re: #65 Shiplord Kirel

Is the Republican Party starting to recover? Probably too much to hope for but Boehner’s “purge” and Rubio’s admission that the Earth is billions of years old are certainly hopeful signs. No, these guys have not changed their beliefs, if any. Rubio may be a lot of things, but he is not an idiot. He is an educated man and there is no chance he ever took the creationist claptrap seriously.

I think they are just tired of sucking up to nutcases and it has finally dawned on them that they don’t have to do it.

No, the “purge” wasn’t the loons being thrown out, just marginalized. And Caribou Barbie’s already promising revenge come ‘14. No, the GOP knows they can’t get rid of the loonies, as they’re the party base now. Rubio was saying that the Earth’s billions of years old in the same interview where “faith teaches us” that homosexuality is a sin.
