Reply #6: My siblings now call themselves "Independents" like I did 25 year.s when I left the GOP

Then I realized that there was a political party that stood for the things I believe in and that it was the Democratic Party.

Of course, I was a Moderate/Liberal Republican and they just don't have those any longer. Actually, they have fewer and fewer true Conservative Republicans any more. But they do have plenty of crooks, cheaters, neo-cons, hypocrites, sex-obsessed, misogynist, anti-tolerance, cronyists.
