No, I meant the 20th C. It was sarcasm badly displayed... :>(((

Ray's little section of the GOP is stuck in the 19th C.with regard to social
and cultural values.

It's a large section... And you mean we're concerned about family values and
tradition and not all jumping into the boat of "change for chance sake"

They still believe that God sends natural disasters

In 1990, I was in a village in County Clare visiting a
elderly father of a friend of mine. Earlier that month, he had confronted
the town council *nancy boys* as he termed them, at his front door with a
rifle. Apparently, they were offering to install hot water and an indoor
bathroom in his house for free. *tundering hoors, he called them...:>))
