...the mistaken notion.

Imagine that. A political party spearheaded by the likes of Rush Limberger (Limbaugh), Dick Cheney and Newt Gingrich. Sounds to me like the Republicans are being self-destructive. Allowing ultra-conservative fanatics to take charge. By default, moreorless. The far right is losing on virtually every issue. So now they outlandishly talk secession from the U.S., forming their own country. And their ilk are even becoming domestic terrorists. Going into church to kill people they don't like. Little wonder that only 22 percent of Americans now identify themselves as Republicans. Many of 'em don't believe in majorty rule any more. They want the conservative minority to rule. Because they have the mistaken notion that god is on their side. --Jim Broede
