As a conservative atheist – it’s great to have you aboard! I’ll keep writing if you will.

Cynthia, you are exactly right! I am a conservative and member of the GOP but I am glad you are fighting on our side in this. The problem with conservatives is that we try to be rational and fair, so we accept too easily the demonization of conservatives.

I read few responses on Protein Wisdom and the fear that Letterman will become a martyr and conservatives will be tarred is true. Conservatives have been bashed by unreasoning emotion leftists so long they are fearful.

Get rid of him and all others that enable him.

I am glad that we have a common issue. I suppose that we will part ways on other issues, but I accept your help and glad you and Sebastian of Hillbuzz are fighting for us. Damn we do need you and Sebastian.

Thanks to great bloggers and activists like Cythania and Sebastian.
Believe me….conservative supporters of Sarah Palin see the efforts you guys are putting in to defend her and it will not be forgotten since gratitude is the memory of the heart. Real GLBT rights supporters (not marxists and leftists)should learn from you guys because this is how you win friends and allies in places you would not expect.
Thanks again for your bravery, support and principle.

God I love you! This is what I have been screaming at my TV for years. Republicans have some sort of mutant polite gene that prevents them from being bulldogs. I will write more letters today!

Cynthia,

You kick ass! I have written a post on my Blog (part of a series to re-build the party called the Republican Encyclicals). The post is called: Our battlefields.

This is the first step. I will be charting the other battlefields on my Blog — but we must hit and hit until they say “We will not make Emmanuel Goldsteins of your people,” (as they did with palin and her family.

And I speak as a former NYC’er and political partisan from the Old school.

I don’t forgive Letterman. David Letterman’s new apology obscures his intentional cruelty to a noncombatant: Bristol Palin. A proper apology would acknowledge he wrongly pulled an 18 year old noncombatant into the spotlight; would acknowledge he wrongly subjected her to ridicule and scorn. David Letterman cannot admit, to himself or to the nation, he was intentionally cruel to Bristol Palin, and was wrong to subject her to ridicule and scorn.

His excuses contradict each other:

“But there was a joke that I told, and I thought I was telling it about the older daughter being at Yankee Stadium.”

“And I had, honestly, no idea that the 14-year-old girl, I had no idea that anybody was at the ball game except the governor and I was told at the time she was there with Rudy Giuliani … ”

And if he didn’t know anyone was at the game, why did he check to make sure she was 18?

He says the next day people were angry at him for insulting a 14 year-old, but that night he tells the Spitzer joke?

It’s not so much the Republicans give up easily, or are weenies. It’s that conservative types don’t tend to also be activist types. Shouting and carrying signs and such – these things don’t come easily to us. We tend to keep to ourselves and expect others to do the same.

That’s what was so significant about the Tea Parties. The liberals could whip up a lather and a couple hundred loonies to march around for just about any old cause – it just comes natural to them. For the rest of us to do the same thing was just amazing.

More of us need to step up and be activists AND conservatives. I’m one of many bloggers that are trying to spread the word not only via blog, but by friends, at work, etc… I don’t get a lot of hits, but I get a few, and maybe those few will convince someone on the fence to swing in our direction on their next vote.

“Republicans give up so damn easy at just about everything.”

Democrats play hard ball. Show time, down and dirty, major league hardball.

Republicans play Modified Slow-Pitch Softball. They are weenies.

And I will be reminding the RNC of that fact in my response to their latest mailing, an obama “poll”. As if they don’t already know how we really feel. As if they care.

Damn RINOs
