What do you think of the Republicans platform?
Thank you for posting this list of republican plank items.





It shows how small minded they are and what they think of the voters who get letters like this asking for money to support such utter garbage. Notice how they vilify the democrats and independents.





The RNC must not think very highly of their voter support. Any organization that thinks that little of their base deserves what they got and what is about to happen early next year when their candidates are thrown from their offices en masse.
Reply:I'm not filling out that whole thing. If the GOP doesn't already know what their conservative base wants, then they don't deserve to win in 2008.
Reply:If that really is the Republican Party Census Document, I can see why they're having so many problems. They're concentrating all their energies on the Democrats-as-enemy angle, instead of suggesting ways to actually improve our country (in ways other than fighting Democrats). There are as many Democrats in this country as Republicans. I'm looking for candidates who are willing to do their best to represent the entire country, and not just the citizens who voted/donated for them.
Reply:Your name is Libby? And your a Dem? Your father is proud Im so sure! Shalom!
Reply:It's a blank of a lot better than a Democrat's agenda of sneaking in Universal Health-Care, Illegal Aliens, and cutting, and running from the war on terrorism, without the permission of the American People!
Reply:I'm a conservative and I don't agree with everything that the party represents..I will be voting for a republican
Reply:I think it would be funny if someone would get a saw and cut the legs off their platform.
