I stand opposed to this. Ban me if you will.

Bad idea. Bad practice. Bad, bad, bad.

The idea should be to win over the RINOs and pull them rightward. Yelling them down and telling them to go to hell does nothing except to advance the cause of the bad guys.

I think we will be more successful in turning the tide if we organize around positive rather than negative principles; if we declare what principles (not candidates) we are for. Not everyone may agree on every point, or the best vehicle to achieve those ends, but rather than continually dividing the conservative movement, or launching into inquisitions, we should strive not to make enemies with those who agree with core conservative principles and who seek a return to our republic's roots.

" The idea should be to win over the RINOs and pull them rightward. Yelling them down and telling them to go to hell does nothing except to advance the cause of the bad guys. "

It's one thing to have the RINOs who lurk on here and read about Conservative values, it's totally different thing is when they spew out their RINO propaganda and their RINO candidates and tell us that we are " BIGOTS " because we oppose their candidate.

Those RINOS who lurk on here are welcome, but, if they are going to push Liberalism, them, that when we have a problem with it.

I think we're past the point of winning anybody over, least of all RINOs and leftists, which we mustn't forget are one and the same. That time has passed.

Also, notice that nobody is yelling anybody else down. The "go to hell" comment is a general attitude, and one which is expressed quietly. There are far, FAR too many people with this attitude who have decided to NEVER support a RINO again, no matter which direction the GOP goes in. It goes without saying that as far we're concerned, they can go to hell.
