Republicans need to embrace America’s conservative roots which made her great in the first place

Here’s a question for ya. Why do REPUBLICANS need to embrace conservatism? Why do I say that? Shouldn’t DEMOCRATS also embrace conservatism? Shouldn’t Martians, tall people, and people who love horses also embrace conservatism (that’s for you, C)?

In point of fact, yes. EVERYBODY should embrace conservatism. But we are Republicans, and operating the political machinery of the nation to benefit the nation is our business. We’re smart, realistic, handsome (or beautiful), we shop at Home Depot, and we love America better than we love political power. The Dems can say those things too, but they are lying when they do so. So let’s start with us, and we’ll get to the others as time allows.

Follow me to school...

We aren't really fans of the tin foil crowd around here. I'll leave what he has up for purely comedic purposes. Some of the crazy junk that gets spewed by this crowd makes you double over.

I have some questions for you good folks here on the Minority Report:

Howdy folks! Well, a big h/t to our good buddy simpson316 for expertly cleaning-up poor jmk1502 - been a while since we had a moonbat with Ronulan trendings around here. Alas, he actually had a couple of valid and serious points packed in with rantings about The Real Reasons For The Iraq War and, of course, The Jooooooooooooooos! Oh well - let's hope he manages to secure a spot in "Debating 101" next semester and can return better armed to discuss the topics of the day.

Let us have an open thread - featuring this video from a not-at-all-hard-to-look-at-young-lady who, well, has obviously had her young little heart shredded a couple of times...

Shocking!!! The Clinton's didn't deliver on a promise? Get out of town!

Good thing this guy isn't a conservative talk radio host or this story would be huge!
