conservative review of Republican candidates

[SheriffJoe]

So the 25+ members of the freedom caucus should be able to control the legislative priorities of Congress? Essentially 4% of Congress should hold that much power?

Maybe you should realize these folks are not republicans. They are obstructionist radicals.

It's disgusting watching these same 25 folks tarnish Paul Ryan's name. All because he actually tried to find reasonable solutions on immigration and the national debt? Funny I didn't see you comment on Willie's post noting that a stance of deportation and deportation-only is illogical.

These radicals want to shutdown the government and couldn't care less if the government defaults. That mindset is uninformed, and quite frankly, crazy. Not a sound way to promote economic growth and security.

Yet radicals like yourself support Ben Carson, a person who doesn't know what the debt limit is. Disgusting.

Unfortunately, Paul Ryan went over to the dark side.

Washington is a corrupt mess and terminally broken.

Nobody follows the Constitution or Washington's institutional procedures anymore (House or Senate), so if 40+ members (I misspoke when when I said 25, it's well over 40 and growing) gum up the establishment works that's fine with me.

Remember, we don't elect Republicans to rubber stamp the left's radical agenda. We elect them to stop socialism and statism from violating our individual rights.

The House Freedom Caucus finally forced Boehner and his hand-picked heir apparent McCarthy out the door because they both chose power politics over principle. They won't be the last casualties. As the Freedom Caucus grows, so too will its influence and power in Washington, and what sane voice outside of the establishment could possibly complain about that?

LMFAO. McCarthy got forced out the door because he has loose lips, and told the truth about the Benghazi Committee. The Republican's can't have someone in such a high position that might actually tell the truth. The House Obstructionist RINO Caucus had nothing to do with it.
Who is this "we" that you refer to, since you're a Canadian and don't vote in US elections?

Not only is it perfectly logical and doable, it's been done before.

What? You've never heard of Operation Wetback? Why does that not surprise me? Google it.

How Eisenhower solved illegal border crossings from Mexico

These people entered the country ILLEGALLY. They broke the law. They aren't American citizens and yet some people believe they should be entitled to the same benefits and services YOUR TAX DOLLARS are paying for? That is beyond insane. What then is the meaning of US citizenship?

Throw the bums out! ##)

The federal government is so dysfunctional from taking on so many functions it was never intended to perform and which it does not perform well, that it can't even control its own borders and track who is entering the country?

"Obstructionist radicals", my ass!

McCarthy never had the votes to become the next Speaker. He was Boehner's right hand man. Allowing him to slide into his seat would have made no sense whatsoever. As luck would have it, McCarthy's foot in mouth disease just made it that much easier to defeat him. The guy is from CA...big time RINO. Not sure why you are cheering since you probably would have loved him!

How are the "little birdies" doing? Still waiting for that earth shattering information you promised the forum seeing you know so much about me.

"President Huntsman!"
"Bibi is gonna lose!"
"Kasich is electable!"

LMFAO!

Birdies are doing fine.
Never predicted Huntsman would win, unlike you and POTUS Thompson.
Never predicted Bibi is gonna Lose, unlike you and POTUS Thompson
Kasich IS electable. But you and your insane ilk are too stupid and arrogant to realize it. You're insuring POTUS Hillary with your stupidity, and then you'll foolishly complain about Peters and Pauls.

It's hardly sexual.

More of a general Feeling of Satisfaction that something so wholly unwanted (by the individual pregnant female) has been safely removed from the building and that it was her and her alone who made the decision

Sexual arousement is something you could learn more about perhaps in one of JoeC's many Sodomy-themed threads. Such discussion with me is bound to be really really boring

who said I was talking about youse?

and what's the matter for you, six months not enough time for you to decide the mother doesn't want her child? So a person that can live outside the womb can still be offed in your world, priceless.

I do love your "want" standard? Next you can argue why stop when they're born and living outside the womb like your president does. Why not 1 week or 1 month later?

Why should somebody have to keep a baby they don't want when the baby is six months old? Just kill them, it's better than having unwanted babies in this world.

But I don't want to support the libtard base anymore, why do I have too?

How come youse get to decide what wants matter?

Lol. Do tell how he went to the "dark side"? Because he was the adult in the room when the government was close to shutting down a few years ago? Because he had preliminary discussions about what an immigration reform outline would look like?

The so-called freedom caucus doesn't give a shit if we default on our debt. Are you dumb enough to believe that won't have any economic consequences?

And actually no, there's not much room for growth for the freedom caucus either. Representatives from those districts have been gerry-mandered to allow the furthered right in the primary to win.

Stop calling it "immigration reform" when it is nothing less than blanket amnesty.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"In an exclusive interview with Breitbart News, the president of the immigration control group NumbersUSA, Roy Beck, described Paul Ryan as “terrifying.”

“There’s nobody in the Republican Party who could be worse than Paul Ryan,” Beck implored. “He has spent his entire adulthood ideologically connected to the open borders crowd. Open Borders is in his ideological DNA. That’s the terrifying thing. He’s an ideologue and he spent his whole life working for ideologues. Open borders seeps out of every pore of his being. This isn’t personal, it’s just who he is."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Of course Obama endorsed Paul Ryan as Speaker. I want someone Obama would vehemently oppose like...Marsha Blackburn. Tom Delay or Allen West would certainly shake things up.

And of course blanket amnesty is a non-starter. As is "balancing the budget" off the backs of veterans and the military. Make those cuts to programs that incentivize people to vote for a living, rather than work for a living.

The so-called "safety net" liberals make sound so virtuous and reasonable should like private life insurance. If you've been paying premiums (i.e., taxes) all your life you're entitled to submit a claim and benefits until you land back on your feet.

But if you're a welfare queen who continues to make bad choices at the expense of others (taxpayers)... on what moral and rational grounds should people blindly continue to support you?

That isn't "compassion", its enabling.

Anytime Vit and Guesser tout Kasich as the only chance, you know he‘s the wrong candidate. He’s not even a Rino, he’s the closest thing to a Democrat the Republicans have to offer.

Thank God he has less then zero chance of getting the nod.

What economic consequences do you speak of?

If I remember correctly the last time Government shut down the only people who were inconvenienced were WWII vets.

Don't you love when the libtards tell us which candidate(s) are the "electable moderates" versus the ones that "too far right"? The left's characterization of "too far right" is laughable. Conservatism only seems "too far right" to them because they have veered so far left away from ideas once considered centrist. That gulf was widened by the slavish devotion to Hussein and his Marxist ideology, the point which Democrats officially abandoned the rational thought process.

Hello?!?!? Did anyone watch the last Democrat debate????

By those standards, Shillary's "we have to save capitalism from itself" would be considered "electable moderate centrist" to these socialist clowns.
