Thanks,its hard not to learn here,great place to be FR.
Larri, Larri
Belt it out baby...atta girl.
Way to be.
So in Christies world its OK to sacrifice the 2012 elections just so NJ gets dough? Not my kinda guy sorry.
Agree. His embrace of O sealed the deal for me. He talks a good game, but plays like a politician.
I think part of it can be explained in that over the past few elections, we’ve seen conservatives sent to the back of the bus, to use Obama’s expression, and the RINOs were the only ones allowed to drive-John McCain, Mitt Romney—now trying with J.E.B.
Meanwhile, when they did throw us a bone, such as Governor Palin, look what the Journ-0-lists did to her. Where was our RINOs on defending her? She was theirs—as well as ours—Vice Presidential nominee, for goodness sake!
So then we had a spontaneous grass roots effort in the TEA party, but THAT effort was excoriated and smeared as a racist, Bible-thumping bunch of white privilege rednecks, and once again, where were our “allies” the RINOs and their Chamber of Commerce financiers? Joining the Left against us!
So then we went into the 2014 Mid-term elections working our tails off getting a Republican Senate while keeping the house and what did we get?
Where are the daily bills to repeal Obamacare, go after Benghazi, IRS-gate, Fast and Furious, to name just a few?
It’s no wonder we no longer want to “play”.
BUT-—
If we love our country, then we must. Maybe we’ll just be lonely voices crying in the wilderness, but we can’t just go home and lose—there’s too much at stake.
SO-—
The primary season starts this Fall. Let’s promote, contribute and campaign for the most conservative Republicans we can in each and every primary. Blevins did not get enough support so McConnell cruised into the leaderless leadership. Same thing in many races. We’ve got to do better in 2016. PRIMARIES, not GENERAL elections. THAT is where we make a difference.
Im serious about Ted Cruz.....this guy has never said a single word with which I have disagreed.
He states firmly, that he admires Donald Trump for taking a stand on the problem of ILLEGAL immigration (key word here is ILLEGAL) and he will not engage in that media game of forcing Republicans to badmouth each other. A game into which Bush, Rubio and Perry eagerly joined in, I must add.
Im telling you true, my ear is to the ground and Cruz is rumbling. And hes not like Palin, filling a VP slot and subject to a mighty media attack.
I also, ear to ground my political junkee self, also think that Rush Limbaugh likes Ted Cruz. Cause I know Limbaugh and I adore Cruz so.....
I know Rush doesnt like to endorse candidates....but this upcoming election is so important....we must not elect either Clinton or Bush....gee those names sound familiar.
Id sure like Rush to back Cruz is what Im saying here.
Nice summary. Hope it happens and also Rush sees the value of a potential Cruz/Trump combo for the straight talk it would bring coupled with guys who have courage to tackle problems even when their own party stands in the way
And the Bromance on the (wind-swept) beach...
Shi'ite... Get a room!
That was the final nail in Romney’s campaign.
One needs to remember that Spain had just overthrown the Moslems. The Grand Inquisition may have been an effort to make sure those who remained were Catholic, and therefore loyal, citizens.
Well you got me sitting here laughing. I never heard it called Sharknado but I like it.
Again, IT WAS A THUNDERSTORM.
They had a special recently about , heh, Hurricane Sandy....Dateline or something like that.
Mostly the show boo-hooed that these people weren’t getting enough money from the gubmint....first I’m wondering....WHY DO THEY GET GUBMINT MONEY? They didn’t have their own property insurance?
Next they show the inside of many of these not-yet-fixed houses and go on, those were the most horribly built houses mine eyes inherited from a carpenter ever saw. Also I lived on the water....near the water....you gotta do things....maybe built on stilts.....you got this beach shack sitting on a bunch of loose sand and now you want the gubmint to pay to build you a brand new home up to standard?
During this show they kept calling it “Hurricane” Sandy and I shake my had and say....badaboom, they just start calling it the wrong thing and it becomes the truth! We have no opposition party out there telling the truth.
Same sort of thing happens down here in Delaware. We got an entire beach now composed of imported sand as every year they get federal funds and go out and fill the beach up with sand lost during the winter as nature tries to reclaim what is its own land.
They kiss some butt to get this sand....Rehoboth Beach, one of the largest homosexual communities on the east coast, not saying that means anything.
But it’s funny how they don’t worry about nature when its doing what it does but their donors don’ like it.
Rehboth is in Sussex county and our Republicans got to play nicey and....well I don’t have the answers but I at least ponder the matter.
I like what he is saying, but I am very skeptical at this time.
Sadly, you simply don’t get it...or you’re a Rubio “amnesty for 40 million” supporter.
I think you’re right. This also means we have to keep finding and electing tea party candidates to office. In many cases this also means we have to replace state party officials. It’s going to take time. I just hope we can get it done quick enough.
No. “Sadly,” I think you misunderstood the post and poster. Nothing is worth discussion until the border is closed.
Who ya callin' a FB, Laddie???
“Ted sounding weak on the 40+ million ILLEGAL invaders...sigh.”

IMHO, Ted handled himself well and refused to bite on F.Chuck’s continuously dangled bait questions about deportation/amnesty. F.Chuck appeared quite frustrated by Ted’s measured responses and his hands were visibly shaking when he tried for the 3rd or 4th time to get Ted to say something definitive about amnesty...Ted just calmly gave that little giggly smile of his and stayed on message...poor F.Chuck...No Gotcha moment today, little man!
Exactly I don’t see him going anywhere.
