In the world of conservative politics, there has been no development more frustrating than the emergence of a new hybrid politician called “The Republicrat.”

The Republicrat is a middle of the road, poll driven, media creation that labels himself a Republican in the hope of attracting the conservative vote, but embraces many liberal concepts so as to appease his “friends” on the left.

In many ways, the Republicrat is much more sinister than his liberal colleague. The liberal at least has the conviction of his beliefs and rarely attempts to disguise his true socialist motives. On the other hand, the Republicrat is often deliberately deceitful, recognizing that if they can pull a slight of hand that persuades voters they are conservative while still fulfilling their commitment to large, pork-ridden government, they will experience support from both sides.

The Republicrat is an expert at smoke and mirrors government, claiming for example to be fiscally conservative yet spending every dime from the social security trust fund and running up huge deficits.

We will discuss and expose some of the most notorious Republicrats and their records right here.
