They should stick to their core principals such as, that women should be forced to give birth to rapist's babies, because they are a gift from god.

Easily one of the worst ever things the Tea Partiers have said - its shockingly bad, especially coming from a first world country politician.

I hate to burst your bubble but, the dems don't fare to well either with in 1 pol, CBS/NY Times, l they have a 30% approval and a 60% disapproval.

Here is a list of many polls and the only ones where the dems have higher approval is from very left sites.

Congress: Democrats

Easy now - the same poll for Republicans shows they have an approval rating of only 19%.

Congress: Republicans

There is no escape - no matter what poll, the GOP is losing.

When the US can't borrow another dime from China, Democrats will have no more borrowed money with which to buy votes, and then we will all have the same conservative political ideology.

Have you read the bible? here are 2 things it says
1. Thou shalt not kill
2. marriage = 1 man + 1 woman

there is no other way to interpret it.
Who gives a rusty rat's behind what some ancient collection of books written thousands of years ago by some desert tribesmen and goat-herders has to say about anything?

Having your political philosophy or attempted legislations driven by your religion is absolutely antithetical to what conservativism actually is.

That's the trouble with neo-cons when they try to sit at the adult table. They don't know what conservativism is. They don't know what liberalism is. And they certainly don't know what communism, fascism or socialism are.

I guess that means liberals are trying to bankrupt the firearm industry by requiring ID to purchase guns.


Is there any reason for opposing voter ID laws than facilitating voter fraud?

Wrong, the Bible in numerous places shows that God determines life and death, and controls the days one has to live.

You need to read the ten commandments. It doesn't say thou shalt not murder it says thou shalt not kill in the King James version of the Bible.
The King James broadened it to kill, which is not an accurate translation of the original Hebrew. Stop clinging to a corrupt English translation. The Bible was not written in English.

Democrats are much bigger Gerrymanders Nadlers district (includes Greenwich Village) has the most McCain area in the country in it. (don't have the ED by ED results for Romney yet)
