I've voted Republican for the 15 years I've been voting. I am absolutely disgusted by how far right the Bush administration has moved, to the point of removing the freedoms they so vehemently they attempt to protect. I will not be voting for Hilary and can only hope a moderate Republican is nominated. Gonzolez has got to go and my decision will be largely based on that. As sad as that is.

Voting for a moderate Republican will do little good. The strongest arm of the Republican party are social conservatives. Every Republican sooner or later has to appease and placate them.
Remember, Bill Frist himself, is a moderate Republican. The reason UIGEA has come to us the way it did is because Frist was trying to suck up to social conservatives.

I'm still trying to find something (other than the book they read) that distinguishes US religious fundamentalists from Iraqi religous fundamentalists.

Can some one help me out?

US religous fundamentalists haven't been cutting peoples heads off with dull knives as far as I know...

Anyone who watched the GOP push the federal marriage amendment in 2004 and try to intervene in the Terry Schiavo incident, should have known the score then, and if you voted GOP in 2004, well, hey, you can't really say it's out of character.

this is the reason i voted for the GOP and for BUSH in 2004, because they are so strongly prolife, and against gay marriage, and i wish theyd quit wasting time keeping me from playing low stakes cards at home, and get back to the topics of much bigger impotance to conservatives. pushing people into casinos where the cheapest NL game is $100 buyin instead of $1 buyin sure dont help the guy whose got very little to gamble with and for whom gambling might become a problem, all is does is make his life worse. pushing people into casinos causes they to bet way over their bankrolls unlike online. i think its agreed to play 2-4 u need about a $1200-2000 bankroll, and about 95% of normal people (not 2+2 members but normal folks) dont have that much to gamble with. however they do have the $100-200 bankroll necessary to play 50c-1 limit at home.

So as long as the federal government oversteps its bounds with other peoples lives and rights(not to mention states rights), you are all for it. But when it affects your own, you are against it.

Maybe, but notice the lack of punctuation. Also check out some of his other posts.

True, though they still seem mostly philisophically very similar.

I was raised in a Puritan church. England wouldn't let us enforce our sharia there, so we came here. This is our time; it is foolish to resist!

Okay, I lied. We Puritans no longer wear funny clothes, and we've become Jesus freaks. It's the fake "Christians" you need to worry about - the ones who reject the New Testament in favor of the old. The ones who reject democracy in favor of their sharia.
