        Matt, if it wasn't for you and @SykesCharlie I would be very disillusioned with the Conservative movement. Right now, as a person whose favorite conservative book was Whitaker Chambers 'Witness,' I am only disheartened.

        Chambers said he was leaving the winning side for the losing side, but it was better to die on the losing side than to die under Communism. I'm not comparing anyone to Communists. But I feel the same dichotomy in the Republican Party right now.

        I read this book every Christmas to New Year for 10 years. This line always got me: He found out his wife was pregnant: “Reason, the agony of my family, the Communist Party and its theories, the wars and revolutions of the twentieth century, crumbled at the touch of the child.”

        Bannon & Moore, born & bred Democrats. Moore switched out of expediency to GOP at age 45. Bannon now calles himself "a Leninist"

        Romney had to know Bannon was going to bight back when he made a public statement.. You discredit urself when u state the fact that Romney engaged first and Bannon was in the Navy as after thoughts.. Regards to RM accusations, what about due process? Guilty until proven innocent?
