I wish that people stopped making generalizations about "Republicans". Most Republicans I know are NOT religious in any way, are for gay marriage and are for a woman's right to do whatever she wants to with her body. Really only a small percentage of Republicans are the Bush/Cheney crowd.

Most are really Libertarians but choose to register as Republicans so they can vote in their state's primaries (they choose Republican because Republicans often run on similar Libertarian platforms, at least more than the Democrats). Most Republicans I know can't stand how their party is now. They want to start over and make it more Libertarian again, lke it is supposed to be.

Awesome!!!! Awesome post, I would rep you but I can't.

As I have said before, (jmo), not all republicans are conservative, not all conservatives are in bed with the religious right, most all the religious right are republicans though. See the problem. It is almost a requirement to pander to the religious right to get anywhere in politics as a conservative, or libertarian. Libertarianism and true conservatism are very very closely intertwined I believe. So many speak highly of libertarians here, I need to dedicate some time to more closely study this.
(I have nothing against religion at all. This is just an observation that I have made.)
