To: The South Park Republican
Sir, You said in response to me: Cute. What's next? You're going to scream "RINO"?

Response: Do I have a history here of screaming anything? Please advise.

Then you said: One-issue screaming windbags have lost a lot of credibility in my mind.

Response: Like it or not, political parties, especally republicans are full of one issue "screaming windbags" as you put it. Eliminate the "screaming windbags", then how would the republicans ever hold office?

Then say you: I'm a Broken Glass Republican. I support whomever interests me the most in the primaries and then it's straight-ticket Republican in the general...No exceptions EVER! I've always been "Agnostic" on the subject of abortion. Meaning, I trust those who I vote for to make the right decisions...Whatever those decisions might be.

Response: Great, thats nice, I think there is room in the republican party for all types, hopefully, deep down you agree.

Next, you opine But... One-Issue freaks like those on this thread have done something to me that I thought could NEVER happen...Consider calling myself "Pro-Choice". Which I am not. The main reason being I can't stand the thought of aligning myslef with ANYTHING "Liberal". It literally disgusts me. But the people on this thread have proven themselves to be as shrill as ANY "Liberal" I've ever seen.

Question: how come you are not accusing yourself of screaming?

Finally, you end: That's a sad commentary, in my opinion. Personally, I prefer the tactic of changing hearts and minds. Not killing "Abortionists" and calling women who have had abortions "Murderers".

Right on brother,we agree!

Your parting note: OK...Now call me a "Liberal" here ----->

Another question for you, Did I call you a liberal? What names have I call you? Is it OK for you to call people names? In all honesty, I've been trying to steer this thread back to the orig. topic, no one seems to be willing to help me . Could you help me do this? I promise not to call you names.

My parting note: One thing I find irritating about your posts is that you seem to think you own the republican party. I base this on your invitation to another poster to "leave my party" as you said. Maybe you do own the party, if so, could you please allow me to remain a member for now?

Tom

To: fatboy
You said you thought I would be more confortable in a different party.

No, that's not "Calling names" but I don't believe in splitting hairs. In my opinion, both have the same effect.

As for "My Party". Yep...I do think I own it. I support it 100% without fail. Because of that, I am part owner. That being said, I would never say the same thing to a passionate advocate like you. I only say that type of thing to those like the poster I said it to...For obvious reasons.
