We can't afford to let sour grapes put the communists in charge.

We can't allow our blind devotion to a bunch of stiffs that run left every chance they get to make us wish the Dems are in charge. Voting GOP has been no cure to what ails us, with the exception of RWR in '80.

If we can give the republicans some breathing room they can afford to move further to the right.

Give me a break! The GOP will never run right, as long as they are in power. They will ALWAYS adopt the strategy of "blur the lines of distinction" to stay elected. The only two times in my lifetime they campaigned to the right, they had significant pick-ups ('80, '94). Every other time, they ran left and got spanked. When they run right, I'll vote for them.

But lets be real here. Another few years of clintonian style government will just about finish us.

I agree. With 14 consecutive years of Clintonian government in the WH, I wonder what the future of America holds.

Its going to take some time to repair the damage. Stay the course. It can be morning in america again but we need to sweep the demonrats out. Remember they are wicked and evil.

I've been hearing that my ENTIRE life (35 years), and it is worse today than ever. The GOP is a joke. Take a look at the spending bills the GOP has authored. Take a look at the police state inititives they have put in place. How is the IRS today? The GOP has always turned gov't power toward the people, and have been much more sinister in the advancement of the police state than when the Dems ran the place. The GOP is not the cure for what ails us. Unfortunately, no one else is. The Dems will kill us, and so will the GOP. Today's GOP is as liberal as the DNC of 15 years ago. We hated the DNC then, so why not the GOP today?

Congratulations! You are very perceptive, and correct.

I can remember back when the Democrat Party was run by pro-American, anti-communist Liberals. After the 1968 Democrat Convention riots, the Leftist-Marxists began taking over the DNC. Tom Hayden, John Conyers, Hillary Clinton, and others began their political careers.

Over the years, the Democrat Leftists completely purged the old Liberals who came to the Republican Party and were known as "neoconservative."

The Left was never satisfied with just one party - we are now observing the systematic takeover of the Republican Party as well. The big difference now is that conservatives have nowhere to go.

There was a time not too long ago when Pat Buchanan's ideas were accepted in the Republican Party ... then they became "controversial" ... now Pat is demonized as "anti-semitic" "homophobic" "isolationationist" and "racist."

Re your post #35 -- you speak for many of us. Time for the average Americans to look elsewhere for representation -- it isnt with the Dems nor the Repubs. No one is representing the average American -- yet it is our sons and daughters in uniform who will be fighting in a war shortly to preserve ? ? ? ? Virginia in general is being invaded. Immigrants are beginning to outnumber citizens here in Northern Virginia -- getting worse daily. I feel like the foreigner and my daughter is now a minority at a once All-American high school in western Fairfax County. It seems like the demographics have drastically changed over night. Where did America go?
