But Twisp why are you so adamant about using a term that has been on the news numerous times, and has been discussed on the news, concerning it's derogatory and vulgar meaning. I would have thought that you would want to "shun the very appearance of evil!"
What is your reasoning for calling a group of Independents, Republicans and Democrats a name that would carry any hint of such vulgar meaning?
