Fine, okay, it's a blog already!

Another conservative bemoans how the GOP has turned into a racist, hate-filled mob.

I am reminded, again, how many Republicans there are out there who aren't Tea Bagger Terrorists. My father-in-law was in town this weekend and, for quite a lot of reasons, he's the kind of Republican you want in this country. I don't agree with much he believes in, but his voice is one our leaders should be listening to. It is the counter-balance needed to make sure government doesn't go too far in trying to take care of our nation's many ills.

This is not accomplished by heeding the rants of white power anarchists.

So, give the article a read, nod a few times in key passages, and hope folks like Frum, and Currey, and my father-in-law and some friends can get their shit together and fix their party. We need them too, whether - and BECAUSE - you don't agree with them on all things. You grow as a person (and a nation) while debating other interesting and educated people. Yelling with bigoted douchebags just won't do the job.
