New York – Glum Republicans might turn their attention to the Libertarian Party to vent their anger. Libertarians are a generally Republican-leaning constituency, but over the last few years, their discontent has grown plain. It isn't just the war, which some libertarians supported, but the corruption and insider dealing, and particularly the massive expansion of spending. Mr Bush's much-vaunted prescription drug benefit for seniors, they fume, has opened up another gaping hole in America's fiscal situation, while the only issue that really seemed to energise congress was passing special laws to keep a brain-damaged woman on life support. In two of the...

This is directed at those so called "conservative" retards who did not vote for their Republican Senators and Representatives in the few close states, or who voted Libertarian or Democrat. I knew a country once. It was called "America". "Libertarians" and Republicans who didn’t vote; YOU ARE TRAITORS to that country and your so called conservative values. It’s that simple. And you just handed America to the Modern American Socialist party. Good job. Well done. GO TO H**L!!! I am so disgusted and ashamed of America right now I can’t even hardly type. I can’t sleep either. I can not...

Stay at home Republicans make no mistake your unenthusiastic view of this years GOP candidates has the potential to cause a measure of distress for the remainder of your natural life. Why ? 1. A Democrat wave that takes over Congress will be heralded by the MSM and the Liberals as a mandate to: a. Withdraw from Iraq (regardless of cost in human lives or the future outcome). Vietnamization of Iraq will be completed but unlike the result of Vietnam which was the Cold War against Communist aggression, the results of failed Iraq will embolden an unstoppable Radical Muslim uprising....

Yes I am like a lot of conservatives and have not been very impressed with the performance of the Republicans on issues like illegal immigration, controlling government spending, and waging a war in IRAQ that is too politically correct and with not enough force and vigor.But I am voting straight R's in 2006 and am staying the course with the Republican partyWhy?To sit it out and hoping to punish the Republicans is not an objective way to address the above concerns. If the Democrats take power its just going to make these issues get even worse than ever. We all...

The Republican Party can stave off defeat with a strong turnout on Nov. 7, party leaders are telling the faithful -- but they are finding it tough to sell that message to some disillusioned conservative voters. "The message hasn't gotten across because a lot of people are sick and tired of thinking the only reason for going to the polls is to vote for the Republicans because they are lesser of two evils," said Tom McClusky, vice president for government affairs at the Family Research Council (FRC), a leading social conservative group. "Conservatives aren't motivated to come out, is what...

John Stuart Mill once famously called the British Tories "The Stupid Party." From time to time since then, the Tory's American cousin, the Republican Party, has also earned that moniker. Now may be one of those moments. If current polls and anecdotes are to be believed, there may be a million or two conservative Republicans who are planning to not vote this November. Of course, Mill also said that : "A person may cause evil to others not only by his actions but also by his inaction, and in either case he is justly accountable to them for the injury."...

Screw you trolls, I'm voting and I'm Voting all R's!   I don't know about you, but I have had it up to and including my A$$ with all the whining that is going on around here about what the Republicans have or have not done to deserve your vote this November.. I know for sure that if we had the Democrats in power the past 10 years it would be a hell of a lot worse, with or without President Bush.. I'm not entirely happy about many things that are happening, (fill in the blank, with garbage on the...
