Interesting article.

Stop making promises to us that you don't intend to keep.
Don't tell us how fiscally conservative you are and then vote for the TARP Program.
Don't talk about limited government and then support big government programs.
Don't tell us you care about the rule of law and then support amnesty.

These should be posted on every republican elected officials office and in every Republican campaign headquarters.

There are two more messages:

6. You cannot win elections without the conservative votes, period.

7. Conservatives will no longer vote for the “lesser evil” just because there is an “R” next to the name.

Nice piece.

The GOP needs to support real conservatives or else go the way of the Whigs. I will not prop up a failed party. I vote conservative, and if that hurts the GOP's chances, then they have no one to blame but themselves.

This country can't survive if you're as childish as the Democrats:

That alone speaks volumes.

First point should have been YOU WORK FOR US

The ‘elite’ had better start paying attention. These five points pretty much sum up my attitude.

Get on board or else you will be steamrolled. We are getting fed up and things are gonna change and I’m not talking the hopey change thingy.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr!

Hear, hear! We brung you to the dance, GOP, and we can leave you by the punchbowl all alone. If conservatives don’t see you as worthy of our votes, who will?

[Nosterrex]

If I hear the term “big tent” again, I am going to scream. There is no “big tent,” because there is no tent. McCain and the RINOs burned down whatever tent that there was. We need a new tent. Only a tent built upon a solid conservative foundation is going to stand: smaller government, strict constitutionalist justices, lower taxes, more drilling for oil, and a balanced budget.

Don't tell us how fiscally conservative you are and then vote for the TARP Program.

It is embarrassing to continue reading this garbage from so-called conservatives and republicans. Do some homework for crying out loud and learn what the purpose of TARP was before continuously railing against it.

The perversion of TARP is open to ridicule, but not the original intent.

He left off “ We’re not going to take it anymore”
and restore the constitution...which they claim only gives people the right to due process..and all power belongs to the feds....

A third party will emerge for the 2012 election and that third party candidate may very well win.

[supercat]

A fundamental difficulty, I think, is that both parties are so deeply entrenched in lies that it would be impossible for a truly honest politician to be a member of either. Such a person would either have to either expose the well-entrenched lies of his own party (not likely) or else ignore the lies and quite possibly have to pretend that they are true (difficult or impossible for a truly honest person).

WE have the power to fire you or remove you by other means. You make the choice.
