re: #222 Charles
A big reason why so many wingnuts are pissed off at me is because they assumed that since I was on the ‘conservative’ side on issues like foreign policy, I was also on board with the whole social conservative agenda, including all of the extreme forms…
They made a lot of assumptions about my beliefs that were completely wrong. Now they’re raging at me because they think I “betrayed” them — when I was never on that train to begin with.
A big reason for my anger at the Republican Party is that I think their primary purpose was ‘the whole social conservative agenda’ and they deliberately strung me along to get my vote.
How did the leadership not realize that there would be a reckoning? Maybe they didn’t care because they intended to cash out.
