believes that her party is for change (mostly bad IMO) and that the Republican Party survives by keeping people in fear. Reading some of the posts around here, it’s hard not to argue that.

The GOP will rediscover conservatives the day after the election in November. Then, with their built-in scapegoat, the blame can be put at the feet of those who voted their conscience.
Ironic isn’t it? The NYT endorsed our boy Juan, while sitting on a story that could be potentially fatal to him. They played us right out front, and the Republican elites went along for the ride because they viewed Romney as too conservative on illegal immigration.
“Interesting language as I have been making the point for weeks that conservatives are to the republican party what blacks are to the democrats.”
I’ll have to look in my old posts, but I’ve been making largely the same point since I started posting FR back in 2004. Interesting how what was once heresy is now almost accepted.
“I wonder which will wake up first?”
I don’t think either will. Conservatives and leftists are similar in that they’re anxiously looking for a political version of the messiah. They would much rather have some politician “save” them than spend the effort elsewhere in bettering their own lot.
A President McCain does nothing to hinder that, judging by his past.
They're voting for American Idol, and our time is passing away rapidly. The youngest of the pack won't vote, although they'll make a lot a noise. But even now, the 35 year-olds with families are much, much more liberal in their world views. They can't help it, they were inundated with it over the medium of choice: MTV.
If McCain wins, it will be the last of the Old White Man presidents. He's keeping his currency high by appealing to the new "conservative" that isn't.
Just another magnetic shifting of the political process. North is South now.
Some of our worst are better than your best mr GOP

“I said SHOW me the change. Then call me back.
I hope you’re not waiting by the phone for that call.
Amazing Arrogance.
McCain averaged about 30% of the vote in the competitive Republican primaries. Many of those voters were independents and cross-over Democrats.
Add up all the Huckabee, Romney, Thompson, Hunter and some Paul voters. These people did NOT vote for McCain. In most cases, perhaps 20% of true Republicans actually voted for McCain...a some of them were holding their noses.
He acts as if he’s won some huge landslide among Republicans. As predicted, the MSM has already begun to slam him and brainwash the independents. Many of the voters who gave McCain the nomination will move to Obama after a few months of MSM propaganda.
If McCain doesn’t “pander” to the Right, he will lose. The base of the party puts candidates in a position to win. Many conservatives will hold their noses and vote for McCain, but they won’t volunteer, donate, campaign, put out signs, etc...unless he can rally the base.
I can’t believe the McCain campaign folks thought the MSM was going to be on their side. They also thought the Mindlesss Middle would rise up and sweep him to victory?
RINOs are weak fools.
I don’t agree. See post 78.
“She calls the Republican party the fear party.”
She’s half right. The apologists for both parties are very similar in their worldview when it comes right down to it.
