    Hello everybody!

    If we had a world without fundamentalists and progressives the world would be a better place.

    When conservatives resort to "both-sidesism," one knows they're disillusioned with the current state of conservatism. It's the bargaining stage of
    political grief.

    Probably. The interesting thing about "progressives" is that, like fundamentalists, they are pretty stuck on their way or no way.

    Hello Matt,

    There are no fundamentalists or progressives in this new world
    of ours. It is only MAGAS and non-MAGAS. With nothing or anybody
    in between.

    So, what is your solution?

    It might be best for non-MAGAS if they vote for a Dem against
    a MAGA candidate in order tp defeat the MAGAS and get their party
    back. They can switch back to regular Republicans once the MAGAS
    are gone.

    That's an appeal to Independents and what few remaining non-MAGAS
    there are in the Republican party.

    For Life,
    Lee

    I am abstaining in my congressional race in my district. Its so strongly Democrat, where if my congresswoman went after 15 year old boys or killed kittens she'd still win. My congressional nominee does not want people like me backing him so I am abstaining. Its fun being a gay latino union member Republican. lol

    I agree! If something isn't broke, it shouldn't be fixed!

    For some definition of "isn't broke," of course.

    Agreed. They the are the same thing. The only difference between them is the religion that they profess.


    ... Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.
