The Whine Of The Never Satisfied
Religious Right Complains Because GOP Isn’t Theocratic Enough
Every couple of years, a story surfaces in the media about Religious Right leaders and their latest whine-fest. The script goes like this: They’re not happy because they still haven’t gotten everything they want.
Mind you, this is a movement that has the Republican Party more or less in a headlock. Over the years, its leaders have systematically driven every moderate from the party’s national leadership. No serious Republican presidential contender can hope for success without coming to some accommodation with the Religious Right. Movement activists are an influential, if not controlling, force in many state branches of the GOP.
Yet its leaders still are not happy.
The latest version of the Religious Right mope-a-thon comes courtesy of The Washington Post, which on Sunday ran a story headlined “Some evangelicals in Republican Party are feeling left out, see no standard-bearer.”
