Depending on amnesty, I might still vote for my representative, Doug Collins (GA-09). But Johnny Isakson has got his last vote for me.
Chambliss is retiring or I wouldn’t vote for him. I am hoping Paul Broun replaces him.
I cannot support Democrats, because of my Christian beliefs. They are the party that booed God and Israel at their convention. They are the party of child murder, homosexuality, and covetousness.
But if the Republican party thinks they can take advantage of me and other military veterans, they are insane.
You don't want to admit it (obviously) but the betrayal of our currently serving military, disabled military, and current military retirees is definitely the fault of Paul Ryan. Boehner gave Ryan carte blanche, and even when this outrageous provision was in the "deal" he allowed it to come up for a vote. Moreover, there is NO WAY that the GOP leadership was not privy to what Ryan/Murray concocted before it was finalized.
As I said, the Democrats in the Senate would not even allow Ammendments, so they are evil as well. So is Murray for hatching this deal that has her name on it.
What separates you and I is you still have GOP Rose Colored Glasses on. I no longer do.
If he or his staff is reading the comments to new articles nationwide on the military pension cuts, Ryan has now surpassed Obama as the most hated politician on the planet. At least for now. Moreover, the military pension screw job has eclipsed the scandal of ObamaCare for many true Conservatives, and it will continue to do so unless the Republicans rectify the situation.
There are only TWO, count them TWO options — R or D. PERIOD, as Obama would say.
Ronald Reagan on the importance of political compromise(in his own words)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/960104/posts
“When I began entering into the give and take of legislative bargaining in Sacramento, a lot of the most radical conservatives who had supported me during the election didn’t like it.
“Compromise” was a dirty word to them and they wouldn’t face the fact that we couldn’t get all of what we wanted today. They wanted all or nothing and they wanted it all at once. If you don’t get it all, some said, don’t take anything.
“I’d learned while negotiating union contracts that you seldom got everything you asked for. And I agreed with FDR, who said in 1933: ‘I have no expectations of making a hit every time I come to bat. What I seek is the highest possible batting average.’
“If you got seventy-five or eighty percent of what you were asking for, I say, you take it and fight for the rest later, and that’s what I told these radical conservatives who never got used to it.
We're not getting 5% of what we're asking for.
Ryan = Soetoro dum fock.
Ryan: “I’d be willing to agree to screw veterans.”
Murray: “Are you shi...I mean, are you kidding me? Looks like we’re in agreement.”
Then she calls Reid: “You’re going to be majority leader for a long time.”
When you spend twice what you bring in in taxes, your government is twice the size it should be.
But I have yet to see one, even one, Repub who is willing to speak up and call for a real reduction in the size, scope, and reach of government. They’ll pat themselves on the back for a reduction in the increase spread out over a couple of decades and think I should be proud of them.
But there isn’t anyone who is prepared to argue for, not a reduction in the increase, not even a reduction in the budget, but a reduction in the size and scope and reach of government. And act on it.
But I am done giving a blank check to the Republican party, especially to traitors like Paul Ryan. I am not an abused spouse who gets beaten up, and then apologizes to the abuser for causing it all.
The GOP today is not the party of Reagan. Can you imagine what Ronald Reagan would say to Paul Ryan's betrayal of our men and women in uniform?
The GOP must first own what they’ve allowed this country to rot and not lifted one finger.
Paul Ryan got played by the Democrats. No person that stupid should be re-elected.
Past time for RINOs to order packing boxes.
“I am embarrassed for the GOP. And they just don’t quit, they keep looking for ways to make me sorry I’m still technically GOP.”
Why be embarassed? There is no law that says you have to vote, let alone be a member of the gop wing of the uniparty.
It illustrates the great failure of American politics. Even is a fiscal conservative till it’s their turn.
Ryan is in WI, and Demos may back him to keep him there to curry favor with the opposition party.
Some conservatives these Republicans are:
