Politics

Ooooooh, nooooooo!

I'm definitely gonna send him a large (for me) donation, in hopes it'll encourage him to stay.

Quote from William T Brooks

Is this Guy Any Good ?
Bill

Far as I'm concerned, Bill, he's the very best in the entire U.S.

Welcome to the real world, Bambi.

What's most surprising about this article is the source.

There ain't a doubt in my military mind that the federal government SOBs-in-charge share these thoughts.

Don't give an inch, base.

Good riddance, you unprincipled SOB.

Hell, he votes like a Dummicrat most of the time anyway.

Now if only McCain, Snowe, Collins and one or two others would leave the GOP, we'd have a relatively pure conservatism.

Quote from William T Brooks

I think you Missed The Point, He knew He Could Not Be Elected again if He Was A Republican in His State, and that Should Tell You a Lot About That Crooked Bunch That We Have In Washington On Both Sides !!!

Chilibill

Oh, I didn't miss the point, Bill. Specter perfectly illustrates the rottenness of politicians on all sides. They're so freakin' power-hungry that they have no compunction about changing their stripes in order to continue in office. I hope he develops a particularly painful cancer and dies within 6 months. Would serve him right.

Quote from Tbone

How great would it be to see Arley get beat by Toomey in the general election and prove those SOB's wrong.

Amen, brother. That would be one of the the best things to ever happen in the political world.

Unfortunately, I don't have much hope of it happening in the blue state of Pennsylvania.

Far as I'm concerned, the president for which I'm nostalgic is worth 50 of the "moderate" (read RINO) idiots who keep trying to convince conservatives like me that we should forget. It'll be a cold day in hell before I vote for any of those mentioned in this article.

Quote from Tbone

Maybe the Anointed One will nominate Judge Bork

Yeah, and maybe RR will soon rise from the dead too.

Quote from terry

Sorry if I intrude: I've tried to understand your talk (I've not read 144 pages, of course), because I'm very concerned with politic... I understand that the positions of many of you are similliar to Duke ones, isn't it? My positions are very similiar to them.
I'm in Italy and so I've not a clear idea about how politic is going on in the USA... what do you think about the new president? He seems to me not to be very near to my positions... but I'm very young and I know very little of USA politic, so I'm willing to hear your wise opinions. Thanks!

Terry,
You are correct in your belief that the political opinions of many if not most of the board's participants are the same as Duke's.

I personally am probably the most conservative, and opinionated , member of the board. All of my life (I'm 71 years old) I've been very interested and involved in politics, though I must admit that events that have occurred since the year 2000 have really soured me on politics. The reason I say that is because I thought the Republicans, who are supposed to be the more conservative of the two major parties in America, acted like Democrats in growing government and blowing the taxpayers' money. I also am convinced that George Bush was a total disaster as a Republican president and that most of the blame for the Democratic takeover of our government can be laid at Bush's feet.

I don't think you will find many people on this board who admit to liking Obama or his policies.

P.S.
I don't know how wise my opinions are but they're MY opinions. :teeth_smile:

Another so-called Republican heard from. I say so-called because as far as I'm concerned, no self-respecting Republican would work for the New York Times.

People like Brooks never tire of criticizing the trait of individualism, prized by conservatives. They're always urging us toward collectivism, (or, in Brook's words, "community-mindedness") which the liberals love.
