It's a shame so many of less our guard down. It seems we've become a spineless lot post-McCarthy. How great a tragedy will we allow visited upon us before the majority grows a pair again.

[so_real]

so many of less us let our guard down

[manc]

I hear you.
How many times have we heard people say , well times have changed or oh well it doesn’t affect me etc?

If the like of Hannity etc had talked about don’t ask and other social issues then the GOP would feel that they needed to go along with it due to pressure but instead the cowards stay silent and that is what the far left and the homosexual community want .

I am sick at heart. I just cannot believe it. How ironic is the new tagline I just attached two days ago?

I can barely stand this anymore.

[rlmorel]

It turns out McCarthy was right all along, and in reality, he should have been fighting harder...no...not him, he gave his life fighting against the tide...all of the REST of us should have been fighting harder with him.

Now, we will look back on this some years in the future, and we will be in exactly the same position McCarthy was, him with communism, us with homosexuality normalization.

Sad. This just broke something inside to hear Rumsfeld say this.

[rlmorel]

Sigh.

[fabian]

He needs the Be Still exercise at fhu.com....maybe someone can get it to him?

I was going to buy Rumsfeld’s new book.

Now that I find out Rumsfeld supports Homos openly serving in the U.S. Armed Forces, I think I will save my money and not waste it buying his book.

[AmericaOne]

most of talk radio are cowards who cannot talk about social issue.....

Excellent post. Yes, the silence of Limbaugh, Hannity, Levin, Beck and the rest on DADT, the START Treaty and other social issues was deafening. They are definetly phonies when it comes to social conservative issues.

Had Limbaugh and the rest done their jobs, they could have put enough pressure on the RINO Senators that they would have upheld a filabuster against DADT and kill the START treaty.

We hear very little about social conservative concerns from this bunch these days. All we hear about are the budget, health care or Egypt.

[manc]

nail on head.
I’ve given up on them now. They for the most part sound like broken records who only talk debt, health care but never social issues and other matters which is conservatism.

I agree if the likes of Hannity had talked about don’t ask etc then this would have put so much pressure on the GOP to stop this madness and other issues but I guess money and Manhattan cocktail party liberal pals are more important./

While some still think they’re like Gods I do not and I can’t be bothered anymore to watching or listening to them .

You know wha really pissed me off is the likes of Hannity and hwo says they are for the troops.
Well many of us were talking and said that we needed a voice on this and talk radio has a platform.

Some of us called his show and asked his screen er that we would like t talk about it.
All of us were told no they were not discussing the subject today and when others called other days they got the same answer.
He’s not for the troops, he’s there for him to make a name and money.
It amazes me how many still for them and think they;re like a God or something.

It took me years but now I see them for who they are, cowards for the most part who do not want to rock the boat or piss of their elitist pals on the left.

I knew there was a reason - OK, a lot of them - why I didn’t like Rumsfeld as SecDef!

[AmericaOne]

Thanks for the info about you and others calling Hannity’s radio show and trying to get Hannity to talk about DADT and other things. He is a phony thru and thru. You are right that if you ‘support the troops’, you don’t keep quiet while the left and their RINO allies push repeal of DADT to allow Homos to serve openly in the ranks.

I’ve had Hannity pegged as a phony conservative since he backed Guilianni in the 2008 primary, but thought the other major talk show host would discuss the effort to repeal DADT and other issues, but no, they chose to remain silent when they could have spoken up and possibly stopped DADT from being repealed.

[manc]

spent years watching and listening to most of them but I’ve seen how cowardly or phony they are and now given up.

Have a nice week to you and your family

If the “time has come”, why does everyone have to be trained to like them?

[dfwgator]

Yes gays have served honorably, I won’t argue that point. But the difference is, they did it without making their sexuality an issue. Once it’s officially legalized, everything will change. Now gays will have to be accommodated, and one thing we know is that when gays get into a position of power in an organization, they tend to hire other gays and entrench themselves into certain areas, and promote each other.

Hey, now, dad looked good in that photo!/s

[NJBushcountry]

Will not buy anything from any of these so called conservatives.

It is time that the states consider seceding and forming the Conservative States of America(CSA). When the states start forming regiments and see how fast things change.

Could never happen. I don’t think a state could be on their own. California could a few years ago. Alaska takes more federal money than gives. Texas has way too much federal land. Maybe Utah?

There isn't anything in the Constitution forbidding secession. As long as it isn't part of an armed rebellion, there's no legal reason why it can't be done.
