A want to recruit this guy:
I'll even pay for the update to "2012" on his site!
Oh, Please
>>Oh, Please<<
Look at the alternatives! Mercer is my guy, even if he accidentally ran as a democrat!
I agree with you. It took the Tea Party to make me realize that I just want Karl Rove to shut up and go away. He personifies the elitist GOP who stand for absolutely NOTHING. At least the Dems are trying to transform the nation into something they believe in. The GOP, by contrast, stand for nothing, fight for nothing and offer their voters NOTHING in return for their votes of confidence. Thank you, Obama, for waking up the public to what was happening before it was too late.
This is what we FReepers have been saying for a long time.
I believe that GWB & Rove started the fire and Obama lit the match.
(2) Get someone with new ideas, new recommendations about solving our Country's problems.
( 3) Get a doer not some old Fogey that has done nothing but shine their butts in the Senate. I know if will get flamed for this, but when the smoke clears away, I think the best person would be Sarah. Now that you have climbed down off of the light fixture, think about it. She has been Governor of the largest state in the Union, she espouses a program of common sense. She is a pr oven money raiser, I would send her a $ 100.00 even if she isn't running for anything. Let's hear your ideas about who could run and win for the Grand Old Party.
Agree completely.
Do you know his name? ...where he's from? ...his plan for anything?
I have to look it up each I write one of these 'Where's Waldo' post.
OK, I’m a little sick of this “blame the RINO” message. RINO’s have been around for as long as politics have been going on. Tring to blame them for what’s happened to GOP today is ridiculous and irresponsible. RINOs have no effect whatsoever on the conservative movement and never will.
The reason the Conservative movement is struggling for control of the GOP is because we lack effective leadership. We lack articulate leadership that not only can “preach to the choir” but also effectively spread the message about why our policies work best to the non-conservative voters. Not since Reagan has there been a nationally effective conservative leader described above. This is especially exemplified given the current field.
If a RINO gets the 2012 nomination, its for the failure that conservatives could not produce the articulate candidate, not some power-trip money-control grip by the National GOP. History has shown when the articulate conservative runs in these races, they win. If one doesn’t win, then they wern’t effective to begin with.
This is absolutely huge, and key to understanding anything about the GOP.
For one thing, it explains why the RNC is secretly in bed with Obamacare -- because it gets health insurance off business's nickel. Because businessmen think, "if only I can get rid of my $4,000,000 health-insurance tab, I'd have $4,000,000 more untaxed profits on my bottom line!"
Whatever business wants, that's what the RNC wants -- and that's been true ever since Lincoln was elected.
The tipping point was the government shutdown of 1995. That convinced lots of Republican pols that conservatism is a loser, and we haven’t had a conservative governing majority since.
Also about the same time the neo-cons bought control of the Republican Party, while Soros and Hollywood spent trillions moving the country to the left on social issues.
The result is that we now have two Democratic parties, which only disagree about war, if anything at all. Bush was the first Republican president to have a Republican congress since the Great Depression, and except for war they acted like Democrats.
There’s not a dime’s worth of difference between the parties, as one third-party candidate used to say.
We haven’t had ANY conservative candidates who had a chance of winning the nomination since the mid-1990’s, let alone an “articulate” one. The Bush administration governed like Democrats.
RINOs control the Republican Party. It’s a Democrat clone.
If you feel "a little sick" now, drop me a FReepmail and I'll arrange for your family to be called to your bedside ASAP~ ....
Tr[y]ing to blame them for what’s happened to GOP today is ridiculous and irresponsible. RINOs have no effect whatsoever on the conservative movement and never will.
BULL HOCKEY!!!
Go read about "the Compact of Fifth Avenue" and The Making of the President 1964. Then come back and try to peddle that one, if you still care to try.
The bullrush that floored the Reaganauts and everybody else for Poppy Bush in 1988, the noncampaign of 1996, and RiNOfest 2008 are my other prime exhibits. Gaze upon them without gagging, and you're a housefly.
Sorry, I cannot call myself a Republican any longer. I am a Conservative. Both Major parties are too red for me.
Absolutely.
What if by accident McCain/Palin had won?
Where would the economy be right now? Probably pretty close to where it is now.
Where would we stand on illegal immigration? Probably pretty close to where it is now.
Where would we stand on national security(TSA)? Probably pretty close to where it is now.
etc., etc., etc........
This is not a slam against Sarah, I love the woman, but I think we would have been in store for the same old-same old, because Sarah would have been "kept" from being effective in a McCain administration by the powers that be.
Sometimes, things work out the way they are supposed to (((ping))).
Ditto bump.
That woman is the love child of Theodore Roosevelt out of Annie Oakley, and the direct descendant of Molly Pitcher and Joan of Arc. God bless Sarah Palin!
Absolutely! Look whose people were sticking needles in her even during the campaign, and nonstop ever since. Imitated if not led, of course, by the lovely Meghan. <Urp!>
LoL! Oh wait.....I don't feel so good.....[BRB].....
Love your tagline!
