Yankl:
You are definitely NOT the only conservative republican on the list, but 
Haywire Mac is NOT one of them. (First of all, he lives in Canada, a country 
remarkable for its deficiency of Republicans.  OTOH, they have a party with 
the peculiar name of Progressive Conservative. Parse that one.) However, 
there have been several political flamewars in the past on this list, and one 
of them got way out of hand. It didn't take too long before a number of users 
objected. Eventually, calmer heads prevailed, and an OT list was established 
for that kind of stuff. (Sorry, I don't have the link, but I'm sure that 
someone will provide it.)

Hope you've had a better week than Rush.
