why do republicans always resort to name calling with no evidence to support there name given?
examples- scandal. behind everything really. we have countless hearings and investigations. only to find out nothing was there. they call democrats socialists and communists. which are totally different but explain how they are these things. they ignore the fact of how bush actually is the one who created most of the current debt with wars and letting corporations tax out at zero. along with millionaires and billionaires. why again were in Iraq. why is this never been a scandal. 6 people die under Obama and the democrats. and its a scandal. hundreds of thousands of people die under bush in wars were still wondering why we were there. in hurricanes where was president bush. never even talked of. except maybe condolences. also why were our bridges in such bad shape when obama entered office. why didn't bush do something. it seems like democrats were left a wreck and get blamed for something republicans did.
hey rock hunt. republicans have controlled congress for almost 6 years. most of that time democrats vote didn't even matter.

No more so than Democrats. Actually they are far better than Democrats at resisting the impulse to kick, scream, and bang their heads on the floor when the world, and particularly congress or the president, isn't pleasing them.
Republicans can kick and scream like Democrats but it is usually only when you actually do something they hate, not just when you haven't done what they demand you do. Democrats throw an even bigger fit if you don't do what they demand.
PS: Communism is the most radical form of socialism. Many if not most Democrats are progressives and a minority might be socialists. I'm not aware of many communists in the Democratic Party. More of those are in Peace and Freedom with the majority of socialists there.
See below for accurate definitions. Today in the US most progressives and some socialists fraudulently call themselves "liberal."
True liberalism advocates: individual freedom, weak government, and free markets. Progressives advocate: social concern, omniscient government, and controlled markets. Socialism advocates: social responsibility, omnipresent government, and collective markets. Conservatism advocates: moral responsibility, strong government, and protected markets ("neo-cons" with international businesses have adopted freer market policies).
Source(s): For decades I studied philosophies, cultures, and social institutions. I began that because of confusion resulting from my military experience under the shadow of neo-Marxist anti-military and anti-capitalism indoctrination in the universities. I continue a forty year quest wading through the huge pile of stinking crap a wide variety of bigots dumped on top of truth hiding it from nearly everyone's view. The pile was made by blaming people or practices they don't like while excusing people or practices they do like regardless of where the fault really lies. - D.E.M.Lv 68 years ago
This from the party that calls gun owners - gun nuts, killers and many other derogatory terms.
Then who is holding those hearings? I mean look at the NSA they just changed their statement from 54 terrorist acts stopped to maybe one. So where is all the news agencies reporting this? crickets! Fast and Furious? Oh wait executive privilege. So much for transparency in this administration as promised. Benghazi, oh wait as Hillary so eloquently put it It doesn't matter. Then you say nothing! Wake up! Look at the facts and get informed, beyond what the news agencies report here in the States. Look at the news from the UK, and other nations. then find the truth somewhere in the middle. or are you so brain washed you just believe what you are told by the major media?

Just to psych up their base....Its just political pandering... I mean if the republican's base really cared about reasoning then they would demand more facts and logic from their representatives.
However the democrats lie just as much as the republicans the only difference is that the Democrats tell the truth/ seem more reasonable (unlike republicans who flat out lie) but fail to deliver or even do the reverse of what they previously stated. (take obama with gitmo, and probly more but I'm too lazy to look up)
In all honesty it is the laziness of constituents (from both the right and the left) to elect, verify and enforce true representation that allows for republicans to flat out lie and democrats to fail to deliver on issues. You could argue that atleast the democrats stand on "Reason" but what good are truthful arguments if they fail to deliver on any of it?

BS the massive dept was caused by the Democrap congress....you know, the branch of government that spends the money, and writes the tax laws.
The dems were NOT "left a mess", they created most of it, then just stupidly blamed Bush.
