Which political party are you?

[8Mud]

Are you a Democrat,Republican or Southern Republican?
Here is a little test that will help you decide.

The answer can be found by posing the following question:

You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a knife comes around the corner, screams obscenities, praises Allah, and charges at you. You are carrying a Glock Cal 40. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.

What do you do?

Democrat's Answer:
Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! Does the man look poor or oppressed?
Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?
What does the law say about this situation?
Why am I carrying a loaded gun, what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?
Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?
Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?
Why is this street so deserted? We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.

Republican's Answer:
BANG!

Southern Republican's Answer:
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click.....(sounds of reloading).
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click

Daughter: "Nice grouping, Daddy! Were those the Winchester Silver Tips or Hollow Points?

Son: Git-r-Dun Pop! Can I shoot the next one!

Wife: You ain't taking that to the Taxidermist!

But, Im registered Republican because I like things more traditional/conservative for the most part, but like Trail Axe said, I'll vote for the candidate that I agree with the most. Ron Paul for Pres. wink wink

Watched Glenn Beck last nite and he was interviewing two candidates, Milt from Massachusetts and Huckabee from Arkansas. Like Huckabee, common sense and no visions of godlike power that I saw, I had an open mind about Milt, UNTIL he asked Milt if he would turn the two border agents loose that shot that drug dealer in the ass. Milt did a nice well executed Fred Astaire dance around the issue, waffled with the best of them and avoided giving an answer, that response lost me on the spot, then I watched closer, guy blinks too much and he is now firmly entrenched in my mind as another weasel, not that I don't like weasels and ferrets you just have to keep them under control or they shit all over the house..
Ron Paul and Mike Huckabee so far have my interest on the republican side. Democrats, none so far, they are all slime buckets.

8Mud, I'm definately a Southern Replublican!!
In my opinion, Fred is the ONLY candidate that actually understands the premises upon which our great country was founded. (Google Fred + Thompson + Federalism). But he just makes too much sense to get elected in my opinion.

People see him as "dodging the issues" when he doesn't answer with a "yes" or "no" that they see as the only answers. But then again, these same people think that we live in a Democracy!! To them I say, "Have you ever read the constitution, or do you just go by what someone told you it says?". (Before someone starts flaming, say the pledge of allegiance and realize that we are a Republic not a Democracy, and yes, there is a big difference!)

And to all who are making jokes about your creator, I believe, sirs, that it is time for you to find a new country. Perhaps France would be a good choice. Our founding fathers created a country where there is Freedom OF religion, not freedom from religion, and yes, the religion that they recognized was Christianity.

A couple of quotes for you to think over:

“ It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and Bible.”
--George Washington

"What students would learn in American schools above all is the religion of Jesus Christ."
--George Washington

Inscription on the Liberty Bell:
“ Proclaim liberty throughout the land and to all the inhabitants thereof” [Leviticus 25:10]

At the Constitutional Convention of 1787, James Madison proposed the plan to divide the central government into three branches. He discovered this model of government from the Perfect Governor, as he read Isaiah 33:22;
“For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king;
He will save us.”

“ God governs in the affairs of man. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured in the Sacred Writings that except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it. I firmly believe this. I also believe that, without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babel”
--Benjamin Franklin

“In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed...No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.”
--Noah Webster

But then, I'm a dumb redneck from Alabama who obviously has no education and lacks the ability to understand the intents of our founding fathers! But I digress...

Vote then discuss you're stance and why.


I'm a republican. I don't agree with how libral the democrats are.

While not wholely Democrat, I dont agree with how consertavite Republicans are. Both have good ideas, but the Republicans do need to chill out a bit right now.

 

[Starscream]

Ron Paul Revolution!

But seriously, he'll get my vote. I don't think he fits on the Republican ticket, but then again he doesn't fit anywhere, so...

Wondered myself how he got on the Republican ticket. Maybe one of those right winged conspiracies to steal some of the Democrat's votes? :jester:

 

[BruceB83]

I'm conservative in most of my beliefs. I no longer claim the Republicans due to the lack of gonads and lack of push for what the supposedly believe in. Libertarian whether they get elected or not.

 

[RyanM]

I'm apolitical. Politicians get nothing done. Government is bloated and corrupt, bureaucracy is unbounded and this country is grossly mismanaged. Until there is a drastic change in which planning and accountability become the norm, I have no interest or faith in the way our country is run. I'm fiercely independent, and I know my vote doesn't count.

 

[TRNDRVR]

I voted Democrat. 'Other' never wins, and most of the Republicans I know are a bunch of chickenshit pussys. :gag:
:flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame:

:anon:

Since you brought it up; there seems to be a belief in this country that if you are not some kind of christian there's something wrong with you. No doubt our country was founded on the principles of christianity, as are my own values and beliefs, but that doesn't mean that everyone here must be some kind of christian. It doesn't mean that everyone must even have a religion. There are many good people out there who don't believe in a "higher power" but rather they believe in more scientific explanations for our existance. Regardless of what you believe it is who you are as a person and what kind of values you hold for yourself that determine what kind of person you are. Those who believe there is no god have just about as much proof of their belief as those who believe there is a god. That is to say almost none. We have to understand we are a primitive species and as such are incapable of knowing all the answers.
That being said, I believe the intent of our forefathers was to ensure that the values and beliefs of the citizens of the USA remain based on the principles of christianity, not to require us to be christian. Remember that the reason our country was founded to begin with was to escape religious persecution across the pond.

 

[goodburbon]

Nice to see you posting dan.

 

[IndyXJ]

Ron Paul has ignited my interest again.

 

[sjd78]

Republican! And always will be! Slobbering Liberals are destroying this country and decaying the morals of our youth!

 

[XJEEPER]

I feel that I have the responsibility as a US Citizen to choose the one that will represent my values and have the spine to stand up to the career politicians and turn around our corrupt sitting government.

I want someone leading our country that will represent the will of We The People. I want someone who isn't afraid to do the right thing, regardless of who may think it's politically correct. I want someone who values human life, our God-given liberties and upholds our rights as per our Constitution..........don't think that's too much to ask for in the leader of the United States of America.

I'm for whichever party does the least governing and implements the fewest laws.
One major flaw in the Constitution is they seemed to have failed to plan for the improvements in communication and the speed of the (modern) process.
They designed the Constitution to be slow and unwieldy on purpose. To slow the process as much as possible. Back then a letter could take weeks to travel a few hundred miles and even then they felt the need to slow the process. Think about it.

8Mud, agree with you on this one.
Many politicians have what I call "Do something disease".
Some sort of tragedy, natural disaster, or crime takes place, they (Politicians-Government) feel they have to come up with some new law, or regulation. One example comes to mind is Hate Crimes.
Lets say you killed somebody. They were of a minority race. Or maybe it turned out they were gay. There are laws in place that would cover that, without creating new ones.
