Liberal states and Conservatives states can live side by side peacefully,Really? What do you suppose will happen when the Socialists states run out of money to feed the hordes that the free stuff attracts?
The Civil War was not just about slavery.

I have yet to see the goal posts moved to the right in any definable measure in the past 30 years.
The GOP should be an anchor in the right. Instead they've chosen to be a sail or worse, cowering dogs slinking along behind the democrats hoping for the occasional crumb.

Moderate muslims say nothing when they bow down to the capital of the Islamic empire and it’s death penalty for any non-muslims who’d date enter their segregated city. They say nothing when the religious texts of all other faiths are seized by the theocratic government the bow down to five times a day every day.
Such is “moderation”.

You got to love those “moderates” who coddle with Democrate Marxist terrorists and islamofascists... in the name of “tolerance” and “moderation”....
Like when McCain tried to make LaRaza kid minions of his, pedophile style.

I’d say the definition of moderate has been moved to the left. The American System is federalism. We don’t have a parliament or an imperial presidency in the American System.
We have a very narrowly focused federal government, not a national one. Within its proper Constitutional bounds the federal government is a fraction of its current size and states compete. Corruption is minimized and localized because there isn’t a fat purse to filch or massive programs to leech off of.
The troubles begin and end with the “Progressives”.

Cokie Roberts??? I didn’t even check the author. She’s a liberal and a liar, but I repeat myself.

Remember, this is written by a pair of lifelong leftwing operatives. "Moderate" doesn't mean to them what it means to you or me or the dictionary.

The troubles begin and end with the Progressives. succinct and it has the ring of truth to it. May I adopt this as my tag line? I'll credit you.

The definition of moderate is a little skewed as of late, with John Kennedy being an ultra conservative by todays standards. The middle is so for to the left it eliminates the right.

Well, Cokie and Stevie, the obvious answer is to get rid of all the Democrats running for office this year so that the country can recover from the corrupt, immoral Leftist policies that are ruining the nation.

Thanks Maelstorm.
Former Republican Rep. Tom Davis told The Hill newspaper: "The middle is getting squeezed," ...Activists in both parties have declared war on moderates. The ideological gap between the two parties is widening rapidly.

That kind of depends on how you define "moderation".
You can be fervent in your beliefs and yet moderate in the way you express them.
