Open Letter to Republicans
11/10/06 | alchemist54

Posted on 11/10/2006 2:32:05 PM PST by alchemist54

First let me say that if you like myselfe voted for a Republican-even if if made you want to puke--this is not aimed at you!!This is for all the weak willed so called Republicans who stayed home or voted for the rats. If you did not vote or voted for the rats, then please DO NOT start posting when your life gets more complicated by a democrat congress. If you bought a new home within the last 12 years especially an expensive one over $200,000 and could barly make the property tax payments just wait till the bush cuts are repealed when your take home pay goes down because your tax bracket went back up. Guess you will really be crying when you realize that Bankrupcy is not an option.--you voted for this! When the military Draft is reimposed--remember--Rangle has a bill ready for that and you voted your concience! When they start procedings to impeach the president and vice-president and Pelosi can assend to the oval office--remember you voted for this!!! When the price of gasoline skyrockets because all hopes of becoming energy independent has evaporated---you voted for this! When inflasion runs amok and the stock market crashes and your 401K collapses---you voted for this!! I am not being an alarmist all you have to do is search for these items and read what all the rats were screaming they wanted to do. It is NOT true that the rats did not have a plan they DO you were just to stupid to realize it. My grandmother always said "be careful not to throw the baby out with the bath water!"Well people we just screwed the pooch and the baby is no where to be found. Now the only chance to evict the rats will be in 4years for the house and 12 years for the senete. So lock up you wallets learn spanish be prepared to be moved from the middle class to the poor house but dont post about how unfair things have become--remember YOU VOTED FOR THIS!!!!

I also voted. I really hate what's about to happen...but at the same time, we were being crapped on by the party in charge so I really am having a hard time being mad at anyone BUT the republican party.

I really agree with you here, but still, it will be nice to have a few self-righteous "I told you so's" at the stay-at-homers' expense.

It wasn't the voters who lost the race, it was the Republican leadership. No attempt was made to connect with the regular conservative. I felt that it was always 'my way or the highway'. It got to the point where you would lose your membership to the club if you had a different opinion on the war or Donald Rumsfeld or immigration or, or? Screw being a Republican. How about getting back to being a Conservative??? Morally, fiscally and socially.
BTW - spell check is a good thing...

The President doesn't have to serve in the Military, nowhere does it say that he does. Franklin D. Roosevelt the biggest "war monger ever"(This is a botched joke) never served in the military(this is true he never served in the military but he was Elected to four terms in office)

The complaints are numerous. I think common ground should be sought.

Sure lots of independents aka "I'll vote what's good for me and to heck with everyone else" -- voted Dem.

But lots of conservatives stayed home too - depresed by so many charges of corruption...and the perception that Republicans were disloyal to the base.

I retain the right to b*tch my butt off in upcoming months, having done my civic duty & pulled the R lever (as I have done every election since 1980).

Actually, Drudge had posted some numbers on how many Dims vs. Republicans voted for senators, and there were 50% more Dim votes cast than Republican ones. I believe the numbers were 300-some million D, 200-some-million R's. So had the Pubbies come out and voted, as close as it was with that many fewer of us now, we would have taken an even bigger chunk of everything than we already had.

BTW, I was one of the ones who braved the pouring rain to push straight R buttons, and encourage many others to do the same. :-(

I suppose the House can easily "impeach" the President and the Vice President. But it would take 2/3 of the Senate to finish the job. While anything is possible now, THAT is highly unlikely.

Well I voted straight GOP even though the GOP basically cut and ran from CT. IMHO the GOP has nobody to blame but themselves. Spending like drunken sailors, no SS reform, no real immigration reform of course republicans got their clocks cleaned. Believe me I dread seeing what the left has in store for us but republicans did it to themselves when they walked away from conservatives.

Nobody's going to reinstate the draft.

"There was one?"

IF you stay home on election day(or vote libertarian or Constitution Party) you have NO right to complain about ANYTHING.

Sadly, in my Congressional district, there was no Republican running this time. So, I did vote for the Libertarian and felt damn proud to do so! lol
