So you keep track of those who you think should be “zotted”. How sad. You need a slightly more productive hobby.

Since I just now found the time to listen to TC talk, I have a question to ask. I heard that he said he would talk as long as he could stand. Has anybody yet come up with what we SHOULD be doing. All who have the time should go outside someplace visible (courthouse, etc) with a sign that says I STAND WITH TED CRUZ. It’s like the empty chair thing. We need to be out there standing with Ted. What better way to give him courage to carry on the fight? I will be out with a sign, alone if necessary.

“Intended purpose of Obamacare is to lead us on the path” to socialized medicine.

So what? We just sit back and let McLame be our spokesman? Screw that. We need BOLD COLOR differences, not pale pastels.

The facts are these.
No party remains in power indefinitely in the House or the Senate. When we take either chamber, we have a BRIEF window. Usually, our window is briefer than the Democrats’.
In 2010, we gave the House to the GOP. We gave them a strong majority, and sent a plethora of communists into oblivion. We gave the speakership to John Boner so he could do everything possible to throw a wrench in Obama’s plans.

He never spearheaded a SINGLE move to defeat Obama. Every time we had any fight or victory, it was our loyalists in the House practically forcing the leadership into it.
In the senate, the picture is even bleaker because of condescending, arrogant deck-chair Republicans like McLame, McConnell and Gayham who are now sending attack talking points to Chris Wallace to smear our own damn members!

No, I’ve had it with the GOPe. In the UK, a group of fake conservatives known as the ‘Wets’ (David Cameron’s predecessors) did everything they could to bring down Margaret Thatcher, to make sure she never came to power, and eventually, they destroyed her. But to temporarily save that nation and lead it through a decade of miraculous growth after years of stagnation under Soviet style leftism, she had to defeat them. She had to beat the John McCain’s of Britain. Reagan was despised by the Ford wing of the party, and he defeated them in 1970s America leading up to his nomination. He thrashed them and exposed them for being the cause of our party’s failure.
Today, they are back! They are the problem!
I am not rolling over to be civil and support the status quo. It’s defeatist and eventually it leads to our destruction (think of the inept presidency that led us to Barack Obama).
In 2014, I am going to put sweat and blood into defeating McConnell, Graham, and Alexander. And until then, I’m not going to stop attacking these cockroaches.

And with that, Pat Roberts is lending some support now. Good choice.

I don't love all Republicans. I just like Republicans like Cruz and Palin ,Lee , tancredo, Bachmann.

why do you keep changing what I say? I ‘m talking about how to stop the democrat party and every time I say that then you say I love Republicans. I see the democrat party as the main threat.

Do what you can. Call your senators regardless of their party and make them hear you.

They are doing this by design. It’s taking away cover for RINOs.

A party is not the main threat, leftism in all its forms and disguises is the main threat.
