Fossil, RayPray, ajm3s, you all seem like well read, thought provoking, intelligent individuals, albeit a tad argumentative and one sided in your thoughts. As a non college educated blue collar worker with a much lower IQ than any of you (i am sure), please allow me to “take this down a notch”. I will be short, sweet and to the point.
I think it is easily seen that the republican party has absolutely lost it's following by not aggressively distancing themselves away from the Tea Party members, Sarah Palins, and Fox News’s of this country, or those talking heads like Glen Beck or Rush Limbaugh and the like. I too was once a republican. Now I consider myself too intelligent to call myself a republican, especially with what I see of those calling themselves a republican now days. It would embarrass me to be associated with a party that seems to align themselves with such crazies, and yes…. They are “crazies”.. simplest word that comes to my mind. Get rid of the crazies, and maybe the Republican party can get back on track. Until they do that, or until Democrats get a spine in their governing of this country, I see only more loss for this country.
