"There are no moderates in the other party. 'Moderate Republican' is like 'friendly shark' or 'straight priest.' It just doesn't exist." --Bill Maher
(I personally take exception here. I think there are, in fact, moderate Republicans--David Brook being a moderate Conservative. It's just that the moderates aren't involved and engaged. The leadership of the Republican Party is held hostage by the extremists who are outspoken and engaged in the process. They are, at times, too, handing out money as in the cases of the Koch brothers and the Heritage Foundation).

As a means of purely keeping people from saying mean, ugly, vile or profane or slanderous things, I moderate comments. I'll get your comment up soon as possible (as long as it's not any of the above).
