What Does the Democratic Party Stand For?

[The Rabbi]

The GOP stands for smaller government, lower taxes, pro business, generally socially conservative policies. Most people would agree on that even if they dont always vote that way.
What does the Democratic Party stand for? THey seem to stand for class warfare, tribal identification, and free shit.
How can they possibly hope to win with such divisive stands, and after such a record of failure?

Pop Culture. That's it.

If it is not 'happenin now' they aren't interested. Think about it. The vast majority of dims in here can't relate to anything that happened before they were born......

To them, this world was created for their own personal pleasure.

It's quite a shock when they finally realize that the world will continue on with or without them and they're just losers stuck in a fantasy

Its true that Democrats seem stuck on pop culture and cannot separate an important job like President from Contestant on Dancing WIth the Stars.
But that isnt a platform, that's a description. What do they want?

It would be my great pleasure if another viable party could be shown.
last.

I'd appreciate it if the OP could establish some support for the claim that the GOP is actually for smaller government. Something other than just saying that they are for smaller government.

Thanks.

Yep!

 

[LoneLaugher]

One of the two major parties is more likely to institute campaign finance reform with limits on contributions and greater transparency.

If you are concerned about money corrupting politics, you ought to consider that when casting your vote.

Democrats believe in sharing public wealth. Fascist believe public wealth should be given to corporations. Republicans make it easy for the fascist by denying public wealth exist.

You're answering a lie.

Republicans don't like Politics and we don't like Government. We especially don't like Government.

That point is clear to anyone that knows anything about the Founding of this Great Country.

Shortly after our Revolution, the French had theirs...... It was the most cataclysmic event in the History of Western Civilization. Not our Revolution -- Theirs.

It promoted Government as the answer to all the problems of the proletariat and working people everywhere.

From the French Revolution sprang socialism, Fascism, communism, Nazism, democratic socialism, et cetera ad nauseam. Not to mention several hundred million murdered in their names

From our Revolution sprung -- Us. That's about it. Nobody else has ever adapted our way of governing...... Or more accurately -- LACK of governing.

Our way of life demands an almost invisible government.

Republicans, at least on the surface, embrace smaller government. dimocrap filth believe that government is the answer to all their problems.

ALL of them. There is NO part of life (outside the bedroom) that dimocrap filth don't want government intrusion.

Period.

So the best and smartest Republicans go into the non-government world. They keep this Country running. They run the Farms that feed us, they run the businesses that employ and sustain us and they run the Military that protects us.

dimocrap filth go into government. Or one of its many diseased, tentacled arms -- the DISGUSTING FILTH in the LSM, Academia, etc

Republicans get into politics for one reason..... To stop dimocrap filth from fucking up the greatest experiment in the history of Man///// The United States of America.

And without us...... Trust me, dimocrap filth WILL turn us into another Greece or Italy.... Except not as well off. Believe it.

Are there some Republicans that are in it for personal gain? Sure. But they are a tiny minority and they get run when we discover them.

I disagree with your assessment

It's not a troll thread, because I don't comprehend what they stand for anymore, Hillary is running around saying she is poor, yet making millions, Obama is running around fighting Iran yet helping them in Iraq ? Obama talking about income inequality yet his policies blew it's away?

Yea, I want to know what democrats stand for?

 

[Edgetho]

Democrats believe in sharing public wealth. Fascist believe public wealth should be given to corporations. Republicans make it easy for the fascist by denying public wealth exist.

The stupidity of dimocraps never ceases to amaze.

Fascism is a coalition of Big Government and Big Business...... With Government as the lead dog

Tell me how that resembles ANYTHING Republicans believe in?

You really are a stupid human being.

[Libertarians] are not defenders of capitalism

I’d rather vote for Bob Hope, the Marx Brothers, or Jerry Lewis [than a candidate from the Libertarian Party].

All kinds of people today call themselves “libertarians,” especially something calling itself the New Right, which consists of hippies, except that they’re anarchists instead of collectivists. But of course, anarchists are collectivists. Capitalism is the one system that requires absolute objective law, yet they want to combine capitalism and anarchism. That is worse than anything the New Left has proposed. It’s a mockery of philosophy and ideology. They sling slogans and try to ride on two bandwagons. They want to be hippies, but don’t want to preach collectivism, because those jobs are already taken. But anarchism is a logical outgrowth of the anti-intellectual side of collectivism. I could deal with a Marxist with a greater chance of reaching some kind of understanding, and with much greater respect. The anarchist is the scum of the intellectual world of the left, which has given them up. So the right picks up another leftist discard. That’s the Libertarian movement.

For the record, I shall repeat what I have said many times before: I do not join or endorse any political group or movement. More specifically, I disapprove of, disagree with, and have no connection with, the latest aberration of some conservatives, the so-called “hippies of the right,” who attempt to snare the younger or more careless ones of my readers by claiming simultanteously to be followers of my philosophy and advocates of anarchism. Anyone offering such a combination confesses his inability to understand either. Anarchism is the most irrational, anti-intellectual notion ever spun by the concrete-bound, context-dropping, whim-worshiping fringe of the collectivist movement, where it properly belongs.

Above all, do not join the wrong ideological groups or movements, in order to “do something.” By “ideological” (in this context), I mean groups or movements proclaiming some vaguely generalized, undefined (and, usually, contradictory) political goals. (E.g., the Conservative Party, which subordinates reason to faith, and substitutes theocracy for capitalism; or the “libertarian” hippies, who subordinate reason to whims, and substitute anarchism for capitalism.) To join such groups means to reverse the philosophical hierarchy and to sell out fundamental principles for the sake of some superficial political action which is bound to fail. It means that you help the defeat of your ideas and the victory of your enemies. (For a discussion of the reasons, see “The Anatomy of Compromise” in my book Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal.)

First step. Stop watching and reading whatever news and info sources that you are currently watching and reading.

Yeah. Okay. SO if the Republican Party is for "Smaller Government", then how come the last four Cabinet Level Departments (Intelligence, Homeland Security, Environment and Veteran's Affairs) were created on Republican watches?

If the Republicans are for social conservative policies, why is it they haven't banned abortion yet? Or put prayer back in schools? Or any of the other things you promise the Rubes?

What does the Democratic Party stand for? THey seem to stand for class warfare, tribal identification, and free shit.

Only "Class Warfare" I've seen is the 30 year attempt by big business to roll back the Middle Class.

How can they possibly hope to win with such divisive stands, and after such a record of failure?

Five of the last six Recessions and that Last Three Wars were on Republican Watches. That's failure.

My Parents used to say when I was growing up, "Democrats bring us Wars, Republicans Bring us Recessions." Now the Bush Crime Family brings us both, and you are totally good with that as long as no one is getting a blow job in the White House
