Of course this is the most extreme view of Republicans and Democrat can take.

I'm right in the middle, and I gotta say that that video was just pain ridiculous, not to mention hypocritical...

RE: Are you Republican?
 

I vote republican, and this is one of the main reasons :)

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Im voting republican, so gas prices keep going up, and that way i can ride my bike all the time... even in winter ;)

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Democrats are retards.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

+1 on that

Obama for your mama

Are you ready for socialism? Then vote for Big Barrack. Here's a stunning idea...READY? Brace yourself...less taxes and less government. Period. Name one thing the federal government does well...just one. And he wants to expand the government? oooookkkaayyyyyy. Keep your f*ck*n hands out of my wallet..I already pay enough in taxes. And for what?!?!?!? Puuuuuulllleeezzzeeee

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Meaningless to me, being Strine, but any party with the word (Re)Publican would get most Aussies votes.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Yet another reason I vote Republican. What I pay in taxes is terrible.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

More minorities in prison. I dont get that one.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

+1000 on keeping the guns, I'm all about preserving ones life and property, plus, I'm not big on a government that doesn't trust its law abiding citizens. What I want most is to be left alone, I want to get money from my wallet, not my government. I don't envy the rich or pitty the poor, my life is what I make of it good or bad, I rise or fall on my own merits. The thing that scares me about the dems is the whole "nanny" state idea they have. What ever happened to good ole common sense and getting your **** straight for yourself and not looking for an organization to do it for you?

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Give a man a fish...

RE: Are you Republican?
 

I'm registered Republican, consider myself Independant, and usually vote Republican. Obama to me is a Wolf in a sheep costume, but that's just me.

But please don't let this thread turn into a policial s**t fight guys. Let's try to keep it clean and mature. If not, it'll get locked and shut down.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Man, sometimes I wish I was, too...or a Scot...or a Quebecois...or especially a Monegasque...anywhere without two political machines that exist solely to fatten their own coin purses...wait, that happens everywhere.


Pretty funny what Wiki says about Strine:

RE: Are you Republican?
 

aww...common foxy....you miss all the fights...you know you want the opportunity to flex your moderator muscle

RE: Are you Republican?
 

+1

I'm not even gonna mention my political views cause i'll just get hated on for the rest of my CBRForum life.

Oh yeah, I don't have a life since I'm always on the forums...

I'ma follow CBR rule number 2 on this one...

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Hell, I'm an American whose ancestor sworn oath in 1775 Tuns Tavern http://www.usmcpress.com/heritage/usmc_heritage.htm Yes 1775, the founding of the Marine Corps before the founding of the country. Imagine that, who swore an oath to a republic. Not a ****ing democracy. What happened to that?


Who fought for freedom in 1775. Under a decoration of the Republic. In 2001 We fought for freedom again under democracy. What happened to the Republic answer that question if you think they're one and same. I suggest a little more than a basic search on the subject

RE: Are you Republican?
 

That's what I mean. The republic in which this democracy was founded has nothing to with Republicans and Democrats...

RE: Are you Republican?
 

You guys are doing a good job of debating against the rules...we have done it before, and it has been tolerable so far, because everyone has posted with class. That being said:

Funny post, Woo, but the "Pubs" could make a similar video (I'd like to see it, if it exists). I was laughing my ass off at this video. I love political humor! I think I am registered as a Republican (since I could vote). You want a good laugh...I voted Perot back in the day. I thought hewould begood at money management...isn't that the true defenition of a politician? Anyway, I think McCain is older than Ronald Reagan(he's dead, yes), Obama has the worst name ever...is it REALLY: BarackHUSSEIN Obama? Ouch!!! Who is left? Eddy Murphy said it best...may I paraphrase? "You are going to get a shoe in your ass, pick the person with the smallest foot". I have beliefs that would make me a dictator, so I am not the obvious choice for president...too bad. I do believe that no one person will save our country. We may be hoping for a miracle that will never come every time we vote, regardless of their party affiliation. Is our country on the decline? How long do the best "reigning" civilizations last? Rome fell...are we Rome?

RE: Are you Republican?
 

me too

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Three people walk into a bar, a lady, a black guy and a old fart..... AAAAHHHHHHH nevermind this joke is getting old.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Meh, I really didn't have anything intelligent to say, just wanted to post. I don't think I'm going to get into anything political here, it's pretty much useless anyhow

RE: Are you Republican?
 

+1 to gr8shot


And I'm voting Republican to keep idiots like the ones that made this video out of the driver's seat of the greatest country on earth.[&:]

RE: Are you Republican?
 

