Re: Tea Party again, surprise surprise
Good eye!
Another quote from that article:
quote:
It is even less popular than much maligned groups like atheists and Muslims. Interestingly, one group that approaches it in unpopularity is the Christian Right.
At last, unpopular groups who actually earned their unpopularity!

You still refuse to tell me why I, as a lower-middle class american, should vote conservative/republican. What are they doing for me?
All my adult life, I've been the only Democrat in a Republican family (as was my ex, who's also a unionist), having registered Democrat mainly because of Nixon's then-current first term. Kind of ironic, since Nixon was a flaming leftist liberal compared to the present-day GOP.
A year or two ago, I heard something very surprising. My very Republican brother-in-law, who retired a few years earlier, made the remark: "I'm beginning to realize that the Republicans are not my friends."
