“The blood of those who serve is on the hands of each and every one of those who helped Obama by being......sooooo pure and righteous.”
Bull. The only people responsible are those who voted for Obama. So throw your blood on someone else.
McCain going left on the bail-out cost us some fiscal conservatives, so yes, a more all-around conservative candidate would have earned us more votes. The conservatives that you cry about being “oh so pure” (and by that you probably mean social conservatives) actually did show up and do their part. The ones who didn’t show up were the moderates due to the economy/bailout, guilt, class identification, or some other reason. Where I come from, you reward the people who support you, not the cowards who vote for the most liberal President this country has ever seen. I think you’re going to see far more conservatives willing to talk to those who stuck it out than those RINOs who betrayed everything they claimed to believe in.
NinoFan, I’m sure I’m just as angry and emotional tonight as anyone else. So perhaps we can all learn a lesson here. Folks are blaming McCain, I feel that the “base” (from comments I’ve read) are partially to blame for this disaster. Maybe it is time for people to stop playing politics and get to the business of saving this country? And if that means I can’t have exactly what I want on every issue, fine.
As for the here and now....I’m tired, and I’m going to bed. Have a good evening, NinoFan. I do appreciate your comments. :)
