"I am a moderate – a radical moderate. I believe profoundly in the ultimate value of human dignity and e******y. I therefore believe as well in such essential contributions to these ends as fairness, tolerance, and mutual respect. In seeking to be fair, tolerant, and respectful I need to call upon all the empathy, understanding, rationality, skepticism, balance, and objectivity I can muster.” ― Elliot Richardson, Reflections of a Radical Moderate

By my definition these people are better referred to as common sense conservatives, but now we have to hide that fact and what we think for fear of threats from the "progressives" out there.

I'm a radical Redneck.
And I trust no one.
Especially those who smile in my face while claiming to be champions of human dignity and e******y.
I distance myself from Goobers who brag about being virtuous and keep a close eye on Poindexters who swear to be progenitors of fairness, tolerance, respect and empathy.
I confess that I am no more than a sinner and I am in constant need of God's forgiveness.

Mr. & Mrs. Cox, and Mr. & Mrs. Bunker did.
Of course, there was Archie of Archie Comics fame and his gang of Betty, Veronica, Reggie & Jughead.

That's very nice Slatt. What do
you believe? You asked me that when you visited me.

That's been true for a long time. But we are in a time an unusual time. Call it a crucible. I'm talking do or die. It's happened over and over.
People can't change without God and most are too proud to believe
