Is this right after you attack them, threaten them, falsely accused them of being racist homophobes and call them inbred, trailer park trash because they might not agree 100% with your political stance?

Your tent is so big you guys let in all the Republicans that changed the letter at the end of their name. You've become the republican party, um congratulations?

Honey, you have me confused with someone else. I don't call names and I certainly haven't threatened anyone. They made a movie with William Devane and Sean Young called Poor White Trash not far from here; I'd never insult anyone for living in a mobile home or being poor...those people are some of my neighbors and friends. You can't lump all Democrats together, any more than we can lump all Republicans together; I've seen many rational and heartfelt posts from Republicans who deplore the state of their party. I'm old enough to remember Jacob Javits, Nelson Rockefeller and William F. Buckley, men of intellect and character, so I understand their frustration.

I believe they're called Obamicans, or RINOs. It isn't so much that they embrace liberalism as that they dislike extremism. Serious, sensible people are a welcome addition to the party of inclusiveness.
