It is precisely this “big tent” in the MTGOP that will get the Democrats elected. Individuals like me and countless others who place a high value on freedom and liberty don’t want a “big tent” coombaya that smacks of leftism and “inclusion” without regard to character or principle (i.e. Kelleher), and all for the sake of votes!-rather freedom lovers demand a political party that unreservedly and unapologetically defends the principles of liberty, individual rights and capitalism, wether they be popular or not. Since the GOP has jumped into the leftist foray of subjectivism and altruism, as a party it will lose BIG TIME in November from local to Federal elections. Serves ‘em right. The hens are coming home to roost…

AMEN! I, as well as thousands like me plan to “throw away” our votes on Ron Paul. You know why? Because there isn’t a difference between Obama and McCain. Both support the current deficit spending monetary system that is eroding our economy. Both support further entanglements abroad with nations like Pakistan, Iran, Syria and perpetual warfare. Both candidates are bought and paid for by the Israel Lobby. The choice is a mirage. They are really one party. I can care less who is elected of the two war mongering, statists. Ron Paul has my vote until the end. The GOP should have chose Ron Paul when they had the chance. Now they will lose ONE MILLION VOTES NATION WIDE AVERAGING 20% PER STATE!!!

Israel is the ONLY bastion of semi-freedom in the middle east that is also an ally and friend to the US. It is not the “Israel Lobby” that is the cause of trouble in the middle east, it is, among other things, the islamists virulent hatred of western values of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is Iran and all the other islamic nations which treat their women like cattle and who kill in the name of Allah who are the real culprits. I am sick of individuals blaming Israel! BTW, two excellent examples of the USA notable jewish founding fathers are; Alexander Hamilton, who was half jewish, and Benedict Spinoza. please visit http://www.capmag.com/israel/
