One hundred and eleventy billion jugs of wine later, I can now speak frankly
The GOP destroyed itself long ago by
1) pushing McRomneyBushDole non-stop for at least the last year
2) being non-stop spineless ****** since the beginning of time. The examples of this are too many to list. Really,
name one issue that is near and dear to conservatives, that the GOP either does not utterly cave on, or mishandle to laughable status.
I can’t say how sick I am of issues that we should have the high ground on where even here on FR everybody gets excited about, to just have each and every one of them either disappear, or if not to have the GOP be made to look like fools. Latest example, fast and furious.
I could care less about the GOP anymore.
I agree completely. The GOP is dead to me. It’s time we treated them as enemies rather than as incompetent friends. After this ugly nomination process is over and we have Newt (hopefully), we should set to work taking out each and every RINO in the party.
It was the constant parade of corrupt and sex crime allegations committed by the senators and congressmen.
I can remember one after another quitting because they had been caught doing something. Even my congressman Mark Souder was accused of some sort of a “young men” sex crime. And he quit only when caught.
The public just got tired of it and branded the GOP as a bunch of guys like that.
Plus...there is the 50% of the American public that is real stupid, you got that one.

I suspended my affiliation with the GOP after Regan left office and saw the GOP turning into Political Correct mush. I now consider myself an ultra conservative independent and give no financial support to anyone or any party that goes against the principles of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights as written.
The Tea Party is a refreshing movement in this country but until it can either take over the entire GOP establishment or form into an organized new party, it will simply float without a rudder in a storm of freedom snatching and self-interested politicians bent on enriching themselves while stripping the meat off the bones of an America that once existed.
