Sorry, Wayne Allyn Root, but Gov. Brian Sandoval and Sen. Dean Heller represent all of Nevada

Once again Wayne Allyn Root shows he simply does not understand how government works (“Why are Heller, Sandoval abandoning GOP principles?” Thursday Review-Journal). He rails on and on about how Gov. Brian Sandoval and Sen. Dean Heller are not real Republicans because they don’t toe the party line as Mr. Root sees it — in other words, only representing conservatives and the conservative agenda.

Sorry, Mr. Root, but Gov. Sandoval and Sen. Heller represent the entire state of Nevada, not just the GOP. In case you forgot, Nevada is not a red state anymore. Perhaps if you try to understand that very simple premise, you can wake up, move on and put your hatred of President Barack Obama in the past. Please feel free to leave Nevada and find a nice, safe space where you and your conservative beliefs can lead a full, happy life.

And people such as Mr. Root call Democrats the snowflakes. Ha!

LETTER: Deciphering progressive jargon

I noticed recently that euphemisms are commonly used by progressives in order to make the agenda they support seem less harsh or unpleasant.
