I am fairly moderate, and have voted Repub in the past, so I know the majority of Republicans are good solid working people. But the adolescent behavior toward Obama is embarrassing to your party. These folks are supposed to be our leaders and representatives and they are making these Beavis & Butthead comments (hehhehehe .. his middle name is Hussein.. hehehe) and connections that even Karl Rove thinks is a bad idea. The general public (outside the sphere of Rush Limbaugh) does not find this constructive to the political dialog. It is really pathetic to see Regans party (whom I disagreed with, but respected) reduced to bigotry toward race, religion and sex. For the good of national dialog, I implore you to begin voting these clowns out of power and returning politics to a legitimate discussion amongst adults with differing views. Thank you for your time!
