I know there are which is why I continue to read/post here. I don't like the one-sidedness and this discussion was going too far which is why I piped up. I am concerned that the trend of the party is letting the far-right take over the party...frindges never work and we can't get a majority with the frindge controlling the party...we saw that with the Democrats from 1994-present and I hope that the other shoe is dropping. There have been a few alarms over the last twelve years, but thankfully, to date, the Ds have let their frindge control the Party more than the Rs have let their frindge control their's.

Just where is this "far right" you guys are always talking about? The right is just the right. The only "far" ones, on the fringes are the likes of Phelp's so called church. The rest are just good rationale people who see life through the lens of reality, and know that in reality, if life is lived with good character and morals, your life span is increased, the country prospers, and so does the individual.

Civilization cannot exist where there is no common moral code, as that is what allows people to coexist in large numbers. Laws are only as good as the civilization that lives around them. Govt can make all the laws it wants, but without people of good character and morals, their only use is in creating more crime. Good character, morals, knowing what you feel and how it differs from what is real, convictions firmly ensconced in ones soul, values the people are raised to hold dear, and even to a degree conformity, ALL are required for a civilization to continue. Declaring things "not against the law" does not make them right. The laws are obeyed by the right, not because it would be against the law not to, but because we are a society of law and order, and people of good character and morals, don't do the wrong things, even if it isn't against the law.

There is no right way to do the wrong thing. And there is no far right, there is only conservatives who believe in doing the right thing, NOT the wrong thing. Doesn't sound "fringe to most people at all, and certainly not bigoted.

FR btw, does not promote special rights for homosexuals. If anyone here on FR is on the fringes, it is people who do.

Just curious, are you also for special rights, acceptance, and promotion of other forms of deviant behavior??
