I left when GWB said ‘see you at the signing’ re: amnesty.
Told me everything I needed to know about the party. Never looked back.

After Trump’s elected we should consider forming a new party.

I agree where do I join

In many states, if you're not a Republican, you can't vote in Republican primaries. That's the only reason I'm still in.

This is why I'm still officially a Republican too. Florida is a closed primary state. I feel very little loyalty to the Republican Party, even though I have never voted for a Democrat in my life.

Will move to AZ in six months and if they have open primaries, I’m outta the GOP. Ready for a Constitutional Liberty Party.

Who are you calling a jerk? The poster or Rev. Graham and why?

I just had a flash of ex-Republicans appearing at Stupid Party rallies with megaphones, chanting FU, FU, FU, FU, (but not abbreviating) as a statement that the Republicans no longer have anything to say.

Then, instead of cooperating, forcing the police to billy-club them into submission.

Once some blood is shed, something might get started.

You’re not far off. Change of this sort rarely occurs peacefully. Look at the Democrats and their 1968 convention. The radicals lost in the short run, but won in the long run, but paid for it in cracked skulls and blood.

I see what Graham is doing comparable to a General resigning because of what Obama is doing to the military, which unfortunately I don’t see happening, but should. He doesn’t want to be associated with evil.

More high profile people need to leave.

Rev. Franklin Graham is a complete "putz" when it comes to politics ...

A complete "fool" ... a "moron" ...

And I say that as a sixty year old Evangelical Christian who has both admired and financially contributed to his father (Rev. Billy Graham) for years.


========================================

Karl Rove and the GOPe-RINO "Planned Parenthood Loving" Establishment can only smile and offer-up Johnnie Walker Blue Scotch whiskey toasts after Rev. Franklin Graham's "moronic" pronouncement.

Period.

The GOPe-RINO class WANTS Christian Evangelicals to LEAVE the PARTY so that dolts like Florida's David Jolly can get elected to the U.S. Senate.

========================================

Rev. Franklin Graham needs to have the "guts" to dump his IRS 501 C-3 church tax-exempt status ... and quit pussy-footing around ...

Rev. Franklin Graham "voluntarily" agrees to accept Uncle Sam's 30 Pieces of Silver in exchange for "political hush money" about political candidates and elections ...

Suprised about Franklin Graham's "legal secret" ?

Unfortunately, it also applies to "your" tax-exempt church as well ... Just ask your pastor to speak to your congregation about IRS 501 C-3 ... and watch the FEAR in his eyes ... been there, done that ...

Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8TlzFiMSwY

You're gently challenged to download IRS Pamplet P1828 to see the "chains" that the IRS has placed your church and pastor in ...

https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p1828.pdf

Don't shoot me, I'm just the messenger ...

God Bless America ...

I am a Republican so I can vote out Pat Roberts. Now I’m a Republican so I can vote for Ted Cruz.

Yeah, that was a jerk move.

The final straw for me was Mississippi where they tarred good, decent people as racists.

Now I vote in the primaries then go 3rd party or write-in in the general if I have to.

I was born and raised in NC, only a couple years older than Franklin Graham. I grew up on hearing Billy Graham preach and have went to many of his revivals. Franklin has always been a conservative republican as far as I know. Not so with the old man. Billy Graham has been a member of the democrat party as long as he’s been voting. He is very good friends with the Clintons and has said that Hilly Clinton would make a good president. I don’t think Franklin and the old man talk too much politics.

You’d think Billy would have taken warning about where things were going. Hillary a good president after Obama huh, I guess like strychnine would be an improvement after cyanide.

But this is people for us. They’re imperfect. Why would a liberal Democrat be the best gospel preacher in modern day. Maybe because God wanted to tweak the conservative Christians a little. They don’t have it all nice and neatly boxed up with a bow either. The fear of man brings a snare.

I didn’t say Billy Graham was a LIBERAL democrat. He would be what used to be called a “blue dog democrat”. But it does seem like he would have switched parties when the dems went to far to the left years ago. I know many 80 to 90 year olds that are still church going democrats and don’t really keep up on what’s going on in the party. They just voted democrat since JFK.

For the last my prayer has been that the Lord will bring this nation back to him, no matter what it costs. I fear the cost will be very dear.

We need a Republican Conservative party. We’re Republicans. The Elites are not! If we named ourselves this we could drive the elites off the ballot!

This is the reason I can’t associate with a church that celebrates sin and perversion and even murder.
