Something to keep in mind
« on: February 03, 2012, 11:18:22 AM »
As we go through this primary season where we are saying that a compromising RINO is better than someone of true conviction and belief in our constitution I remind you that as important as it is to defeat Pres. BHO in November there is a more important issue.  To the liberal crowd putting Pres. BHO back in office is a major victory; putting a RINO (Romney) in office is a victory; putting a RINO (Newt) in office is a lull in the battle giving them a chance to rest and regroup; but putting a true American that believes in the ideals of this nation is a loss to them.

We need to quit buying into the media coronation of Romney as the GOP victor!  The more I read their stances and histories, and the more I follow their day to day debates and speeches the more I detest both Romney and Newt.  These two are career "servants" that will bring us more status quo at best.  I am not in full agreement with Santorum or Paul either, but I do see better ideas with them.

People say that government can't make major changes.  It just doesn't work, it isn't practical, too many people and items are in the process to make major changes, blah, blah, blah ...  When you are on a cross country trip you can pump green slime into a leaking tire to get by, and you can do it more than once, but at some point you need to stop and change the tire or get new tires.  It is time we quit our duct tape politics, and fix the problem.  Accepting a status quo anything will not fix the problem!

Keep the following quote in mind as you pull the lever:

Quote
The time is now near at hand which must probably determine whether Americans are to be freemen or slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their houses and farms are to be pillaged and destroyed, and themselves consigned to a state of wretchedness from which no human efforts will deliver them. The fate of unborn millions will now depend, under God, on the courage and conduct of this army. Our cruel and unrelenting enemy leaves us only the choice of brave resistance, or the most abject submission. We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die.

General George Washington
Address to the Continental Army before the Battle of Long Island (27 August 1776)

For those who are thinking about not voting if their favorite is not running for President, open the link and read it. Then rethink your decision.

I don't have a twitter account, so I didn't read your like.  However, I will go on record of nearing brain damage from beating my head on the desk over these idiots that think it is better to not vote than to vote for the lesser of two evils  >:(

I will vote, but I am pissed that we have already conceded that we must run a RINO rather to try and get someone worthwhile in office.

M58, what it said was either vote or consider this, "Supreme Court Justice  ERIC HOLDER"  I hope this helps you to sleep at night.

Keep the following quote in mind as you pull the lever:


No one is saying that.
What is being said is that while we vote for who we think will do the best job in the primary we have to face the fact that the establishment is likely to give the nomination to Romney.
Better get use to " our duct tape politics," because no one has guts enough to make the changes that need to be made.
All this BS about "principals" and the other idealistic crap sounds good but it ignores the reality which is that most people in America today want big Govt to tell them when to shit and when to wipe because they are to stupid, lazy, or gutless to take responsibility for their own lives and actions.
Stalin and Hitler would have loved these sheep.

Tim,

I don't care what others think about being dictated to.  Right is right, and wrong is wrong.  We have not even had a vote in February yet, and everyone is preparing for the Romney vs. BHO election.  BS!!!  We still have a lot of time to vote for the right person and to fight for what is right.

Come November we may be forced to vote for the non-Pres. BHO choice, but today we still have the chance to shape the election in a way that gives us a true leader that will honor our nation.

Who do you have in mind?  If it's any of the remaining four, I don't see it!

That's all perfectly true.
But be prepared to see your preferred guy lose to the "progressive haircut" for the reasons I stated.

Keep the following quote in mind as you pull the lever:


If this keeps up, the solution will devolve to pulling something other than the lever....
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

Of the four remaining I prefer Santorum first, Paul second, and the other two are a toss up.  

Santorum and Paul at least offer something of true change back toward where we should be.  They both have things I don't agree with, but Newt and Romney are going to continue to do what they have for decades.  Actually, the more I read and listen to info from the left Romney is actually BHO lite (and I don't mean that in just skin color).  Newt will talk big, but in the end he will sell us down the river.  Paul, Romney and Newt will continue to do more to send more jobs overseas.  And even though I feel that Santorum has issues of his own, I like the fact that he is trying to make this a campaign of what they believe and will do versus a beat each other to a bloody pulp so that anyone that shows up with a mop (Pres. BHO)  is a here.
