To hell with the GOP-e. Barring a miracle, they got their big government, unconstitutional mandate loving, socialist abortionist Obama-lite RINO on the ballot, they can now get him elected.
We are the resistance!!
Shove him down our throats today, we shove him up your donkeys in November!!
I can see November from my house!!
**Notice: FR is and will remain a pro-life, small government conservative site.**
Thanks, Jim!
I hear you Jim. I do. I will tell you friend, I believe as November looms, you will know what you as a citizen must do. I can grant you everything you said about Romney; everything and yet Obama is far worse than he. He really is Jim. We actually have a president who is admonishing citizens to disregard every branch of govt. but the executive. He’s declared war on the Courts and the Congress. I believe there will be riots this summer (but for God’s grace). Romney was not my first choice either, but, my hand to God, I will not hand my country to a saul alinsky radical who will leave ruins to my children. Those who have gone before us, Jim, must not have lived and died in vain.
Stay in prayer friend. Stay in prayer.

I suggest we all find a CONSERVATIVE cause to support this year and devote all our donations of money and time to that effort instead of working for the RINO Romney campaign. Maybe that will be working for a true conservative candidate in a regional race or supporting specific ballot initiatives. Supporting Scott Walker and his lieutenant governor is probably a good place to start.
We also need to get off the ground serious initiatives for anti-abortion and pro-real-marriage Constitutional amendments. It would be a good FUGOP message to the GOP elites if they see us pushing those amendments heavily as a response to them pushing Romney on us. More importantly, those are the RIGHT things to do and it’s been way too long since conservatives have made bold moves that could produce real results like that. It will also force our future candidates to take real stands on those amendments.
Plus, on the marriage issue, we’re losing ground to a media and urban elite culture that has made so many gains on homosexuality, they are now trying to seriously mainstream transsexualism, i.e. putting a shiny, happy face on the disturbed practice of self-mutilating one’s own genitalia. They want to teach our children that all of this stuff is morally right, as equally acceptable as time-honored, traditional sexual practices (that don’t require utensils), and that anyone who argues otherwise is evil and must be shunned and shamed. A perverse culture is taking over the United States of America (even moreso than in any other nations, shockingly enough) and the conservative point-of-view is LOSING BADLY and barely even trying to fight.
It’s time for us to strike back against the liberal elites in both parties with bold grass-roots moves that go beyond just trying to win elections for candidates who too often end up selling us out anyway when the GOP elites offer them their thirty pieces of silver. The party apparatus is not willing to do the things we need to do to advance the conservative cause and defeat the liberal agenda. We need to organize and work around them. We can still take our country back but it is going to require bold, creative, courageous and non-traditional means to do so. It is time to enact a “trial separation” with the Republican party and leave it up to them to make the next move.
It's time to draw the line on abortion, homosexual agenda, entitlements, discrimination, big government and the trampling of our Constitution and civil rights!
Leave the GOP in the ditch and prepare for a kick in the pants America!
Fine with me!
Just get to a brokered convention!
It's ALL ABOUT DENYING Romney his 1144 delegates!
“Not going to cut off my nose to spite my face! Period!”
In other words, the RNC could run Obama and you would vote for him just because he is a Republican. Sorry, but the RNC IS RUNNING an Obama by the name of Romney and your vote proves my point.
I refuse to put party over country. Both Obama and Romney are the same fate for this country and I won’t vote for either one of them just because he has an (R) next to his name.
The best hope for America now is to surround mittens with people of character.
INDEED.
SIGH.
It’s been increasingly and reluctantly painfully clear the last few years, that the SElections have been a charade far longer than I ever wanted to admit even to myself.
They have been carefully orchestrated “Bread and Circuses” to keep the serfs and slaves pre-occupied while the greater treason went on under the table.

The month by month, year by year incremental ‘advances’ toward the Biblically predicted Marxist, satanist, socialist One World Tyrannical Government have kept racing along regardless of what political window-dressing label the White House or Congress were under.
The proof is now vividly clear even in the wholly globalist owned Marxist Stream Media’s historical record. They seem to flaunt their tyrannies brazenly because they understandably believe they cannot be significantly hindered toward reaching their goal.
The Bible clearly affirms that there WILL BE such a tyrannical government over the whole world in the same era in which Israel again became a nation in her homeland.
I realize some are claiming that there is a long planned effort to arrest the elitist globalist cabal in charge of the planet and execute some of them and imprison others.
Regardless of whether such occurs or not . . . even if it occurs, imho, it will merely be a deeper Delusion and seduciton put in power to replace it.
@@@@@@@
imho, God is illustrating that TRUSTING IN ANYTHING, ANY INDIVIDUAL, ANY GROUP, ANY GOVERNMENT
MORE THAN TRUSTING IN HIM . . . IS DOOMED TO FAILURE AND GROSS EVIL.

