I go to church every Sunday, send my kids to Catholic school, but support same sex marriage, abhor wearing religion on your sleeve and freedom of Islam to practice without interference in America.
What exactly is a "churcher"?
Also a registered "Nonaffiliated" as of 2008 when "Indepentant" became a real political party in Maryland.
Not much time before I hit the road but I will try. I thought Evangelical would explain it. By "Churcher" I mean the type of people or groups that not only want me to behave like them, believe like them and worship who they do but will also go asa far as trying to pass laws to force me to. Look, I don't give a F U C K who or what you worship, just stop trying to legislate me into believing the same. W/O looking them up we have had right wing churchers trying to pass laws that outlaw Fetus's from being made into food, laws that make it legal to kill a Dr if he has performed an abortion, Utah just banned Happy Hour, bans on Gay everything, laws banning certain religious groups from praying, laws that ban free speech, laws against every and anything they can think of to force people to act the same as they do. That is who I mean by Churchers. These types seem to have taken over the debates of and this party.
In other words, Republicans...

Answer:
You're hanging your hat on Pete Stark? Gee, the Dems have a 1-0 lead.
And that 1-0 lead is like a mountain for the R party. :thumb:
