I’m going to continue calling our form of government a democracy, and here’s why. Arguing against democracy is a trap. The stupid nitpicking about the word has led to too many idiots calling the commies “Democratic” in articles. They’re not democratic.

Most voters will continue to perceive democracy as a good thing. Our nation is a democracy of the best kind. And yes, it’s a representative republic. But have a look at the names of some of those foreign governments that call themselves republics and consider wiser, more convincing political speech.

Our nation has the most viable democratic government on the planet as evidenced by our votes counting more than votes count in other countries and for a longer period of time. So go ahead, post those long rambling arguments nitpicking about semantics. I’ll still call the U.S.A. a democracy and a fine one, too.

Republicans are more democratic than Democrats. And a Democrat politician is not “Democratic.” That’s retarded. Oppose retarded linguistic activism, because wasting America’s time with it is moronic.

AFAIAC, ‘republic’ is a subset of democracy, not a stand alone creation. Saying we are a republic and not a democracy is like saying crickets aren’t insects.
