Ma'am; .. The republican voters I know, are, for the most part, moral, and they vote for the republican party candidates primarily on moral issues... For the party; economy and protection of wealth is the larger concern, but they know the common morality is the deciding issue for the base... The party has the morality of words... The people have the morality of deeds... And it is a shame... I am an honest to God moralist... I don't just accept the me good you bad morality that expects the flag and neighbors in heaven; but looks to the underlying morality that does not come out of a church, and yet keeps the faith. I think, if the skin deep morality of the republican voters were examined, it would be shown to be 90% common sense, and ten percent mean spirit... If they just took the common sense part of their morality, to the fair they would find it is just like the common sense morality of the liberals... No morality works when communities are destroyed... It is not morality which supports communities, but communities that ARE morality... No one belongs to a community in fact until they accept the community morality... So let me ask... What is our morality??? What is our universal American morality so we can decide what we will accept??? I mean, it is one thing to learn the morality of your church and your community, but another thing to think without discussion or question that your morality should be accepted...There never was a community without a common morality; but our economy is not moral, and our environmental and foreign policy is not moral, so anyone expecting me to accept a whole rash of un thought out morality has a screw loose... People follow people... If you believe some one is a moral leader, follow them to a more perfect morality... That does not mean you are relieved of the need for making the moral argument to others because morality is accepted, and is not imposed... Coersion in the cause of morality is immoral... And there is nothing in liberal morality preventing anyone from living a moral life...But that is the mean spirit of the moral right... They are blind to the immorality of their party, and they think they may make republicanism moral with their morality, and they do not... They do not see all the immorality behind the republican party... That makes them blind; but it does not make them moral... And their blindness and uncritical acceptance of republican morality does not endear them to their fellow Americans, and instead, cuts them off from any opportunity to make their point...So the problem as I see it is this... Law and economic forces work to destroy small communities, even down to the level of the family, and we have no universal morality we can all find acceptible to replace the small community morality we leave behind... The individual, which is the same as an outlaw in days past is cut loose from moral anchors... Thanks...Sweeney
