The reason pissant will not read your “crap” is because he lacks the mental capacity to do so and respond in a remotely intellectual way. The word tired act comes to mind. But it is pretty amusing to watch.

You are ridiculous and your accusation is unfounded, pure slander. Sad that you cannot defend Palin’s weak electoral standing so you play Leftist identity politics and cry “sexism”. We set the bar higher here at FR.

I have a problem with weak candidates who can’t win a race against 0bama.

“Campaigning for McCain, sending out EMERGENCY fundraiser mailers for the RNC begging for money... I just don’t see these as things that are going to help us take the GOP back from the RINOs.”

Helping Sen. McCain clearly doesn’t help to change the tide within the GOP, but I don’t think it’s an issue at this point. McCain won his primary, and he’s going to be re-elected. There was a personal loyalty issue in play there, so I’ve never had much of a problem with SP supporting the man. Much as I dislike Sen. McCain’s politics, I have to admit that he is very politically savvy.

As for her support of the RNC, remember that part of what the GOP does is GOTV efforts which really benefit all candidates within the party, regardless of how conservative they are. For every Christine O’Donnell or Rand Paul there are several conservatives running down ballot who are simply not going to be able to afford their own GOTV effort. Like it or not, they have to rely on party GOTV efforts to do that work. The RNC can’t do that if it doesn’t have the cash.

Much as I personally dislike the GOP leadership, and lord knows I do, there are some things that the party infrastructure does that are of use. GOTV efforts are on that very short list.

It doesn’t do Sarah Palin or conservatives much good to take over a party whose internal infrastructure has been completely decimated.

Amusing, indeed. On another thread regarding John Bolton that pissyourpants posted I wrote:

"I wonder if he's a big supporter of Mitt and RomneyCare like your current #1 crush, Jim DeMint?

I also wonder if you'll even respond to this post?"

Of course...NO RESPONSE. LOL

Which of my candidates? I support all conservatives.

When someone starts talking about how Conservative they are, and then they back someone like McCain, it causes me to ask some pointed questions. I don’t know one true Conservative that is informed that could vote for a man like John McCain considering what he has been involved in.

I know this sounds like the comments of a harpy to Palin supporters, but it’s a real litmus test for me. If you can back John McCain and his known agenda, you have no scruples at all.

I don’t say this to mean to Palin. I don’t hate the woman. I defend her against certain attacks from the left. I realize she is trying to do good things. I’m just not convinced she’s a Conservative in the true sense, and she seems to be too willing to back folks who will work against our beliefs.

Would she be better than Steele? I would hope so. Steele has been awful, and I supported his appointment. Now I’m very reticent to sign on to another person who has obvious flaws as it relates to Conservatism.

Steele has got to go. She might be a good person. If she’s going to continue to back RINOs, I’m definitely against it.

Sorry. Not trying to be antagonistic.

Well some things never change. You were here 10 years ago fighting for the GOP, and relentlessly attacking anyone who did not agree. Vote for republicans no matter what they stand for. Back then you were in the majority. As your way of thinking took over FR. And many who disagreed with you got pushed out. It took a few years, and a lot of heartache for people to see it was the wrong thing to do. Much damage has been done. We may never recover. But the majority have wised up now as they see what a disaster it was to support the GOP unconditionally. The tea party should have happened 10 years ago. What a better country we would have today if it had. No more RINO’S.

I addressed every issue that you posted in #74.

McQueeg is and always has been a traitor to the Republican Party
Witness the “Gang of Fourteen” just for a minor recent example.

Now we have a moronic lesbian and a psycho Latina on the SJC.
Thanks McQueeg.

Hopefully she’s just triangulating.

” Rather, her support for LOST makes her clueless. Her support for “registration” and “a pathway to citizenship” schemes makes her an amnesty queen. Her support for windfall profits taxes on oil companies makes her a populist. Her support for TARP makes her a GOP toadie. Her support for “doing something” about “real” global warming makes her a gullible beyond repair. Her support for McCain makes her unreliable. And her “common sense conservative” mantra reminds me of exactly of “compassionate conservative”.”

Plus she endorsed 6 RINOS.

No thanks. Sounds more like Ted Kennedy ;-)

I joined only slightly ( some months ) after you did, which is far longer than “10 years” and you were wrong back then, as you are wrong still. If we don’t change the GOP from within, it doesn’t get changed and the Dems keep control of this nations forever.

What’s your advice.............never voting for any GOper, but going for the non-existent uber Conservative, who doesn’t exist?

Ten years ago there was W and who else, on our side, to vote for? Think back..................carefully; do.

As a Republican, Republicans would expect her to support the party

Party over principle, huh?

All I can see here is an opportunist. Like a few other posters said, I'm sure Levin and Rush will tell who everyone should vote for.

Frankly, I don’t believe anything you post.

I remember when Fred Thompson was running in the primaries, and you posted again and again, whatever you could think of, to hurt his chances. Back then your opposition to true conservatism became clear.

Seeing you come out against Palin—the one constitutionalist (and believing Christian) who could win the presidency—doesn’t surprise me.

Any money dumped into the RNC will be used directly against Sarah, hope she realizes this. Wait until after Novemember, you think clowns like Rove and gang have been trashing conservatives? Dole/Bush/McCain were churned out of Primaries, don’t forget that, the primary candidate will be chosen long before a true conservative state gets to vote. Sarah needs to realize the RNC is not her friend, and her greatest threat in 2012, not the democrats, cause if you don’t make the ballet, there’s no use worrying about the democrats.

Oh the GOP is being changed slowly from within. Thanks to the teaparty.

You are a bald faced liar.
I was strongly behind Thompson, and my posting history is available for all to see.

Thanks to a lot of different things; but mostly with the help of Sarah Palin.

Now, answer the questions I put to you.
