Are you tired of the over/misuse of the words socialist, maxist, repukes, democRats, Obummer etc...?

is there really a need for all these words? it sounds like a bunch of 50 something year olds acting like 2nd graders. Find some solutions please but Stop the damn name calling!

Update:

Whoops! I did mean marxist lol! Socialist and Marxist are used as slander though not for its meaning.

    YES!!!!!! I'm tired of the dumb feuding on both sides, while we ignore the fact that Democrat and Republican leadership are all corrupted by Special Interests, so we act like the Hatfield and McCoys, and don't notice Wall Street are the only winners in this charade.

    Let me see, yes to all but Socialist. That is a real word with a defined meaning and holds no slander, merely fact. The rest are derogatory slander that should not be used in erudite company. However this is YA and they seem to be everywhere.

    What is "Maxist"? If you meant Marxist then I believe it to be OK also.

    i heard that obama wasn't born here. so i searched around and found out that it might be true. he hasn't produced his original birth certificate for all to see, just a re-print. when they find out this is true what will the CIA do next? what good is the constitution of the united states of america if we don't adhere to it.

    Yes & no, the majority are on the conservative side, & I like it when they name call as it takes all credibility away from the point they are struggling to make. But it has gotten old

    Not at all, just shows their maturity level and/or ignorance about what those terms really mean.
