So, please, "moderate republicans" whoever you are, wherever you are, go at it . . . do what you need to do to make sure that the bigotry of a few does not become the law of the many.
Update
ROAD TRIP: Next week is a perfect time for a friendly outing . . . if you're in a swing state, take someone of the other partisan persuasion to Bill Maher's new most amazing and eye-opening movie, Religulous. Then show them Phil Burress' video (www.christianadc.org). It's funny until it's for really real.
Update
For more on Burress' Christian Nationalist posse,
see http://www.nytimes.com/...
You'll get the stomach-churning scoop on philandering Phil, what he did in 2004 and why he's described as the "Paul Revere for the movement against same-sex marriage."
Update
ANOTHER ROAD TRIP: If you live in the Cincinnati area, consider taking a "moderate republican" friend -- preferably school board or local city council member -- to the Creation Museum in Kentucky. Not only does this $30 million, 70m square foot monstrosity give a scary preview of what Palin would teach as science, it graphically shows just how far this movement will go to turn belief into fact (6,000 year old world created in 7 days and if you don't take Jesus as your savior you will burn in hell). It's brainwashing incarnate and any "moderate republican" forced to confront it head on, will at least have a heavier load on his or her conscience when they vote in November. (I know, you don't want to give the crazies money, but you already are -- the museum is tax subsidized -- and the real issue is bearing witness so that you can spread the alarm with firsthand knowledge. The place is so frighteningly slick and intellectually abusive, only seeing is truly believing . . . sickening as it may be.)
