They pander to flag, prayer, anti-abortion, anti-gay marriage, strong borders, and the American way only xenophobes (opposite of the Democrats). Yet they do absolutely nothing to advance them. There is no bigotry against gays, latinos, or lefthanded gay latinos who dislike contraception. That is against the law. If anything, they observe the law to a fault whether fair or not. There is also no real, substantive PUBLIC love for God and His commandments. That is considered a personal/private choice. Yet secularism (and materialism) is proudly proclaimed & practiced. So I don't think either major party attracts that base of us "rightwing nuts" any longer.


People like you, brother, who live and let live on the edge of anything goes anarchy (practical nihilists?) should consider supporting... (deleted joke) Abbie Hoffman/Jerry Rubin-like retreads or similar. We can call you the dirty sanchezes alternative to the "tea baggers".

First of all.....I didn't call you a Wingnut. There is a strong difference between a true Republican and those who force their beliefs on everyone else. Secondly...you don't know me. You have no idea what I stand for. As far as "no bigotry"...well...let's just say the we will agree to disagree on that.

I think Ronald Reagan was one of the worst President this country has ever had...BUT....until the Repubs get another one like him and dump the zealots...they will NOT win.

LOL@ "You don't know me"- sounded eerily like the oft used, You're not the boss of me.

Didn't mean to ruffle your feathers, Jade. Guess posting doesn't show facial empathy & smiles. You just sounded very pc about several things. It's culturally popular these days to be intolerant against Christians and be pro- gay. Not attacking you just stating fact. My point is that the Christian "fringe group" that you keep alluding to in the Republican party carry little power & are nothing more than the equivalent to the Democrat's "negro" vote. They get lots of tongue action but little of substance from their Republican betters.

And you skipped my two most important assertions: Republican party like the Democrat is full of gimmicks & 15 second sound bites which intimidate candidates into saying nothing "controversial". The Republicans stand for nothing except empty platitudes in their platform.

Although I'm more of a spiritual guy over traditional religious, I'd say me, at quite a few others. Romney and Obama were even money to me. I don't believe in Obama or his policies at all. And because to me, my vote is a personal endorsement, there is no way I was voting for a guy that would say anything to anyone to get a vote.

My politics are closer to Romney, but he's nothing more than a pandering vote whore.

At least Obama believed in his *****ed up vision.

Jobs shipped overseas to achieve lower labor and manufacturing costs will not return to the U.S. unless/until the U.S. standard of living drops enough where the wage payable here is equal to or less than the foreign wage. This has nothing to do with the deficit.

So, what you're saying is most of those jobs should return sometime in the next few years?

Or we don't have a fiat dollar worth nothing that forces people into the cheapest possible alternative.

Well, the buzz phrase over the last year has been to preserve shareholder value. If we can get rid of all of these pesky jobs here in america over to china, the value will be preserved!

Simple - the balance has shifted and the Republicans will never be the same again. The U.S. demographics have changed and the Democrats will have the upper hand from here on out because the majority like what they offer. They truly want equality across the board and they like the "share the wealth" mentality. They believe the government should be taking care of them and providing for their needs. They believe in government healthcare and they believe the borders are just fine. They don't mind debt because they believe in extending their own credit as much as possible because the government will bail them out with bankruptcy and all will be right. They believe the military is too large and that no one will bother us. After all we have ships that go under water now....... More importantly, they don't feel responsible for anything that goes wrong. They don't believe that schools should hold their kids accountable because their kids never did anything wrong. Plus, the kids know their parents will bail them out of just about anything. They believe in gay marriage and God either doesn't exist, or doesn't belong outside church.

It's a changed world and the world I was born into 50+ years ago is long gone. And, I don't see that world coming back.

Chief,
After the next generation experiences the crushing debt this generation is dumping on them, they may say "enough", and turn this thing around. Here's hoping they have more balls then we do.
