I would even go further and say: please know that while your reasons and attacks on Republican policies and ideals are likely valid. There ARE valid reasons underlying most major Republican ideals too. Ones that you are mostly blind to (in precisely the same way the Republican's discount central values from the other side.)
We don't think we are missing anything... it is just the other guys. and we are wrong about that. (I don't mean to make a full symmetry here, just to know it really goes both ways)
