Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Candy Ass Republicans

Nobody can be better for Louisiana's business than Perry. I'M even thinking of moving my business out of Texas. He's following the California model of government. String all businesses up on the gallows until they cough up every nickle.

Barak would be a HUGE step up. What we really need from the state of Texas is LEFT THE HELL ALONE!

Maybe y'all can drag that old moonbat Ann Richards out for another dance <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Nah, THAT might be worse than Perry.

That zombie Richards formed the mold that Perry is from, well her and Chuckles Stenholm. That flake was the king of pissing in your pocket and telling you its raining. We're sunk and we know it.

This reminds me of a saying that I saw here someplace about it being too late to change the system and too early to shoot the bastardos.

Damn depressing.

So what is there to hunt in Louisiana?

SS

Beaucoups ducks and geese (most years), pretty good whitetail and lots of public land to hunt, turkeys.

Except for the big waterfowl concentrations late in the year, nothing you can't get over there. I do my deer hunting in Texas and Mississippi on leases because the WMA crowd scares me to death.

Conservative Judges?

That's Claire Wolfe! "America is at that awkward transitional stage where it's too late to work through the system, but too early to start shooting the bastards." I believe it's from 101 Things.

Incrementalism is the answer. It's how the libs have pushed this country so far left in the last 40 years. We need to have long term goals and work toward them step-by-step. Very few things in life come all at once..............

The best way to make a protest vote work is in the primaries, where a substantial number of us vote for a no-compromises candidate that shares our views. Our candidate will lose, but it will make our presence and power understood in the party, and they will want to pay attention to us. While we won't get everything we want, if we make a strong enough showing we will have some influence. If we stick together, we can grow our base and gain even more influence.

This approach works. It avoids the pitfall of electing extreme liberals because we ant to teach out moderates a lesson.

Dixie---Pastor Chuck managed to get his facts totally wrong in just the first two paragraphs, so I expect he got his law degree from the same web site he got his Reverendship.

I know Bill Pryor, and if that ain't conservative, I'm a Chinese admiral.

I agree and there is one other thing. What I have been preaching for years.

Take back the party

How do you do that? Same way we lost it just reverse the procedure. Start by attending your party voting precinct convention. Anybody ever been to one? Don't know about where you are but in mine five like minded individuals could control it. Then on to county and state and national. Take back the party.
Does that sound too simple. The way we lost it is because good people didn't want to spend the time fighting off those with agendas who did want to control the party.


BCR

How about taking back BOTH parties? We've probably got some Democrats 'round here, and personally I don't care which party ran a good candidate I'd vote for him/her.

Give me a Teddy Roosevelt, under either/any banner, and I'll pull the lever.

Let the PETA crowd go to the "green party;" have the Christian Coalition go form their own party; and gets business back to making jobs, money, and paying for people to work and not paying for Senators.

I wish I had some backup at them meetings, APATHY is what is killing this country. If you ain't involvrd YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!

Now, there's some food for thought. If a lot of internal pressure pushes the democrats to the right, where do the republicans have left to go? (No double entendre intended)]


Is the ongoing collapse of the democrats going to force them into a corrective shift to the right, and will that in turn force the republicans to move right also? I can't help but think that may be the result...but then again, I'd rather see the democrats fade away, let the repubs have the left, and then the real conservatives---the Constitutionalists---rise and set things right.

Oh, pardon me for snoring. Musta been dreaming.

The parties do cycle toward liberalism and back on both sides, but they do not maintain distance when doing it. Rather, they go to extremes and back to the middle in time, or response to each other. If the Dems start taking moderate votes away from Reps, they move back toward the center.

Those at the extremes are pretty reliable votes, so the fighting is for the ones in the middle. It is NOT about idealogy, it IS about votes.

Have you ever found somebody like that in the primaries--for the major parties, I mean? I haven't. The closest I came was Alan Keyes, who can make me involuntarily stand up and cheer in front of my TV; but even he has some pretty dark corners when it comes to victimless crimes, and I saw something recently from him that made him sound awfully floppy on the War On Terror.

Anyway, the entire concept of a "protest vote" implies the assumption that one party or the other owns my vote, and I owe it to that party. Perhaps that's true of you, but nobody owns my vote. I voted for Michael Badnarik because A) he was the candidate that came closest to supporting my agenda, and B) he didn't have a chance in Hades of winning.


If you can show me some evidence of something like this happening, I'd be interested. So far I see Republicans abandoning their base to a greater and greater degree and simply depending on "A vote for a third party is the same as a vote for a Democrat!" and "Remember Ross Perot!" to keep them in office.

But, Barak, the president isn't abandoning his base---I saw this in the New York Times (or was it CBS?) so it must be true.

He is a slave to his theocrat base---they're picking his judges and writing his laws and generally giving him his marching orders and talking points. Damn, man, it's a theocracy, haven't you heard?

At least, that's what I read. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Yeah.

This is an old but interesting perspective...

I would hazard to say that political reform is a hopeless venture.

I vote my conscience ,for who I feel is best for a particular office,I feel that those on welfare shouldn't have a vote PERIOD !!! And shame on anyone who doesn't vote !!!

I couldn't agree more but if we don't get out and vote for someone then it'll be Hillary or Cuomo or even crazy uncle Joe..I still gotta hold onto the belief that America will win again maybe not in my lifetime but some time..If we play our cards right this president may be the best thing ever to happen to the conservative party but we have to VOTE and until a viable 3rd party arises it's probably going to be a Republican that gets us out of this,not a fan of Christy,McCain and some of these other Rinos,(which are the real democrats)but if push comes to shove and we can't get a real conservative, what would we look like if another socialist/communist got into office,we would still be heading that way with a rhino just a little slower..
