      Wrong.  (And, BTW... those so-called "evangelical Christian" 
to whom you refer **seldom** evangelize... and are the deluded
Christians and PSEUDO-Christians otherwise known -- more accur-
ately -- as the RRR cult.)   As I made clear in Usenet long after the
election, when I said **this** ---

          The Big CON:   "Religious Right" as Bush's "Base!"
                        Here are the Indisputable FACTS

    It has been well-documented by Nov. 2nd's accurate exit polls 
that only 17.16% of voters who went to the polls voted for Bush 
on the basis of so-called "moral" issues.  (Derived thusly:  22% 
voted prmarily of the basis of "values," and 78% of those who 
did so voted for Bush... for a total of 17.16% voters who voted 
for "values" from the standpoint of REPRESSING liberties. The
remainder voted for Kerry, having **defending** personal liberties 
as *their* most important issue.)  That means that 82.64% of those 
who voted for Bush -- FOR BUSH! -- not voters *overall* -- voted 
for him for OTHER reasons than "values" being foremost.  For 
them, if "values" were an issue for some, they took back burner
position to such RELEVANT issues and the war and the econ-
omy.  Thus, the control-freakish bigots  who voted for Bush were
**outnumbered** by those who voted for him based upon 
*relevant* issues by a ratio of about SIX to ONE.

    (Bush can consider himself very lucky that 82.84% of his 
voters actually were obtuse enough to vote for him based on ANY 
issues, considering what a proven dishonest and thug-employing
warmonger that he is.)  (It's like the "Mirror" in the UK correctly
asked:  "How can 59,[000,000+] Americans be so DUMB?")

    That's the KINDEST possible cut to the bigots.  But another 
aspect to the reality of all of this comes from factoring in the
voters who went for Kerry... virtually NONE of whom (obviously) 
did so in hopes of seeing the above repressive agendas being
supported.

    Let's use these total vote tallies (which each have probably
increased a bit since they were reported, but the percentages 
would not have changed)...

         Bush             59,459,785
         Kerry             55,949,407
         Nader                400,706

      ...and omit Nader, since I haven't seen exit polls regarding how
"moral"-issues-voters related to voting for him.  If I could include
those votes in this analysis, though, it probably would be even 
WORSE for the bigots, since Nader supporters tend to siphon off 
more would-be Democratic votes than Republican ones.  So that's 
a point worth remembering.

     17.16% of Bush's vote comes to 10,203,299, using the above
tallies.  0% of bigots voting for Kerry, of course, is zilch, numbers-
wise.  So -- without factoring in the lukewarm morons who were
eligible to vote, but *didn't*, that means that out of a total of
115,409,192 votes actually cast for Bush & Kerry on Nov. 2nd, 
only a mere 8.84% were cast by neocon/RRR cult-type "values" 
voters;  voters who had NO regard for some of out most important
personal liberties.

    *Then* it REALLY goes downhill fast for those pathetic bigots!

    Those who **didn't** vote, even though they were eligible to, no
dobt included some passive sympathizers to the RRR cult's agendas.
But, for however more of those there may have been, those bigots 
were of the HARMLESS variety that are of no concern at all
for fair-minded and egalitarian defenders of human rights.  Why?
Because for a person to pose ANY kind of threat to human rights, 
they must in SOME respect be *activists* in that manner.  

    Consider the fact that pretty much the EASIEST way to be an
activist in the most *minimal* degree these days is to VOTE.  Why?
Because recently it has become universally possible, in America, to
vote by mail, or ahead of time in person, or via absentee ballot. So
when a person doesn't even make THAT minimal an effort to 
support agendas that interest them, then they have proven their
passivity on these issues.  So the percentages of bigots among 
those voters doesn't matter, since **passive** bigots are not the 
sort of bigots that anyone needs to be concerned with.

    (For example -- there probably still are countless thousand, and
maybe even a million or more, closet racists living in America who
used to be segregationists, up until THEIR loathsome agenda 
became extinct, 40 years ago.  By being **closet** racists, they 
are harmless.  No one cares about a person's *thoughts.*  What 
counts is the way he ACTS toward others.

    I've been unable to find an exact figure for the percentage of
eligible voters that didn't get to the polls, but extrapolating from
the figures cited in this article...

http://usinfo.state.gov/dhr/Archive/2004/Oct/27-717452.html

   ...it must have been very close to 44%.  That gives us a total 
of around  206,087,824  total eligible voters:  both the ones who 
went to the polls, and the 90,678,632 or so who weren't sufficiently
motivated by any of the isues, either real or misperceived, to bother
to vote.

    Again -- there is no reason for pro-human rights activists to be
concerned about the eligible voters who didn't vote, because such
lukewarm people don't do human rights any harm, nor do they do 
the forces of bigotry any good.  Their like the neutrons in an atom;
they add mass/bulk/volume to the population, but when it comes 
to these issues, they do little or nothing else.

    So we have a total 90,678,632 lukewarm people who proved 
that bigoted agendas have such LITTLE importance to them that 
they couldn't even be bothered with voting for the candidate most
likely to have alligned himself with those issues.

    Of the U.S. electorate eligible to vote on Nov. 2, 2004, we thus
have a total of only 10,203,299 out of 206,087,824 who supported
bigoted agendas by voting for Buth with that being the foremost 
reason for casting that vote.  That's only a mere 5%.

    An "X" factor could be the 80 million or so NON-eligible voters
living in America.  Exit polls showed that the **younger** voters who
were old enough and who *did* vote tended to support Kerry by 
around 56% to 44%.  And the voters over 65 tended to support Bush 
in higher percentages thasn average, but there are fewer of those 
than of younger voters.  But there's no real way to come up with
figures for how NON-eligible voters **might** have voted if their  
viewpoints could be considered, so we're forced either to ignore 
them, or simply figure that they were fairly evenly split, as was the
case for the election... which went 51% bush, 49% Kerry, and less 
than 1% Nader.

     BOTTOM LINE:  Of the American electorate eligible to vote, only 
a mere 5% are active supporters of the RRR cult's heinous agendas
against human rights and personal liberties.  FIVE PERCENT.  That's 
a ratio of 20-1 of people who either support human rights actively or
for whom opposition to them is of a low enough priority that they
didn't even bother to support those loathsome agendas against safe 
& leagl abortion-upon-request and **equal** rights for gays by voting 
for Bush.

    VERY heartening!!

    There is NO mandate for Bush that can be ascribed to the 
Religious Radical Right, and it is ludicrous for him to consider those
hateful loons to be his "base."  Only 5% of America's eligible voters
supported him on that basis!

    19 out of every 20 of America's 206 million eligible voters either
are opposed to the loathsome agendas of the RRR cult, or are 
not sufficiently interested in them to even minimally support them!

    Out of that, the only bad news is this:  A glass of drinking water
that's comprised of 5% arsenic would be deadly poisonous.  And 
that is pecisely the danger currently posed to personal freedom in
America by the hateful and control-freakish RRR cult as it exists
today.

    More than ever before, thinking, sensible, and egalitarian
Americans need to work HARD to OPPOSE the loathsome RRR 
cult on all fronts, and **remove** that poisonous threat to out
personal liberties.  STARTING with **vigorous** and vocal opposition
to any Anti-Choice/anti-liberties U.S. Supreme court nominees.

    We CAN make America a Bigotry-Free Zone.  The arsenic CAN 
be filtered out!  Especially when 95% of the population is comprised
of human rights activists and apathetic people who pose no oppo-
sition to doing that.

    And we MUST do so.  Starting today!!!
