Will the Phoebus supporters please grow up

Bill Hayden is the "administrator" of the Gail Phoebus campaign on Facebook.  He and his co-administrator post some pretty idiotic stuff.  Like the faces of prominent Sussex County Republicans photo-shopped onto vaginas or an aerial view of what he thought was the house of a political opponent with the words "target acquired" underneath.  It turned out to be the wrong house and the home of an innocent family with children.

And posting pictures of your handguns on Facebook should not be done if you are going to use the same page to threaten people.  Also, it is not a good idea to claim to have handed out Halloween candy to children from a candy bowl stuffed with automatic magazines and Glock handguns.  This is stupid and it does your cause no good.

In your inarticulate ramblings, you claim to be "conservatives" -- well then act like traditional conservatives and not like juvenile delinquents.  Conservatives don't post pornography, they don't wave their guns around (even metaphorically on Facebook), and they don't write like members of the cast of Deliverance. 

Grow up!  And part of that growing up is coming to terms with some basic facts of life.  First, you or your candidate or your Tea Party are not the center of the universe.  You do not get to decide who is conservative or not, or who is Republican or not.   There are many people -- adult people -- who have come before you.  The world didn't begin yesterday, when you decided to show up and vote.

Second, just because you have a personal dislike for elected Republicans like Senator Steve Oroho and Assemblyman Parker Space, that doesn't make them "liberals".  It doesn't work that way.  They have the best pro-Second Amendment, Pro-Life, and consistent conservative voting records in Trenton.  And that is just how it is.

Third, just because you are loud, sport a bull neck, and talk about all your guns, it doesn't mean that you can intimidate anyone into ignoring the actual VOTING RECORDS of these conservatives.  When a Tea Party group ignores a conservative voting record, that doesn't make the conservative a liberal, it means the Tea Party group is liberal or ignorant or both. 

 In fact, it is your candidate who is being advised by the only genuine liberal on the scene -- a guy who was mentored by that Bill Ayers-loving Marxist William Kunstler, who lobbied Phoebus to vote pro-abortion, and who supported Barack Obama.  Here, check it out...

If you want to have an adult, non-pornographic, rational discussion about policy issues, I'm sure the people whose faces you have photo-shopped onto vaginas will put that aside, consider the source, and then have a constructive discussion with you.  They are adults.  That's what adults do.  You should try it sometime.
