So what do you do -- do you just sit out every election in Massachusetts then?

Not at all. I voted for and campaigned for Republicans, whenever the party had someone serious running. I voted for Perot his first time, and campaigned for him. I campaigned on the county level for the most sane choices for sherriff. I got involved in the nomination process with the Republican town committee.

So you are bowing your head in shame now, just like you told everyone else to do?

I voted for Perot his first time, and campaigned for him.

You know and I could have guessed that too. I'll bet you started out as a member of the "Buchanan Brigades," at the time he was brandishing a pitchfork and that Uncle Sam hat.

So, looks like I have you to "thank" personally for the election of Bill Clinton in 1992.

Bill Clinton was only elected with a plurality in 1992 and in 1996 with your Li'l General in there who got rich on the government tit himself by automating the Social Security system and was just as much a part of the problem as any other Beltway Bandit ever was.

Perot was as much a champion for the self-righteous as was/is Pat Buchanan. Neither have done anything substantive to progress the cause of conservatism.

Perot has vanished, and Buchanan is just another has-been establishment "conservative" who is about as meaningful as another Reagan speechwriter glom-on like Peggy Noonan, who mistakenly believe their words somehow made Reagan what he was. Both are pompous self-righteous sell-outs. Perot was never anything more than an opportunist with a vendetta against anything "Bush."

Your posts have just proved my point. You have absolutely no reason to think of yourself as such a purist, and least of all in a way that has you telling others to hang their heads in shame.

Maybe there's still some land up there in Townsend, MA for sale at that old JBS "end- times" hangout with the bomb shelters once known as "Patirot's Place," where you can sit and judge the Conservative perfectionism of others.

Start hanging your head in shame over that Perot vote, and admit the fact that Weld was no conservative.

Spare us all the lectures.
