GOP * 3

[Nyarlathotep]

All hail Harry Potter ;D

lol

[TMA_1]

lol its funny, most of the people who voted for the green party did not know all of the issues that they supported. Most of the people I knew who voted for that party didnt even know who was running as vice president for Nader.lol Also nader complained about big government and business. The thing is he made millions in the stockmarket. Another insider saying that he is an outsider. I like the Libertarian party myself. has a lot of good views.

[Acriku]

Edric, they are not the same, how could they be? They have different views, one wants banned guns, the other doesn't, one wants more money to the military, the other doesn't, so do tell me how they are the same ::)

[Edric O]

No, Acriku. They both want money and power to themselves. They just use slightly different empty promises in order to acquire that money and power.

[TMA_1]

you dont understand edric, not everything is that simple. Most democrats and republicans really believe in their issues. They are "Sincere". Sincerety is not a virtue and it can be for both bad and good. Both parties are sincerely wrong.

I like a joke put on by the Peanuts cartoon. "You can believe in anything as long as your sincere." which was a satire about beliefs now days

[Acriku]

Edric, through ignorance and obvious manipulation by the mass media, you find greed and corruption through power in everything. Sure there are empty promises, but wake up Edric not everyone is as corrupted as you want them to be. A lot of these people care about their fellow man, and are as common as the next.

[Edric O]

Acriku, how can you be so naive? Politicians care for nothing other than their own pockets! They sometimes do good things, simply because they're also good for their personal interests.

Any idealistic politician who actually cares for the people will not survive for long.

[Anathema]

Any idealist will find it hard to accomplish his goals because politics is based on endless discussion and paperwork. Stop talking, start doing something I'd say.

[emprworm]

Thought I would post this before emprworm got around to it.

lol! I was thinking about it seriously, but realized how many non-Americans we have in here that couldn't care less. BUt great news it is! GO BUSH.

:D

[Anathema]

Empr, you just condemned this topic to bear at least 7 pages ;)

[Edric O]

For the good of the forums, I voluntarily restrict myself from arguing politics on this topic. :)

Still, I find it strange how so many Americans (Emprworm included) can claim to support two causes which blatantly contradict each other: Christianity and right-wing parties.

[Anathema]

Edric, you just condemned this topic to bear at least 10 pages ;) ;D

[The_Sadukar]

and you konw what 'nuker if I post something like "let's kick some yankee ass", this topic bear at least 34 pages. ;D

[Acriku]

Edric, I'm not naive, I am just not brainwashed by YOUR media and stereotypes of OUR politicians. There are truly good-hearted politicians in this country, perhaps if you come to USA you might find out about that.

[exatreide]

ok give me some reasons why republicns are good.

and why democrats are bad.

if you can make a list with out laughing, good job.

[Acriku]

I won't answer that because I find both to be evil and both to be good in their own separate ways. There are silly jokes about both, but I only worry about the issues they side with.

[Edric O]

Edric, I'm not naive, I am just not brainwashed by YOUR media and stereotypes of OUR politicians.

Our media? ROFLMAO! You really should come to Romania once before you start assuming things about it... Our media loves America and everything to do with it. Our media is so pro-american sometimes that it makes me sick. (can you say "@$$-kissing"?)

Stereotypes of YOUR politicians? I was talking about ALL politicians, Acriku! Romanian politicians are probably far more corrupt than your own. But since our politicians are only fighting for scraps while yours effectively rule the world, the corruption of your politicians is much more important.

[Acriku]

When you stated Republicans and Democrats, in a GOP thread, it was my ignorance, nay, my stupidity to not think you meant all politicans.

[Edric O]

Ummm, you'd better review that post, I think you meant to say:

When you stated Republicans and Democrats, in a GOP thread, it was my ignorance, nay, my stupidity to think you did not mean all politicans.

But there was no need for that sarcasm, I get your point. I wasn't clear enough. Sorry.

[Acriku]

Err yeah that was a typo, and fixed.

[SurlyPIG]

Bleh! American politics...

It's kind of like the WWF except less entertaining. All I ever see on the US stations I get is "So and so, running for whatever position, is a very bad person and uses negatives adds. But he can't hide from his record like when he smoked pot when he was 13. Or when he was arrested for DUI at a check stop. And he had an affair with his secretary. Different so and so is much better, and doesn't use negative adds."

As for the parties, they're both very right-winged.

I don't think republicans are evil, per se. NRA members are evil though.

Here's a scary fact for you Europeans:

In California, which has the TOUGHEST gun laws in the USA, you can *ONLY* buy 3 guns per month. :O Damn those democrat bastards, now I can ONLY buy 36 guns a year and 2160 guns in my lifetime. Can you believe it? The average Californian will only be able to purchase 2160 guns before the day they die? Better start buying if you want your kids to hit the 3000 mark before they have kids. rofl.

Oh puh-LEASE! That's ludacris! Those are the toughest laws in the whole country! THAT IS SICKENING!

In Missouri I think, there is a bank where if you sign up for an account there you get a free rifle. A Bank! Sadly no ammo is given :'(

ACE, politics are peoples' careers, they will do whatever it takes, and some might never mudsling at all, like the run for democrat position on the governor elections.

How are the NRA evil? I've thought about joining when I turn 18, because me and my friend, who is already a member, talk about guns all the time and which are better.

[nemafakei]

I saw an american comedian the other night saying something about such things... he made a video of himself doing things like getting the bank account so he could get a rifle. But his most interesting comment is that everyone should be frightened of Bush, because he hads the biggest military force in the world, and he wants to bomb a country he couldn't find on a map.

Start building the shelters, everyone...

[TMA_1]

thats michael moore and he is a satirist. He has a lot of good points but in american terms he can be a tad left wing.
