Thank you for your well though out, non-emotional post.
Was that a snotty reply or a compliment? Cue me in Stainmaster, LOL.
This was a sincere compliment. When I sit down with my other set of grandparents, they are Reagan conservatives, and have rational thoughts to support their political preference.
As you can see from two of the posts above, the flavor of this thread is being attacked by a fellow who falsly points to civil rights leaders as bigots. When challenged to back his remarks, a made-up link appeared, and then disappeared just as fast.
This Tea Bagger/Partier stuff does nothing, but muddy up the water. I am going to ignore it, and hope that more people like yourself will point out that all conservative Republicans are not raving, racist, Tea Baggers. I think conservatives still have something to offer, but your message is being lost due to these spoilers/Tea Baggers. I had and do hope this thread will offer more rational thought.
