Stop pretending to be Republicans. That is creepy.
I'm pretty much with you on this one snippy. It's high time we quit pretending Republicans value personal freedom and limited government. That old saw just doesn't fly.

Stop pretending to be Republicans. That is creepy.
Barry Goldwater knew that it takes compromise to govern this country. Right there greatly seperates the "stand your ground" Tea Party. That said, the Tea Party has no clue how to govern a diverse nation. They only know how to appease their narrow ideology.

aka
to move "Left" is open minded
to move "Right" is close minded
Indeed, anytime a liberal moves right in "compromise" , they are sell outs
like the Blue Dogs

However the left thinks they deserve leftward movement and become hostile when they don't get it.

Yes
any attempt to hold back this statist monster
all politicians have helped to create
is just not "open minded"

So in effect? Bipartisanship to the left means our way or else...and when they Do get it means they can pull farther left or else...
I always hated the word 'Bipartisan'.

Especially in today's MSM reporting of it
Like you said, Bipartisan means when one moves Left
The few successes of getting liberals to move right by Reagan, Republican Congress under Clinton, has been met with cries of "extreme" by the Left and the MSM.
During the Clinton capitulation to the right, the left was crying in Congress that old
people were going to starve and Republicans were "Nazis"
Yes, compromise to the Left and the MSM, our way or no way
The left has little appreciation for true compromise

I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!Barry Goldwater knew that it takes compromise to govern this country.

As a moderate independent voter, I have absolutely no problem with Blue Dog Democrats and I have no problem with the moderate Republicans. It's those who refuse to compromise that bug the hell out of me. It's as clear as day, those who refuse to compromise are definitely putting ideology before country. The Dems do it, the Pubs do it and the Tea Party is obsessed with doing it. It's America first for me.
He would laugh at today's "libertarians" for the closet republican nationalists they are.
Please.
Libertines are HARDCORE Leftists.
Rabbi's post on it from the other thread:
'The narco-libertarians are not conservatives. That much is clear. They have much more in common with liberals than you think.
For unilateral nuclear disarmament? Check
For withdrawal of military forces? Check
See the U.S. as imposing its agenda on other countries? Check
See 9/11 as basically the fault of US imperialism? Check
For unrestrained sexuality? Check
For legalized drug use? Check.
And a host of others.'
They are flying under the radar as Republicans (whoring attention) because nobody has vetted Ron Paul on most of these perversions.
At least they have been exposed on USMB!

Doesn't sound like a whole lot of room for compromise there, Buck-o.
Mebby 'cause suicide bombers aren't defending freedom or pursuing justice?I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice!

So why don't you geiz respect suicide bombers and the fine virtuous folks that brought us 911? At least those guys walk the talk.
Any fans of his in the area? I'm asking because I just read this bit;
Barry Goldwater would not have dumped Mr. Grenell; he would have told the carping Bible thumpers to go to hell.
The man who was once the voice of American conservatives slammed Pat Robertson for "trying to take the Republican Party and make a religious organization out of it." When Jerry Falwell opposed the appointment of Sandra Day O'Connor to the Supreme Court, Goldwater said, "Every good Christian ought to kick Falwell right in the n----." And, of gays in the military, Goldwater said, "Everyone knows that gays have served honorably in the military since at least the time of Julius Caesar."
After his retirement from the Senate, Goldwater warned that his party was being taken over by a "bunch of kooks." Well, the kooks are in charge now and Mitt Romney knows who is boss.
And I don't believe he'd recognize his own party anymore.
Mitt Romney kow-tows to the anti-gay religious right - baltimoresun.com
In fact, I can't think of anybody pre-2000 who would recognize today's Republican party.
No one over 65 recognizes either party from what it was when they cast their first vote!
Pretty much nailed it.No one over 65 recognizes either party from what it was when they cast their first vote!
I recall a 'family values' speech by Hubert Humphrey (the voice of the left wing of the Dem party and dem VP) that makes most all current repubs sound like lefties and the typical dem sound like a FAR OUT left wing radical

Perhaps, but he was a lifetime politician. It is very likely that he would have gone along with the changing times to maintain his position in the party.Pretty much nailed it.No one over 65 recognizes either party from what it was when they cast their first vote!

Humphrey would be a right-wing reactionary today.
