Feeding a stupid troll who gets off with his mouth is a waste of good

I beg to differ. I have seen some serious splitting of the general
Republican party into at least two camps, with the main axes of
polarization being along religious lines, and along the lines of
national-defense/immigration.

Bush II flat out lost a huge chunk of the base which had otherwise been
his for the asking when he not only failed to secure the border
post-9/11 but additionally offered his vision of the "Guest Worker
Shamnesty". Regardless of that, the Republican base began to split on
its own, primarily over religious-interpretive issues on the one hand
and to some degree over support for Israel on the other hand. While
doubtless the majority of Republicans are Xian, and perhaps the majority
of those Xians are best classified as fundamentalist, the open
expectations of the Dispensationalist factions -- best characterized by
a remark attributed to former Secretary of the Interior James Watt
saying "once we destroy the natural world then Jesus will come again" --
began to be countered by a swelling "Creation Conservation" movement.
Outside the camp of the Fundamentalist Republicans, however, was a
growing camp of non-fundie Xians and other denominations who believed in
the "old school" core beliefs and who weren't going along with the
radical-Xian plans. Call them the "secular-libertarian Republicans".
They actually represent the center-core of the Republican base and
effectively they remained where they always had been, and attracted new
membership, while the Bush-Cheney "Rovites" dragged the True Follower
Republicans into a faith-based extremism, in fact towards open theocracy.

So I don't totally disagree with your assessment, but I do disagree that
the midpoint of the Republicans moved into religious extremism. Rather,
that was a few really strong leaders and their really committed
followers. But as the false gods' feet of clay became better seen by
increasing numbers, we got more disaffection and defection back to the
centrist camp. See also the fall of Tom DeLay and the consequent --
albeit without fanfare -- erosion of the "K Street Project".

Oh, absolutely. Here in Maryland that's very much the case. Governor Bob
Ehrlich was practically left-leaning by the Bible Belt standards of the
theotropic Republican base, what with his support for Stem Cell Research
(Maryland is a world leader in biotechnology) and slot-machines as an
additional funding mechanism alternative to increasing general taxes.
Yet even the most staunch theotropic Republicans voted for him simply
because it was the closest to actual two-party government seen in
Maryland since the day of Spiro T. Agnew.

Considering that I'm practically arguing your point for you, above, I
can't entirely disagree. But I'd refine it to say that this election had
elements of a sincere rejection of theotropism in party politics. I
haven't yet looked into it but it may be that there's support for the
thesis that those Democrats who were elected were probably the most
socially-conservative, and that the Republicans unseated were the most
religiously Fundamentalist. That would indicate that the voters were
affirming social conservatism at the same time they rejected theocratic
tropes in the Republican party.

Not really, most Republican are not that far from being Democrats.
Remove some of the emotional issues and educate them. The problem is the
Neo-Conservatives who dominate the policies of this administration. No
one voting for Bush thought they voted Neo-Conservative.

House GOP Shows Its Fractiousness In the Minority

By Jonathan Weisman
Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, January 14, 2007; Page A01

House Republican leaders, who confidently predicted they would drive a
wedge through the new Democratic majority, have found their own party
splintering, with Republican lawmakers siding with Democrats in droves
on the House's opening legislative blitz.

Freed from the pressures of being the majority and from the heavy hand
of former leaders including retired representative Tom DeLay (R-Tex.),
many back-bench Republicans are showing themselves to be more moderate
than their conservative leadership and increasingly mindful of shifting
voter sentiment. The closest vote last week -- Friday's push to require
the federal government to negotiate lower drug prices for Medicare --
pulled 24 Republicans. The Democrats' homeland security bill attracted
68 Republicans, the minimum wage increase 82.

"You're freer to vote your conscience," said Rep. Jo Anne Emerson
(R-Mo.), who received an 88 percent voting record from the American
Conservative Union in 2005 but has so far sided with Democrats on new
budget rules, Medicare prescription-drug negotiations, raising the
minimum wage and funding stem cell research. "Or, really, I feel free to
represent my constituents exactly as they want me to be."

"Times have changed. I don't want to be someone who they say is too
stubborn to change too," said Rep. Rodney Alexander (R-La.), whose 92
percent conservative rating did not stop him from voting with Democrats
on the homeland security and minimum-wage bills.

TJ, those congresscritters are adopting mainstream views and
moving away from Repug views.

It demonstrates perfectly that Repug views are fringe idiocy.

"Republican thought" or "Republican views" are what the majority of
Republicans commonly profess as a group. Thus, "Repug" views are
themselves moving toward the mainstream.

The majority of the members of the Republican congress and Senate are
not moving toward the mainstream, only a few.

The fact that a few Repug congresscritters are supporting Democratic
positions demonstrates that Repug views are fringe idiocy.

To a Canadian, eh? Nisarel is a notorious troll, lots of people believe
that he's somewhat in the pay of the Canadian government, spending years
at a time arguing in news:talk.politics.guns against the American Second
Amendment to our Constitution. Basically his main thing is that he wants
all Americans disarmed. You know, to be more susceptible to the Invasion
once everyone's in place and it turns bloody.

We Americans reserve the right to defend ourselves against Invasion.
It's in every Constitution in the USA.

When you use the verbage you've employed above, you show three things.

1. You're young.

2. You're not very bright.

3. You're not worth taking seriously. My guess is, you're used that.

*Repug" views are themselves moving toward the mainstream.* This would
suggest that Repug views are not mainstream.

No matter what one's views of politics, anyone who uses verbiage such
as "Repug" (or "Dimocrat") is a puerile goof. When I see it I
automatically picture a round red bulb on the poster's nose.

Let's just say that as regards the views of a certain cadre associated
with the Republican Party -- which is to say, the
Republicans-in-Name-Only -- have drifted in a direction different from
the way everyone else's views have drifted.

If you wanted to call the "RINO" views as fringe idiocy, well, for a
while a lot of people were taken in, but now we know better.

That isn't to suggest that all of a sudden genuine Conservative Real
Republicans are licking the feet of Hillary Clinton, ya know.
