I understand this. But the problem is that the fringe voices have been completely mainstreamed as I stated above. And right now at least, there are many “values” voters who may not share in the fundamentalist crazies viewpoints, but continue to support the politicians pandering to the crazies.

If you don’t necessarily hold a rabid viewpoint with regard to creationism, but don’t mind endorsing a candidate who does, it has the same overall effect. Until the moderates begin refusing to support politicians that pander to the 1%, their views will be mainstream.

Yea I know, it’s so mainstream that I think there is a bill running through -congress to set up a new tabernacle next to the Washington Monument so those Christians can put the Ark of the Covenant that the government is hiding back on display.

It’s getting scary, isn’t it?
