The spanking they deserve: NRCC gets an earful (Conservatives BLAST McCain, RINOs, etc.!)

FIVE HUNDRED PLUS postings from conservatives today alone, giving McCain and the NRCC RINOs a blistering earful! See for yourselves, by all means! ;)

[KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle]

Ping! ;)

I am a local-level GOP officer, and the party will more than likely not be getting my vote for president this fall.

[freekitty]

I wonder why the Republican party is doing this?

[Patrick1]

You have to wonder if these fools simply print off these emails and head to the nearest pub and laugh their butts off at these “bitter, God, Gun and law abiding Americans”.

[KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle]

I wonder why the Republican party is doing this?

To which "this" are you referring, pray: allowing conservative voters to righteously lambaste them online, or committing electoral suicide...? ;)

[Brad’s Gramma]

GOOD stuff there......I wonder if it’ll have any effect?

Sadly, this is WAY too late in the game.

I was one 'til 2006. One of the reasons I resigned is because I would be obligated under our bylaws to support the R nominee and I was concerned it would be McCain.

If your bylaws require you to support the R nominees, then I would respectfully suggest the correct course of action is to submit your resignation. But your bylaws may be different than ours.

[zeestephen]

This is MUST SEE.

The outpouring of Conservative anger (near 500 comments as I write this) to Tom Cole's letter at NRCC.org is beyond description.

[org.whodat]

PLEASE….you are kidding??!! John McCain is the republican candidate for President. So, which LIBERAL should I vote for. Let’s see OBAMA(Marxist), CLINTON(Marxist), MCCAIN(Open border/amnesty liberal). I have changed my party affiliation to independent. I will not vote for anyone who says one thing during the primary and when they think they have the nomination locked up, tell how they truly feel. John McCain “DIDN’T GET IT” after-all.

I did not write that but it sure sounds like me!!!! And I agree 100%!!!!

I especially like this one:

The Republican Party was birthed when the Whigs, a party of elites and privilege, decided that they did not care what their base thought, and just followed the money.

The Whigs disappeared in history like frost on a sunny day, and now it is the Republicans turn.

The Republican leadership does not care what the base thinks and wants to follow the money.

I am convinced that my Party is too far gone to save, and that the soul of this Party,(a commitment to nationalism, lawfulness, the Constitution, and personal liberty) has been replaced by love of big government and trans-national globalism.

I will vote for individual conservatives, if they are Republican, but the Party will get no money, no support for McCain, and no loyalty as long as they follow this course.

I will vote for Bob Barr, if I can, and pray that the election machines will actually tally my vote.

I will pray that the next conservative Party to rise in the ashes of the Republican Party will learn from our mistakes.

They don’t care what we - conservative think. And that’s the problem, isn’t it?

Fro the first time in my voting life, I am seriously considering a protest vote - like a Duncan Hunter or JC Watts write-in. All three of the current candidate bozos make me ill.

[CottonBall]

This one has a great idea:

Now that we know we're not alone. We might want to stop sitting in front of the computer screen and march on DC. A conservative alliance that shows we exist. We'd be cool about, all we need to do is show up quietly, hold up signs and get there attention. It wouldn't be a big rah rah yell fest, more like the schoolyard scene in Hitchcock's "The Birds"

The eerie silence in the scene from 'The Birds' as more and more conservatvies show up and stand silently, but increasingly more tense and menacing, sounds perfect.

[calcowgirl]

Wow! That is some outrage... and some humor thrown in.

The GOP's new base: Illegal Aliens and Polar Bears. Better hope they turn out in droves this year.

Hilarious. I’d join in if I thought they’d give a damn. Unless you have a hundred grand in bundled cash, they just don’t care. Why should they? They really believe you have nowhere else to go.

[bill1952]

>Illegal Aliens and Polar Bears. Better hope they turn out in droves this year.

They had better hope that they throw in some hard cash, as well...

[CottonBall]

Why hasn't there been a second Contract With America? It worked in 94. It would probably work again. It's so simple. Maybe it could make a pledge to drill for oil in the US and Gulf and build more refineries, eliminate earmarks, secure the border, go after gangs that terrorize our cities, etc.

This one makes a good point. The Rs have gone so far left, they don't even remember what the Contract was about.

[austinaero]

I really liked the email that contained the phrase “tighten the belt or lose the pants.”

Ain’t it the truth.

[CottonBall]

The true definition of "insanity" is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. The accompanying illustration in the encyclopedia shows someone voting for a Republican in the hopes that they will actually stand up for conservative principles some day...

Posted: Ted from Hayward on May 16, 2008 at 11:04 PM

I'm saving this one for the next time someone posts that we NEED to vote for McCain and then MAKE him act conservatively...

[CottonBall]

I really liked the email that contained the phrase “tighten the belt or lose the pants.”

LOL! I liked that one as well. So far, I've only seen one pro-RNC/pro-McCain post and one ambivalent post. All the others could've been written by Freepers! (not the McCainiacs, I mean)
