Give me a friggin break!! Do you think the day will ever come when I will vote for a RAT? You have to be smoking something. I’m beginning to think this guy is a kook.
“Beck’s take on the two party system is more candidate over party”
Exactly. Republicans treat conservatives like red-headed step kids and take their support for granted. Rationalize all you want but the GOP (McCain, Giuliani, Romney, the Bush’s, Steele, Lugar, et al.) hold us in the same contempt the lefties do for “clinging” to God, guns and country: Look at the way they’re treating Gov. Palin now. She’s still getting the same disrespect from McCain & Co. that she gets from Democrats.
But organizing Democrats is easy: it’s as easy as training Germans to make machineguns. Weaklings want to be told what to do. Organizing “rogue” Republicans, however, is like trying to herd cats, since a group which clings to freedom, (as well) has as many leaders as it has members.
There are still many here who say “punch or touch the name with the `R’ after it, regardless... .” We’ve seen where that got us so pardon my French, but screw that.
Well, sorta. For many elections the Dem is more conservative and less corrupt personally than the RINO opponent. But once those Dems get to DC, they are read the riot act by the Dem leadership, threatened and if necessary blackmailed until they vote lockstep with Pelosi and Reid. Remember that EVERY Dem voted for Pelosi or Reid for leadership posts. As Rush sez, in the end a Blue dog Democrat is a Democrat first.
I agree. The current schism between the two major parties hasn’t always been as urgent a battle. In my childhood, before the start of the welfare & entitlement society, you didn’t really have to choose between a pro-American and anti-American party. But now, the Dems can’t be trusted with the defense of this nation.
If I have the choice of two parties without having to sacrifice the Constitution and our nation’s very survival, I’m okay with that.
