OK, one last shot.
Let me be blunt — If you vote for the GOP you are aligning yourself with some of the most radical, hateful, and ill-informed people in our country. Here is just one TINY example. Today I received an email from the Traditional Values Coalition (I have no idea how I got on their list, but I’m glad I am). And here are a few choice quotes from the frantic email…
I won’t bore you with the details of the last four years — you know them all too well: Obamacare, the HHS mandate, “religious toleration” replacing religious liberty, the bombshell discovery of how the National Institutes of Health (NIH) funds and fuels the radical left, four years where Islamists have been able to freely build radical mosques and entrench shariah in our neighborhoods and communities, the suspension of “don’t ask don’t tell” and the crackdown on our military chaplains.
A few paragraphs later…
Nowhere does the issue of friendly liberal judges have greater momentum within the homosexual and transgender left than with the Employee Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA).
This pet bill would — at a stroke — put transgenders in the classroom, in our small businesses, and in our government as a legally protected class… taking the legal protections for disadvantaged minorities such as women or African-Americans and appropriating them for when Marvin decides he wants to become “Mary.”
Got that? Forget about fixing the economy, protecting women’s rights, ensuring clean air and water, ending wars and helping veterans. Ignore our failing infrastructure, growing income inequality, protecting Israel and stopping Iran from getting the bomb.
You fools! Don’t you see that our really big problem is … transgenders in the classroom! Oh, how could I have been so blind?!
Dear readers, that ridiculous email is the smallest tip of a massive iceberg. The GOP depends on “low-information voters.” Vote for the GOP and you reward their massive campaign deceptions, widespread and despicable efforts to suppress voter turnout (in Democratic strongholds), and you are voting, absolutely, to turn back the clock to the disasters of the Bush years.
And you align yourself with climate change deniers, virulent and violent anti-choice groups, gay bashers, covert and overt racists, and proponents of “creationism” and other hard-core anti-science belief systems.
Why in the world would you do that?
Please vote with your head, and please urge other to do the same.
Thanks for caring about the truth.

Ken,
I can appreciate your propaganda using far right conservatives as examples of extremism. God knows there are plenty of Far Left nuts to go around as well. The problem is, while it is fair to point out the radical “Right” how about pointing out the Radical Left. Is Obama a Radical Left? Where did he develop his ideology of Redistribution and transformation, the concept upon which he ran his earlier campaign on? Do your readers know anything about Frank Marshall Davis or Edward Said, just two of his mentors that laid the foundation of his social and political views? Explain to your Liberal readers who they are and what kind of influence they have had on Obama.
Ken, I’ve read Obama’s books and done as much research as I can on the man. I have nothing against him personally. I just don’t believe he has the full understanding about who and what America is all about. I’m glad he was elected in 2008. I voted for him. Like so many Americans, I knew very little about him at the time except that he sounded fantastic as compared to McCain. Unfortunately, the ability to wax eloquence doesn’t make you the kind of leader this Country so desperately needed four years ago. Answer this question: Given the background of both candidates, as Chairman of the Board, if they applied for a job as a CEO in a major corporation that you were responsible for, who between them would you select and why?
Much has NOT been said about a very important correction posted by the New York Times regarding the orchestration of Bibi Netanyahu’s speech to Congress next month. To summarize, the New York Times initially reported that Bibi accepted Boehner’s invitation to address Congress before the White House was made aware. This was not correct. Netanyahu accepted after the White House was informed. This may at the outset seem insignificant but it is certainly not. While I disagree with those that find Netanyahu’s actions to be hostile and belligerent, the corrected timeline of events should mitigate the backlash. Let it also be known that the New York Times only corrected the story online and not in their print copy. Shame on the New York Times for that.
