First, being for NOTA isn’t about starting up websites. It is about spending four years busting ass to even get it put up for a vote like myself and others did. It is about what to do with those that were on the ballot, as well as a lot of other things.

Protest votes are still votes. Tom Tancredo for President, period.

Robert, I will always be your friend, even if you DID vote for McCain.

Fair enough Fred. I still believe that sitting the election out is a piss-poor choice.

John, I have NEVER advocated sitting the election out, that wasn’t me, I said NONE OF THE ABOVE, and that seems to have stirred a bit of controversy, it does NOT mean stay home, it means exactly what it says, NONE OF THE ABOVE…

And I am a firm believer in that philosophy…

But I am thinking you misunderstood MY stance, I WILL vote, but I am likely going to vote for someone that I write in, and that’s STILL a vote…

I hope this clears up ANY misunderstanding…

Well I am not voting Tuesday for McCain. But if he wins the nomination, and I am faced with Barrack Obama or Hillary Clinton or even worse both, I am not going to vote for them; I am not going to waiste my vote on nonsense’; I am not going to stay home and not vote.

As much as I am a conservative and love my conservative beliefs, I know that eithr one of these two will lead us not only left on the home front but make us more vulnerable on the battle front against radical Jihad terrorists. I will remember the firefight and survival is more important and thus will be forced to vote for McCain.

This Tuesday, I vote against McCain by voting for Romney. But in November, I vote for the sake of my country — not to save the Republican party — I vote for survival — I will not vote Democrat nor will I gamble with the security of my county by staying home, I will vote at that time even for McCain.

Now for all of you who are concerned, how many of you have stopped complaining and taken action by calling and writing all your friends and laying it on the line why you will vote for Romney over McCain? Or is it easier for all of use to just write in our blogs and complain. Yes, some of us may reach a lot of readers — but heck most of them already agree with us, BUT are you reaching your friends and family members. AGAIN WE WILL SOON ALL BE DEPLOYED ON THE BATTLE FRONT BECAUSE THE BATTLE FRONT IS COMING TO YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD – EXPECT A JIHADIST TO VISIT YOUR NECK OF THE WOODS SOON IF THE DEMS CONTROL THE WHITE HOUSE. Open borders, weak national security will invite them right in!

We all know what is going to take place in November (and in the current primaries); it is indeed a sad state of affairs. There’s not enough voters with an intact set of balls to make anything worthwhile happen. You claim that I’m apathetic, but I believe that I’m just the opposite. Those that would sit the election out are apathetic, while I continue to encourage people to participate in the political process.

It’s a shame that you viewed my post as a personal attack; it was, clearly, a statement of political opinion. I stand by it. My remark about you has absolutely nothing to do with your political stance, merely your actions of late.

Thank you for the tactful quote; it’s not what I expected, and says a lot about you.

I don’t agree with Ranando on a few things but he hit this one on the head.

I’ve watched GOOD friends, become very angry at each other, I’ve seen former and Current Marines that used to be the best of friends become combatants among themselves all over a matter of opinion about this election and minor view differences. FOR WHAT? Nothing.

We all disagree with some things, we all have a differing view on different issues, but to quit talking to each other, or to lose friends because of those differences is pretty damn sad. WE HAVE FAR MORE IN COMMON, than we have differences.

This election will be over soon, and we are either going to be defending our vote, or blasting the idiocy of the elected party… Time to pull it together.

IF because I won’t for McCain, I lose friends… it is their choice and not mine. IF I lose friends because of the way I state my opinion and it is judged to be a slam at them, I will re-evaluate my words to see if it could be so, Then we can talk about it as friends…The Key word is Friends, all of us at one time or another had each others back in one forum or blog at one time or another.
We shouldn’t forget that.

While I as reading all these comments I was thinking that there just might be ONE who could be written in, besides None Of The Above – I’d write simply “Under God.”

At this point in our political stance in the USA, He is truly our only hope as conservatives. While the dream of a staunch Conservative Party is very admirable, and as alread stated seems undoable before this election year, we can be reassured that it is the Winning Party. The war has already been won. The question is who in America are we taking with us?

Maybe, just maybe, the dems and dem-lites (makes me giggle each time I read that) will actually begin to realize that the lack of political viability being offered across the board is reason to consider actually MAKING a stance on the real issues. Maybe, when voting NONE OF THE ABOVE, the political party arenas “in power” now, will realize the powerlessness they have and seriously reconsider how they present themselves.

Let’s pray we are able to get a majority of absolute Conservatives to truly THINK and truly ACT. I know you’ve added one C-party activist here now!!

Thanks to all of you for supporting Texas Fred, and understanding his viewpoint. It’s difficult to go against the grain, but some of the most beautiful art is rendered such, and that’s what we aim to do as the emerging C-party (my new short hand witticism). Take Note AMERICA!
