"Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem.

Frankly, these people frighten me.

Politics and governing demand compromise.

But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them."

1. If Barry Goldwater and Teddy Roosevelt were around today

they would load their shotguns with salt and blister the asses of the religulous reichwingers from now until doomsday. And how.

would be the GOP voice of reason. Remember when he was considered their wild eyed radical?
