Homosexual teachers and clubs in the schools plying their lifestyle, Gay Pride Parades in the streets doing things we would be arrested for, more are more of the gender confused. Drive by shootings, everything on TV (including commercials) filled with sex or sexual innuendo. STDs were once cleared up with a shot now we have a whole host of STDs that are life-long or a death sentence. The normal attacked, the abnormal celebrated. Things like respect, dignity, decency, loyalty and common sense are scoffed at. All out war on people that are Christians. Abortion clinics every where operated like a drive through burger joint. People that have LIFE believe innocent babies should get death by abortion. Anti-American speech, some on foreign soil. Unbelievable incidents in the schools like flying a foreign flag, stomping on the American flag, pamphlet like “The Little Black Book, Qu**R in The 21st Century” handed out, “Fistgate” and the “Cuddle Puddle”. No mention of God in the schools but Muslims are given a prayer room.
It’s not Republican conservatives that are behind all those things but liberal Democrats. I am now a Republican that will never vote for a RHINO.

First of all, since the country has been run by Republicans for 18 years of the last 26, I don't see how you can charge that Democrats are the root of all the evil you see around you. The math just doesn't seem to work on that. Help me, please...
Did you have some other life changing event 7 years ago when this happened? For instance, get married, have children, etc? I'm just interested in what could make a life long Democrat change overnight. Many of the issues you have put forward are not new to the American lexicon...
For instance - GAYS: The "gay movement" in the 90's and 00's has far less to do with free sex than it does with creating families and settling down and raising children. Conservatives seem to think that marriage and procreation is the be all end all of humanity and gays in our country are in relationships spanning decades without equal protection under the law. They are conforming to your ideal, but aren't being let into the club.
What Homosexual clubs in schools? Do you mean the Gay/Straight Alliance? The organization that was set up in response to an enormously high teen suicide rate among gay kids because of the way they are treated in this society by people who hate?
I've seen a few of your posts and you tend to focus on homosexuals in school and you seem very concerned that they will either prey on your children or turn your children or otherwise negatively (??) influence your children with their gayness. I'm wondering what stories of a homosexual teacher preying on students you've heard in the last few years? See, I think I seem to remember several stories of heterosexual teachers preying on students (mostly women) in the past few years...
Drive by shootings and sexual innuendo on TV seems to fall more under the umbrella of "what have your conservative representatives done for you lately?". Exactly where do you find Democrats advocating drive by shootings and foul language on TV? I seem to remember, in the 8 years Dems had the white house, Clinton put 100,000 cops on the street and crime dropped dramatically. Also, Tipper Gore, although she received a lot of flack from ALL corners for it, advocated rating restrictions on music and television to give parents a better idea of what kind of content their children would be exposed to.
I wonder if you have any statistics that bear out that STDs are the result of a Democratic agenda.
How is "normal" attacked? In what ways do you feel you are threatened as being normal?
Abortion? You got that one nailed, ha? We just want to KILL ALL THE BABIES - right? Seriously? Is it that simple for you? There are no other issues like the life of the mother, rape, incest, inability to actually raise a child either financially or emotionally? Nope, we are just a bunch of baby killers. Really? I have a personal connection to this one. I decided to keep my daughter 19 years ago. At the aboriton clinic they took the time to counsel me on all my options and never once made me feel pressured to either have the baby or have an abortion. My daughter was the best choice I ever made. I could not have an abortion, but I've been in a position where I certainly thought it was my only option... until I went to a clinic where they showed me I had many paths. I would never presume to know what a woman/girl is going through in that situation because every life experience is different and so I could never take that choice away from someone else. But again, abortion has been around as long as you've been alive - it didn't start 7 years ago and there are FAR fewer clinics now than there were only 10 years ago so that doesn't quite work out either.
Exactly what do you call "anti-American" speech? I sure thought we were allowed and expected to question our leaders. If we didn't we'd be living in a dictatorship, right? Isn't Freedom the 2nd or 3rd reason they gave for invading Iraq? After they didn't find WMDs? So, we want the Iraqi people to have freedom, but an American citizen can't say their country is on the wrong path??????
