Thanks for actually replying.
Yes, my point (such as it was) is that wedge issues distract from the real "supra-partisan" issues that affect citizens across party lines, like the immunity of bankers from prosecution, how much of a drain military expenditures are on the economy (and therefor quality of life) in the US, the TSA, US foreign policy as a stifle on travel opportunities, and so on.
Oh, but let's talk about some religious people laying a turd of morality on the front page of every newspaper. Birth-control in church insurance? Such a pressing issue!
