Reply #45: If you're going to base your entire strategy on what the GOP thinks..

... then you're going to waste all your time haunting FR forums wondering if you're being talked about by idiots whose minds are already made up, rather than actually working on a plan of action to get your agenda promoted.

Rush and his followers can point to any number of threads on this forum and whine "See? Told you so!" Pick a thread, any thread. Want to claim DUers are a bunch of dope-smoking dipshits? Pick a thread advocating the legalization of marijuana and start pointing fingers.

Want to claim DUers are a bunch of fags? Pick a thread advocating gay marriage or civil unions.

Want to claim DUers are a bunch of church-hating atheists? Pick a thread discussing Christian intolerance.

In short, anything and everything remarked on around here is seized and twisted by the obsessed little right-wing stalkers on the web to justify their own positions. Like I said, if you're going to waste time worrying about "what they might say" or "how they'll react," you'll be basing your entire operational strategy on the opinion of the opposition.

I, for one, don't care to chain my goals or aspirations to such a ridiculous anchor.
