I think national politics should stay out of social issues. We talk about other world cultures yet we have so many mini cultures right here depending on what part of the country you're in.
What works for one, socially, doesn't work for all and that's where the states come into play.
I'd love to see a GOP that just stays out of social issues on the national level. Keep their focus on our dollars at work and that's it.
Taking a sharp left turn on social issues, actually does mean they are taking a left turn. For many conservatives, especially the Christian ones, a conservative stance on social issues is far more important than economic issues. If you want to call your self something other than a conservative, then you are free to do so. Republicans are desperate for votes and are now liberal on social issues, and it seems the loyalists are following suit.
The people you listed are radical right wing fascist teabaggers that are hell bent on destroying the nation.
I hope they do keep it up with their insanity, they will get their asses handed to them again in 2014
If there were more Ted Cruz's and Rand Paul's in the congress 10 years ago, we would never have gone into Iraq....no matter how much the lefties supported it.
If there were more Ted Cruz's and Rand Paul's in the congress, gay marriage would not be an issue.
If there were more Ted Cruz's and Rand Paul's in the congress, the "war on drugs" would end.
Learn the meaning of words like fascist before throwing them around.

Forget the "religious right".
The new GOP are forcing the old guard GOP toward liberty.
I didn't know that the GOP had control over limbaugh and Rove.
Limbaugh is an entertainer.
Rove is in his death throws.
Why do the dummycrats hold on to al sharpton and mike malloy?
I have no idea of what you're alluding to with this statement.
Limbaugh is the mouthpiece for the GOP.
Oh, wait, you're not a republican. Am I correct?
