Has he accomplished anything?
As he captured even a single centimeter of ground in this war for freedom?
I’m not really of a mind to cheer “trying” any longer. We are losing on every front, and our leaders are a bunch of cowards and turncoats.
We’ve got to start supporting people. We may not agree with them %100 (and frankly, I can’t think of anybody I agree with to that extent, because they’re them and I’m me) but we have to support them in any area where we can agree with them.
Unless you want to run for Congress or for the Senate, you’re not going to agree %100.
Support the person with whom you can most agree, pressure that person if you feel your position is important but not being respected, but look at the big picture.
Also, if you live anywhere conservative or even moderate, start getting your candidates up there yesterday.
Ryan is very good and he’s about 100% smarter and more strategic than anybody here, including the bloviating Rush doing his “show prep” (since Rush has bunches of bucks and has never held an elected or decision making position in his entire life).
If you want to criticize one of Ryan’s positions, point it out and send him an e-mail.
If you don’t support anybody because you’re too pure and can’t find a candidate who meets your criteria...then go back to being a Keyboard Kommando, who accomplishes nothing except venting his spleen.
You may not agree with him or anybody else on every point (and neither do I), but you have to support him on the things with which you can agree. Otherwise, we’ll be out there pointing the gun at our own heads because nobody is pure enough for us.
