Oh great. now You are going to designate who is a "true Republican" and who is a "true Conservative"... please give it a break YOU are the type of person who has fractured the base.
ALL Conservatives are "True Conservatives" as they vote their values and morals... are you going to dig in their minds and figure out their beliefs? Because just like with any other group it can mean slightly different things ALTHOUGH the core Values that you present and LIVE by is what defines you!
You have various types of Conservatism... Religious Conservatives, Social Conservatives and like me Constitutional Conservatives, the list goes on... So tell me which is the "True Conservative"?
What has destroyed the Republican party is not Conservatism... because there is little of that left in the GOP, What has crippled the GOP is the complete lack of morals both the politicians and the GOP voter (moderates) who want to "go along to get along" with the "Give Generation" instead of pushing "Conservative" Values and Morals...
So in other words stop trying to blame conservatives for the GOP losses that are taking place, Conservatives DO NOT OWE the GOP its support or votes when the GOP does nothing but spit in the faces of Conservatives, shake their hands on one side and stick a knife in the back with the other!!!
End Rant...
...That would be the “Give Me Generation”
And this goes out to not only the poster but to all the other FR posters out there trying to lay the blame on Conservatives for YOUR party’s losses over the past years, we did just fine with Reagan Conservatism because it included ALL Conservatives... if the GOP wants it back... Earn IT..
End Rant(sequel two)
