We allow and in fact welcome anyone in our church service. They can even add to the offering plate, should they desire...even wiccans can attend, as long as they obey the rules, but we won't let Antione Levy preach in the pulpit.

Rinos are welcome to vote Republican, just don't ask to be the leader.

Your own obsession w/Keyes is what obsesses us, EV. We have long memories of your obsession w/him.....when is he going to announce his candidacy? I'm sure he will want to take advantage of your paving the way for him after slaying all the Republican dragons.

I am not talking at all about religious denominations or Christian identification.

I am talking about mainstream political polls over the past thirty years. They are consistent in showing self-identifying conservatives outnumbering self-identifying liberals two-to-one. Gallup, Harris, take your pick.

Now, it is true that moderates are usually as numerous or slightly more than conservatives, but that is not what I was talking about where you said I was "wrong."

I notice you haven't gotten an answer to that question for a couple of months now, have you?

There are always limits on compromise, though.

Like when the candidate supports all of the opposition party's positions, and none of our own.

Nah, he's funny and entertaining.

I know this thread is supposed to be about issues, but since it has already pancaked, I have a question.

I enjoy a witty flame match as much as the next guy, but am I the ONLY one who thinks FR is overrun with a bunch of brittle hate filled strident moralists? I miss the Reagan days when the keynote was REDUCING GOVERNMENT and promoting freedom. Now it seems like every thread has a gaggle of clones of some bitter old geezer who is intent on alienating everyone not married to some arcane item of morality.

I liked it better when conservatives were happy and pro-liberty, rather than bitter legalist malcontents. By the way, I am a very devout Christian. I would say I am a "fundamentalist" but I am not mad at anyone about my faith. I am not anti-morality, just pro-freedom.

You guys are obsessed with Alan Keyes. I find that interesting.

LOL It is just so predictable.

Your M.O. is to tear down any and all front runners, stay relatively quiet on those who may actually meet your conservative criteria, then Praise The Lord when Alan Keye$ decides to $ave The Country, all while $aving his income $tream.

I almost never bring him up. It's y'all who do. It's a fixation that is quite interesting to observe.

Looks about right to me; I wish they'd go ahead and pull the trigger.

None of the other Republicans I know are even thinking about any of the crap that are cutting and pasting here.

Gays and abortion just aren't going to be an issue in 2008.

Since your full time job here is tearing down the Republican candidates, WHO are you FOR? (besides yourself and Keyes)

Ping us all if you get anything close to an answer to that one.

I, like most Americans, have not picked a candidate.

But I assure you it won't be Mitt McRomney.
