Democrats on drugs

The only way that would be true is if Democrats were outnumbered by Republicans in the over forty set. There's no evidence of it.

Besides, Churchill never actually said that.

A closet democrat is an individual that publicly presents his views and lifestyle as a conservative but in hiding he lives as a democrat with a liberal lifestyle.

Anyway, what makes what those two characters did cause them to be closet democrats? In my book they are republicans that did embarrassing things. Republicans do bad things? Democrats do bad things.

A closet democrat is an individual that publicly presents his views and lifestyle as a conservative but in hiding he lives as a democrat with a liberal lifestyle.

Dems?

The Dem leadership is even more pro-prohibition than Republicans.

My personal view is that marijuana should remain illegal in public. My own personal view is that if an individual wishes to do any drug or even shoot battery acid in their veins he should be allowed to do so in private. Nobody has the right to interfer with the rest of us therefore there should be nothing in their bloodstream when they are in public. I should not have to step over or walk around a heroin addict passed out on the sidewalk much less face some druggie in an automobile.

The good thing about drugs is that they get rid of a lot of useless trash. The bad thing is that they take a lot of good hardworking people with them. Drugs are an expense to all of us.

My reason for posting this is that whenever drugs are spoke of the liberal democrats always seem to be a spokesperson for them. How many times have you heard some liberal say "marijuana expands my mind"? Drugs are merely an escape from a depressed life that is difficult for that person to live in. Democrats are always depressed about everything. Conservatives are much more satisfied with their lives and future and for the most part are not trying to numb their mind.

My question still stands. Does the democrat use drugs because of his views or is he a democrat because he uses drugs?

Liberals are far more likely to create laws against drug use than conservatives. Afterall, liberals advocate more laws to protect everyone.

THIS conservative would much rather the government butt out of our personal indulgences that aren't harming anyone else.

Liberal views in and of themselves do not require drug use.

Is it so hard to conceive that one might be a Democrat because of their drug use? After all, it is the issues that are important to us that define which party we choose to support based on which side of issues each party claims to represent.
