And then tell me what were the principles that Reagan spoke of?

Go ahead! Continue and extend the thought with Reagan's words.

I was trying to get you to validate your position that anyone not sharing your views should be "Bug Zapped" from the forum.

I've been through several of these purges and the last one really sickened me. I wanted you to justify with Reagan's words why that purge was necessary, and I knew that you could not.

As you can see, I lit up when you mentioned the Bug zapper. It's a day, week, month, that I wish had not occurred, but it did.

In my view, it was a series of things like that purge against social moderates, that have combined to set the tone for this election.

I warned about it then, and way before then, as that was the end of the Reagan coalition.

Now we have this interesting but totally irrelevant election where we will get our collective clocks cleaned by the Dem machine, and I just wanted you to justify it with Reagan's words.

But I knew you could not, because he never said that the way to victory was to destroy the coalition. To plant yourself on the high perch and declare that only through my somewhat limited view is victory assured and if you don't agree,,,,, leave..

That's all I have to say.
