What Does the Democratic Party Stand For?

[deltex1]

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?

They stand ...with their back bent and legs spread.

 

[The Rabbi]

No. I acknowledge that many people's perception of the Democratic Party is completely delusional.

The fact that probably most people associate the Democratic Party with socialism, race baiting, class warfare, and free shit means that people are delusional? Seriously?

Lets see if we can get the Rabbi to back up his assertion that "most people" associate the Democratic Party with socialism, race baiting, class warfare and free shit

Ready?

Run away now Rabbi...run away

Who swept the midterm elections, fool? Now let's see you spin and deflect and talk about gerrymandering and low voter turnout.
You're so predictable. I could set my watch to you if my watch measured stupidity.

But....but......2014 elections

You were challenged to back up your assertion

"The fact that probably most people associate the Democratic Party with socialism, race baiting, class warfare, and free shit"

So you failed once....want to show the nice people on USMB how you fail again?

He only considers Fox News viewers and other "goodthinkers" as people.

Wow, sometimes I think I'm a prophet.

It was a logical conclusion based on what you said about the belief of "most people"

No it was a predictable (and predicted) response from the pathetic lame brains that constitute leftists on this board. I was writing that post when you submitted yours. But I anticipated it completely.

IF any of that were true, I would vote Republican.

Sadly, it isn't true

The fascist democrats stand for a totalitarian state and zero civil rights. All things are property of the state - including the people.

Ribeye starts a troll thread. How odd.

And attracts an assclown troll....

As I indicated, they stand for that. They dont always/seldom deliver on it.

Democratic Party stands for:

-The right sized government to do what "We the People" want done
-A tax structure that provides adequate revenue and places the burden on those most able to bear it
- A balance between the interests of business and labor
- Social Programs that help those who need helping

I can buy 3 out of 4 of those points.

I have trouble with "- A balance between the interests of business and labor". The trade policies of Bill Clinton and Obama destroy that balance.

The New Democrats don't have much regard for labor.

Under Bush and the GOP millions of jobs were moved to China and over 40,000 factories closed. Republicans call that "balance".

See post 48.

And now they're moving at an even faster rate because of a tax climate made worse by The Obama

Notice that the following article is from 2014 AND from the CHICAGO Tribune:
Middle class will disappear if U.S. corporations move headquarters overseas - tribunedigital-chicagotribune


Boooooosh!!!!!

That's your proof? An opinion piece? So you are saying we are being blackmailed by corporations? And we should fall for it? No wonder right wingernuters are so bad at economics, foreigner policy and negotiations.

WE aren't being blackmailed by big corporations.
YOU are being manipulated by them to think your Dem-gods aren't in their pockets as deeply as you accuse the republicans

Jobs, freedom, independence. You know, stuff the Democratic Party thinks people dont need.

So if the Republicans are for Jobs, how come massive amounts of jobs vanish whenever they are in charge?
