Now there's a well-reasoned, intelligent response, and a good example of how intolerance loses elections.

BTW, why is it ok to insult the Democratic Party by referring to it as the "democrat" party. Would you call your neighbor by a name which is not his? If your name is Rick, is it acceptabnle to just call you Dick, over and over? Seems pretty infantile to me. Started by Mr Gingrich or Mr DeLay- two apragons of decency in the political arena I believe, and followed on quickly by dittoheads. Hmmmm. May be that's why they call themselves dittoheads.
