Yes we do need a purging of the Republican party. We do not need a third party as Beck insinuates. (If he’s not insinuating that, then he’s a very poor communicator). The Republican party already has the conservative platform. We just need people with those values and a comittment to the Republican platform. A party is only as good as the people you elect.
Who are you going to purge and where are you going to purge them to? You CANNOT win the presidency without the votes from a majority of moderates and Independents. That’s a fact. Purge the GOP of everyone you happen to disagree with on one issue or another and you will hand over the executive branch of government, and the senate, to the Democrats permanently. That’ll show those RINOs, won’t it?
FrdmLvr, If the day comes that Beck openly calls for people to vote 3rd party, then I will openly criticize him.
Until that day comes I say this: he’s doing a good job introducing conservatism to many who would otherwise just not get it at all.
And Bennett and Levin should cut him some slack. Especially Bennett, who’s pretty much an intellectual lightweight.
