They didn't learn in 08 and then amped it up even more than ever.
They lost again in 2012 and still haven't learned.
Look at them now, going further to the right.
Not a very smart group.
What is it that they were supposed to have learned? That illegal immigration is ok, not working but collecting welfare is ok, that killing unborn babies is ok, that we object to a traditional marriage between gays but don't oppose a civil union, that increasing our debt without decreasing spending is ok, that we can't have religious beliefs because it offends liberals and atheists, that legalizing drugs for social use is ok, that any displays of Christiany in public is objectionable? This is only the tip of the iceberg of what the left demonizes the right for.
It is the left that isn't very smart if they think their stances on the above will make our country stronger and won't decrease the morality in this country. According to the left our stances on all of the above makes us extremists.
Just more lies, exaggerations and uncivil discourse by the left right here while ignoring all the same traits of everything sucks on the right by the left. Your "suck" list if nothing but a pack of lies. Only the very extremists hold only some of those views.

Excuse me!!!! What % of GOPers are birthers?????
"Only the very extremists" LOL
Ya like 50% of them.
In short NO. Reason being is because this is not the original republican party today of time past. The R party years ago was willing to work things out with democrats. Now it seems they'll pander for just a handful of their GODS, people like Grover Norquist, The Koch Bothers and the top 1% of so called Americans. On the sidelines fanning flames are people like Rush Limbaugh, Breitbart, O'Reilly, Beck and a few more right wing whackadoodles.
Hispanics suck, Blacks suck, gays suck, liberals suck, moderates suck, women suck, atheists and Agnostics suck, Hurricane Sandy victims suck, anyone that doesn't own an automatic weapon sucks. Only older evangelical white men deserve to rule. Vote Republican!
You idiots couldn't correctly predict whether the Sun will rise in the East or West, tomorrow morning. Wingnuts and Teabaggers truly are Gods gift to the Democratic party.
This is largely what I'm talking about. It seems that the far right continues to repeatedly insult and isolate huge and varying portions of the American public as time goes on. It seems that they're just driving more and more people away all the time. For example, I've seen/heard dozens of times that they're the only "true Americans", etc. etc. Because if you don't believe exactly what they believe, then you're not a "true American" . Given that the changing demographics of our country seem to be going against them, you'd think they'd try to maybe amend or, at least, mellow some of their stances/rhetoric, but it seems that they're not. Hence, my thread.
That's because you have nothing to back that up. Most Republicans are not extemists just because the left says it is so. By the way it is spelled Republican, not Repugnican. It is very childish to spell it wrong just to hurl a childish insult.

According to who? Some biased poll? I am a Republican and have many Republican friends. None of them are birthers. What's it to you anyway? Can't anyone on the right have a difference of opinion or to question anything or they are demonized by the left?

Why are you lefties so self-absorbed with the far right? I'll tell you why because if you said anything decent about the right whether they be far right or moderate it would just kill you lefties. Demonization is all you have. Yes, minorities tend to vote Democrat but not because the right doesn't embrace them just that the right has different views on socialism. If you think a changing demographic that includes that type of mentality is good for our country then I'd like to know what you are smoking. This changing demographic includes mass illegal immigration from south of our border and a tribal mentality within their ethnic group who thinks that they should be above our immigration laws and rewarded for breaking them. Should the GOP embrace that also and give away our country's soveirngty for votes as the Democrats are doing?

What is it to me you ask? Well, I'll tell you since you asked. It shapes what I believe about that entire group. It's like this, If I meet someone who insists the world is flat that stance causes me to believe something about that person. In the case of the GOP they have so many flat earth type ideas it causes me to think they are nuts. Dangerous nuts at that!
