Amen to that.
Dittos......he is an imported wacko gun grabber like Piers Morgan
“New England Journal of Medicine challenged what it called the NRAs single-issue political blackmail, quoting a team of doctors who know Murthy personally and say they are appalled that a candidate of such high caliber would be taken to task for speaking out about a problem that lands thousands of people in emergency rooms every year.
Murthy is all of about 36 years old. With college and medical school he MIGHT have actually about 7-8 years of hands on Medical Practice. He is the most qualified for this position? Me thinks it’s the N.E. Journal of Medicine that has an agenda. Murthy is looking for a cushy meal ticket job from which to proselytize and never have to shove a tongue depressor in a mouth again. Hey Obongo, what about Dr. Ben Carson?
Rand Paul comes across to me anyway, as the mostdeftdaft politician of the 2016 possibles.
“Rand Paul is showing himself as a clever cookie.
Watch out for him.”
“HE’S A RINO!!!” “HE’S A LIBTARD!!!”
In before the old canned responses are posted.
I like the guy very much; he does have some critical thinking skills...but that must make him a RIMO, right?
“Those two should have been removed in 2009 after the 2008 loss. I was calling for that back then.
But it took years before most here caught on to that, like till 2011.”
You must be a RINO - a Yankee RINO!!! You can think past “What time does ‘The Price Is Right’ come on?”
A bunch of us “Yankee RINOs” here in the NE quit the NRA and went over to GOA a few years back - they (GOA) are the real deal.
I will NEVER forgive the NRA for backing Harry Reid; neither will some others.
Since doctors kill more people than guns, maybe they should be speaking out against themselves.
Might be the only winning formula in 2016. I had it with election losses. I wish Palin could get elected because she is both Socon + Fiscon. Ditto with Cruz. But can they win 2016 general with so much hate from the left?
Sadly, with the way the election (fraud) is, Fed. level is pretty unpredictable :/
He's an interesting character for sure.
I remember when he first started he went on Maddow’s show and she trapped him on the civil rights act,
but he has been getting craftier and craftier since, he plays very carefully. He avoids drawing negatives on himself,
“We have to change’ LOL
The NRA are a bunch of useless ass curls if you ask me. They give out “A’s” like a kindergarten teacher and endorse plenty of people that the GOA rate a C or worse.
I asked the GOA who was worse: Scott Brown (AWB) or Kelly Ayotte (12 million Democrats). They were not sure. I liked that answer.
I think the NRA needs to get involved when Democrats and Republican leaders decide to create 12 million new anti-gun voters via amnesty.
Mccookle and Bonehead need to be sent packing. They are the reason we are losing against the clown in chief. Afraid to say anything and just go with the flow.
Not really. The NRA tends to be timid. Not as bad as say Boehner, but in the same vein. Other more vocal organizations are usually the ones doing the heavy lifting. The GOA keeps them on their toes.
And yet... He has chosen to run with being pro gun as a center part of his platform. Clearly that is one of the most radioactive of social issues. Libertarians have ALWAYS been known for their pro gun views. Always. So you tell me, what really sets a Libertarian and a conservative apart, because I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that I'm leaning more and more heavily to the Libertarian side. I left the Republicans after 37 years of activism and donations in January 2013. Felt strange at first and then.... it felt soooooo good.
I have tired of the NRA's get-along approach and have decided to join the GOA, effective now. I like an organization that has no wishy-washy approach to gun rights. Here the NRA is doing the right thing...then you learn how they got behind Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell!!!
“Libertopians are NOT Conservatives”
Nonsense.
Ronald Reagan’s opinion on Libertarianism:
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Dg0Axyvlkm0
Well, when it comes to the parties themselves, there are several issues, including the main one that made Ron Paul a bad fit as a Libertarian candidate: abortion. Gay marriage is another. The Libertarian Party embraces abortion rights and gay marriage. They also tend toward an unrealistic view of the dangers of this world, and that includes open borders on immigration.
What we know as “conservatism” is a blend of libertarianism and traditionalism. They were once thought to be incompatible, and therefore ineffective as a counter to the march of liberalism, but they were philosophically blended by a man named Frank Meyer, popularized by William F. Buckley, Jr., and brought to the heights of the political world by President Reagan. Obviously, there were others involved along the way, but that’s the basics of it.
