ROFLMAO. You mean "conservative values" like those here whose sole contribution to political debate is calling someone names and hurling profanity and insults? Like your personal favs: slut, ****, GFY?

Yeah, you're the poster child for intelligent and good "conservative values". Maybe as expressed by Joe Wilson.

"Conservative values" ... like believing the President is a Kenyan Communist Muslim Socialist un-American anti-christ without a birth certificate?

Yeah, I want no part of being associated with that, thanks.

The GOP right now, for the past three years, is nothing like the GOP of the past 40. They are a completely disorganized embarassment of a train wreck.

Bush and Cheney, et. al, leaving 1.2 trillion in debt, two wars, a recession, bank bailouts, torture, lies about WMD, etc. tore the integrity and reputation of the Republican brand so completely that last November the GOP had to sell itself out to the complete whack jobs on the far, far right in an attempt to garner some, any, votes in the last election. And in doing so, they lost about 1/4 to 1/3 of we more moderate GOP to the other side in that voting booth.

The GOP as it sits today: voting 100% no on everything, obstructionist, anti-everything, lying (Mitch McConnell, you've really turned out to be something, and it ain't good) - currently isn't even espousing what are traditional, admired, historical Republican values. Ronald Reagan would turn over in his grave to see what the GOP is today.

Hopefully the crazy far, far right will break off and continue their third party pretensions, so the GOP has some faint hope of recapture of respect, and resurgence in the next 10 years.
