Which Political Party Do You Identify With?

#10

Quote:I was a republican for a long time, throuh the RR years, then the party went so far right it abandoned most of my principals.


The party abandoned me.


I now associate with the democrats, can't say I view myself as overly liberal. I don't think it is liberal to be dead set against the death penalty, for example, or pro choice. At the same time, I can see the value for a strong military, yet know that it shouldn't be used based upon known lies and misinformation.


I try to not act like it is a team sport, and try to individualize the issues.


Frankly, the actors in place now make it easier to identify with the democrats.
 

I can understand most of your point of view, though I'm not against the death penalty.  Pro choice is an "on-the-fence" issue for me.

 

I don't really agree with the "known lies and misinformation" thing, and I don't think that there is a Democrat in office that I can really identify with, other than perhaps Mayor Brown.

 

I do agree though that the Republican party has abandoned me.  Right or left, it seems to be more about "the establishment" on both sides of the aisle.



There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.
