I am ashamed. I laughed and laughed at that.

As I've mentioned before in a few other places, the only way radical-righters can "win" arguments is by changing what words mean.

Maybe he's looking at Austin's reps--4 out of 5 are Repubs.

Gerrymandering, anyone?

They vote against their own interests in a variety of interesting ways.The whining group, AKA-can't get laid group, vote against women cuz its their fault.The gun idiots are gun idiots. Jeebus freaks are zombies. And then a whole friggin' bunch of them are just racist AF etc., etc.

Maybe, and I am just going out on a limb here, it's time for them to wonder why they are so successful at producing boogeymen.When something weird or horrific happens, you can pretty much be certain that the perp will be a white straight rwnj who loves Jeebus. It's almost as if all that Faux news fear and conspiracy theory diet they're on isn't conducive to good mental health.

actually you could be right that they're all single-issue voters who just happen to add up to 30-35%. My lefty friends tend to be single-issue too, it's discouraging.

It's almost like living in that home schooled christianist bubble doesn't prepare you to live in the real world.

As an American, I can't argue with that. This country was founded on wonderful ideals, but we've rarely lived up to them.

I can't tell you how glad I am to hear that I was not the only one.

one definition, or description, I like is that a terrorist uses the media and the publicity he generates to comment on or change the political order. I'm hoping that examining his laptop & browsing history shows why he picked these particular people.
