G O P United in What They Don't Want - Faces Bloody Civil War Over What They Want

[Uncensored2008]

Of course the Republicans are in disarray right now. Republicans care about what their candidate stands for. There are a lot of ideas coming together right now. The Tea Party, Libertarians, neocons all are looking for a candidate that can represent all of them. When they decide on one the Party will come together. The democrats don't care what their candidate stands for, they vote which ever way they are told to vote. They vote the party not the candidate. It takes brains to be Republican, any idiot can be a democrat.

The NeoCons have controlled the GOP since the first Bush. In many ways, this has been a disaster. It's true that Dubya held the executive for 8 years, but conservative beliefs have been in retreat, regardless of who was in the White House. And look at who the GOP ran? Frigging McCain??? Old Open Borders is one of the DNC's most loyal foot soldiers. Romney was well left of center, and only had the positive attribute of not being Obama.

Yes, the soul of the GOP is in question, will the Jeffersonian ideals that the party was founded on, through the Libertarian faction, drive the corrupt NeoCons out of power? The bureaucrats who actually run government depend on corruption, it is their life blood - they will fight Libertarians at every turn. The corrupt unions - well, enough said. The public employees with their corrupt pensions after 20 years and obscene benefit plans? The last thing they want is reform.

So while the Libertarians are the only hope for the SOUL of the GOP, the NeoCons have strong support from the corrupt democrats and the public sector.

Libertarians represent honest government - which terrifies Washington and the entrenched elite.

As obvious on this thread, the far right has outgrown the tea party as too tame, they need something like: The Total Hateful, Angry, Vengeful, Return to 1860, White Supremist Party

Speaking of angry...


You have some spittle on your chin, Comrade....

"....conservative beliefs have been in retreat...."

Yes they have been, certainly as far as political influence in the U.S. is concerned.

Conservatives have for years, put their ideology above the good of the citizenry - mostly because they believe Conservatism IS for the good of the citizenry.

Conservatives idolize Reagan as "the last great Conservative", despite his being one of the worst performing Presidents in U.S. history.

Reagan pushed Conservative ideology, while at the same time running the Country into the ground ... but his strong ideology - not results - is what makes him an idol.

Persistent economic failures take their toll on Conservative ideology.

Leftism isn't concerned with the masses. To the left, the "great unwashed" are just a resource to be consumed for the benefit of the elite - themselves. The masses are simply stupid sheep to be herded to the slaughter by hucksters like Obama for the propagation of power in the hands of the ruling minority.

Nothing offends the left as much as the libertarian ideals of economic freedom and personal liberty.

The Coming Republican Civil War

The last two Republican Party presidential candidates—John McCain in 2008 and Mitt Romney last year—have something in common. Neither one could ever qualify as a true life-long conservative. And a lot of self-described “real conservatives” want Republicans to keep that in mind as they begin to mull the field of White House contenders for 2016.

Conservative activists no doubt see the 2016 battle for the Republican presidential nomination as their best chance, perhaps since Ronald Reagan won in 1980, to put forward a real conservative candidate.

The conservative school of thought on the two recent elections is that Republicans lost because neither McCain nor Romney was conservative enough to rally the base, both times resulting in victories for Barack Obama. They promise things will be different in 2016.
