Just because we don't get it doesn't mean it isn't funny to them.



It does address quite a few failings in logic on their part.  Including one that is a problem over here too:  The concept that no bread is better than half a loaf.   Actually, that is a bit of anguish that quite a few conservatives need to think over.  Here in Oregon the last senate contest was between a RINO or a dimmi Jihadi.  Is the Dimmi Jihadi better than the RINO?  Are you going to sit out and let the Jihadi win because the RINO is a RINO?

Oh, I agree wholeheartedly, sir.

When the choice is between a RINO and a Democrat, the RINO is always the better choice.

One has to look at the whole picture, the big picture.

Republicans are generally conservative, and it best serves conservatism when Republicans control Congress.

If it takes a RINO to give Republicans control of the Senate or the House, well, Hell, no contest.

We're not Democrats, liberals, or primitives, after all.

One of the reasons I got fed up with FR was that sort of mindset.if a person isn`t pure it is better to let him/her lose which results in a person we disagree with probably 100 % of the time.
Never got that logic.

At least conservatives tend to be true to big issues where as libs can become obsessed with such minutia it is hilarious.

I thought the braille traffic sign joke was funny.  I'm sure the DUmp's blind inhabitants will be offended as soon as they find their computers and have someone read the joke to them.

I disgaree.  What is the real difference between a RINO and a DEM?

The initial behind their name?

If the RINO is going to vote or act like a DEM, then IMHO he/she is a DEM regardless of his/her declared party affiliation.

I have less than zero use for a person that will use mere party affiliation to get elected then act/vote just like the other party.

Specter comes to mind.  He should have switched parties years ago.

IMO, one major problem with the republican party is their acceptance of RINOS in the party.

Yes it is.  The new signs were designed by one of Duh One's blue ribbon extra special genius committees.  They feature extra large letters and klieg lights so the blind can read them more easily.

Sorry, rich, I can't agree with you there.  RINOs do one thing for the Republicans--it lets the Republican Party set the legislative priorities.  As in, do we have majority leaders and committee chairs that ensure that gun-control measures never see the Senate and House floor, because said measures are from the minority party?  Or do we let the Dems dictate the timing of then next gun ban?

Yes, and look how Nazi Pelousy locked the door when crafting the porkulus monster.  Sorry, we're in the majority now, you don't count.  No republicans allowed.  Even if we had RINO's, at least they couldn't lock the door.  Maybe we wouldn't be minority.  You have to think of how power-mad some people get, and what we can do about it.

Frank, as you well know, they have NO sense of humor.
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Ya know, I wasn't thinking about that.  Good point.
