I’m still at a loss on this. Something just doesn’t seem right about it.

It seems like too many Republican leaders support candidates just because they have an ‘R’ after their name, Newt is another example of this. What difference does that make if the RINO is going to vote along with the Democrat agenda? I don’t understand the thinking, other than as you said, it is just a big insiders club.
If Sarah Palin is on the ticket at all the 2012 election is doomed, I don’t see how she can possibly win a national election, I don’t know who the new Conservative leaders are going to be but it is time for them to step up.

Fred, I sure hope you are right. IF she is unemployed you think she’d move to Cali and get the ball rolling up hill? She’d be a step up from what we got and that’s a damn shame.

I haven’t liked Cheney since he was SecDef and fired General Dugan, the Airman’s General, at the beginning of the Gulf War and replaced him with General McPeak. McPeak who was hated by both officers and enlisted personnel later became Obama’s main military adviser during the campaign Cheney also retired the SR-71.

Ref (Silver Fox): ” I hope I can find a near perfect candidate in the next election and I will be watching for that rare bird—I just pray they are not extinct.”

Come fly with me!

A rare bird from Alabama…would like to run for Alabama’s 2nd Congressional District as an Independent…I’d run for President if I knew I had a snowball’s chance in hell!

Robert, Hutchison leaving the Senate to come home and run for Governor is a GREAT thing…

It gets her RINO ass OUT of the Senate, hopefully Rick Perry will kick the crap out of her in the State race and then we have Michael Williams running for Hutchison’s seat in the Senate… Williams is a Conservative… Hutchison is a miserable RINO!

Well, like I’ve said before Fred…I’d trade your idiots for our “Saviors” any day.
We got Arnie who isn’t fit to carry Perry’s water bottle after a brisk walk.

But as I’ve learned, the real power in state and federal government rests in congress. I don’t care if you had Barry Goldwater himself running the state, if the legislature is occupied by a bunch of Marxist/socialist libturds NOTHING will get changed or fixed. The way to get our country back is to change the faces in the senate and the house, the way for you to keep Texas is to keep the idiots out of office…Good luck.

Moderation is not and has never been my game—I detest moderation in politics. To me moderation shows a weakness in political beliefs and values and a willingness to compromise ones principals. I’ve been labeled an extremist as far back as the elecion in 1964 and the Johnson landslide. I find few candidates I can totally agree with , but generally those far too the right of center are my cup of tea. I know little of Texas politics, but Kay Bailey has taken stands in the senate that I did not support. From what I’ve seen of Rick Perry he does seem like a decent guy and a straight shooter. I love the truth from politicians and hate double talk. As for Sarah Palin I haven’t come to any firm conclusions and will withhold judgement. I’[ve opposed Cheney’s stand on immigration and some other things. I hope I can find a near perfect candidate in the next election and I will be watching for that rare bird—I just pray they are not extinct. A straight-shooting post Fred, have to give you credit for speaking your mind. But then thats nothing new for you!

Agree with you Fred. Can’t figure Cheney out on this one. His endorsement of “Bailout” is shall we say less than conservative. GOP is on a drinking binge and needs to hit rock bottom so it can be built up in the proper “we the people” manner.
