Dark Moth

There's no 'policy' of the Republican party, at least the way you seem to be implying. It's more like a set of opinions or beliefs that or more commonly associated with members of said party. It's not as if though that someone who's a Republican is compelled to vote Republican. As for you example of gay marriage, a person can be supportive of gay marriage but still vote Republican. For example the candidate the person's voting for my be in support of gay marriage as well, despite being a Republican. It also depends on why the person's voting for that candidate. The candidate might be against gay marriage, but a person might vote for that person because he or she thinks that candidate would be best suited to govern a city/state/nation than the other candidate. The voter might disagree with the person on some issues, but still believe him or her to be a better choice than the democratic candidate. It's not as if gay marriage is the only deciding issue in said election.

Yes. It just tends to be commonly associated with the Republican party. For the record, I'm against abortion too. But I don't live in the dark ages.

That though is going a little too far. First off you're generalizing the majority of the Republican and pretty much accusing them all of living in the dark ages. You're saying that to be Republican is to be Christian, which is untrue. Also, as much as it may seem easy to believe, the chances of the U.S. becoming a theocracy even under Republican control would be slim to none. That'd be like saying American would be a communist nation if the Democrats took control.

I was just trying to see if he really was stubborn enough to keep spamming up the thread. His actions are almost report-worthy, but it's just too damn funny to stop. ANYWAY... Well, at least you're not a mindless nutjob, then. I will say though I don't think like the idea of voting for a party just for the sake of voting for a party. (except in some specific cases)

Which you're essentially saying all Republicans have. Right? But good luck wiping out the Republican party anyway.

Sand logic. I would have to agree with you there. I hope though that at least with the Dems taking up half the Senate we'll see more moderates put in charge.

Is that called "Atom Heart Mother" or just "Mother"? Thin Lizzy - ^^^ Watching that video for some reason makes me laugh. I think it's because I would never picture that movie and that song going together.

Then your answer is no. The implication was that an archconservative would **** up civil liberties. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks. Just making sure! Just don't forget that a Dem controlled senate could always have the possibility of electing an archliberal.

Way to dodge the question.

Are you implying that it's impossible for an archliberal to **** up our civil liberties?

Apparently though he had offered his resignation more than once before, but Bush had refused him.

Personally, I don't think it was a good idea in the first place to distance themselves from him in the first place. The Dems IMO need moderates like him in order to sway the undecided or those near the middle of the spectrum. Instead I saw many of them switching to a more left of center strategy. Then again, one could say that's a good strategy because of the way many are disgusted with the way Republicans have handled the leadership in this country. Farther left = More appealing. (I must say, I'm not very happy either.) BTW Lucius, I am old enough to vote. I did so yesterday. LOL.

I'm hardly the one who needs to relax here, withoutestes. Anyway, I'm going to stop before this goes too far. And I see you still like making pathetic attempts to provoke flame wars and coming up with comebacks a person with downs syndrome would laugh at! Keep it up, kid! Adios.

It's a photo of my love for you. And the way your level of capacity for wit and charisma has yet to surpass that of a five year old.

What are you talking about Dutchie? What do you think my avatar is? In all seriousness though, whether or not I want to post my photo is my decision. If I don't want to, so be it. It in no way makes me a coward. But let's try to keep this on topic and less personal.

I don't think it's that as much as it is just a failure of leadership on his part. I for one am glad to see he's gone. I never liked what he was trying to do with the military.

I'm sorry, is something funny?

Dog killer!

The Sons - Too Much of a Good Thing :D (the main song off the Dumb and Dumber soundtrack) I love the guitar.

True, but I'm just hoping. VA may very well go to the Dems, though.

We lost the House of Representatives! Santorum lost and that idiot Rendell is still in power. :'( *sob* I can't say I didn't see it coming, though. At least we still have majority in the Senate. :joy:
