What happened to moderates? I'm a moderate or I guess independent in todays lingo. When will we start to matter more to the republican party than pandering to the extreme right wing? |
agreed |
Islamic Extremists flew planes into the world trade center and pentagon killing thousands of people.
Right wing conservatives hold political beliefs with which you do not agree. You find them equally scary...really? |
I was not one of the PPs, but I'm curious to know where you got the idea that they find all extremists equally scary. One does not have to equate the likes of Rush Limabaugh and Michele Bachmann to Osama bin Laden to feel that their influence has damaged the Republican Party, and American politics in general. |
Oh please! |
I got the idea from the title of the post that said "as scary as". |
And those Tea Party types are the scariest of them all. One of them shot all of those young people in that move theater (just ask ABC News...) |
Bachman's use of words are flames to a fire:

Well one definitely shot Congresswoman Giffords. |
Was Timothy McVeigh an earlier tea-partier before a name was officially coined? |
Her name is spelled Bachmann and she is crazy.
|
Each of them got 3,000 of our population killed in the last decade. I'm not sure that statistically they are any less dangerous. |
Extremists like Bachmann are scary because of the possibility they could influence others to make the US a more frightening and oppressive place. A fair number of people lost their jobs during the McCarthy era because of their politics.
Twenty extremist Saudi nationals hell bent to kill us would never convince us to submit to sharia law. But if enough mainstream people accommodated Michelle Bachmann's twisted attempts to "protect" us, who knows what we would do to ourselves. I'm so relieved that McCain and Boehner publicly called her on the carpet. Wish that Romney had the guts to do that. (or has he done that? If so, let me know!) |
He can't afford to offend anyone. He can't afford to take any more positions. He already has two for every issue. |
Who are the 3000 that the conservatives killed? |
