About AlphaPatriot

In real life, AlphaPatriot is Darrell Carden.

The views presented on this site in no way reflects those of my employer, family, friends, acquaintances or distant cousins as these generally fall into three categories: the smart ones that agree with me, those that tolerate me because of my wit, charm, great intellect and modesty, and those who think that I'm a raving wingnut who's one Kennedy away from going medieval on the next vegan moonbat that barks.

Two Americas, Ideologically Speaking

A fascinating observation from Marvin Olasky about how ideologicaly split the parties have become:
(From 1972 to 2002, the average Republican in the House of Representative jumped from voting 63 percent conservative to 91 percent, according to the American Conservative Union, while the average Democrat's score dropped from 32 percent to 13 percent.)

And yet, be careful what you ask for. The problem with two differentiated parties (although still not as differentiated as some Christian conservatives would like) is that when a governor or president is a scoundrel, voters ideologically aligned with him don't have a good choice. They either have to vote for a person without character or for someone personally right but ideologically wrong.

Actually, I'm pleased to support this president. He is not nearly Reganesque as I would want him to be, but hey -- we are at war and I don't know of anyone I trust more to protect the future of my granddaughter.
