Jeremy’s an atheist, so obviously he’s a dirty liberal, right BigT?
Does he support 3rd-term, or post-birth abortion, like Obama and you???
Does he not care about struggling familes that have grown esponentially under Obama???
Does he look away when a member of the Gay community, like Jerry Sandusky molests little boys in his care???
Does he bash Christians w/ hateful vitriole because they don’;t give in to liberal scaraments of filth???…like you???
Tell me again how conservatives like Romney care about struggling families. By supporting tax breaks for large corporations – especially those who stash their money in the Cayman Islands – that struggling families are employed by? Refusing to support a minimum wage or health insurance for the working poor? Sending American jobs oversees and laying off workers? Fighting all attempts by the Obama administration to change this state of affairs through legislation to protect their own private interests at the expense of the struggling families who work for them (or used to before they got laid off)? Yep, that’s caring about struggling families, alright.
Just look at Bush’s ROBUST economy and then look at the Miserable disaster of Obama’s economy…(and quit lying to yourselves, too)…
Conservatives want EVERYONE to prosper. They don’t HATE Earners so much that they D@*n everybody to their misery (except themselves, the elites) just to punish their fellow Americans who don’t think @$$-backwards, like them…
So, tell us again how cons want to raise the minimum wage?

CPAC needs to take advice from a “libertarian and self-described “athiest science fiction writer” about as much as The GOP needs Mark Sanford to get elected to any office in this state….
This guy cares about Conservatives succeeeding as much as FITS does….
“athiest science fiction writer”
an oxymoron in and of itself.
Do you have a job BigT

Jeremy, unlike the majority of conservatives, you are actually capable of rational, independent thinking.
But the sooner you realize (as I did years ago, in my ‘conservative’ days), that you are aligned with stark raving lunatics, the better off you will be.
As soon as Big T posts something, I will rest my case.
He claims to be a LIBERTARIAN, you F*^@in Idiot….not a Conservative…
Libertarians are not Stupid enough to call themselves liberals…and too Coward to stand up and be a Conservative…
PS: Look at the BEEEPING country…We NEED Conservatives…not Moderate libertarians or the liberals who are ruining the economy…
Well, that was fast, huh, vic?
I think T had that already written and was waiting for a post to respond to.
Lol!

Yeah Jeremy, whatever…. let’s see, if we do it your way, 75% of the conservatives in the country will walk way from the GOP to gain what?… those 25% who call themselves “conservative”. Uh, OK. And, while you speak of the culture wars as being over, there is absolutely no guarantee that they really are. What if in fact we are just living in the golden age of hedonism, tolerance, and perversion?

“Put politics aside and act for the greater good,” you say? I didn’t think conservatives were into that sort of thing. I thought it was, “Let the free market decide.”
Actually, most conservatives aren’t for free markets, or small gov’t. They just say that. In fairness to them, 50% of self identified Libertarians aren’t either when you start asking them tough questions.

Liberals = Sink all boats just to punish the Americans we HATE…You’ll get to do (and pay for) what WE tell you you can do and pay for…and jail you otherwise…
Conservatives = A rising tide raises all boats….Prosperity and freedom for all…
Libertarian = We like prosperity brought by Conservatives. We’re just too Gutless to have any core values or stand up for what is right. The media may label us as non-dope-smoking cool…So we result in liberals ruining the country…(and we end up losing our rights anyway)….

I love you conservatives attacking Jeremy. He puts forth a decent start to actually winning national elections again and you keep parroting that the problem is Romney and McCain just weren’t conservative enough. That you believe there are untapped votes farther to the right in a country that is growing more and more moderate is hilarious.
The country isn’t growing more moderate. It has been relatively moderate since at least the 70s. People who get more involved in the political process, and “educate” themselves on issues, tend to be more polarized. They are the ones who get the press, because they are the ones who want the press, but they don’t represent the majority. Thus, the misconception that we are more polarized than we really are.
But there has been little true movement on the overall political views, as it relates to conservative/liberal/moderate, of Americans in decades.

Portman Inspires Other Republicans to Stop Speaking to Their Children
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) — The decision of Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) to support same-sex marriage after learning that his son was gay has inspired hundreds of other
Republican lawmakers to stop speaking to their children immediately, G.O.P. leaders confirmed today.
“I have gathered my caucus and told them, if your kids are going to tell you something that’s going to cost you the next election, it’s better to nip that situation in the bud,” said House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio). “Just stop talking to them altogether, for heaven’s
sakes.”
Speaker Boehner said he was advising his fellow Republicans who were “hell bent on speaking to their children” to keep things superficial: “You can talk about sports. You can talk about the weather. But anything beyond that, your policy should be, ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell.’”
But even as Mr. Boehner laid down the new guidelines for not speaking to one’s children, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Virginia) said that the policy “doesn’t go far enough.”
“What if you’re having a conversation with your kids and it turns out they’re in favor of raising the capital-gains tax or banning assault rifles?” he said. “Do what I do — block their calls.”
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) agreed with his fellow G.O.P. leaders’ words of caution, adding, “Fortunately, none of my children want to talk to me.”
