A)  Christian Right and Neo-conservatives are two VERY different things so its not like they are working together for eeevil or anything.  Most full-Christian righters are angry with the Bush administration for its tacit support of gay rights and many populists don't like the Iraq war.  Most neocons think that the christian right just gets in the way too much Smiley

B) The vast majority of the Republican party is comprised of moderates, moderate-conservatives, and 'normal' conservatives and libertarians.  We aren't as whacko as the European media would have you believe.  Ok some of us are, but most of us arent Smiley

So you'd trust Howard Dean?  I guess that is more of a personal decision as to whether you trust someone or not.  But I will tell you that from my perspective the #1 reason to vote for President Bush is because I DO trust him.  I trust that he does what he does because of his faith and conviction.  Both parties have leaders who have business connections and many of these are suspect (don't get me started on Linda Daschle!) so you shouldn't single out Bush.

So you'd prefer a candidate like Howard Dean who is 100% opposed to free trade???

Dude, you aren't a socialist, get a blue icon Smiley

TOO DOMINANT??? AIEEE!!!  We endure 140 years of Democrats controlling EVERYTHING and now that we are catching up and control the majority of legislatures, governorships, congress, and the Presidency (all of which the Dems had before 1994) you are saying that we are too dominant!  *has a heartattack*  ARRRGH! Let us catch our breaths for a moment then we will talk about dominance! EEEEE!

Here in Tennessee, we and our dominant selves are desperately trying to oust a corrupt Democrat regime in our state house and senate that has been in place since.... well... since forever.  I don't even think we had GOP control of the legislature during reconstruction! Democrats fought our attempts to open up and reform the legislature along with having recorded votes in committee meetings.  We'll get 'em eventually, but it may take a few more years.

My point wasn't that neo-conservatives and the christian right are the same thing and I know that not all republicans are whackos! I just don't trust a lot of the people around Bush to say "Hey, wait a minute we can't do this". I got the feeling that they wouldn't stop at anything. The intrusions of the state into individuals personal freedoms like those prisoners on Cuba..., I just don't like it.

Well, maybe so. It just seems more pronounced in Bush, but as I said is not really logical I just feel a strong inclination against him, that's all.

I agree Dean would be a bit of a mothful, and Iäm not sure I would have the moral strength to vote for him (then again I'm not allowed to vote, so...).

You're right I'm not a socialist! If I can handle the embarassement I might well change my mind...Smiley

Well, there is another thing though! I believe it's important with changes in power. The GOP is becoming a little too dominant and that isn't healthy.
