I hope everyone here is comfortable in some of the stuff they are espousing. We have always championed we are the philosophy of values and taking the emotion out of issues. We always skewer the liberals of making decisions and policies based solely on emotions and here we have post after post supporting something based solely on emotion and be damned the argument and the strength of your position.

Why does everyone need to be in the Reality TV world of wild cheering, often, over the top cheerleading. Newt can do just fine without having booing,cheering, stomping etc.

“I hope everyone here is comfortable in some of the stuff they are espousing. We have always championed we are the philosophy of values and taking the emotion out of issues.”

I disagree.

We have reached that point where the most polite civil discourse will no longer suffice.

Embracing a philosophy and a certain set of “values” can not, can never discount the power of emotions that underpin and nourish such values.

The “political Civil Cold War” that we are now in to regain control of the country is as “emotional” an issue as one could ever hope to find.

And you don’t win wars without stomping, cheering, and some booing along with it.
