If we don't all hang together, then surly, we shall all hang alone.

Could you please explain to me, WHY , voting for a fringe candidate, instead of a Republican, is better, since the majority, of the populace will NEVER all vote for the same fringer, and thus allowing the Dems to win and have a majority ? Why is no bread, better than 1/2 a loaf ? Why is it better to die a pauper, under the heel of Liberals, than to vote in a GOP majority and at least get some of what you calim to want ? We're NOT talking about your pathetic little screech about dying rich and having no freedom. The weathier you are, the MORE freedom you have. Peons have neither wealth, NOR freedom.

First, it's my constitutional right to vote for who I want, irregardless of how many, or who, wants to intimidate me. Second, if the Republican is the better of two evils, then I am obligated to try to get something that is not evil.

Why is no bread, better than 1/2 a loaf ?

If the bread is rotten, then the answer should be self explanatory, unless you are one who benefits by others eating rotten bread. The other day, I was talking to a woman who was terrified that Saddam was going to bomb us. She was shaking at the thought of us attacking him, and wanted us to leave him alone, so maybe he would leave us alone. Like you, she couldn't understand why we needed something better than the status quo, when there was a possiblilty of something worse.

Why is it better to die a pauper, under the heel of Liberals, than to vote in a GOP majority and at least get some of what you calim to want ?

Who says that that we have to die paupers? I said, "It is better to have fought for freedom and died a peon, than to have sold freedom and died in comfort." Like I told the woman fearful of Saddam. If you want to make it better, then you have to take a chance. Don't accept something wrong, because you fear something else.

That sounds so clintonesque - and from a Republican on a Sunday morning. My, My! I suggest you take your silly intimidation somewhere else. I have fought for my country, and I am going vote as I see fit. I will never vote for a rapiest, because I fear a murderor more. I will never vote for a thief, because I fear a Godless, immoral traitor. Just because the Democratic Party is completely and totally sick, I will never agree that the Republican Party should strive to be only be half sick. Such a hypocritical acknowlegement only serves to strenghten the forces of evil.
