Like an all-pro cornerback, George Neumayr is always around the ball. His “Enlightened Bribery” is an articulate antidote to the cowardly calls for the right to compromise and moderate.

For the present and the foreseeable future, the bourgeoisie, patriots, productive sorts, and conservatives are stuck with a watery Republican Party as a political vehicle to advance their causes and way of life. Republican carping about Mitt Romney’s accusations of Democrat bribery during the most recent election again underlines that party’s cowardliness and incompetence. Of course Barack Obama bought votes with boodle. And of course Republicans can’t compete by trying to do the same.

“Our liberals can beat their liberals” is not a winning battle cry for Republicans. Either Republicans can embrace and articulate their principles to a majority of voters, or they can climb into the wagon with the  rest of the slackers and America will become a very big Belgium (on the bright side, this would put an end to our illegal immigration problem).

No worries, Larry---you'll forget all about this (as will Quin et al) when the next liberal Republican comes down the track and it's time to rally around the "electable" flag.

AmSpec and NRO screwed the pooch with the embrace of Romney and the demonization of conservatives in the primary.

Do you really think we'll all forget about it?

No, it's time for the Tea Party to rise.

Yes, this is the problem with the Conservative Establishment. Complaints yes, but as of yet no repentance for supporting a moderate Republican during the primaries.

the last thing the GOP needs to become is another Democrat Party
