| [SultanKnish] 1. There is no conservative party There is a Republican Party. The purpose of the party and its politicians, much like that of its Democratic counterpart, is to obtain money and privileges for its major donors. That doesn't mean that its members don't have other ideals and agendas, but Republican politicians who rise high enough come from an urban and suburban establishment that is more liberal than its base. Expecting them to care as much about your issues as you do is unrealistic. They will only do the right thing insofar as it helps them A. Get control of money B. Advance their careers C. Become popular And this is a good thing. It means that they're controllable. It means that the Democrats are also controllable. And this is how the left took over the Democratic Party. The only way to interact with the large body of politicians is through the carrot and the stick. The "destructive" Republican saboteurs the establishment complains about, whatever their motives, are serve as the stick, undermining and sabotaging efforts to conduct business as usual. The only way conservatives can get anything done now is by threatening business as usual. Washington D.C. is never going to be the solution, but to the extent that its business as usual is threatened, sabotaged and held hostage, it will have trouble putting its boot on ordinary people. Until the Republican establishment changes its ways, populist saboteurs are the best conservative weapon. Don't expect them to do the right thing. Don't be disappointed when they don't. And certainly don't expect them to solve all this. The only way they will ever do the right thing is if you have leverage over them. |

| #2 I dunno, I still prefer shooting them. Gut shot with a double-barrel loaded with rock salt and rotten pork rinds from three feet. Let 'em die slowly and painfully. The only way to keep a Republic is to stand up and defend it against all enemies, foreign and domestic. The domestic enemies are the worst, and yell the loudest. The only way to keep from being a slave is to kill the slaveowners. |
