....that you at first thought The Rainbow Coalition was the paint dealers booth at the Home Improvement Trade Show....
My mother was a MENSA and a life long demonRAT, in fact, was a county poo-bah.
If you sat her down with a pencil and paper and axed her the series that you outlined in your vanity, she was 99.97% conservative, BUT, she voted 100% demonRAT.
No logic, no reason, just good old fashioned religion, Jesus Christ, FDR, Harry Truman and JFK {and in her book, Jesus was fourth}.
Again, no logic, no reason, just emotion and she voted demonRAT for two elections after she died.
It took me four years to get her name removed from the voter rolls.
You think that since minorities are disproportionally represented in the American prison population, that the Police and Justice Systems are racist, but the reason why a lot more men are in prison than women is because men commit most of the crimes.
If after 10 years on FreeRepublic, Jim hasn't run your ass off!
I am silly this way, but I believe that if you do not pay taxes, you should not have the right to vote.
I believe if you take another life, ole Sparky should be fired up.
I must be silly too....
I know when to behave myself :)

You understand that the Constitution was written expressly to limit the government and anything that removes those limits or seeks to, is, on it's face, unconstitutional.
GOOD ONE

OK, I just got off the lesbian/gay post so I'm confused. Hell I've now got to...never mind...
That reminds me of when a black man accused me of being racist when I yelled at him to stop approaching me (quickly from behind a fence while I was alone). I told him I wasn’t racist, but that I was sexist.
When faced with people who think they are Democrats but really NOT lib crazies, I use Rush’s technique - illustrate absurdity by being absurd.
For instance, when a family member says, I can’t imagine the evil republicans ever winning again, the correct answer is - “You’re right - Open those borders! Everyone should vote! That’s what Obama does! Love the man!” Then watch the doubletake.
Or when they say, We should all have free health care, the correct answer is (If you have medicare!) “I Do - thank you so much! Do you know your taxes paid for my bills last year? Thanks so much! Thanks for picking it all up - I could never have afforded all those thousands of dollars on my own!”
