Time To throw Out the 169 Identified RINO's In The House

[The T]

so do you vote for these "Republicans" who dont adhere to your principals?....

Only as the lesser of two evils. It would be quite nice to have a conservative Democrat that would give me a real choice, but they don't seem to exist anymore.

Far too many real conservatives have given up the fight, and just no longer vote. We can bring them back if we can get real conservatives running for office.

Only as the lesser of two evils..

so....you vote Republican....no matter what....in effect you would vote in a person who has the welfare of the Republican party at heart over the Country....right?....not very principled....the lessor of 2 evils is still evil......vote 3rd party....you might find someone there who actually cares about the Country....

Agreed. Don't vote for anyone that has a track record of voting away liberty regardless of party. I am quite fond of Washington's Farewell Address and his warning of the 'party system'.

"It serves to distract the Public Councils, and enfeeble the Public Administration....agitates the Community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms; kindles the animosity of one....against another....it opens the door to foreign influence and corruption...thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another."

Thank goodness the Small Tent Republicans lost.

This insanity has gone on long enough.

Do you really believe these people should make a "career" in government?
It's not about a big or small tent...It's about these people serving so long they become eletiest asses , corrupted and self serving.

It's always hilarious when libturds believe they have the necessary credibility to tell Republicans who the "real" Republicans are.

One note about fiscal responsibility: It sure as hell doesn't mean to increase spending even more than we were spending previously. However, that's the liberal conception of "fiscal responsibility" - spend! spend! spend! The so-called "compromise" doesn't cut a thing. There's no reason we can't start hacking off 20% - 30% of federal spending. Instead we are increasing it.

And compromising with Marxist thugs is evil.

When good compromises with evil, good always loses and evil always wins.

Ok, fine. Suppose YOU tell us who are REAL Republicans and who are RINO's?

.

Real Republicans have the welfare and direction of the country at heart, versus having the welfare of the Republican party at heart. We don't win unless our Republican principles win. Just putting some clown in office because he/she has an "R" by their name is not winning.

Fellow, think about what you have said, and the way that you phrased it. 'Real Republicans'. Kind of like 'Real Americans'. Exclusion of anybody that disagrees with you as someone that does not believe that they have the welfare of our nation at heart.

One has to accept that the other guy in most cases is just as certain as you are that what he believes is best for the nation. If you demonize everybody that disagrees with you, you end up very much in the minority, and ostracized as a trouble maker.

You obviously have no concept of what a traditional conservative is, or the real purpose of winning an election. I do not win just because a Republican wins office. I only win when that Republican holds to and votes for conservative principles.

This is not a ball game where we add up points. This is real life and the decisions made by our politicians determine the quality of that life.

I support the Tea Party principles, and I support the budget deal just made. Mainly because this is the best deal that we can get with the present makeup of congress and the presidency. Don't mistake a difference of opinion on strategy and tactics as any rift over conservative principles.

And that's your opinion. My family has been basically traditional conservatives since they moved to the US. For years not only did they vote straight ticket GOP but also donated a good deal of money directly to the party. But in recent years they have decided to donate to individual GOP candidates who are now considered moderates and are willing to act like adults and compromise.
The for right makes up a small element of the general populace in America and the reason is simple, the Tea Party and far right are just too extreme and don't represent what a vast majority of Americans believe, whether they be moderate conservatives, centralist and of course liberals. I also think the far left is also out-of-touch with America.
Extremism has never successfully led to positive results.

Desiring the federal government to live within its means is not extremism. Desiring the federal government to limit its activities to those delineated in the US Constitution is not extremism. Desiring candidates for public office to govern according to the principles they campaign on is not extremism.

Compromise is not a dirty word, but compromise for the sake of compromise is a dirty phrase, and does not make anyone an adult. When the train is running in the wrong direction, compromise on how fast we go is not the proper course of action, regardless of how smart or adult it makes one feel.

If the nation was as moderate as you like to believe, congressional candidates would not be campaigning like the fiscal hawks that they have no intention of being. You need to reevaluate your contentions.

OK. In the last 40 years, has the GOP or Dems ran up the biggest deficits? Which Presidents did the most to increase the National Debt. Which Presidents did the most to balance the budget? What President tripled the National Debt, and which party did he belong to? Beware of hypocracy.

When in doubt blame you neighbors...not the people in charge..not the people who own the world. No not them. Heaven forbid you look up sheep.

Blame your neighbors.

The ones whose lifestyles you disapprove of.

That'll fix it.

the Republicans have become just like the Democrat party...they drove out all their blue Dogs for not toeing the leftist/Progressive line

Same with these Republicans...If people don't goose step to their big government ideas, they attack them

Both parties are just disgusting and shameful in how they conduct themselves

OK. State what you believe are the correct principles, and start your own political party. That is how the Republican Party was formed prior to the Civil War.
