This is the most powerful Republican in the United States Government. The one other Republicans CHOSE.

I also want to point out that this came from the NRCC, the primary organization responsible for electing Republicans to congress. Think about that for a moment. These are the ideals and goals held by the organization wanting to get Republicans into our government. And if you look deeper, that also shows us what the NRCC thinks is the driving force behind the voters they are targeting.

It's been fairly obvious over the past 5 or so years what kind of people we're dealing with on the other side of aisle. Those who vote for Republicans have either demonstrated their commitment to these ideas, or have decided that that kind of commitment isn't a deal breaker. Either way, it's not possible to change their mind. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. The ONLY way to fight this, is to vote, and convince others to vote, in such overwhelming numbers that it shows everybody that those ideas need to stay in the distant past. Eventually the batshit insane arm of the Republican party will die out, once their realize how much of a losing strategy it is.
