We laughed at the Republican busybody who couldn't joke, declared war on dirty paintings, and peered through your bedroom window. Now that person has switched sides, and nobody's laughing

this article was written with a lefty perspective.



it seems that lefties can't make fun of other people on certain issues because the subject matter is controversial or makes you look "racist".


does this sound right about the article?

This perceived devotion to "intelligent design" and being labeled a Christian, is what kept me from identifying with the Republican party and still does which is why I'm NPA. I'm an agnostic so I can't be a Republican. OK, if you say so but then I don't want to be a Republican anyway. I'm an Independent and all Independents whether they care to admit it or not, lean to the left or to the right. At this point in time, I lean right. Many, many years ago when religion defined the Republican party, for many it still does but I forgot about that when it was obvious that someone like a Pat Robertson, would never be elected President so I quite worrying about the religious influence on the Republican party. I still wouldn't adopt the label but I quit worrying about a "Republican" any Republican taking office because not all of them were Pat Robertson devotees as much as Democrats would like us to believe. This is where I suspect I will be told not all Democrats are devotees of AOC as Republicans would like us to believe. Fair enough but I think that is changing.


While in my opinion, religious influence in the Republican party has waned, but certainly not disappeared, the Socialist, Communist, Anarchist influence on the Democrat party has exploded.


I will not vote a "straight ticket" even though I am leaning right. Some people even though they tell me they will vote the way I would like them to vote, I would not vote for.


While not all Democrats, as SR constantly reminds me, want to tear down America that has "never been great" in their estimation, their numbers are getting stronger and stronger not fading like the religious fanatics in the Republican party.


So strong in fact, that the weakness being shown by Biden is in fact a good thing as people like Angela Davis and other radicals have said. "He can be manipulated" I believe is the word she chose.


This idea that Biden will not give in to the radicals in his party is laughable. He is doing it before our very eyes.

The CommunistSocialistLiberalAntiT rumpers can't CONTROL the "masses" with the presence of a God and firearms!

"In God We Trust"! ...... Not the Government.
