If you look at a map of the Red state/Blue state divisions, NOW look at a map of the areas with the highest crime rates, NEXT look at a map depicting the highest rates of HIV/AIDS infection, then you will have a good idea WHAT a Liberal Democrat is.
Is it any surprise that the people who commit the most crimes, and have the greatest HIV rates also want YOU to pay more taxes to take care of them? Several poster have amplified my argument very well. The people who congregate in crowded cities looking for government handouts and services ARE the people that vote for Democrats.
Surely, some of the city dwellers are there because they run businesses which need close proximity to lots of potential customers. That is why a percentage of the cities' votes are conservative.
Clearly, the wealth generators are a generous majority of the Republicans and Conservatives. Many of the Liberal wealthy merely inherited their wealth and don't know the effort taken to earn it. i clap my hands to you Sir. Great point.
want to become a democrat here are some other things in mind you need
1) a baby killer
2) willing to raise taxes
3) pay as you go policy (geesh)
4) medical for all (forced) and those who live poor will become more poor on top of more taxes
5) there is probably more but im getting sick A big ol Vag. A brain and a desire not to see your country go down the drain as it's doing today. That's a flawed analogy for a variety of obvious reasons.
The essence of the political left is labor. The
right-wing is the rentier (those who make their living
off of rents, royalties, bond interest and dividend
payments). Those terms and definitions came out of the
era of the French Revolution. This can be easily
understood as the capitalist (right-wing) gets richer
and richer when the workers (left-wing) toil harder
and harder for less and less.
The essence of the right-wing is the wealthy-elite and
this wealthy-elite has a significant problem in any
type of democratic society. That problem is that they
are a tiny, tiny minority. They reconcile this problem
by confusing a portion of the working class left and
then convincing those confused members to vote against
their own best interests. I like to refer to these
confused people as Archie Bunkers. Archie Bunker was a
flag-waving, right-wing Republican who was getting his
brains beat in by right-wing capitalism.
The Republican Party is hardly a party of decency.
Bush is the most prolific killer in our generation.
Bush, Limbaugh and other highly visible right-wingers
have a history of drug and alcohol abuse. Giuliani and
others have severe "family-values" issues. And
certainly, you must have noticed all of the gay sex
scandals in the Republican Party. In fact, those kinds
of sex scandals are not a new occurrence. They go back
decades. Look up the Franklin Sex Scandal and you'll
find that it goes all the way to the Reagan/Bush White
House.
The right-wing only embraces select social issues when
they can be used to split the left. Reagan and Bush
were advocates of abortion early in their political
careers. Reagan promoted one of the friendliest
abortion bills in the nation when he was governor of
California. The feeling among the right-wing at that
time was that they wanted to get women off of the
welfare rolls and they believed that abortion helped
to accomplish that desire. They only became
anti-abortion when they realized that it could be used
to split the left.
There are no right-wing governments anywhere in the
world that promote citizen ownership of guns. The
right-wing governments see an armed citizenry as a
threat to their own dominance of society. If the
public here were to become revolutionary-minded, one
would quickly see the right-wing clamp down on public
ownership of guns.
The right-wing has never promoted any true
life-affirming policies. In fact, it was the
right-wing that fought tooth and nail against those
who sought to outlaw child labor in this country. It
was the right-wing that fought tooth and nail against
those seeking to form labor unions. It was the
right-wing that fought tooth and nail against the 8
hour work day. It was the right-wing that fought tooth
and nail against minimum wage laws. It was the
right-wing that fought tooth and nail against women
suffrage. It was the right-wing that fought tooth and
nail against civil rights. These were all liberal
initiatives that were only won after tremendous
struggle against the political right-wing. In fact,
ALL life-affirming policies that have ever been passed
were advanced by the political left.
Liberals are those members of society who embrace
capitalism (which is the essence of what separates
them from socialists) but also believe in fair wages,
environmental protection laws, civil rights laws,
work-place safety laws, regulation of industry and so
on. Since a liberal, by definition, is tolerant, they
can't simply embrace and abandon social issues on a
whim like the right-wing has done. Liberals embrace a
live and let live philosophy that right-wing
politicians are able to take advantage of in their
effort to confuse the less political savvy members of
the underclass.
Socialists believe that capitalism is completely
incompatible with a decent society. The great Albert
Einstein explains why in his essay "Why Socialism."
Here's the link:

" . . . nowhere have we really overcome what Thorstein
Veblen called "the predatory phase" of human
development. . . . the real purpose of socialism is
precisely to overcome and advance beyond the predatory
phase of human development." -- Albert Einstein And what about the blue states in the south?
It's a corrolation, not a cause.
And it's the bluestaters who are taking care of the redstaters in terms of taxes. It requires developed critical thinking skills and a conscience, something Republicans have yet to develop.
And your source for this propaganda? No sources? Gee aint THAT about par for the course?
Republicans believe in no handouts and less governemnt involvement in their lives, correct? Then why do the highest amounts of federal tax dollars go to Red States?
Unlike you I have actual PROOF to back up MY assertions.

Guess we now know who the real Welfare grabbers are, don't we? When will the Red Staters taking al lthat tax money to live give it back? When will they practice what they preach? When will YOU get a job and move out of your parent's house? um, hello. Correlation does not equal causation. Democratic politics appeals more to people who live in highly urbanized areas. Do you really believe that when these areas vote Republican, that this situation turns around? Show me evidence that this is the case and maybe I'll take you seriously. Otherwise you have no idea what your talking about.
Besides which, rural areas receive the most money from the government per person. We liberals pay more taxes to take care of of suburban and rural conservatives, not the other way around. Look it up if you don't believe me. If you stop taking our money and we'll stop taxing you as much, but then you'd whine about it along with all the worthless crap you whine about such as abortions or bad words being used on TV. In a nutshell.
The Democrats hold onto a philosophy of anti individualism.
In other words, to be a Democrat means to believe that individuals are powerless to accomplish anything on their own and government assistance is always neccessary.
Basically relinquishing more power to the federal government and less individual decision making. Cause and correlation are not the same. Blue states have a higher density of people because of many larger cities are located in them. Boiled down, crime rates are higher in metropolitan reasons.
It has always fascinated me that most cities in red states vote Democratic, too. It is just that the rural populations are larger than metropolitan area populations there. HOWDY, HOWDY, HOWDY!!!
After two weeks in the VA Hosp. ICU it is Great to be back.
I must agree with you 100%. I am tired of seeing " I voted for it before I voted against it." And it is the Dems that say it. Do we really want a Dem. in the White House like before?
STAY SAFE!!!
AMMO!!! MAN, Bulldog |
