Maggie's Farm

A case study in Trump Derangement Syndrome. There is something seriously wrong with your cognitive abilities, your respect for liberty and self rule, if you think the democrats are the answer. Insane!

Wrong in both paragraphs. Conservative republicans have always and still are in favor of free and FAIR trade. The so called moderate republicans, the ones that have for years sold us conservatives down the river with their "can't we all just get along" mantra are the allies of the left. The moderates have 'compromised' our values and principles to the point that there is not much difference between a republican and democrat. True conservatives are still against massive government. Massive spending.

Moderate republicans are part of the problem. Republican In Name Only - RINO. RINO's have been failing for years. It has been RINO's that have failed time and again to keep lefty Marxists out of the judiciary. The compromises have always moved the country further left. The left rarely if ever compromises. It was a RINO that coined the term, voodoo economics. It was a RINO republican that coined the term Kinder, Gentler conservativism. It was the RINO’s in the party that put up the hapless Bob Dole. It was a RINO that ran on compassionate conservatism; further watering down the principles of conservatism. It was a RINO, who suspended his campaign, at a key moment, thus handing the White House to a far-left Marxist. It was that same RINO, helping the left, who set the IRS on the true conservatives of the party, the Tea Party. A ten-volume set could be written on the compromising RINO’s, and how they have been battling conservatism for the past three-quarters century.

Will can spare me his drivel about Republican values. These RINO’s need to be primaried. They need to be driven out of the party. We have tried to get along. The left needs to be defeated, run out of the country. It is the left’s ‘values’, that have been found lacking. It is the left’s values that the moderate republican seems to hold in higher regard than that of traditional conservatism.

And which long standing institutions are you speaking? All the three letter acronym bureaucracies, created in the last 75 years? Really? You expect conservatism to conserve the corrupting pills of socialism? Okay, George Will. My mistake.

I want to conserve the norms of a free man, not some quasi slave to the state. A captive to the mob of public opinion. One who must constantly look over his shoulder, checking with the News Speak dictionary for everything he must think and feel. I hope Trump is the man that finally, "...stands athwart history and yells, Stop!" A man that destroys the long held institutions and mores of the left. Brings some sense and pull back to the institutions of a free republic.
