And in the dozen or so others, they didn't.
LOL!
So, you admit you are insane and incapable of telling fact from fiction.
This will certainly save time...
Republican Incumbents Who Lost in the House:
Vacated Republican seats lost
Mostly conservatives, a few borderline Northeast conservatives, a few RINO's and no liberals.
The ACU's "ratings" have been hashed out on a dozen threads already. About as accurate as any other "polling" data....
An ineffective, low pressure hose does me no good.
Guess I'm screwed.
I've seen a few failed attempts to make that argument on other threads.
Cite why the ACU ratings are inaccurate.
Just a few crooks, at least one pervert that I know of...
"Screw them, they can keep on voting for the Democrats like they always have... they are Cultural Marxists..."
They are suicide bombers -- but without a suicide bomber's quiet dignity.
Their whole "theology" is outcome based.
In order argue their high-minded right to stay stoned on weed (or whatever they can get) they will subscribe to open borders, defunding the military -- anything that will justify doping themselves.
Getting stoned is always job one. Just give them their bongs, man.
Which, given how naturally stupified they seem to be, would seem to be overkill. But there they are.
How many seats from your party were voted into office?
"Hey, it's going on right now on another thread. If we elect a candidate that can beat Hillary the unhappy people will take their votes and go third party, which is what she is counting on.. a repeat of Perot."
While a passionate conservative in 1992, I was young and pathetically naive... all I knew was that Bush Senior wasn't as conservative as I wanted and I voted third party.
I was remorseful as hell THE MORNING AFTER THE ELECTION when I saw that an oily, lying sleazebag had won... and that was before we had a clue as to the horrendous damage he was going to do to America for 8 years.
This is the opposite of what the dims want.
It's like groundhog day. I can see we never learn from history in this country.
In order argue their high-minded right to stay stoned on weed (or whatever they can get) they will subscribe to open borders, defunding the military -- anything that will justify doping themselves.
You can add me to the list that did the exact same thing. I learned a valuable lesson. It's one thing to have strong values, another to cut off your nose to spite your face.
The GOP has a libertarian wing...it's largest and oldest faction.
Libertarians are such liars. Here is their official "stance" on abortion:
Official Website of the Libertarian National Committee
I.8 Reproductive Rights
The Issue: The tragedies caused by unplanned, unwanted pregnancies are aggravated and sometimes created by government policies of censorship, restriction, regulation and prohibition.
Recognizing that abortion is a sensitive issue and that people can hold good-faith views on both sides, we believe that government should be kept out of the matter, leaving the question to each person for their conscientious consideration.

Translation: "if it feels good, do it, baby!"
Funny, that's their answer to almost everything.
You mean they aren't for open borders or defunding the military.
Maybe you should read their platform for the last forty years.
I will always vehemently disagree with anyone who seems to want to damage, or place in jeopardy, the nation that my grandchildren have to live in. It is admirable for one to want to fight for something you believe in but it is not admirable to burn down the neighborhood in order to do it. There are some conservative fiscal qualities of Libertarians that I admire. However, as one who believes that nothing is more dangerous than a crowd of people, Libertarians belief that society should be totally free of all government, I see as a grave threat to a safe societal structure.
Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., speaks during a news conference on Social Security on Capitol Hill, in Washington, D.C. in this May 3, 2005 file photo, as House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., listens. Should the Democrats pick up 15 or more seats and gain control of the House of Representatives on November 7, 2006, the Harlem congressman who would become chair of the powerful tax-writing Ways & Means Committee. +++++ But those Libertarian really taught us all a lesson.
If I was gonna start a new party, I'd rip one right out of the middle of the two currently battling for power. I'd grab up every DINO & RINO that I could get my hands on, with one exception. I'd put integrity in government down as my first plank & open government would be my second plank. I'd air all of the dirty laundry of the Democrats & Republicans, all of the back room deals of both sides, so I'm sure I'd have plenty of ammo.