THEREFORE, Personally, I’d appreciate your ideas for “therefore what”—particularly in terms of November.
Normally, God blesses me with lots of ideas about lots of interpersonal even social problems. This time, I’m stumped and He seems silent other than to encourage us to fast and pray for our beleagured, beloved land.
If you have practical suggestions, I’m eager to read them.
Romney will NOT nominate anyone like Sarah Palin. In fact, I doubt that Romney will nominate Rubio or Ryan, as they both would overshadow him. And, the GOP-E is going to be pressing Romney to nominate a minority woman to fill that precieved gap.
Here’s our ticket
Romney/Martinez
Or
Romney/Rice
“1st Amendment, please?”
Non-governmental entities (or individuals) may, and often do, restrict any sort of speech at their discretion. The First A prohibits governmental action. For a recent example, see Ozzie Guillen.
Barring a miracle? No No No. Expect a Miracle, and they won't get their RINO... there is still time. Time for money time for phone calls time for knocking on doors time for making a miracle.
The convention is almost exactly 20 weeks away - we are but on the shores of the Delaware today. Believe, just believe! Reach down deep and remember - how America was born - who gave it birth - the kind of courage and determination it took.
And if you are tired, maybe, and disillusioned because you've been through this before - there are plenty of young ones - young ones in town with a mission - young ones that get no respect. We can do this. We can pick up the slack for you old guys. But you have to believe. You have to believe.
We can do this, we can.

ps Did you know Lincoln was nominated as the Republican candidate through a brokered convention? The favorite at the time was William H. Seward. Lincoln was regarded as a dark horse contender with no chance of victory. However, he won the nomination on the third ballot, and as we all know, went on to win the presidency that November.
Other Republican pr...esidents who were nominated at a brokered convention include: Rutherford Hayes (7th ballot) James Garfield (36th ballot!)Warning Harding (10th ballot) Dwight D. Eisenhower (2nd ballot)
The closest we have come to a brokered convention in modern times was in 1976, when neither President Gerald R. Ford nor challenger Ronald Reagan arrived at the convention with a majority of the delegates, but Ford rallied to a win on the first ballot.
The bottom line? Republican brokered conventions result in presidential wins!
Please show where the First Amendment limits the ability of a website owner to kick someone off his own private property.
I swear, some folks think the First Amendment would give them the right to march up to their boss and curse him out.
And do you think the GOP wants to stop this continuous drive for unlimited, large collectivist spending? If you do then you are either naive or you are a complete fool.
The only groups that benefit from collectivism are the extreme rich and the extreme poor. This includes the political aristocracy located in the District of Criminals and in our state capitols.
Everyone bends over...
Obama vs. Romney seems to come down to one thing: Can we survive 4 more years of Obama?
If we can, then voting 3rd party to send the GOP a firm message about RINOs, is a good strategy. If that short term loss gives us a long term gain, then this is a good strategy.
If we cannot survive another 4 years of Obama, then it matters not what the long term gain is since the game is up and the USA is irretrievably a hard socialist nation, and what follows won’t matter since we won’t be able to vote ourselves back to freedom.
This is why the Obama vs Romney debate is so violent.
You have people adamant that Obama must be removed from office at all cost or doom will occur. This is short-term doom.
You have people adamant that the GOP must be punished for shoving Romney down our throats and to take their boy on top of McCain, is going to entrench the RINOs and we will never again see a conservative Republican. This is long term doom.
So you have the “anybody but Obama” crowd who are terrified of letting him have a 2nd term and can’t see beyond those next 4 years. These are polar opposites to the “anybody but Romney” crowd who prefer Obama to Romney because that sacrifice is necessary to teach the GOP elites to listen to us.
These 2 sides will never reconcile.
If you think our nation will be defacto destroyed by a 2nd Obama term, you can’t think beyond that to whether you are caving to RINOs in the GOP leadership.
If you think the Republican party will be defacto destroyed with the RINO that broke the elephants back, then you can’t think beyond that long term goal to the potential catastrophic damage Obama could incur to the nation, and believe the Dems will have to take the fall for their own policies.
We are irreconcilable. Half of us will win. All of us will lose.
WE NEED A UNIFIED NATIONAL CONSERVATIVE PARTY NOW.
I’M TALKING TO YOU SARAH
I’M TALKING TO YOU DEMINT
I’M TALKING TO YOU RUSH
I’M TALKING TO YOU HANNITY
Where is out Conservative George Soros and William Ayers to fund and push our conservative agenda?????
I'm not trying to be snarky here, I'm serious. I see nothing that Romney would substantially change, he'd just keep pushing us closer to default, war, and decreased personal liberty. In many ways he's more dangerous because it's less obvious.
HOWEVER we can't ignore the likelihood that the next president of the US will appoint anywheres from ONE to THREE Justices of the Supreme Court.
Obama's two appointments stink, but the one saving grace is that they were appoined to replace liberal justices. Next time out, we won't we that lucky..Imagine the damage that hat a liberal SCOTUS can do to the republic?
Yup..elections do have consequences..
“VOTE NEWT! Brokered convention!”
Wahoooo I am 100% in agreement with you!
And do you think the GOP wants to stop this continuous drive for unlimited, large collectivist spending? If you do then you are either naive or you are a complete fool.
