Your post at #326 is so full of lies, misconceptions, and deceptions that I can't even copy it here to comment on it.
You apparently never read what I've written because I've addressed this at the beginning. It's been the attempt to create a 'bag tent' by GOP power brokers that has attracted liberals from the Democrat party. It's given you liberals a second chance to win and wield power by diluting the strength of the GOP message.
It doesn't matter if those holding the stated beliefs of a party are old or young, white, black, yellow, or brown, men or women, rich or poor, or anything else. If there is to be a big tent, it, of course, includes a variety of people. What it doesn't and can't do is embrace every idea and philosphy. That is insane.
Any party or group that is big enough that it can embrace both a pro life position and a baby killing faction, both pro gun and gun control sides, etc., is too big to stand for anything but power. If it doesn't stand for one side of an issue, a solid stance for one philosophy, for a principle then it isn't a party. It's just a mass of people without direction or meaning. It's only purpose is power for who ever is in charge. Power without principle leads to corruption and to tyranny.
And that's what you RINOs are advocating. You want acceptance of everything except conservatives. You want us to support you, but you always try to find a challenger for an incumbent conservative. You will find yourselves more at home where you belong in the Democrat party. You can leave any time now and you will not be missed.
