Anyone stupid enough to let this be their deciding issue, rather than the economy, taxes, abortion, national defense, the SCOTUS, etc. (I could go on and on, but you get the idea) is not, or should not be the GOP's target electorate anyway.
Enough with the namby pamby middle of the road moderates! We want real, true Conservatives, not just enough liberals to "like us" enough to help us win elections.
We need to get past being the United States of the Offended. And we need to effectively shut down those who are consistently acting as apologists for our side to those who make their living by being offended.
The libs have been using the "in your face" tactic for years, while the GOP continues to apologize for being racist... to those same minorities that THEY (the GOP) have stood up for for years.
Ask your average Obama voter which party freed the slaves; or which party passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964. They don't know BECAUSE THE LIBERAL'S GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS NEVER TAUGHT IT TO THEM!!! And we are supposed to get all worked up because they do not understand parody, and might...heaven forbid...take it the wrong way?
I have ceased to give a fat rat's ass what the liberals, or their apologists on "our" side get upset about.
It's high time that we quit pussy-footing around these people. It's also time we quit paying folks to sit on their ass and make babies, while giving preferential treatment to substandard people like Barack and Michelle so they can get to the top and rule over us.
It is time we told all of the whiners in both the Democrat and Republican parties what we should have been saying all along: "Now, we're going to be in YOUR face. Deal with it!"

I have kids in US history right now...I can assure you they know Lincoln a Republican freed the slaves...again excuses for the 2008 losses. We lost because most people don’t believe Roe VS. Wade will ever be overturned and have no idea of what a conservative is...yelling at them and insulting them will not win their votes.
