Democrats or Republicans?
« on: October 10, 2002, 09:31:57 AM »

Liberal Democrats, or strict Republicans? Why?

And, do you think that we should go to war with Iraq?

Not one to let my party affiliation leak out.

As for war with Iraq: Ever seen the movie Wag the Dog? The only difference is instead of warring on sound stages, the "studios" will be Iraqi villages.

The result when Democrats are in power?  Bigger government, more intrusion, less freedom for citizens, the little guy gets screwed.

The result when Republicans are in power?  Bigger government, more intrusion, less freedom for citizens, the little guy gets screwed.


Vote Libertarian instead.  Voting for Demublicans or Republicrats will only continue the status quo.

I am not affiliated with any party and detest the whole party system.  I am running as a write in candidate for POTUS in 2004 now that I am old enough.  I subscribe to many of the tenets of the Libertarian Party, but not all.  As for going to war with Iraq.  I am against it.

I try to be realistic. No matter what, the president will always be Democrat or Republican because the drooling masses are either too stupid to bother looking into 3rd part candidates or too convinced a 3rd party candidate could never win and don't bother. This is why I debate voting in the upcoming election.... Well ok, a vote for anybody is one less for W, but still... he's gonna win anyway. The drooling masses also seem to think he's a hero of some sort.  :doh:  :|

Give me your vote then.  If you do this and spread the word via the internet then your cynicism will be unfounded.

happiness is a republican majority.

and i think someone said they detest the party system.. well would you rather have an absolute monarch instead? oooo oooo how about anarchy?

i think youre being cynical and trying too hard to be heard or seen as different.. you want to be noticed here because im assuming you arent in real life... yea youre different. woo hooo. so vote republican.

as for war with iraq i am surposongly AGAINST it, not because i care about irq but because our reasons for wanting to fight them are bad. if you want me to explain i will, but its a pretty long explanation.

You know, you can bring up old topics if you'd like - as long as you have a decent reason to do so. If you weren't allowed to, I would delete them or close them to prevent someone from doing it.

I wouldn't call what he said "decent." He made very little sense to me. Work on constructing an argument, Mr. Bojangles. And please, please, PLEASE do not write like you're in a chat room?

My My! Last thing I remember from you was beating up some kid at school for showing no compassion at 9-11. Have you matured since?


Now guys, I will personally endorse MR. Bo. I used to argue with him all the time over at CS skinshack, back when it was operational. Now if he chooses to hang around here, let's give him a chance to get comfortable before we all go critism bomb on him. He's a cool guy.

Note to MR Bo: Never click on any links from banshee...

Same deal here. It's like this dude who came with a group of us to the Philly protests. Apparently one of the heads of the club met him at a Students for Life war debate (Why would THEY be havin a war debate?). I was so surprised there was someone in this world who was pro-life and anti-war, I recognized him as quite the unique one, heh. :shock:
