blind party loyalty will only get you constitutional nullification. I feel sorry for those still trapped between the false left/right paradigm. Did you ever notice that during the 08 elections, both the candidates agreed on about 99% of the major issues? Hummm, if they all agree, then how can this nation be divided??
Vote for principal, not party loyalty. you know Obama voted for the PA twice and bombed Pakistan his 1st week in office (and continues today)? yea, bummer that the constitutional scholar doesn't follow the constitution when voting on legislation or bombing other nations without a declaration.
Wasnt that the beef you dems had with Dubya? Unconstitutional wars/executive orders/legislation and spending???

then you don't know the true history of the Kennedy's?
I was 16 when president kennedy got elected
but since then it was Jack, Bobby and Teddy who have all been
playboys and cheated on their wives~Marilyn Monroe? Mary Jo K.?
and many many more too numerous to mention
Ted Kennedy was a obnoxious loud mouth drunk~~but Obama pictured
him like some kind of saint~Ted had over 40 years in Congress and he
was the epitome of corruption and a nasty temper.
You forgot how Republicans booed President Bush Jr. and protested
the war in Iraq~~Now President Obama has a war all of a sudden the Democrats cease their demonstrations on wars
I once was a loyal Democrat but now I cannot stand the party
~~the Democrats soon will not be there for Obama
Success is a lousy teacher
It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose!

Interesting; you are devoted to a party that has less class, but you hold the other party to higher standards than your own? Has it occurred to you, that polite, classy people can have their fill, too - especially of the party that you subscribe to? People should be indignate to lies - to losing their country, and that, takes courage. That is righteous anger.
What you see on tv is not accurate; I have been to many political events, and came to know the media is terribly slanted; it can make the pope look like he is causing riots -

Lately the Republicans went from being a " big tent " party to a party of fundamentalist Christian rightwing extremists. The powers behind this shift want to establish an authoritarian theocracy.
No good can come of this.

The rightwingers really are a party of nuts. My father is one of them. He can't think without using lines from Rush Limbaugh or Fox news. The Republicans have gathered all the hillbillies, 50s leftovers from from communist scare days and the 'Christian' wannabes who are full of un-Jesuslike hate to support them. So you've got this carnival of fools herding behind people like Rush Limbaugh and Bill Oreilly going around the nation reacting as if they have torets syndrome everytime they hear a key word one of their leaders has implanted into their brains.
Class has nothing to do with the parties. There are people from both who have class but as I noted the Republicans have decided to round up all the wackos in the nation to run around for them.

I am not a republican, but you really think the democrats have any class? I pity people who call themselves devoted republicans or democrats. I am an American. I am not a political party's label.

The problem most people have is they look to politicians to lead them, to take control of their life.
Politicians are corrupt, doesn't matter if they are republican or democrat, they are all corrupt, they only care about themselves, they achieve power just to line their pockets with cash.

Americans really wish the democratic party had any credibility ..we already know they lack class

Decades ago, A large number of Southern Democrats defected to the Republicans. Many Democrats are glad to see them leave, and Many Republicans are upset to see them.

you object to the fact the the GOP is against Barry because he apologizes for this country, spends us into generational debt and usurps the power of his office for his family's enjoyment? PATHETIC of you!
