Virginia FReepers! - Time to give John RINO Warner the Heave HO!
3/21/2002 | P8riot

Virginia Freepers - John RINO Warner has oversytayed his welcome! He has turned his back on the people of Virginia, and the United States. His betrayal of his oath to uphold the Constitution, by virtue of his vote in favor of the McCain-Feingold bill, has confirmed what alot of us already knew concerning his liberal leanings.

Fellow Virginians, now is the time to deal a blow for freedom in this Commonwealth, and the country as a whole. The United States, and the people of Virginia deserve someone who will look after their welfare, and their Constitutional Rights. Today let us begin the search for the man or woman of the highest character, who will hold to the highest ideals, and who will stand in the gap for all Virginians. Let us elect someone who will treat the Constitution with the highest respect, and will not compromise their beliefs based on political expedience, someone who will fight for the freedoms that we all hold so dear.

This great nation began in our Commonwealth. The lamp of freedom was kindled almost exactly two hundred sevenety seven years ago by no less a Virginian than Patrick Henry, the first governor of our free commonwealth, when he said:

"If we wish to be free-- if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending--if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained--we must fight!"

Our nation's struggle began here, and it ended here at Yorktown in 1781.Today we are engaged in another struggle, the struggle to preserve the freedoms for which so many of our countrymen gave their lives. This struggle may not be with the use of arms, but it is a war nevertheless. The struggle is against a philosophy that threatens the very fabric of our wills. Our heritage compels us to action, and our freedoms and livelyhoods demand it.

Let us go forward now, and deliver a message to John Warner that we hold him responsible for the errosion of freedoms in our land. Indeed, we are the only ones this side of judgement that can do this. Those in other states who are likewise disposessed must also do the same in regard to their representatives. Let us select such a person as will be the true representative of the people of our great Commonwealth. Let the search begin now. Contact the representatives, or other individuals, that you trust will uphold the highest ideals of our great Republic. Leave no stone unturned. We must not hold our peace now, or we will forced to do so forever.

It's called Free Speech. If you don't like it, too bad.

My point is that I am seeing more Bashing from Republican to Republican than from Republican to Democrat. Keep up the good work guys. It's because of people like you who didn't want to vote for George Bush SR. because you considered him a RHINO and you stayed at home or voted for Perot that we had 8 years of Clinton/Gore and we had 8 years of you guys bitching about it after the fact.

Warner put Robb back in the Senate when we could have had a real conservative--Ollie North. I've written to Warner several times to exprss my opposition to gun control legislation. His replies basically told me he marches to his own drummer. I won't vote for him again.

I live in Alexandria and think Warner is an old windbag. I think he is only interested in the ego gratification being a Senator provides - the only things he seems to belibe in strongly are liberal causes.

Gee, we coulda had a winner like Bob Dole, tax collector for the welfare state. hahahahahaha

But what the hay, as long as the guy whose ass is polishing the seat wears a little lapel button with an elephant on it, that's all that matters, right? To hell with principles, eh? If that's your position you have a lot of company among Republicans, but I don't think that's good company.

Oh, gawd. Get some time voting. Sheesh. I want to elect a conservative to complement George Allen (who voted against CFR). I don't want to vote for a Democrat, egg his house or do burnouts on his lawn.

As a purported conservative, you should take umbrage at anyone who directly and unabashedly defiles the Constitution of the United States.

John Warner stands against the first, second and probably the tenth amendments. You prefer politics? I prefer freedom.

John RINO Warner has oversytayed his welcome!

Anybody who could talk Warner into retiring would be doing the Republican party a huge, huge favor.

The last thing, and I mean the very last thing I ever want my tax dollars being used for, is bombing Christians for the benefit of muslims, and that goes triple when the muslims in question are a bunch of savages and narco-terrorists responsible for 80% of all European crime, and I tried to convince somebody, anybody in Warner's office that there was a major kind of problem when Klintler set out to do precisely that three years ago, and all I got was people telling me that God was on the side of the Albanian Kosovars and that I was dimented for thinking otherwise.

There should be no place in Republican politics for anybody who bought off on that BS. Moreover, there is a very attractive libertarian running for that seat and it's very far from obvious that I could hold my nose hard enough to vote for Warner under the circumstances, and there's a major kind of possibility of a rat taking the seat.

I mentioned these things to some of Warner's reps who showed up at one of the C&E gunshows at Richmond a few weeks ago, but they need to hear it from lots and lots of people.

Bob Dole was probably a bit more conservative then John Warner. He lost my vote when he said the so-called Assault weapon ban didn't matter. Guys like Warner and Dole keep me from giving one penny to the Republicans!

Ronald Reagan was the greatest President this country has ever seen.

And don't you ever again use some inane, sophmoric smear tactic like attributing anything about David Duke to me.

Understand?

It won't be Warner. I'd like to see someone like Virgil Goode, Vance Wilkins (but we really need him here), or Jerry Kilgore (but we really need him here). That's my point. We need to get out there and find a better candidate than Warner.

Let's not forget this *proud* moment in Senator Warner's career:

Oh, I remember very well. Mr. Warner knows well which side his bread is buttered on.

By the by, Frank Wolf has to go too. He was the ONLY VA Republican to turn over on CFR. Northern Virginia FReepers, take note.
