Republican Frustration

I have been a Republican for seven years, or since I was 20 years old. I love my party because it is the only one of the two that makes sense, or did. I think that it is time for a third major political party develop and tackle the problems with the Democrats and the Republicans. Neither of these two parties seem to have any achievements as of late. Most Republicans are at least hawks when it comes to terrorism, their saving grace, but they submit to pressures with the Lefties who want to ensure that we can never be self-sufficient with oil production, and they entertain each conspiracy theory that the Lefties throw at them. If the majority had any true power it would bulldoze through the nonsense and exert the power that the majority should have and accomplish their goals of reducing government, and spending, passing legislation that would allow us to provide ourselves with energy and tell the Lefties (i.e. Democrats) to take a hike.

Democrat policies do not work, and other than stating the obvious of "protecting our civil liberties," which basically means demoralizing the troops, stealing religion from believers and pushing political correctness, they have accomplished nothing, yet they still have a platform.

Republicans on the other hand have freed slaves (we were considered radical back then too)...Thanks Abraham Lincoln (1st Republican president), gave women and freed slaves the right to vote and pushed for the civil rights movement forty years ago. What can the Democrats say that they have achieved? Unfortunately through their smear campaigns of forty years, they have managed to convince Americans that they are the ones who accomplished the above tasks.
