Republicans throw out their trash!

Sincerely,
Senator David "Diapers" Vitter (R-LA)

 

[Jarhead]

women are individuals just like men.

Some lie and some dont.


Are you suggesting they should just be believed no matter what the evidence is because of female body parts?

I agree with you TM.

But I must ask...why are you so open about how men and women are the same, and individuals, but when it comes to party affiliation, the dems are all bright ethical and honest while the republicans are all idiots, amoral and liars?

Do you not see how partisan that comes across?

 

[Agit8r]

Is this about Julian Assange?

if not, wtf are you talking about?

 

[TheLonelySquire]

I think that anyone on either side is a dirtbag for doing this, regardless of how others in their party defends them. However, since conservatives generally hold themselves to a higher moral standard, it appears far worse when they do this type of thing. Use Mark Sanford as an example of this. Looks way worse for him than it did for scum-of-the-earth car salesman John Edwards.

Cons are the ones who hold themselves to a higher standard and quite often fail.

In a country with 50% divorce rates I think they are being unrealisitic to pretend politicains are not mere humans.

 

[Soggy in NOLA]

That s one thing the left is very good at... they behave very monolithically. They don't waver form the party line, no matter how absurd.

Conservatives however, don't tend to move in is such a cohesive manner; we're more individualists.. hence the Tea Party movement, the far right, the Libertarians, etc.

Only until you leave their apartment in the morning. Then all bets are off.

Why should it matter how we act. We were born from pond scum evolved from
apes. The fact that we stopped eating our poo and masturbating in public is all we should really hope for and some of us have achieved that, now all we have to do is help the democrats learn what toilet paper is used for.

Actuallly, it is those with the most conservative values (such as myself) that are unrealistic. We place much importance on certain values, that are quite difficult to maintain.

Such is why I have become a little more moderate as it pertains to certain social issues.

We have only acheived it becuase we are told it is socially unacceptabel.
Give me the green light and I will gladly masturbate in public.

 

[Truthmatters]

That is what I said jarhead, its the cons who are unrealistic.

Yes you did. My error.

 

[Newby]

So, is it better to set moral standards for oneself and society, or to have none so that when you fall from grace no one can point a finger?

 

[blastoff]

When ever someone on the left is accused of Rape or sexual misconduct the liberals always defend them? Make disparaging remarks about the charges and generally claim nothing important happened?

Of course if a Republican even smiles at a pretty girl those same people are all hot to prosecute for something, anything.

Oh, c'mon now! Next thing you know you'll be telling me a married Dimocrat president would lie to the world - wagging his finger for emphasis - about having an ongoing sexual relationship in the White House with a young staff intern, get busted for it when it became known presidential spew was still on a dress she wore, and the Jackass Party would defend him to the hilt rather than insist he take a hike. Some things are just beyond the realm of possibility IMO.

I say strive for the best. Falling short does not mean failure or hypocrisy...it means continue trying.

 

[Truthmatters]

How about moral standards that dont include the doctrine of Your religion.

I want my politicians to be honest about policy and vote with the best interests of their constituients.

If you cant meet your own religions tennets then dont expect everyone else who doesnt share your religion to meet them.

That trickles down to the basic premise of

"run for office based on an honest platform"

Sadly, very few politicans on both sides of the aisle do so.

 

[Truthmatters]

The ones that do are hounded out

 

[Common Sense]

the left is generally more accepting of martial missteps. (like clinton and edwards for example) its typically the right who decry infidelity in any form because it taints the "idea" of marriage. hence why the right also wants to stop gays from getting married. people are human, and people with power think they are untouchable. not just those in public office, but those in the private sector as well. the difference is, in the private sector, there isnt near the press because we dont typically care of the head of a major corporation has an affair.
