Be careful. Purpleman! Reasonable discussion is considered treasonable by some on this site.
Some Freepers have intense moral certitude in their opinions (whether informed on a particular issue or not). They attack anyone who fails their litmus tests. They hawk 3rd party candidates and obscure congressmen for POTUS because no one else meets their standards.
They honor Ronald Reagan (as I hope we all do) but have little understanding of his political wisdom. They are the ones who hope we have 50 years of Democratic Party rule so that all will finally see the wisdom of their ways. They rejoice in the “purity” of losing because it confirms their self-indulgent sense of personal and political morality. You might find their opposite numbers (cousins, maybe) on the DailyKos.
