I share the anger of both of you, indeed I admit to a degree of despair. I pride myself, perhaps immodestly, of being among those who have been screaming about the treachery of Rinos.
I want blood on the floor of the House and the Senate (figuratively speaking, of course) in which Rinos are dumped from office. I accept virtually every one of the solutions which you two recommend. I myself have more than once suggested that we ought to consider the possibility of electing a Democrat in Boehner's and McConnell's place.
Mark Levin has been sounding the same tocsin of alarm and he has illustrated his warnings with anecdotes from his own participation in the Reagan administration. His conservative bona fides extend that far back and they are genuine because they are moments of real action. The last one I remember is his recounting the story of finding Saul Alinsky's books being distributed by the Carter administration at our cost.
Mark Levin has given the history of Rino domination of the party and their resistance to Ronald Reagan context so that we understand who the Bushes are, who the rest of them really are. He recounts betrayal by Orin Hatch on his program.
Mark Levin is not the problem, he is part of the solution, why in God's name do we shoot the messenger?
When the message runs 100% contrary to everything you believe in and stated above come election day, I’d think that would be pretty easy to answer.
Because thats what he does. And all the good works get flushed every election he does it.
What point is there to rah rah conservatism for 729 daus and then say “You know what? Lets just forget everything we said and did working toward this day for 24 hours and elect the RINO no matter what?”
That question is based on the actual actions of many right wing heroes and it has an answer. The answer is that it doesn’t make a damn bit of sense. Now why that is, we can debate. But ultimately it puts the very people you and I dispise into power.
So unless we have a brain injury messing with our sense of logic and reason, we can only come to one conclusion. It is a mistake to do it. Even if the guy doing it is a right wing superstar. ESPECIALLY if he is because like Stan Lee said, With great power comes great responsibility.
Now I don’t think you can fault the logic there because I believe it is solid.
