clydefrand's JournalIs there a place where I can find the difference in what
the Democrats stand for (in general, believe in) vs. what the Republicans stand for? Now we know that the party's 'platforms' at the conventions are made up to sound great, but never seem to have anything to do with what they say once they are elected.
I would like to see a side by side comparison of the real differences between the two parties. Any other party is of such little consequence they don't really matter.
I guess a true 'die-hard' repub. would have to write their side rather than a demo. writing what they THINK
the repubs believe in.
Of course, not everyone can agree 100% on every thing, but should agree on the major items.
When I was a kid, my dad always said
don't ever point a gun at anyone/anything unless you plan on shooting it.
This should STILL be taught to every one who can hold a loaded gun in their hands.
I think the Obama daughters show a WHOLE LOT MORE class
than this 'repub' puke:
Elizabeth Lauten, the communications director for Rep. Stephen Fincher (R-Tenn.), wrote that the two teenagers should "try showing a little class," "dress like you deserve respect, not a spot at a bar," and, most of all, "don't make faces" at Very Serious public events.
Oh, how I wonder
if all the police were polled, what percentage would side with the Ferguson policeman, and how many would condemn what he did? My guess, most would condemn what was done.
Why so many blacks are getting mudered
I think that too many people (including white cops) would so much like to shoot Obama but know they could never get a chance, take it out on the nearest handy black.
I'll predict: if HRC wins the 2016 election, watch and see how all of a sudden white women will start being shot.
This world (especially USA) is just getting to be a very sick mess.
The Democrats Prayer
PLEASE LET THEM SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT AND
TRY TO IMPEACH THE PRESIDENT!

reincarnation must be true
Q: Why are politicians proof of reincarnation?
A: You just can't get that screwed up in one lifetime.
Hey,you guys up there in Buffalo,
I'm getting ready to sell a house in Florida (snow birder home). I'll be selling it 'cheap'.
Might get a place in Alaska..
Best way to learn about a politician is to
post something here on DU.. Yesterday when I posted about Jim Webb, I really didn't know a whole lot about him, but boy, do I now. Did notice a few conflicting post about his time in the senate.
Now,, I really will have to give a long 2nd thought about Jim, HRC, Elizabeth, et. al....
Jim Webb
I got an e-mail from him today, saying he was considering running for pres. in 2016. It was a terrific read. Of course I've heard of him a lot since I'm in Virginia. I've been more or less for HRC all along, but I'm beginning to think Jim would make an excellent president.
I'm not sure just how wide spread his name is known, which might or might not be problem for him.
Any comment out there regarding Jim's run for pres.?
As a side thought, perhaps it is time to change 2014 election to 2016 election??
