I understand that many people are racist, and in some ways, all people. The fact that High power Republicans have racist actions does not mean that you should disgrace the entire Republican party. I understand that you are looking for a change, but the change is not to be there. The change is to be in the youth. Do not criticize Republicans as a whole, for then you are becoming no different than they are. Pinpoint the problem. Exploit the problem as much as possible from the epicenter. Then you will succeed. Good Luck. Sincerely, Patriot-X"

The staff replies: Well we're disappointed in your take on what you think is our viewpoint and your failure to discern what the Republicans are doing to us vs. me telling the truth about it. I understand you might not want to accept the horrible truth about the criminal syndicate of anti-American thugs called the GOP. Still, if you reread the article you might understand all this better.

For example we don’t have any choice in the matter. As truth-tellers, we have to tell the truth about Republicans because by supporting their party, they support racism. They support illegal wars that killed 1700+ Americans and 100,000 Iraqis and counting while making us much poorer and much less safe. They support election fraud and illegal dirty tricks. They support wasteful spending and disastrous, unfair tax cuts mainly for the wealthiest 1% elite. They also support deadly environmental neglect and other horrors.

Does telling the truth about their crimes make us "no different than they are"? HELL NO! THINK about it. Is the rape victim who reports the rape "no different than" the rapist? Is that what you think? You see, we don't "disgrace the entire Republican party." That's not in our power. As you put it, "The fact that High power Republicans have racist actions" and commit other crimes with the enthusiastic support of the Republican Party disgraces the Republican Party. They're disgracing themselves.

Thanks for the good wishes, even if they're mixed in with mixed up and unfair criticism. We can tell you mean well, even if you're very confused about what I wrote and how horrible the Republican Party has become. Anyway, I already succeed in what I do. I don't need any luck, just honesty and common sense. We have enough of that to get us through. Thanks for writing!
