The "death" of the Republican Party will "save" America.

[Shelzin]

You don't make enough sense to carry on a convo.

*shrugs* Ok.

 

[M.D. Rawlings]

The thread title should read, 'The death of both Parties will save America.'

That's a naive thought. Go ahead and destroy both parties, guess what will happen. The people that supported those parties will prop up people just like them and we'll be right back where we started. It's the same as RDean's idiotic op. Destroying the GOP won't do a damn thing. Conservative minded people will still exist and will just make another party exactly like the GOP.

The only thing that can save this country is for the american people to start caring more about their country than they do partisan politics. The GOP is giving a prime example of this right now. It doesn't matter how bad their nominee would be for the country, all they care about is partisan politics and beating the opposition party. Granted, democrats are no better, but right now it's the GOP displaying this idiocy.

Don't agree with the second paragraph, but the first is astute. I believe Romney will make a good president. I believe him to be a good man. He's not my first choice, but I'm sure as hell not going to support Obama the failed Messianic One. To say that all the GOP cares about is partisan politics and beating the opposition is meaningless, really. Meaningless! Bizarre even. There is nothing inherently bad about partisan politics; they just are. What matters is the nature of the philosophy behind those politics. And beating the opposition is the whole point of the democratic process, defeating the policies and programs you believe to be bad for the country and your interests.

What are talking about? What do you mean? Right now it is the GOP displaying this idiocy?! You make no sense at all here.

LOL!

Euro-style socialism ain't it. It's an utter disaster and completely unsustainable.

Or didn't they teach you that in Commie Ass-Sucking History school?

No, they wouldn't, would they?

You seem to have an awful fascination with gay sex, dude.

It seems to me that guys who need to graphically describe gay sex are probably fantasizing about it...

It's kind of like the vegetarian who can't stop talking about sex.

Incidently, Europe has a higher standard of living than we do.

 

[koshergrl]

Sure they do.

 

[JoeB131]

Sure they do.

Been there a bunch of times. Also been to Canada...

Never saw the kind of poverty you see here.

 

[squeeze berry]

Sure it is. It has been that way historically. The reason the Dems claim otherwise is to divert from the fact that they are truly the party of racism and bigotry.

50 years ago.

Today republicans maintain that tradition of discrimination and exclusion, when conservatives abandoned the democratic party and climbed in bed with the GOP.

why do you hate white people?

 

[koshergrl]

Sure they do.

Been there a bunch of times. Also been to Canada...

Oh, well that cinches it, then. You didn't see poor people on your visits, therefore they must not exist.

I suspect you don't really "see" about 2/3 of the things that pass right in front of your nose.

Why drive buses with delegates around in circles while a vote is going on then? Obviously it was going to fail with those people there.

I mean the mic was in a different place than where the chair was residing... But it sounded like the "no's" won that. I'm willing stipulate that maybe it was different where he was though. I don't have a problem with that.

But with ... What was it? Three bus loads of people not there when the vote happened... Yeah... I'm sorry. Evidence does not support your stance that they are about any minority anymore.

What are you yammering about?

Evidence does of course support my "stance". Because it isn't a stance, it's a fact...Republicans HISTORICALLY have supported minorities because they have HISTORICALLY supported equality.

‘Historically,’ as in the past, as in not in current practice today.

That position was abandoned decades ago to accommodate social conservatives and others on the far right; today the GOP exhibits hostility toward immigration and the civil liberties of same-sex couples.

well, you see things that aren't there at all.. like Angels and Magic Sky Pixies...

 

[koshergrl]

Not at all.

 

[koshergrl]

So do you want to make it about religion now?

For the record, I'd like to point out that someone else brought up dead children, then chastised me for talking about abortion; now this loon has brought religion into the thread, and will claim that I'm the one inordinately obsessed with religion.

Like I said, everything they try to accuse us of, they are guilty of themselves.

Oh, quite the contrary.. it's always about religion.

Tell me true, if Romney got up and said tomorrow- "Hey, we are going to totally drop the abortion plank, support Gay marriage, and uphold the complete and utter separation of Church and state", would you be supporting what his real goal is, which is just to make the rich richer at the expense of the rest of us?

Of course not.

The GOP long ago lost connection with the rest of us and is kept afloat by religious idiots who want to impose their beliefs on everyone else.

Then move your lazy ass there.

Oh, wait, that's right -- you're too much a coward to do anything. You'd rather sit at home, ***** on the internet, and wait for someone else to make the changes you demand.

Typical leftist.

 

[daveman]

Sure they do.

Remember, folks -- Joe's personal experience and his insular worldview define the rest of the universe.

If he didn't see it, it didn't happen.

Or I can just vote for change...

You don't think talkign on the internet changes the conversation? Then why do you do it?

good post but the religious-types are also running interference for the ultra-rich (though they are unaware of it), thats why they are tolerated/included in the GObP

Macaroni.

Imbecile.

 

[koshergrl]

And so the thread dies. Romney has never moved to force religion upon anybody.

Progressive nutjobs. Hopefully they will get another (besides AIDS, obviously that isn't going to do the trick) fatal disease that kills progressives only and we will be released from their culture of death.
