Thank you for proving my point.
Say what you will but we have had threads here about how liberals don't even like calling themselves liberals but if somehow conservatism could be brewed into an energy drink it would fly off the shelves.
I don't really care about what people call themselves - other than the fact that progressives lie and pretend they're liberals.
But... you did prove my point. You claim 'conservatism' is practically a religion on the right and completely ignore the exact same issue on the left. Therefore, this thread is more about your own inability to see the flaws on your 'side' and, as usual, over-emphasis the issues on the right.

I have observed that there are those on the right who are often measuring one another based on some idea of what a "real" conservative is ... the term RINO is given to Republicans who don't toe the party line enough.
I'm sure this exists on some level with the left but it isn't nearly as prevelant as is on the right.
What gives?
Crist left the party. And, he took da money too.
I think I am supposed to laugh?
The conservatives (and their liberal and libertarian counterparts) who insist on ideological purity seem to be the same ones who must run in a herd and deny the credibility of all sources that aren't part of their respective echo chambers. They're the same ones who occasionally post that they can't be friends with or even on good terms with family members who disagree with them politically. Honestly? I think independent thought just scares the hell out of them, they don't understand it.

What they fail to see is that Conservatism is Anti Statist. Progressivism is Statist. Statism is soft Tyranny at it's best. Conservatism denounces Statists, both Republican and Democrat. It's no Hypocrisy, it's common sense. Nothing personal. Lock step Liberalism will throw anyone under the bus for going against the program, granted it's more the extreme wing, but it currently occupies the Hot Seat in the White House. I vote for Representation, Keepers or Masters.

Because we elect them to toe the party line.
And when they don't, we will bring them home and send someone who will.
The Tea Party is a conservative movement within the republican party. It doesn't speak for the republican party. The term "purity" is offensive, possibly deliberately so. Ever see a democrat that didn't toe the line about the abortion issue? Joe Lieberman was the democrat VP candidate and they threw him out of the party when he didn't "toe the line" about the war in Iraq.

"Joe Lieberman was the democrat VP candidate and they threw him out of the party when he didn't "toe the line" about the war in Iraq."

lets be real, the G.O.P. is republican in name only.
If you look at what our founding republicans stood for, there is an outrageous variance with the modern right

Michelle Malkin Netroots vs. Rightroots; left-wingers love blackfaceNetroots vs. Rightroots; left-wingers love blackface
The netroots/nutroots are putting their proverbial eggs in the Ned Lamont basket. They are pulling out all the stops with ad hominen attacks on Sen. Joe Lieberman. Don Lambro looks at the uncivil war faced by pro-Iraq war Democrats. Ian Schwartz has the Lamont-Colbert video. Look at the Photoshop that unhinged Jane Hamsher has posted of Sen. Lieberman at the Huffington Post:
I am so sure the Congressional Black Caucus and the NAACP and the civil rights brigade will be protesting this disgusting use of blackface in political discourse. Oh, wait, never mind. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are campaigning against Lieberman, too.

Update - Here’s a reminder of the last time a liberal blogger published a Photoshop with blackface:
I can guarantee you there will be no blackface Photoshopping on our side.
