A recognizable pattern is emerging in Republican Party behavior, and it’s not pretty.  Cannibalism might be a fair characterization to describe the goings on in Republican circles, both inside Congressional halls and in the country at large.  It appears that a major battle has been initiated by right-wing conservatives for control of the party.  The ultimate goal is to create a society characterized by limited government, individual liberty and Biblical morality.  The conservative Republicans maintain such a society was envisioned by the Founders, and thus its re-establishment is a desirable goal.  In the fight for control of the party, moderate and liberal Republican influence is being eliminated, often ruthlessly.
