It would be helpful, waggie, if you would address the actual question---do you think it adds to the political process to have candidates shouted down to the point of being unable to speak, or do you think it only matters what the point of the protest is?

People have been protesting at political rallies ever as long as there's been free speech. I realize that it upsets you that it's being done to your chosen candidate, but that's the way it is.

I think there is a major difference here that many seem to be missing.

The Republican party is the pro-life party and we have to keep it that way.

If we drive the pro abortion RINO candidates out of the race others wont rush to spend millions to try again.

If just one anti-gun abortionist Republican gets the nomination the party is dead, because we would never get rid of them!

Answer the question, please.

And don’t presume that you have any clue who “my candidate” is.

Or what “upsets” me. What upsets me here is that those cheering on these counter-productive tactics refuse to even try to explain how they think these protests are, in fact, a valuable addition to the political process as it is unfolding at this point in time.

Why are you fearful of answering the question?

Are you in support of folks like Code Pink shouting down our side to the point where Coulter, Hororwitz, and others can’t even speak?

How are you different than Code Pink?
