Some food for thought, which may not make me popular but might serve to focus on the attitude which cuts noses to spite faces.
I am NOT, repeat NOT a McCain supporter but to refuse to vote for a REPUBLICAN of any shade and thus help get Hitlery or is it Billery into the White House is a mindboggling mind set.
Fanatically similar, except for the subject matter with that of a Jihadist’s determination to get their point of view and control over us - even by killing us. Or killing themselves!!
What’s the difference in getting Hitlery and her Al Qaeda girl Friday Huma Abedin into the White House (by not voting or voting against McCain on face spiting, nose cutting, conservative “principles”) and the unthinking Jihadi imposing his outdated. Dark Age, religious mind set on us?
Republicans lost the Congress and Senate last time round because so many decided not to vote because they were disgruntled!!! This includes some of my closer friends.
Or by NOT voting for a REPUBLICAN, even someone like McCain, a RINO (Republican In Name Only) in many aspects, to perhaps help Obama as a result, a Moslem till age 16, to control our fate vis-a-vis Iran and the Islamic world and terrorism.
Good enough human being but totally unsuited to deal with Islam or terrorism, specially since his alleged change to Christianity makes him an apostate and subject to the death penalty in any Islamic society.
Are we also so fanatical in our conservative “ideals” that we are ready to scuttle the ship or burn the barn to get at/hurt McCain?
It’s our ship, our barn, our survival, even in a less than pefect format.
Are we so hard headed that we are ready to shoot ourselves in the foot to make a point? A point that will make our lives MUCH worse than McCain, or any RINO - except pehaps Ron Paul - could or would ever do - COMPARED to any of the Democrats!
My focus is purely on the safety of our nation not political details.
Do we not realize that our fissy huff only serves to help the “opposition DimRats”?
We sound like those Christians who refuse to accept medical help in the name of their religion and watch their children, wives, husbands or parents DIE because they believe so strongly in God that they will not help save them!
I respect their strength of belief but cannot recommend we all adopt it as our way of life. Not if we want our families to have good healthy life.
So why do conservative Republicans try to insist on the same thing. Except, again, in the context?
Where is that different to the fanaticism of the Islamic Jihadists? Other than in context?
Where is refusing to vote Republican and retain the White House, even with a RINO, WORSE than having Billery or Obama take it over???
For God’s sake people, please don’t do with the election what the West is doing with Islam - ignoring the alternative of what we face by appeasing INNER desires and PROUDLY and senselessly losing the war.
Until McCain became the apparent candidate for Republicans, this debate and stance causes no great harm. But NOW is the time to rally around the designated Republican - RINO or otherwise and fight the DimRats instead of continuing to splinter the Republican party, on which the SAFETY of our NATION depends.
Certainly compared to the even BEST the DimRats have to offer.
Wake up Republicans! Don't burn the country to make a point.
I'm one of those "fanatics" of which you speak. I won't vote for McCain because I don't think he is any better for our country than Clinton or Obama. From everything I've seen, they are all cut from the same cloth, there isn't much difference.
ReplyDeleteI do have one question, how is my "fanaticism" worse/different than those that will vote for someone just because they have an "R" next to their name? Or the ones that refuse to look outside their designate party? Makes me glad I'm independent.
For me it's quite simple, I'm a conservative, not a Republican.
ReplyDeleteI am disgusted with the GOP establishment, and the way they assume conservatives will queue up, and vote for a Republican. Especially when that candidate is a liar, a trampler of the constitution, and an unstable personality. I refuse to become an expected vote, like black Americans are for the donks, while getting nothing in return.
If there is no conservative candidate, I have no one to vote for. Of course, there are some upsides to having B-HO or Shrillary take office, further down the road.
Conservatives are beginning to amaze me in their inability to see what's really at stake here. This election is about more than McCain and his inability to follow conservative principals.
ReplyDeleteHow is handing the whole country over to liberals a suitable alternative to McCain?
There is a serious difference between McCain and a purebread liberal who is bent on destroying ALL conservative values as well as our country with them.
Anti McCain commentators such as Rush Limbaugh have ventured the idea that perhaps we should sit this election out and let the Dems have a term in office, claiming it might pave the way for a future shot at a candidate he and others will like in four years.
Imagine the damage our country will endure if Democrats control all three branches of government for 4 to 8 years.
This would give liberals what they will treat as a clear sign from America that is it ready to move sharply to the left. Not slightly to the left.
Cherry picking our candidate is exactly what got us INTO this mess, and if conservatives aren’t careful, they will throw the entire country into a liberal free for all...
There is no such thing as a quick recovery from 4 years of liberalism unchecked. We may be facing what will take years and years of damage to undo. What’s more, there’s no guarantee that it WILL be undone. Have conservatives completely forgotten Roe v. Wade and other extremely important issues? We need an allie on every core issue we can get.
Questioning McCain was right and highly useful for a time and a season. Many of us wish we had acted sooner to support Romney or Huck....
But staying home on election day allows liberals a pass to capture all THREE branches of Government. Do you want your kids growing up in that kind of environment?
I'm not asking anyone to sacrifice their own belief or convictions, but we have a serious serious problem here, that we can't afford to fall asleep on.
Give it some thought, friends.
