Your distinction is correct. I wanted to inject the deliberate corruption that results from the refusal to defend our borders, with which much of our Republican "leadership" is as guilty as the Clinton & Obama types.

We need to focus on the destructive effect of refusal to defend essential values, whether the result of ideological fanaticism, or a gutless form of pseudo-pragmatism, that leaves us impotent in the face of disaster.

The RNC represent a combination of the corrupt, with unstated real agenda, and pseudo-pragmatists (idiots or dysrons) who think they are clever, but are anything but.

Yup.
