re: #193 jbolty

hey jbolty, if you felt I painted with a broad brush, that was not my intent and my apologies for not being more clear.

but I don’t think everyone in the Republican party supports intolerance, xenophobia, racism, hatred, bigotry, and Theocracy. My fear is that the number of people who do, is larger than we realized. Using the polls about obama’s birth certificate, the support for theocratic candidates, the rampant aversion to homosexuality, and the willingness to stoop to out right racism during the illegal immigration fight.

I’m ok and grateful for people who are Religious, I am not grateful for anyone who wishes to make me live by their religion.

I’m grateful for the debate on illegal immigration, I am not grateful when I get hit by a beer can and told to go back to mexico when I’m out running.

I could go on, but you get my point. Disagreeing is wonderful, and I’ll fight for your right to disagree with me, but I fear that the sentiment isn’t reciprocated by the far right.
