Democrats have an evil agenda, but they are passionate about it and they realize that wining elections is the only way to get the power to do anything, so that's all they care about. Whether a policy is good or bad is irrelevant, if it will turn out a voting bloc then do it.

I want to see republicans become as passionate about winning elections as democrats are. And I want republicans to understand that there are places where a pro-life, anti-LGBT candidate cannot win anything. So for the purpose of things that matter in terms of power, like control of the senate or HOR, electing a pro-choice, pro-LGBT republican in New York or New England or California is just as important as electing a pro-life, straight republican in Texas.

What the left doesn't understand is that like the Japanese at Pearl Harbor, you don't want "to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve"

When government interferes with everyday life in ways that disturb and anger the average family, a rebellion will be born. The sad thing here Owl is that most Americans have way to much tolerance for imbeciles. When we get to the point that the majority are angry it will be be ugly and there will be no stoppage of the ugliness until the threat is wholly expunged. That too alters the nation negatively. When otherwise tolerant and peaceful people are so angered it alters their natures and tolerance ceases to exist for a time.
