- I cannot understand how people today still don't know that there was a fundamental shift in ideologies between the two parties back in the 1960's and 70's. The Republican party of Lincoln was moderate if not progressive in it's views while the Democratic party was very conservative.

- Larry - that is the most convoluted thing I've ever read and I don't think you have the first clue of true Christianity. If Jesus were alive today he would NOT be a Republican. You might want to go and read about the early church and you will see that it was run as a communistic entity.

United Airlines still leaving passengers on hold
Tue Mar 27, 2012
