You're right. Imagine the democrats as divided as the GOP. Imagine if we had a large group of radical left wingers.
Ummmmmmmmmmmmm your party is......and your party does.
I don't see that. But obviously you do. You are conservative or libertarian, right? Or something close.
We dems are known as the bleeding-heart liberals-supposedly ALL radically pro-abortion (not all are), radically anti-gun (not all of us), anti-Christianity (wrong again), anti-business (not entirely), pro-tax (no).
Cons come across as having an unhealthy obsession with our personal lives-what we do with our bodies, whom we sleep with, forcing religion and your concept of morality on the rest of the country and world, yelling, screaming, suing, bombing or shooting anyone who disagrees with you or again, your concept of morality.
Now, is all of this true, or is it an unfair stereotype-like the one constantly attached to moderates or liberals?
Our fringe and extremists are people like Michael Moore, Al Sharpton, etc... And though some of may agree with SOME of their beliefs, most of us don't agree with all of them.
I keep hearing: "I want my country back." Where did it go? What is it that you want? What more are you willing to give up than what you gave up the last 8 years? We gave up a lot of freedom for the sake of being "safe". Did it keep us safe?
I personally did not want to support a party based on so many of the principles of "The Project for the New American Century", that " American leadership is good both for America and for the world...". I don't agree with that.
Seriously, besides the deficit issue...the deficit that has been growing for 9 years... and the spending, what are you concerned about? We would like to know, because this talk of state secession has many of us concerned. If my state secedes, I will go with my country. I would have done the same under Bush. Country first? Remember that?
