Rats (vermin) carry diseases or parasites that harbor diseases. First they brought their disease (big government, pro-choice, big tent, etc.) policies and ideas, telling us that we *had* to back McCain (RINO) and casting out the true conservatives. But then, when their RINO candidate looks to be about to lose, they run and scurry to the enemy leaving us with their mess.

Rats/RINOs won’t be let back in, they are nothing but spineless, sniveling, sychophants. There won’t be forgiveness (even if some of us are Christians) for these traitors. Next time, we’ll be following Palin, Thompson, Romney, Keyes, Steele, Pence, Tancredo, Bachmann and other true conservatives. The gates will be locked and the vermin will be left out in the rain…

I won’t be sending money to the RNC again. All of my campaign donations (if I can afford it after the Dems are done with me) will be going to individual politicians. I’m seriously considering closing out my 401k, taking all of my money out of the bank and moving the wife and kids to Alaska, or somewhere else remote to weather the coming dissolution of the US.

God help us.

My mistake: It is the Department of Peace and Non-Violence that is proposed.

Plus the sure-to-come Falklands-like surprise popping out of nowhere.

This is the one that scares me the most. Don’t know when, don’t know where, don’t know what, but I do know that we’ll probably have a novice in the White House thinking, “Oh crap, now I have to make some decisions…”

Question to you all: Any thoughts about where this Falklands-like surprise may come from? Just curious.

+1, reluctantly.

Frankly, Sarah is the best thing McCain has ever done. This race wouldnt even be close without her. Can’t believe someone as smart as Krauthammer cannot acknowledge that

Lord, help us. Orwell was not kidding.

BTW I saw a professionally printed lawn sign yesterday that said “Democrats for McCain”.

After this election, regardless of what happens, there will be a shaking up of conservatism. People such as me who are disaffected Democrats and others will join and embrace our fellow conservatives while the co-opted East Coast glitterati will continue to gravitate towards Obama and the Washington establishment. The East Coast glitterati will be disowned by us–we will not accept their leadership, nor will we support them in any way, manner, or form. We will find our own intellectual and political leadership as we chart our own course, taking what we find best from our forebears: Reagan, Goldwater, Eisenhower, all the way back to Lincoln and Jefferson and from across the seas to Burke, Hume, and Locke. To that, we will add our own unique contributions thanks to thinkers such as Krauthammer, Thomas Sowell, and Victor Davis Hanson, along with new voices, communicators such as Rush Limbaugh and others, and leaders such as Sarah Palin, Bobby Jindal, and others.

We do not need the glitterati. We will do just fine on our own. It might take us a while to get going and it won’t be easy as the Democratic Party will do its best to maintain its monopoly on power by crushing opposing voices, but we will persevere and we will succeed in the end.

Later on in the thread, someone suggested that we get together a list of all the Glitterati Faux-Conservatives who have cut and run. I would suggest that that is a good idea. We do not vote for any of these individuals should they run for office, we do not watch or listen to their programs, do not read their columns, do not patronize their websites, do not buy their books, do not support them in any way, manner, or form. We ostracize them.

Looking forward, does anybody think that Sarah, after getting more experience on national issues, could get on Chuck’s good side before 2012?

I think she can, actually. Krauthammer impresses me as the sort who thinks that actions speak louder than words. She gets some more experience under her belt (without falling prey to the corruption of the system), shows him what we all know about her–that she’s a quick study and and adept learner–and he’ll be on board.

Hot.

C.K. is the main reason I watch the evening news on Fox.
Many times I tune in late, just to try and catch his comments.
I don’t always agree with him but always enjoy his opinions and he often changes my thought process on a particular topic.
He’s that enlightening-almost always learn something each time I listen to him on air.
Thank you C.K.

He is the ONLY conservative guy on TV anywhere that I will actually make mods to my daily schedule to cut over to Hume’s show at exactly 5:35pm Central time to catch him.

It would most poetic justice if McCain and Palin win this election leaving the faux-conservatives sucking oxygen…

I don’t think Kristol or Barnes need to be on that list. I don’t always agree with them but so far as I know they have not endorsed Obama. In fact Kristol was out there supporting Palin when Krauthammer was very critical of both her and McCain.

I just can not understand how someone who calls himself or herself a conservative can endorse Obama, because of Palin or because McCain pissed them off in the campaign or anything else. How can you take any of these people seriously again?
