re: #179 robdouth

What does that mean? My reasoning is why? The idiots who hijacked the party is why? Are you saying there is no difference between conservatism as an ideology and the right-wing as it exists today?

You need to separate yourself from the idiots in order not to be mistaken for one. When (or if) I go to the next local Republican Party meeting, I expect to be mistaken for a tea partier if I am seen by my sane friends. I’m not one, but if I go to that meeting, I will be seen meeting with some of them.
