re: #263 TheMatrix31

Moving to the center hasn’t worked. Sadly. the kook faction gets a lot of air play right now for a deliberate reason - “look! All republicans are as freaky as this! Runaway, I tells you!” But we know we aren’t, in fact I’d suggest the majority aren’t. The problem is, the Republican party is so concerned with being labeled exclusionary they are embracing every freak faction that will call themselves on the “right”. Instead of proving we really are not the party of racists, we are playing right into this false stereotype.

It isn’t rocket science, really. We embrace freedom of thought and religion, but never to the determent of OTHER people’s freedoms. I hate to sound like a scratched cd, but Ronald Reagan wrote the play book on this one. Agree to disagree and WALK THE F AWAY. Deal with more pressing issues, such as fiscal problems and preserving the Constitution.
