The Senate just voted to keep the filibuster rules unchanged.

Good grief!

These old senile buttholes need to go out to pasture.
They’re braindead!

NO COMPROMISE!

It just never works to our advantage to agree to something with
the Democrats. NEVER!

I posted this the other day, and I’ll repeat it as often as I feel necessary:

Conservatives and Republicans had best recognize that the next election will either be an all-out BIG GAME hunt on OUR side of the ballot, or it will be a wholesale surrender to the left.

How long will we waver between two opinions?? If The Constitution is important then STAND AND DEFEND IT WITH YOUR VOTE!! If not; then go re-register as a damned Democrat and get it the Hell over with!!

In 2012, and beyond, either go all in, or get the Hell out.

THOSE are your TWO choices; there are ONLY those two choices, and for the sake of all you hold dear, you had better disabuse yourself NOW of the fatal idea that a third way exists.

This nation can no longer endure an electorate that indulges itself in the failed notion that there is some la-dee-da “common ground” where we can all stand shoulder-to-shoulder under a starry sky with candles held aloft singing Kum-ba-ya. THAT land exists ONLY in leftist propaganda posters worthy of Mao’s China, the Third Reich, and the old Soviet Union.

There is hot; there is cold, and between the two is a NO-MAN’S LAND.

There is Right and there is Wrong, and between the two there is a NO-MAN’S LAND inhabited only by RINOs and carrion beasts.

So, then, let us ENSURE that, in wake of the upcoming elections, the RINOs remain ONLY as fodder for the carrion beasts.

Let us get shet of them once and for all!

NO MERCY.

NO GRACE.

NO QUARTER.

EVERYTHING IS AT STAKE! ACT LIKE IT!

We will never get what we want until that day we get the Left out of power, and treat them as the impaired lot they are. Dems, and RINO’s have to be eliminated from leadership period. They are the enemy within.

Why does Reid need to cut a deal? They already have a filibuster-proof majority:

51 Democrats
1 Independent
1 Communist
John McCain
Lindsay Graham
Olympia Snowe
Susan Collins
Scott Brown
Lisa Murkowski
Richard Lugar

Wow. Such a deal... a PROMISE! And we know the value those promises hold.

New day, same GOP.

Why don’t the GOP just go play golf or something? They’ll be just as effective at representing their constituencies as if they’re in the Capitol building.

The Dems know that they will be the minority come 2012. All they are doing is setting things up so they can still run the Senate when they no longer have the majority. The Repubs will sit on their hands and watch them do it, silently.

If this does not PROVE that at the CORE <— there is no difference between the Democrats and Republicans.. our ONLY hope in 2012 is to fill every seat with an INDEPENDENT CONSERVATIVE !! and the process for doing that is GOOOH ! at least for the House.. which is really where we need to focus our attention since it is the House that hold America’s PURSE STRINGS !

Sounds like a cave-in.

Some Republicans never learn. Maybe they don’t even want to.
