I'm sure it's different this time. Just like every time. They said the same things about Reagan (not that Reagan was perfect, far from it. I'm just using him as an example of how moderates attempt to demonize or marginalize anyone to their right by labeling them "extremists" or "unelectable").
The task ahead of us is to elect a Republican who IS conservative.
Like W was conservative? Or his old man? Or the two losers Dole and McCain?
What you are asking for is a Republican party that is no longer socially conservative, but fiscally conservative only. Country club Republicans. Social conservatives need not apply.
Ronald Reagan was an electable conservative. Ron Paul is neither.
You must not have been around during the 1980 election cycle when Reagan was mocked and ridiculed as a cowboy who was going to start WWIII. By the way, Ronald Reagan disagrees with you about Ron Paul
“Over 155 years later, I am now told this land was stolen from them, despite my nation paying for it, as well as fighting a war to win it. “
As I look back on the recent protests, it seems to me that most of them were Communist agitators, and union goons. The CPUSA is very much a part of this “reconquista “ nonsense.
“If this land was stolen from anyone, the Spaniards stole it from the Indians in California, when they issued the large land grants in the 17 and 1800s, if not in part before that.”
You speak of “actual” history, as opposed to “propagandized” history.
As I said, the task ahead is to nominate a candidate who IS conservative. Showing those photos is irrelevant. There are pictures of Reagan with Tip O'Neill too......in fact the two of them got along quite well.
Not sure what your point is.
Ron Paul is unelectable, and not conservative enough.
Oh you just haven’t seen me lately. Heh heh heh...
Hey! ;-)
Don’t feel bad, I am 148.
Turned 59 on Mother’s Day...
I’m not sayin’ which year. LOL It does have a two, two zeros, and a 1 in it though, although not in that order.
I am sure you have aged like fine wine. LOL
snicker, he he, haw haw, ho ho ho...
“Turned 59 on Mothers Day...”
And that’s why all your friends call you a real mother!
I just turned 56, old man......
So conservatives should shut their mouths and vote for country club Republicans like George W. Bush, Bob Dole, George H. W. Bush, Gerald Ford, Richard Nixon. Got it!
Your opinion that Ron Paul is not conservative enough is strictly based on his foreign policy. Here's what the Gipper had to say about a "muscular" foreign policy.
I know, I know, 9-11 changed everything. Except that the government is as incompetent as ever.
I didn't say anything remotely like that. Good grief! Aren't any of you Paulites honorable people?
Anyway.......thanks for the conversation..............I think.
Ron Paul isn't conservative enough, and he can't and won't win. He'd just better aid and abet another four years of Obama, or conservatives will be furious.
Oh heck, the things I could tell you young man. ;-)
It's been a tradition with me to refrain from buying these self righteous memoirs. I'll make an exception for Cheney, though.
Memo to Mrs. Bush: great job on suppressing your true attitudes over the past 20 years. Too bad you couldn't hold your tongue for another 20.
Had you been a bit more forthright, your husband might still be the President of the Texas Rangers.
I used to enjoy going to the Pacific Dining Car, at 6th & Bixel(owned by my friend Les Moyle). But by the mid 1990’s the area wasn’t safe at night anymore.

The entire, ohioWfan is a "DAMNED LIAR" smear is mitigated by the accuracy of my memory. (I fell off my chair in shock at the time. I knew I was not wrong!)

Any further accusations that stephen did NOT post to me and signal that his bizarre demand to me to stop posting to him was over, are proven false by the reality of this February 4th post.
I DO NOT LIE. Period!
BUMP, stephen. NOW you can ignore me, and I you. I LOVE ya, man! ;*)
Nice try wretch. That was meant for Onyx. Find another and I will give you 10,000.
Your posting the link the OTHER thread where you called me a liar forced me to take the time to find your post TO ME that I accurately remembered and cited.
I am completely vindicated from your acccusation, and it's right here in black and white for all to see.
Your apology will be accepted at any time. Your curses will be rejected.
BUMP
I was correct. You were not.
It's all over.
