To the headline: one could only wish that were true.

Our illustrious looser leaders let people from terrorist nations come here. All Bachmann is saying, is lets make sure they’re not inside our government. And that’s supposed to be fringe thinking?

This is like a bad dream. Only when I pinch myself, I don’t wake up. There’s one zombie after another parading in front of us with arms outstretched mumbling something.

This sucks to high heavens!

Let me guess Hes strongly endorsed Willard...

He endorsed Huntsman. Romney's probably too conservative for him. He won by a 6% margin, so this being NY state, he'll need to steer clear of nationally-known conservatives to the extent he can. It ain't pretty, but in NY, conservatives have a lousy image, and anyone who wants to win office as a GOP candidate there needs to sugar-coat the conservative message. I don't have a problem with RINO's winning office in blue states. It's preferable to the alternative.

I’d rather face 10,000 angry snarling union thugs in front of me, all armed with rifled bayonets than have 5 of these RINOs behind me.

Michele Bachmann is right in asking the question.
It should be looked into.
To dismiss this is odd.
I haven’t heard her critics says she is wrong yet, only that they are appalled that she asked the question.

Hanna sounds like a liberal who ran as a republican only to get elected.I suspect he’ll be pulling an Arlen Specter if he is re-elected.

Yeah, THAT’S the problem in the Republican Party.

I thought it was swinging right during election time, then ignoring the right once re-election was achieved. For like the umpteenth time.

Too bad this Rino's timing is not as exquisite as his regard for comity with Democrats; to voice these opinions about Michelle Bachmann on the same day that allegations emerge about Jarrett's baleful influence over Obama in the dithering over the bin Laden assassination.

Hanna, R-Barneveld, pointed specifically to Michele Bachmann of Minnesota — particularly her suggestion that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin be investigated to see if she has ties to Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood that would compromise her loyalty.

Richard, ol' buddy, ol' pal, are you willing to attest that there is absolutely no Muslim Brotherhood influence on Huma Abedin or any other member of the administration? You know this for a fact? And you would guarantee it -- in the name of your children and grandchildren?

Because, Richard, if you're not willing to commit yourself to this proposition, you've got no business complaining about Michelle Bachmann's inquiry. And you can't be considered a serious Congressman, held responsible for the national security of the United States and its citizens.

Yes, the RINO’s are way too extreme

RINO? I do not think so. I think Rep. Hanna is mainstream Republican. They and the GOP-E hate that the conservatives that have assumed some influence in the party.
I also think that the conservative members of the Republican party are in a minority and would be better off to just drop out and form a real conservative party. Maybe the Tea Party. I read that Sarah Palin has rented a hall in Tampa. I wonder if maybe that could be the start of something BIG. God knows I hope and pray so.

he said he feels more bitterness coming from the Republican caucus than from the Democrats.

We have a lot to be bitter about. Compromise means the Democrats always win. Don't let the door hit you.

Agreed. No matter how tenuous the footing, it is best to have your opponents clearly marked on the field before you and not working from the shadows at your back.

The only political group that is offensive to a Rino is the group that is anti-socialist.

I agree. We need a real conservative party. I pray it will happen eventually. Just hope it won’t be too late.

A few weeks back Ed Rollins was asked about Romney’s failure to win southern states during the pimaries.

HE LAUGHED and said they’ll vote for Romney because they have no other choices.
