We have a lot of those nutjobs right here on FR. It's a shame because we know the media reads FR and after seeing some of the crazier comments around here, I almost can't blame the media for thinking Republicans are either a) nuts or b) hate-filled. We're seeing living proof right here on FR.

True enough, and very sad, because as you noted, EVERYONE reads this site to get the pulse on what Conservatives are thinking. Sadly, we have become an embarassment that many are backing away from in droves. Outside of the cursing, what is the difference today between us and DU? So many uniformed comments, so much emotional rhetoric and ignorance of facts, all in an attempt to be the smartest person in the room, rather than to forward the cause.

I used to rant all the time about the simple fact that you cant do squat if you dont win, only to be shouted down by creeps with agendas beyond the Conservative cause.

One example: Duncan Hunter.

I live in San Diego County and I KNOW Duncan Hunter, and I can tell you that his chances for the Presidency are worse than mine. Any Freeper could do a bit of digging and find a TON of financial malfeasence and dirty dealing in Hunter's background, but because he parrots a good Conservative speak, many just jump on that train with nothing but their own ignorance to guide them. It is embarassing to watch, and it reminds me of the same foolishness that cause so-called Conservatives to back Ross Perot, leading to the Clinton presidency.

Nuts will be nuts, but you would think that with Google and other tools, that Conservatives would have enough energy to back up their positions with facts. Until that happens, Conservatism is DOOMED.
