Had you stopped right there, you might been perceived as honest.
"The right half of the political spectrum currently stands alone against our international enemies and HALF of our own country."
True, and you defending RINOs who are on the left side is reprehensible.
"It's time to choose our battles."
We have. We've identified the problem - RINOs and we're taking them on. That's what has you scared. You'll lose the GOP as one of your avenues to power.
And you are the worst combination of arrogance and ignorance.
You don't have to be a moderate to vote for Specter or believe that sticking together on the right is the best plan. That's all you have, though, try to demean or intimidate other people who point out the flaws in your argument and pretend that they can't possibly believe in the same values as you but just believe in a different strategy to put them forward.
WF Buckley... "I support the rightward most viable candidate." Specter won the primary against our hopes but that is what we are stuck with and he IS the rightward most viable candidate. I can't stand the man but he's much better than Hoeffel, one of the most severe leftists in Washington. Grow the hell up.
