Poll Says 1/3 of Republicans Ready to Bolt Party

[Serenity Now]

True that W did a bunch of things that went along with the democrats, especially in his second term. A true test of whether there's any hope left in the republican party(A. you KNOW FOR SURE there isn't in the democrat party, and B. with the repubs controlling the presidency, with even a RINO who does SOME things right, and the House and Senate, we can put pressure on the government to behave properly. If the repubs still behave almost as anti-American as the democrats, THEN it's the end and time for all hell to break loose.

Katy bar the door, as they used to say, gird your loins, 3rd party, riots, blockades, strikes, stockpiling and fences etc.

You left out "human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria"

You seem to be implying that Republicans are uncivilized barbarians that will take to the streets with weapons if the elections don't go their way. Sort of an extreme example of poor sportsmanship. Are you sure you're not projecting? All the Republicans I know are quite law abiding and will just work toward the next election.

I thought that as well. Kind of like when they burn couches in the midwest?

That really escalated quickly.

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

Sicem's itchy for a new civil war.

[Tear Down This Wall]

I've only voted in two of the past five presidential elections, sitting out 2000, 2008, and 2012. After holding my nose and voting for Dole in 1996, I was done.

The ONLY reason I voted in 2004 was because the press was so negative about Bush that I wanted him to win. I didn't vote in 2000 because I thought the parties couldn't get any stupider: Bush and Gore?

Then came 2008 - McCain and Obama. Awful. Then came 2012 - Robotney and Obama almost as bad a 2008.

The 2016 field looks horrible on both sides. The Democrat will win no matter who that nominee is because Virginia, Ohio, and Florida have enough minority voters now to tip the electoral college pretty easily to the Jackas*s Party from here to eternity.

The Republican field is an embarrassing array of people who don't know they are embarrassing. The Democrats will nominate either the criminal Hillary Clinton or the communist from Vermont.

The Libertarians will, of course, run some sh*thead who won't be able to be understood by anyone except those with degrees in finance. And, the Green Party will throw up their own half-baked Stooge as well.

Thank you, Forefathers, for the Electoral College. I hope you are all rotting in hell as our country heads in that direction in a hand basket.

(Query: What the hell is a "hand basket" anyway?)

The country is in process of going to hell in a hand basket. The question is how much more abuse can America take before the silent majority is totally fed up. We have been law abiding, patient and full of restraint. Peaceful change is needed before everything becomes unraveled.

That's not what happens. What happens is like what you see in Mexico - the police give up on fighting crime, and the prosecutors give up on prosecuting crime. Eventually, they become part of the criminal syndicates that then take over.

People don't rebel in the streets; they try to lay low and not be noticed. Although my wife is from Mexico, I haven't been down there since 2008. She used to visits her mom every year; but, she hasn't been down there in three years now.

A couple of years ago, the police in a smaller town stopped my wife and her family and questioned them for about half an hour about our daughter who is very light-skinned. Because my daughter spoke Spanish so fluently for a child, the police eventually believed that she was, indeed, my wife's daughter, and let her go.

It's freaking scary down there. And, it will someday be the same here. There are too many stupid and poor now. And, it's not that they are stupid and poor, but that they are stupid, poor, and jealous.

We used to have stupid, poor, or both, and they'd try to work themselves up. Now, it doesn't happen that way. The stupid stay stupid and blame the education system. The poor stay poor and blame the rich. Leftists politicians fan the flames.

Republicans say nothing because they "look bad" if they tell the educators to shut up and educate, and if they tell the poor to shut up and work.

The only wildcard, potentially, are the immigrants who are rapidly bypassing Americans. They will give less of a sh*t than guilt-ridden white liberals when sh*t starts hitting the fan because they've worked their as*ses off for what they have and haven't "oppressed" anyone. It will be interesting to see how they react, if at all.

My guess is, they just do what the rich do back in their home countries - bribe the politicians and police in order to keep what they have going.

