DEMOCRAT Gosh Darn It! You cannot vote "democratic" but you can vote "Democrat."

"Democratic" means one thing. "Democracy" means another. Democrat is a political party and they are anything but democratic. There is no such thing as the "Democratic" Party.

Yes, words matter. One of my pet peeves and I can't stand it when conservatives help the progressive takeover of words.

Thank you very much. I detest the Democrat attempts to label their party “democratic”.

I believe your angst is directed at the wrong person. stormpreppper didn’t write this piece. They just posted it from a site called Patriot Newswire. The person who posted it on that site, Timothy Tuttle, got it correct and used “Democrat”. But the original was apparently written by a James W. Anderson, as an editorial to a newspaper some years ago and he’s the one that used “Democratic”.
