re: #58 Spare O’Lake

Reworked it a bit for ya:

Moderate Republicans can no longer afford to remain largely silent and passive in the face of the radical Teabaggers. Without further delay, they must stand up and be counted, by organizing and unequivocally rejecting the sick and twisted version of Conservatism being peddled by the extremists in America and around the world. The moderates’ failure to do so en masse has allowed the extremists to hijack the agenda and to largely succeed in their nefarious objective of fostering an atmosphere of intolerance and divisiveness.
Many moderates have been working hard to point out the problems with Conservatism, but their pleas for reform have so far not gained the necessary traction in their own community. Instead, the vast majority of moderate Republicans have failed miserably to actively engage in a public fashion to reject Tea Party extremism, which is precisely what is desperately needed to more effectively combat the current and growing atmosphere of bigotry.
Cast out the extremists!
