Guess what - I call "FOUL".

Your points are well taken, but surely you'll admit that the people currently in power in your party do not share your views on the issues you brought up. As unforutnate as it may be the republican ideals you believe in are not the ones being pushed by the ones in control of your party.
The post that I was responding to was one which is throwing its full support behind the current administration - also republicans - and this is an administration that you yourself disagree with.
So no, my comments were not directed at you.
And for what it's worth, your politics are far more palatable to me than those of many others, republican AND democrat.
