I gave you a clue. I told you to go after them. Name the elite
RINO GOPs, isolate them, deal with them. All I hear about is
the nameless, faceless bunch that cuts deals with the ‘Rats.
Well, Tea Party legislators need to call the phonys out or shut
the F up and work with them to push out the ‘Rats.

Again, you invoke the Founding Fathers and you apparently know
less than half the story. And for you to question my understanding
of the US and the exceptional that goes along is contemptable.
You are absurd.

Well, with all due respect, confidence in one’s own understanding of the US does not lead to hurling invective at anyone who questions it; and throwing around such words as “purity” will invite questions. It’s nothing to get angry about.

And you are getting things upside down; it is not the Tea Party legislators not working with the RINOs, but vice versa; the RINOs are openly working with the Democrats instead, and seemingly shamelessly so. It was not Ted Cruz uttering invective like “wacko birds”, but John McCain, for just one example. The RINOs cutting deals with the “Rats” are anything but nameless or faceless; we all know Boehner, Cantor, McCain, McConnell, Graham and the rest.

Many if not most conservatives do not see a liberal-leaning GOP being returned to majority power as the solution, having borne witness to the expansion of big government under the RINO-majority 2000-06 Bush administration. That trust has been wounded, critically if not fatally. The 2010 elections were more of a reflection of what the people in the US want rather than 2012, and seeing a pundit like Thomas Sowell reject what 2010 was about is more than merely troubling.
