What if you're actually dead, and in purgatory, and we're all just here to annoy you?
Well I'm off to go watch Gangland, but worry not my fellow political junkies I shall return and work towards converting all my fellow Jaguars to good Libertarians in the very near future!
I don't talk politics. My cousin Shelley is a US Congresswoman...we get enough politics in the family without going out and looking for them!!
Quote:West Virginia?
That would be her. Her dad was also the Governor there years ago.
Quote:On the important issue's there is very little difference in Republicans and Democrats. I'm still a "registered" Republican but only so I can try and weed out the big government Republicans in primaries.
After they ran John McCain I said never again, and I've stuck to it. Voted Gary Johnson last time around, plan on voting third party unless Rand or Ted gets the nomination which is a long shot. But Obama and Bush to me are one in the same, they just vary on different social issues.
Whew that felt good to get off my chest!
What, all two of them?
You do realize you live in northeast Florida, don't you? Where the politicians who are "liberal" are still to the right of Louis XIV.
It seems that you enjoy throwing your vote away. The Democrats thank you.
My motto has been:
"Anybody but Ron Paul."

Knarnn wisdom:
While the theory of Communism seems like the answer to building an utopian society, there's no way to truly execute the Communist way of thought when you factor in human nature.
So this should make for good reading...

George Bush was big government republican as well as John McCain and mitt Romney. I'd say 70% of the Republican Party is just as dependent on government if not more than the democrats.
Ill get specific:
Republicans refuse to change the tax code from a production tax to a consumption tax
Republicans always support large forieng wars that expand government power ie patriot act ndaa TSA and NSA
Republicans refuse to take on the welfare state I'm an advocate of ending all federally funded welfare make states responsible for their own
Republicans are for big corporate bailouts which is essentially corporate welfare
Republicans want government to control social issues ie war on drugs, marriage laws, and end of life decisions.
My bigger problem with republicans is their constant push towards a police state
From that list you can pretty much conclude what my problem with democrats is.

Let me ask why? Most conservatives I talk to its because of his foreign policy is that correct?
Doesn't really matter anymore his time has passed but I'm looking for someone with his same non intervention foreign policy. I think his theory of blowback is dead on.
Okay, I'll wade in. This will probably draw sharp rebuke or warm support based on people's strong ideological ideas, but here goes:
When done up right, I think Michelle Obama is pretty hot.
There it is. Have at it, boys.
Politics: The easiest way to pick a fight that will never end. The problem is the NPR following guys (both sides) get their heads filled with a one sided argument and they become so angry/obsessed with things that are out of their control. Then they like to use message boards as their vehicle to vent their frustrations. Just horrible.

I don't think that's the case. I've changed my stance on many issues after debating with people on different topics. If nothing is ever discussed nothing ever changes.
The largest problem hampering the political system is the lack of term limits. The president is a figure head and the same clowns are making decisions for way to long. Corrine Brown serving since 1993, being one local representatives that is the perfect example. There has to be changes in term limits put in place.

Well, I'm glad you're in the .1%.
