Bob Dole Has Some Nerve
Breitbart.com ^ | 5/27/13 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 05/27/2013 2:15:28 PM PDT by paltz

Former Senate Majority Leader and 1996 GOP Presidential nominee Bob Dole excoriated the Republican Party on Fox News Sunday, saying the Party lacked new ideas and engaged in too much obstructionist activity in the upper chamber.

"They ought to put a sign on the National Committee doors that says 'Closed for repairs,' until New Year's Day next year and spend that time going over ideas and positive agendas," he said.

Additionally, Dole remarked that not only was he doubtful he could "make it" in today's Republican Party, but he believes Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon could not make it either in the current GOP, saying, "Reagan couldn't have made it. Certainly, Nixon couldn't have made it, because he had ideas. We might've made it, but I doubt it."

Do you have a better idea?

The grass roots Tea Party Patriots would have never risen if the Republican Party had more Conservatives.

I work toward a constitutional government. Neither the Republican Party nor the Democratic Party offers this luxury now. Republicans are a better source when seeking Conservative candidates who will honor their oath to the Constitution than the Democratic Party but Democrats are welcome.

Wait a minute! I finally saw tape of this:

IT'S DISGUSTING!!!!

That poor old man was barely coherent. He would've said anything he was coaxed to say. And now MSNBC is running it 24/7. That's just sick, sick, sick.

I always hated Dole, but this is just ghastly. Leave the old coot alone.
