with those who espouse the values of ISIS and other extremists? For that matter are the republicans who support this science denying philosophy secret members of a alternative religion? If you think about it ISIS Denys history by destroying stuff, clearly a republican occupation. ISIS thinks all non believers should be off' d in the most reprehensible manner possible. Republicans are always talking tough, at least talking tough about sending other peoples kids off to kill and die for 'them'.
