GOP Agendas

Regarding the threat by James Dobson and others of his right-wing Christian ilk to “walk out” on the Republican Party (May 19), I say good riddance. I think it’s no coincidence that in the last two presidential elections the GOP adopted the extreme agenda of the Christian right and lost those elections.

When will Republicans realize that these people represent only a small fraction of the American people? I’m hearing the same boring chorus from the Republicans again: new abortion curbs, school vouchers, protection of religious freedom (it’s in danger?) and flag-burning amendments. These are the same exact issues the GOP lost with in 1992 and 1996. Wake up!
