Eventually, the people of the USA will begin to
understand threat the conservative movement that Paul Weyrich started is destroying the RepubliCON party because of the extremist views held by the
conservative movement.
In the 2012 primary, conservatives won back the state Senate. Then-state Senate President Steve Morris (R-Hugoton), the leader of moderate Republicans who lost his own primary, told The Huffington Post at the time that Brownback and others wanted to create an "ultraconservativ eutopia" in Kansas.
The conservatives of today are the extremists of the GOP –
they are the WRONG part of the right.
More and more people are starting to recognize that organizations
like the extremist ultra-conservative American Legislative Exchange Council do
not speak for the moderates in this country.
We must repeatedly denounce right-wing extremist organizations
like ALEC – for the extremist groups that they are – and bring to light the
extremism of ALEC members. While ALEC members may believe that their extremist views are "mainstream" because of the continual reinforcement they receive from ALEC and ALEC literature; they are not mainstream - they are extremists.

This will not help the farmers.”Republicans in Huelskamp's rural district took pains to distance themselves.State Rep. J.R.
