I have given you plenty of chances to answer for the Dems failed policy. You continue to ignore that and hurl insults. You obviously lack the intellectual power to debate your side. Thanks for praising Pab(st) though. You should take your cue from him.....
Read my previous threads. I tried to converse with people and point out, based on logical arguments why I believe the DEMs would be a good choice this time. All i got were "Liberal Dem" one liners replies.....how can you debate, reason with these people ? If you want to engage in a healthy respectful debate. then yes, as long as we exchange ideas and refrain from one liner insults like "liberal dem" and "fake conservative" not backed up by factual evidence.
2008 Dems are not Carter Dems. The same way Reagan / Newt GOP is not the same party that it became.
But beyond their current "tax cut" positions, The GOP needs to be punished, "Moral hazard" should apply to them as much as to banks, and if they are not kicked out, what incentive do they have next time to listen to their constituents rather than to Morgan Stanley CEO types. NOTHING. The calls to the capitol were 100-to-1 AGAINST the bailout. and why why why why for the love of God did they vote for the bill ?
It's a betrayal of humongous proportions, it's like your wife cooked you dinner and went to fuck with your best friend.
If the GOP were the party of true conservatism. Ron Paul with his massive primary cash haul should have gotten some traction in the polls.
If you're honest, you'll concede that the party has become ethnic & exclusive (READ : White males.) The attempt to destroy people on origin (Powell, Obama, Gen Shinseki) rather than policy/ issues made it very clear for me.
It breaks my heart to say it, but it's true.