The reason that the federal gov't. doesn't do anything right is because they try to do more than what the constitution allows them to do.
The federal gov't was tasked with the responsibility of keeping us safe from foreign invaders, (they've done a bang up job of that), and to make sure that the state gov't doesn't infringe on the rights of individuals.
Nearly everything else belongs to the states.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

i have to +1 what blue said...barrack is a wolf in sheeps clothing.....im a Rep.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

And now for my final post, (for now):)

Just to clarify: We do not live in a democracy. The US is, and has always been, a Constitutional Republic.
In a Democracy, everyone has a say and their opinion matters. It is feasibly impossible to govern an entire country by a true democracy.

It never ceases to amaze me when people say that we are "spreading democracy" across the world. We don't have any democracy to spread. We went into Iraq and are helping them to set up their own Constitutional Republic. And even then I use the term republic loosely.

The founding fathers wanted a Republic, (a state that is not governed by a monarch or other hereditary head of state), that was governed by a Constitution.

What is sad is that I work with a lot naturalized US citizens, (Indians, Asians, Muslims etc), and they know the Constitution better than any US-born person with which I work.

The Constitution: learn it, love it and live by it.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

that is true, my wife works with a girl from bulgaria, and i swear she knows more about america, our history, our constitution, culture etc than anyone i know.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

I think this may have to do with motivation.

They need to do a lot of studying at a later stage in their life to become an citizen. When most of training should be done...is during school, yet, even my American History class in High School hardly touched on it. What motivations do we have to do the extensive studying at a young age when we are already here?

The interests for such things usually doesn't appear until later in life, unless something has influenced you down that path earlier.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

+1 to all of this. The problem is that most adult American citizens feel "what motivations do we have to do the extensive studying at an older age?".;)

Most of this stuff comes from government class, which I hated at the time because it didn't seem relevant. Boy was I stupid.:)

RE: Are you Republican?
 

I am absolutely ecstatic that yoo chose to use the word republic loosely, because if in anyway you think this truly resembles a republic then you re living in a ****INGFantasy World if you believe our current structure government has any problem with adding amendments to modify the good Constitution to fit whatever they needed it to, once again, you're living in a fantasy world. If your vocation is one of teacher. I suggest you consult your constituents to quit using the word democracy. When discussing our current form of government with the youth of this nation, regardless of the original origin. Let's see if your 19th post is asbig a sensation as the 19th amendment was or at least thought-provoking
would be quite happy to debate the Constitution with you here or anywhere else I personally have spent enough damn time defending the damn thing to pick it apart

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Getting a bit prickly in here...think I'll go have an appletini, relax, and not fret about that which lies beyond my own power to vote.

Besides, after I saw what happened in South Africa this week, immediately I realized that, in comparison, I have zero problems...although, unemployment may prove to be a slight hurdle...[&o]

RE: Are you Republican?
 

I have, and personally believe that everybody should, spent my time in the employ of Uncle Sam as well.
No, I am not a teacher. I could never make it as a teacher. I have a real problem with revisionist history and such.

What is unfortunate is that the Constitution has the potential to be a great document - as it once was - but if elected officials refuse to be governed by it or govern by it, it fundementally becomes useless.

It's like the saying I read somewhere:

"The Iraqis want a constitution? Let's give them ours. We're not using it any more"

With all of that said, I still believe the Constitution of the United States to be a document worth giving one's life for.


I know it's not as great as suffrage, but thought provoking I hope.:D

By the way HardCorp, +1 to everything that you said.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

You know riegnmanit's too damn bad the version that was put forth on July the 2nd was not ratified. Maybe things like the 19th amendment would not have been necessary or the Civil War either maybe. Of course the big argument behind that was individual states rights going to stop their brother before I'm accused of thread jacking :D

RE: Are you Republican?
 

did you guys here about all the traps they were putting around the wighte house????

there is a coon and a beaver trying to get in

RE: Are you Republican?
 

^^ HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I actually had to read it twice to get it. Good one. :D:D

RE: Are you Republican?
 

^^^Still didn't get it. [&o]

RE: Are you Republican?
 

Coon is a racial slur toward African Americans.
Beaver is slang for vagina.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

HardCorp,
That's the great thing about the constitution. Unlike today's politicians, the framers realized that they were human and would screw up. That's why we have the ability to amend the document. And it's still not quite as easy to amend as you might think.
It might be a lot easier though if the balance between repubs and demos in congress were to shift slightly one way or the other.

RE: Are you Republican?
 

+1 for Republicans
+1 for the Constitution
+1 for American

I’m not crazy about McCain like Bush but he is the better choice. Barack Hussein Obmaha is a Socialist. We all know we need change but what is your plan Barack………….Oh so you don’t have one. I’ll take Huckabee or Ron Paul any day!

http://www.americanrevolution.com/HistoryoftheFlag.jpg

RE: Are you Republican?
 

+1 to the Paul or Huckabee. Preferably Ron Paul because of his strict Constitutionalist approach to government. But neither will ever happen. [:@]
