Giving Up on God

No, no. Not me personally.

But that's what Kathleen Parker, a Washington Post columnist, says the GOP must do.

To be more specific, the evangelical, right-wing, oogedy-boogedy branch of the GOP is what ails the erstwhile conservative party and will continue to afflict and marginalize its constituents if reckoning doesn't soon cometh.

Simply put: Armband religion is killing the Republican Party. And, the truth -- as long as we're setting ourselves free -- is that if one were to eavesdrop on private conversations among the party intelligentsia, one would hear precisely that.

The choir has become absurdly off-key, and many Republicans know it.


At this point, I should mention Parker is a conservative columnist who writes for National Review.

I have actually been saying this since before the election...We shouldn't give up all of our conservative values, but we can't force them on tohers either...
