Earth to muawiyah, earth to muawiyah...

Planet earth calling muawiyah...

You are NOT going to change the usage of the word RINO with your pontifications.

Please, muawiyah, if you receive this message, acknowledge.

Over.

I was around using the term RINO decades back THE CORRECT WAY.

Look, your misuse of the term is little more than a failing of the public school system.

If you mean LIBERAL use that term. If you mean LEFTWINGTARD then use that one. Or, if you mean LEFTARD, use that, but please, please, please, don't misuse RINO.

What's really going on here is that DEAL was a RINO who turned up out of the ranks of Democrat professional politicians from the Conservative direction. No doubt you've forgotten that there used to be Conservative Democrats, but there were. It would not have been correct to term him a LIBERAL, but it certainly was proper to note that he was a RINO, and as so many have said "Once a RINO, always a RINO".

We also have some who want to PURGE all RINOs. That's fine if you think they're all Leftwingtards, but what about that handful of Souvrn' Conservatives who used to caucus with the Democrats? This Deal guy is one of 'em. He's a RINO. And as Newt can tell you he served his purpose by swapping the caucus who belonged to and voting for a Republican for Speaker. We took legislative control and saved the Republic for a time.

I see no benefit whatsoever in distorting the meaning of a word just to cover up the fact that we had a bunch of Freepers decide they wanted to back a RINO in Jawja! There were other Freepers who were backing the woman.

Notice it was a tight race ~ down to just hundreds of votes in a big turnout and that's far more important.
