“when you dislike Republicans in the first place?” I don’t dislike Republicans at all. What I dislike is someone disregarding voters who sent them to Washington and voting like they feel, or what is good for their cronies. I don’t care how they feel, or who their friends are. Vote like the hard working American people who sent you there, in the first place. We just want representation of our conservative values, patriotic views.
I can name a least a dozen Republican politicians who have been labelled RINO on this forum who ARE patriotic. Many have high ACU ratings. None of that matters once they have been vilified by the 'true conservatives,' who have become so narrow and paranoid they have truly lost sight of what this nation is and should be. We were not founded as a "group think" nation and such a vision is a dead end.
To believe that someone is not patriotic because you have labelled them RINO is a grave error.
