rob Posted January 30, 2013 Author Posted January 30, 2013 I know a few tea partiers who also refuse to identify themselves as republicans. Who do they vote for, though, I wonder? Certainly not the black man! He's a muslim! You mean the "real" black man? Not the Uncle Tom and sellout? You know, what liberals call every black conservative from Colin Powell, to Condi Rice to Clarence Thomas. Actually, I think most liberals have a lot of respect for Powell. It's the republicans who seem to accuse him of being a liberal. Quote

It's the republicans who seem to accuse him of being a liberal. x2 - indeed, they courted his support for the past 2 presidential elections and got it thomas, on the other hand, is nuttier than squirrel-poo, but i'd never think to call him an "uncle tom" (christ, what white person ever uses that label?) details, meh. liberals hated bush, but for arguable far more accurate reasons, and while they might have joked he was the love-child of krusty the klown, they weren't seriously claiming he was kenyan, or killed a whole school-full of kids to justify a war on the 2nd amendment.

tvashtarkatena Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 No sure of 'yee-haw' was meant to be an insult to this born and raised country boy. I only put on my citified airs after I was herded out of the barn. Quote
rob Posted January 30, 2013 Author Posted January 30, 2013 Why is it that whenever a republican has anything negative to say about his own party, he is labelled a liberal by his peers? Lots of democrats are negative about their party but they're not labelled conservatives. Kinda weird. Quote

I didn't realize he had a history of criticizing his party. Also, I thought they *did* beat him in the primary? That's why he had to run as an independent. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Obama's been my favorite president ever - but not out of party loyalty, of which I possess little to none - just a visceral revulsion for the opposing team's atheist gay, women, black and Mexican hatin' agenda. It's no wonder - I just described by own immediate family. I like Obama cuz: His team saved our economy from disaster. He got us out of Iraq and is getting out of Asscrackistan. He wuvz d gayz now. He picks good folks like Hils to do stuff. He's going after guns...finally. He almost closed Gitmo. In foreign policy, he's not a dumbshit kneejerker. He plays a smart, long game. He took on health care - the toughest nut to crack in the book, and paid the political price for it. He delivered a much deserved kick in the nutz to that give a fuck poster child of Bait and Switch Entitlement. His second term is apparently deflating the GOP's primary propaganda outlet. He may be the one to finally address the largest and most damaging aspect of the War on Drugs - the hobbit's leaf. He falls short in the civil liberties area, fo sho, as did FDR, but he's still got a few years left. We'll see. Edited January 30, 2013 by tvashtarkatena Quote

LOLZ I'm not even sure what point you're trying to make now. The "us vs them" thing is a favorite of yours, not mine. You claim the R's are far worse than the D's. More crazy, willing to call them traitors if they misstep, whatever. I call it human nature. Demanding loyalty, and what not. Nobody likes to be backstabbed or feel such. I also make no claims about one side being fundamentally "crazier" than the other. But pretend you don't get that all you want. Quote

rob Posted January 30, 2013 Author Posted January 30, 2013 I do think the republicans are more crazy. I don't know if they're more willing to call people traitors or not, though. What are the major talking points of the republican party right now? No universal background checks for guns. Anti-choice for abortions. No same-sex marriage. Anti-sodomy laws. Legislation to support "traditional" values. Sure sounds a lot crazier to me than what the democrats are talking about, although certainly I'm no big fan of them, either. Quote

More crazy, willing to call them traitors if they misstep, whatever. yes, that's it excatly (though the word "far" could certainly be debated and evicted from the sentence) liberals of necessity have to tolerate a great deal of diversity of opinion, since that's, like, the meaning of "liberal" - christ, compare the crowd shots of who attended the repubs n' dems summer conventions last year - notice any difference? okay, take the liebernman example - dem's in his state had a choice between him, a moderate, and a more liberal guy - hardly bizarre. now compare it to bob igliss, a south carolian who is amazingly conservative on every single issue in the book, except climate change, who lost too. there is a difference.
