"We decide our party on which has more of what we agree with overall. I have chosen Republican. There are pro-abortion Republicans, and pro-life democrats. There are gun nanny Republicans, and pro 2nd amendment democrats. There are southern democrats who are conservative, northern republicans who are liberals."

Amen. For the record I'm a pro-life, gun-toting, socialism-detesting Christian. I also happen to be a Democrat.

I'm tired of this rhetoric that says that Republicans are always conservative, and Democrats are always liberal. That's the kind of mindless jingoism that would lead us to sacrifice a Zell Miller for the sake of electing a Bob Taft or Lincoln Chafee.

Since you're similar to our forum's owner, JimRob, you are certainly welcome here. It must be tiresome for some of you to hear this stuff about Dims-in-sheeps-clothing. The old conservative wing of the Democratic party has been weakened but it's not gone. In recent years, it voted Republican. Now, Bush and the GOP squandered their claim to being conservative so you conservative Dems voted for conservative Democrats. Can't say I blame you.

Just ride herd on these new Blue Dogs so Nancy can't turn 'em into Pelosicrats.
