I don't enjoy being called a sexist or an elitist for being a conservative Republican who finds this a very weak nomination and as an Evangelical Christian am offended by the manipulation of Christian leader (Dobson) to shepherd in the fellow conservative Christians to the Meir's side. We are the ones that worked so hard to get him in office. Now we are sexists and elitists?

'Sexist' has just about lost its meaning. The same goes for 'racist.' The two terms have been misused and abused so much over the years that they've lost that sense of importance or reality. "Evangelical" is a political label, meaning what these days, I don't know--other than the fact that Harriet Miers apparently is one.

Are these people being PAID to come up with such grade school caliber charges?

"Evangelical" is a political label"

Not to an Evangelical, conservative Christian. It is our life. The politicians might think it is just a label to use. But, if the Republican party breaks promises it made during the election to acquire votes from the 'Evangelical' Christians, they will find in the upcoming elections we answer to a higher authority than the Republican party and will not vote for those that deceived us in the past.
