Crist: Everything About GOP
Was ‘Counter to My Values’

PJ Media, by Bridget Johnson

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 12/11/2012 10:23:04 AM

New Democrat Charlie Crist said last night on CNN that in his eyes the GOP “seem to get more strident and more difficult, if you will, less tolerant, less welcoming, whether it was immigration or education or voter suppression that we saw recently.” The former Florida governor left the Republican Party in 2010 to run for the Senate seat won by Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and spoke at this year’s Democratic National Convention, but just Friday announced he’s a Democrat. “Each and every one of these issues

I used to live in Florida and remember meeting Charlie Crist when he was trolling for votes one Saturday night in Palm Beach. He is a real idiot!

Just ask Arlen Spector how it worked out for him.

Crist completely mischaracterized the GOP & what they really stand for. This is a textbook example of how the left is winning the battle.
Republicans better take off the gloves and start countering the lies of these anti-American dirt-balls or their party won´t survive.

Crist has values? The fact that he has NO values makes him a perfect dumbocrat!

He is finished in Florida, unless there is massive fraud involved!

So says a LOSER and a TURNCOAT!!Hey Crist!! Remember what happened to Specter, once he turned to the dark side???

In my humble opinion, these politicians are pathetic. Once they lose an election they take whatever path leads them to the next office!!

Got it Charlie....look carefully at your values, if you can find them or do they appear and vanish at will only to be recalled when convenient and self-serving. Most everyone is for immigration...that is legal immigration not fence jumping; for having the right to vote....if you are a citizen of this country and have proof that entitles you to vote, etc. The concepts of Open Borers and everybody votes have not yet passed except in your own mind.

And before you get so high-minded with your pontificating, remember that you are now employed by ambulance chasers whose only interest is to siphon off large sums of money to fund their own lavish lifestyles. A bit of hypocrisy Charlie!!!

If you could call what he has "values", then this may be the only time he´s told the truth in his life.

The question is: Which value made you pretend to be a Republican while actually being a Democrat?

My two bits say that the Dems were only interested in him while he was a turncoat Republican. Now? Not so much. Gives them a bad name and all that.

Charlie Crist is representative of the democrat party: ugly, duplicitous, hypocritical, stupid, greedy, and a victim. Everything that repulses the responsible and competent.

There is a reason we have two major parties.

When RINOs demand a "bigger tent" they´re not talking about increasing the base. They´re talking about burying it.

Claiming to be republican is merely a flag of convenience for many politicians for whom getting and staying elected is their actual goal.

We probably all know some examples...

I guess I should not be amazed that we continually see politicians, both Democrat and Republican, who can´t/won´t recognize that their time is up. Go away, Crist. GO AWAY.

When I heard a ´prominent´ Republican was leaving the party, a bunch of people came to mind, but none of them were people I respect.

Crist is not a loss for our side. Glad he has quit pretending to be a Republican.

I wonder what all the republicans who covered for Charlie every time someone would point out his RINO-ness factor, would say now. You know those same people are still in the republican party, now covering for other RINOs, don´t you?

It´s what they do.

He wasn´t a conservative when he was a Republican.

And to think the GOP establishment wanted him on the top of the ticket. That is where they need to start the autopsy.

Occasionally in life, a man becomes a real, genuine loser. Crist is just such a man.

This is all about one thing and only one thing, campaign contributions that he can live off of. He knew the Republican coffers had dried up for him so he headed for the democrat trough.

Please note, the following is a personal opinion.I have been a Florida citizen all of my life. It is possible Crist has been the less effective governor in the Florida state. I can´t remember him being a governor outspoken to help the Florida citizens. My opinion is that he is signing up as a Democrat and that is that he would kiss Obama´s butt (like the liberals media does), like any weakly politician does to want President Obama to give him a government "position", and it is possible that if Romney had been elected POTUS, Crist might be talking about how nice the Republican party is, just like any politician may do.


Reply 36 - Posted by: fritzilou, 12/11/2012 6:06:28 PM     (No. 9060348)

I am a lifelong Floridian. I didn´t trust Crist when he was a Republican and I won´t trust him when he is a Democrat. He is the ultimate opportunist.

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday it is “morally outrageous” to ban abortions after five months of pregnancy. “It is morally outrageous, frankly,” Nadler said about the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (H.R. 1797), a bill that would ban abortions 20 weeks post-fertilization, or five months into pregnancy. “Here we go again,” he said. “Every single year we have to go through the same nonsense with the same morally presumptuous, morally arrogant attitude that we know better. ‘We know better than women and their doctors. We know better about their health care.

Bill Ayers believes President Obama gets a “failing grade” for his presidency, and should be tried for “war crimes,” along with all living presidents who have engaged in acts of “terrorism” abroad. Sitting down for an episode of RealClearPolitics’ “Morning Commute,” Ayers told host Charlie Stone that, on policy, Obama receives a “failing grade” along with the “F-minuses” he’s given previous presidents like George W. Bush and Richard Nixon. “I don’t think he’s let anybody down,” Ayers added, pointing to how during the 2008 presidential campaign then-Senator Obama consistently declared himself to be a “middle-of-the-road, pragmatic politician.”

National Security Agency Director Gen. Keith Alexander told the House Intelligence Committee on Tuesday that the NSA whistleblower that leaked classified information on the agency’s surveillance program caused “irreversible and significant damage” to the nation and helped America’s enemies. “I think it was irreversible and significant damage to this nation,” Alexander said Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) asked how damaging it was “to the national security of the American people that this trust was violated.” “Has this helped America’s enemies?” Bachmann asked Alexander. “I believe it has, and I believe it will hurt us and our allies,”

John Boehner (R-Ohio) said he might lose his job as House speaker over immigration reform, but he insisted he will not bring a bill to the House floor that does not have majority support of both Republicans and Democrats. Following the Republican conference meeting on Tuesday, Boehner was asked: “Rep. Rohrabacher said that if you bring immigration reform to the floor without the support of the GOP conference you will lose your job (as speaker). Do you think that’s accurate?” “Maybe,” Boehner said after a long pause, to laughter from reporters.

In line with Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel’s order for troops to have their workplaces searched for “degrading or offensive” materials -- part of an attempt to curb sexual assault in the military -- the Navy will inspect even its bathrooms. While what’s degrading or offensive is open to interpretation, the material can include song lyrics and “inappropriate cartoons.” In a memo sent on June 13, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus ordered that all sailors, Marines, cadets and civilian employees have their workplaces searched by June 28.

Edward Snowden Is In The

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded.

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Jeb Bush says he’s not worried that his work toward comprehensive immigration reform and his ties to the GOP establishment will alienate conservatives and negatively impact a potential 2016 presidential campaign, referring to critics as “the chirpers.” “If I decide to run for office again, it will be based on what I believe, and it will be based on my record,” the former Florida governor said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network’s David Brody. “And that record was one of solving problems completely from a conservative prospective.” Bush (R) pointed to his conservative

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:

Iran is preparing to send 4,000 troops in to Syria to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of America´s announcement it will be providing ´military aid´ to the country´s Muslim rebels. President Barack Obama made the pledge earlier this week after the U.S. claimed it found ´conclusive evidence´ Assad´s regime has used chemical weapons against the rebel forces--which includes the most extreme Sunni Islamists--and has called for Britain and France to back the move. While Britain hasn´t made a guarantee either way as yet, more than 350 Royal Marines are being sent to Jordan
