Movement-conservative icon, author, and direct-market pioneer Richard Viguerie threw down the gauntlet to establishment Republicans and the GOP leadership Tuesday, charging that conservatives "have been betrayed, abandoned by our leaders, and that includes Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Eric Cantor, Kevin McCarthy, [and] Reince Priebus at the Republican National Committee."
Viguerie and other grass-roots conservative leaders are warning that Republicans who voted to end the shutdown on terms favorable to President Barack Obama and the Democrats will face major primary opposition in 2014.

business as usual won’t cut it anymore RINOs
you better start packing because you will be voted out
I think we’re stuck with John until 2016,
where he’ll suddenly show up on our doorstep with conservative “flowers”...
Time to take out the Collaborator Trash!
Juan can wait till 16’. 2014? Alexander and Gramnesty-then I’ll take the movement seriously. We are conservatives. Money has nothun’ to do with it. We show up at primaries, RINOS don’t.
I will fight the establishment pubs and the dem bastards to my last breath to save our children’s future. We can not DARE to leave them less freedom than what we had before ohaha became president. And if it takes blood, then so be it...to the last drop. This I swear.
ESAD, Donahue!
Corncob has go to GO!
I don’t think we have that kind of memory.
If Obamacare goes into effect, people will be thinking about those premiums and penalties before they vote.
From his lips to God’s ears. These bastards demonstrated they have NOTHING but contempt for their constituents. Even the Democrats have more respect for the loons of the left in their own party than these dirtballs have for the average rank and file conservative Republican.
Their latest junket on that taxpayer paid airplane trip to Florida demonstrates that as much as their benefitting from the Obamacare perk they are receiving.
Lost Rubio over amnesty, now my House Rep. over finances. Wish these guys would start a RINO party. Since Republicans are split and abandoning constitutional principles, I would strongly favor a third party such as Constitutional Conservatives. As I look at our young adults I become fearful of America’s future. All they want is sex, alcohol, computer games, and basic support to be given to them. Very little evidence of a work ethic or desire to advance through accomplishments. And if they look to Congress for examples, there are few and those worthy of being an example are marginalized by a heavily biased media.
The way I look at it, I'd rather have a Democrat in office than a RINO. At least (1) I know where they're at, (2) what they campaigned on is what they did in office and (3) they didn't commit sabotage and treachery against their own.
Give me an honest Democrat against RINOs in our midst, any day. We'll win that discussion.
Yes, well, leadership that betrays the truth OUGHT to be removed.
I do not condemn every leader of the Republican party, but many of them seem more concerned about dynamics and compromise than they do about truth and principles.
I am glad Boehner stood with the majority when he defunded Obamacare. He was betrayed by the Senate—and his “capitulation” was born of an alliance between the Senate and the White House. Could he have hung in there? Maybe for a bit...but his own party was attacking him instead of defending him.
We have the worst occupant of the Oval Office in 100+ years (worse than Buchanan, in my opinion—so probably the worst in our history), and the Senate Republicans turned their guns upon the Speaker of the House.
Stupidity.
“Juan can wait till 16’. 2014? Alexander and Gramnesty-then I’ll take the movement seriously. We are conservatives. Money has nothun’ to do with it. We show up at primaries, RINOS don’t.”
Maybe the RINOS won’t show up, but the dems will. Remember that in most states, democrats can vote in republican primaries. And they do so, with grim, vindictive, pleasure.
I am so disgusted with my country. I voted a solid republican ticket for 30 years. No more. The republicans will never get another vote or penny from me. I pray that the tea party will become a third party. If they don’t......well then I have no one to vote for. Sad.
torches and pitchforks at the ready!
The immediate, “crisis level” fight for the Tea Party is in the Virginia senatorial race. The radical revolutionary left has taken out all the stops to get Terry McAuliffe elected, both to keep Virginia from going strong conservative, and as an essential element of getting Hillary Clinton elected.
If they do get McAuliffe elected, the Democrat party leadership plans to drive the Democrats very hard left, so that there are no more liberal Democrats, only radical socialists.
All the big names, Soros, Bloomberg, the Tides Foundation, etc., are pouring money in to Virginia for the final sprint, and if McAuliffe fails, it will be a devastating blow to them, the Democrats, and the extreme leftist agenda.
Had a black buddy of mine in the Air Force years ago tell me he would much rather live in the South than the North. I asked him why and he said Southerners are not two-faced, they either like you or they don’t. Said he could deal with that. Unlike up north where they say they like you to your face and talk about you like a dog when you ain’t around. Of course I agree. That reminds me of RINOs versus democrats. At least you know where you stand with a democrat.
It's only going to be a bloodbath if people get pissed and stay pissed. AND if people honestly believe that the GOP is worth salvaging by getting new blood into office. For my part I will be doing anything and everything I possibly can to primary that SOB Roy Blunt in 2016 for his vote for ending the shutdown. The man is dead to me, and nothing he does or says can possibly erase that betrayal.
The young adult generation, with some exceptions (but not enough) is lost. And so, too, is the nation.
Legal immigrants have a work ethic and have their heads on straight. Wish we could swap them for the natives.
Yep. The GOP is entering it’s death rattle as a new Conservative Opposition Party emerges.
Tell your grandkids they’ll read all about it in the history books.
