I cannot understand how unrealistic many social conservatives have become in terms of enforcing their version of ideological purity on their fellow Republicans.
***I don’t see that happening.
I like how COgamer expressed this, so I’m stealing it once again from him.
Some people on this board are PUSHING it. They not only expect us to grin and tolerate it, they expect us to help!! They see conservatives being marginalized, and then bash conservatives for not supporting the politicians who are marginalizing them. It’s insane!
But conservatives are expected to vote for anyone who has an R after their name, no matter how dangerous to the movement, just to avoid the ire of a bunch of wishy-washy phonies whose only brush with conservatism is the fact that they post to this website.
Oh, come on. Every group has people like that, not just socons. Remember the Rudy worshippers? Have you checked the Ron Paulites lately? Everyone is trying to 'talk up' their view. (Some are more civil about it than others, of course.)
