If you can get through most of this trash without ROTFL,, there is another mention of our “melting Snowe” campaign.

Go Erick. They HATE you. They Really Really HATE you. And us. Oh, and we’re just like the John Birch Society. And I haven’t reading the whole thing yet.

And did anybody know that Palin and Beck are the “undisputed leaders” of our movement? That’s a slander on Rush, right there /snark.

This is an excellent work.

On the other hand: Whom will your support go? KBH or Perry?

Bwa ha ha ha!

Thanks!

Cantor didn’t have the first town-hall in August that I am aware of.

Thank you.

Thank you for getting involved — we CAN take back this Party if enough of us just do it!

I think that the establishment is worried that Cuccinelli is not going to “wait his turn” and run for Governor for the next race, thereby forcing a primary against Bolling.

Conservative upset the apple cart. We keep talking about “prinicples” and “Constitutions” and “limited powers”. Horrible ideas for the run of the mill poliitician.

As one of Cantor’s constituents, I watch him pretty closely. And he is a typical GOP representative. He does NOT lead. He is NOT pushing a conservative agenda on principle. He is a social conservative but seems to believe that during a crisis, politicians always have to do something, anything…..

He won’t say no. He always wants to say, “Wait, we have a different idea on how to do the same thing….”

and yes I know, it took him awhile

I’m suspicious he did it to play catch up with Sarah…and because he took such a beating here…(Thus the reason he announced his endorsement here)…but at least he endorsed Hoffman…and that’s one less strike against him IMHO

you’ll almost never hear even the conservative Republican incumbents tell conservative audiences this. Because they, too, like the status quo just fine — a MORE conservative Republican Party might cause a MORE, BETTER conservative candidate to challenge them in the primary. Their paramount goal is to get re-elected, and a more conservative Party might threaten that. So, mum’s the word.

I’ve mentioned this before…I was stunned…when I first started attending Conventions and party meeting…at the level of resentment that the party regulars showed toward the Conservative activists who turned out in record numbers in 1994.

keep in mind…these party regulars I’m speaking of are the ones who had held power in Texas when the Democrats controlled this state lock, stock, and barrel since the civil war.

and the conservatives they resented are the ones who showed up in massive numbers and took over precincts, and district conventions and took the Republican Party from not holding a single state wide elective office in the State of Texas…and a thin sliver of representation in both state houses to holding every single state wide elective office, and eventually…though it was a decade later…they took over both State Houses…

Conservatives are hated, despised and resented in party leadership and by the time I got involved in 2000, the ground swell had died down…the party hacks were back where they thought they belonged…and the conversations I had with them about the 1994 to 2000 time frame were filled with vitriolic attacks and hate filled rhetoric. I kept my mouth shut until after the 2004 elections earning a position on the credentials committee for my district until I couldn’t take it any more. 2004 was a base election…and conservatives were beginning to show up again that year…and the old guard were up to their smears and vitriol again. along comes 2008 when the attendance at the convention was noticeably down and I went from being on the credentials committee to having the party ask me to check in people and take orders for lunch.

I’ll tell you…conservative’s backs are up and it’s gonna be a bloodbath in Bexar County coming up…We’ll win again I’me sure of it…but conservatives need to go into this with the attitude that we can’t just win this battle and rest on our laurels…we need to decide we’re in this for the duration of the war…and once we take the ramparts…we need to man the defenses and be determined to fight the inevitable counter attack.
