Abortion groups
Extreme Enviromentalists (Sierra Club) and PETA
Gay Rights (marriage)
I could go on and on but then I would be accused of "hate".
These groups are ONE ISSUE groups that your party embraces for the VOTES.
I do not agree with ANY of them!

We Republican do not EMBRACE the VERY FEW extreme groups in our party.
The crazies DEFINE the Democratic party - it seems to me.

Dark Angel - would not report you for disagreeing with me. That is not how I operate. I do not mind a difference of opinion when it is not a personal attack. So go ahead - comment on my questions all you like!

Doesn't it bother anti-progressives like yourself that there are so many hate groups within your party?
-KKK
-Nazis
-"Christian" Coalition
But, I will forget political differences, peace be with you fellow Wisconsinite.

You are absolutely correct that the Democratic Party is inundated with interest groups who only promote one issue. However, the Republican Party is no different. For example you have these interest groups in the Republican camp:
1. Pro-lifers
2. People for the elimination of the separation between church and state
3. People who are for big business
4. People who are pro-military and for global hegemony.
The fact that the Democratic Party has interest groups that only focus on one issue is simply not something unique to the Democrats.

Why can't you people see that the present republicans are the largest group of fanatics ever in this country?The terrorist detainee bill passed today is another example of taking freedom away and denying the Geneva convention,which was a pact to protect All sides in a war.Now our men will be in more danger of torture and denied rights to a fair trial.Even Gen. Collin Powell said so.We are losing more freedoms every day,the country has gone from 400 billion dollar surplus to the present 8 trillion dollar deficit.They tried to sell our ports in the dubais ports deal.Turned their back on Katrina.Got is into an idiotic war, we might as well have gone to war with canada for as much good as it's doing.The g.o.p. is a organization that runs on smear tactics,fear tactics, and pretending it is Gods own group!IIt supports oil and big business and forgets that this country was built by the common man with a good heart,strong hands and a desire for freedom.Democrats have alot to be proud of.

Yeah, what were they thinking? As if freedom of speech exists anymore. I say we get those Pita dudes and burn em' at the stake with the mooslims and the *******. Yeah right.
And abortion, will you ever see that child again, probably someone who will end up beaten to death or starving to death slowly, crying for mercy with every meal missed and every blow dealt? As long as you don't have to deal with it, right? I'm sure.
And go ahead and report me. I know this is way too much truth for you to handle, isn't it?

That doesn't bother me. The Republcans have their own... KKK and such. Abortion groups, Gay Rights groups are not bad/crazy at all. Extreme Environmentalist groups, are by defintion extreme, but I DEFINATELY do not think the Sierra Club is extreme and PETA is a great organization but sometimes they don't go about communicating the best.

see... that's what it's all about... being accepting and open to people with other beliefs... the only people many democrats don't like are those that aren't open to other's beliefs...
and just because it's a one issue group... that doesn't mean that all the people involved in those groups only care about one issue... it just means that each group has focused goals dealing with one issue...
I'm sure members of PETA have views on abortion for example...
I mean there are pro-chioce groups you know? And groups who fight against gay rights...

That is what they call "flip flopping" They can't stand together on any one issue until they lie about it enough until it becomes a major issue. Then and only then do they support that issue and hence---flip flop liberals.

What other issues do the republicians have other than filling their own greedy pockets and keeping the rest of us oppressed?
