But aren't Democrats actually Libertarians? From where I'm standing they seem to be economically right wing, and socially left wing. As opposed to republicans who appear to be right wing on both counts.

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. In that case I don't see the point of belonging to a political party in the US. A political party, by the definition has a certain political agenda that it adheres to, more or less faithfully, and that agenda is what sets congressmen votes in Congress. And that's why it's important for a political party to get an absolute majority in Congress (or any other form of assembly). So that it can pass any bills regardless of the opposition's agenda. This means that a lesbian woman who votes Republican is effectively screwing herself. Edit: Fixed a terrible faux pas. :hand covering face in shame smilie:

But why would one vote for a congressman that will pursue something in congress that goes against the voter's own beliefs? P.S.: What this all means, I think, is that a person should always vote for individuals not political parties. Because political parties kind of defeat the point of democracy.

Doesn't the Republican Party have a general policy that goes against gay marriage, for example? And, as such wouldn't it be dumb for someone to be Republican and vote for Republicans if that person is in favour of gay marriage?

But being Republican means being against gay marriage homosexuality, abortion, and non-marital sex, or am I wrong in this? :ph34r:

It's not that, it's starting to think of all the things I could be doing differently. It's like a totally new gaming experience inside my head. It's like there's a little NWN2 (insert other game if necessary) hype machine inside my head. I'm a sucker for my own marketing skills.

I'm debating whether to start the OC again as a different class. I'm playing a straight fighter character, and I'm at the warehouse bit in Neverwinter. This always happens to me. I had to start most Infinity engine games (not to mention the Fallouts, too) with about four or five different characters before I found the resolve to stick to one character until the end. :crazy: I'm weak.

I was close, though.

Finding out where Mus? got those awesome animations from. http://blog.hnldesign.nl/blog/pictures-ani...s/mock-the-war/

Crustless bread. It's bread without a point.

Why did they include the delay option? What's the point?

He's hot for Jefferson!

How the hell did you run out of potions?

Yeah, me too. But I'd prefer a cycle key. This would be more important if the game was a bit more challenging, but the way things are going so far, the only strategy I usually is need ganging up on my enemies.

Is there a keymapping to cycle through your party members?

Apparently Roshan doesn't own a keyboard. Also, the AI in NWN2 seems to be about the same as in NWN, and anyway you can always turn on puppet mode if it annoys you. The only real problem I have with NWN2 so far is the lack of any real challenge.

Guess.

The kid on the right looks shellshocked.

Screw those reviews, once the bugs are dealt with everyone will say this game is awesome. And anyway, the only problems the game has given me have been two crashes, one of which happened after I alt-tabbed. Also, the performance issues are a bit overrated. Unless you want to run the game at an insanely high resolution, of course. Hooray for Obsidian! :joy:

I was wondering what those traditionally American things are, especially the ones Democrats are condescending to.

Blue jeans, purple shirt, leather jacket, black sneakers.

Awesome stuff. I think I'l only try it after I finish it once, though.