[Serenity Now]

My guess is, they just do what the Kochs do here - bribe the politicians and brainwash the populace in order to keep what they have going.

FIFY.

Kind of kidding. You have a unique perspective that I appreciate.

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

TDTW, of course you could be right about how things will go, but I believe we are possibly different here, in that there are MANY people here who are fed up, scared of our direction and situation. If democrats win again and continue as expected, to go down the authoritarian socialist/fascist road that they prefer, there well could be some political, grassroots objection and(maybe even) organized response.

Tim McVeigh would call that response hogwash.

[SicEmBaylor]

Tim McVeigh would call that response hogwash.

A good friend of mine was getting his PhD at Tech and we were talking about this very subject one day. We realized how many fears and complaints we shared with McVeigh minus the deeper paranoia and, of course, the unjustifiable violence of killing innocent men and women.

But do we share some commonality when it comes to distrust of the government? Absolutely. McVeigh wasn't necessarily wrong with all of his fears and complaints -- he was absolutely wrong for being a sick twisted psychopath who killed innocent people and tried to start some sort of conflict.

It's just that when the communists take over fully, there is no dissent. And, this is the first time in history that the commies will be led by faggots - so, it'll be doubly bad for normal people here.

What we'll end up having is a former Eastern Bloc/Mexico deal - races cobbled together that don't like each other with corrupt politicians and police looking the other way while crime syndicates kidnap and kill anyone they perceive to be in the way of their operations.

Sick.

Thanks a lot, Bin Laden.

Who you calling faggot? Bear? NTTAWWT! My, you paint the rosy(palms) picture!

TDTW, one story about the "hand basket" issue is that when the bad person
had their head chopped off, the head was caught in a hand basket, hence the
bad person, going to hell, had a hand basket as their vehicle.

[Serenity Now]

And, this is the first time in history that the commies will be led by faggots...

Like sports teams, you can only tolerate so much as fans. If you team sucks at winning or are full of terrible people off-field, have an owner you don't want to funnel money to, or coaches that are so darn dislike-able... you eventually either stop being a fan or find a new team altogether.

By the time the Messiah leaves office, we will be at 20 TRILLON in the national debt. We spent 434 BILLION last year alone to service that debt. There are many that say when we reach 24 TRILLION, all hell will break loose. We can be there in what 4-6 years?

So how do you cut back on entitlements when those folks are trained to believe that they are in fact "entitled" to all of those government goodies? The government goes to great lengths to get people on some type of assistance, abled bodied or not, it doesn't matter. Like to know how much they spend on radio, TV and print media informing the masses of all of the goodies they can receive, they just have to ask. A great majority of those that become dependent will become democrats, as the Dems are very efficient in reminding them of all they've done for them. They should be given the blame for creating the class of dependency they have. Unfortunately Rhinos are also culpable. And just try and make a program more efficient, which may very well be of greater benefit for those truly needy, and here comes "Granny being wheeled over the cliff". Vote for the GOP and they will take away your benefits. Joe Biden says vote for a Republican and "they'll put you back in chains".

With all of my discontentment with today's GOP, I know starting a new Party will hand the General election to the Dems. So what have we really accomplished?


It is all very sad indeed to see where we have "progressed" to over the years. Are we doomed? I would say we are. Absent a meltdown of our whole financial system/economy, how can the steps necessary to save us ever be enacted? This is by design what the Democrats want, a welfare, nanny state, and a majority now of the GOP are basically democrats, at least as to fiscal matters. So maybe the question is? How can we not be doomed in view of everything we see going on today?

I don't think I read "faggots" in their ruling. I searched it and everything. Maybe you should drop some more slurs while you're at it.

Income inequality is a lot to blame in this scenario. When most of the people with jobs are actually working poor that still need government assistance to survive, you aren't going to be able to just sit and be rich while everyone else starves for long.

The best thing for stability is upward mobility with jobs and education. That's worth spending money on.

Better than trillion dollar pork jets anyway
