Senate Republicans paid for Mississippi attack ads painting tea partiers as racist: report
The Washington Times ^ | 7/16/14

Posted on 07/16/2014 10:35:11 AM PDT by Sybeck1

Mississippi attack ads that painted conservative Republicans and tea partiers as racists were funded by Senate Republicans, RedState editor-in-chief Erick Erickson has confirmed.

Advertisements by All Citizens for Mississippi, which attacked state Sen. Chris McDaniel and painted conservatives as racists, were partly funded by Sens. Mitch McConnell, John Cornyn, Rob Portman, Bob Corker and Roy Blunt, RedState reported.

According to documents filed with the Federal Elections Commission, All Citizens for Mississippi received funding from a Haley Barbour-backed group called Mississippi Conservatives.

A third party consisting of conservatives is doomed from the get go, given the entrenched nature of our ruling elite, and their media lapdogs.

A third party consisting of conservatives holds the balance of power. Sooner or later, GOP-E must see that the key to preserving their own power -- which is, after all, why they exist -- depends on its base.

And don’t you know they were in on the IRS targeting of Tea Party, too.

It’s time to purge these assclowns from the once proud Republican party, and replace them with principled conservatives who still believe in principals championed by our founding documents.


We hear this every election cycle. It’s over.

“It’s time to purge these assclowns from the once proud Republican party, and replace them with principled conservatives who still believe in principals championed by our founding documents.”

You are advocating exactly what RINOs want. Stay under the illusion you count. You don’t count. Mitt admitted they told him they basically stole the primaries. In this case, the GOPe called your people racist, etc.

They country club oligarchs ARE the Republican Party. They want you to stay on the plantation and vote for them in general elections after they cheat and undermine your candidates.

If you want influence, become independent.

No one who subscribes to a party is truly independent and free to vote their conscience...it is best to be independent like me.

1) Join your local Republican Committee
2) Ascertain if it is a “social meeting”
3) Pay attention to your State Committee Man and Woman reports.
4) Invite like minded FRiends to join with you.
5) Become vocal.
6) Run for Chair, Vice chair,Sec, Treasure and State committee man and woman.
7) Invite like minded FRiends to join with you.
8) Establish contacts in surrounding Counties to follow steps 1 thru 8.
9) Invite like minded FRiends to join.
10) Repeat at the State Republican Committee.

This will take about four years minimum, I have been working on my local for a few years and it was entrenched. They are not workers, just place holders! It is not easy, but as in life, the outcome is survival!

For the RINOs listed, I encourage all to fund and vote for their challengers.

“If you want influence, become independent.”

I got sucked in by Ross Perot, supported him, and look how that turned out. 156 phones calls between the Clinton campaign and Perot owned EDS prior to his running for election. Perot effectively split the conservative vote, ushering in the Clinton regime.

There’s nothing wrong with a registered R talking like an I, and hopefully even getting through to the moderate Ds. Skippy has so poisoned the well for dems, that nobody wants to even be seen with him.

If the RINOs had a single hair between them on their collectives asses, they would exploit this loss of confidence massively.

But they don’t. So we must find someone who can speak simply about the truths that all Americans can respect. (Except the 47% who are professional parasites...sigh.)

There will be 23 or 24 incumbent GOP Senators in 2016 facing a primary.

Cornyn said the GOP must pass amnesty by 2016 to win.

The night that Clinton won his first term I knew that Ross Perot had scammed his “volunteers”. He was dancing with his wife at an election night ball, he had just lost the election, lost millions of dollars and he was the happiest man I had ever seen.

He did it to defeat GHW Bush because Bush had dissed him. Bush had not given him a spot in his administration. He is a scum bag and I hope he rots in hell someday.
