Come on, Bob.  The conservatives are not is any way
the extremist that the liberals are. Look at what you
are writing.  There are laws that must be followed. 
No one is trying to change every law on the books. 
Except the Democrats everytime they lose an election. 
And welfare is not going away.  Look at what the
republicans gave the elderly.  A prescription drug
benefit.  How many years have the democrats promise
that.  And you talk about the minorities.  Guess what,
the mirorities are flocking to the republican side due
to the positive change that the republican are making
on this country.
