Damn Dirty Democrats

I hope we never sink to anything like what this article reports. I'd rather lose well than win like a heathen. I'll just trust the Lord with the rest.

[makoman]

I guess the Democrats would like to shut down the country until their candidate wins. This partisan backstabbing is shameful!

[pgyanke]

I don't have enough time to read all of the posts right now so I hope I'm not repeating what's already been said but...

One of the most striking realities to come out of this election debacle (to me) is the fact that Democrats are a party and Republicans are individuals. You expect a Republican to consider the party's input and vote his conscience. You expect a Democrat to vote straight party line.

Nowhere have they shown this more demonstrably than in their candidate swaps. By declaring their right to change candidates and not even consider the will of their constituencies, they are admitting that one Democrat is the same as another. No matter who you elect, they will vote the same way.

The Republicans? We're so fair, we give our opponents the advantage.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to see this change! Stay fair. Keep being individuals who think and vote by your conscience. However, don't sell the farm in the process.

Prosecute crime for what it is and sooner or later your political opponents will all be incarcerated or reformed to an American model. Either result suffices.

He got all emotional, said he hated politics and would agree to no longer vote if I would simply never bring up the subject to him again.

Take him up on it, Dutchgirl! There are many mixed marriages in the country. Your husband is admitting that you're right. He may come around on his own some day. You've obviously challenged him.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Shining the light on Dirty Rats, ping!

Clinton and Democrat leaders are telling their party members that there will be Dem.attorneys posted at every precinct to prevent poll watchers from challenging ANY ballots. Link

GET OUT THE VOTE BUMP!

"My Grandmother wouldn't even speak the word Democrat if there were children in the rooom, she'd say Bastards instead."

I'll send those links in the next email. Word will get out!

"...my husband is a Dem....said he hated politics and would agree to no longer vote if I would simply never bring up the subject to him again...I am considering his offer. I'm looking for input, here."

No disrespect intended; but, you're *looking* for input??
Good grief woman, strike while the iron's hot!!

Now about your being a conservative, and, entering into Holy matrimony with a 'Rat??
Wellll...

...you know what Dr. Laura say's about mixed-faith marriages, right? {G}

[Dutchgirl]

He's not admitting that I'm right. Admitting I am right would require him to renounce his family upbringing. He is only admitting that he is worn down. Earlier in the weekend, I discovered he had let his life insurance lapse, and I was on him like white on rice, demanding to know if he intended to leave me and our minor children at the mercy of the Social Security system, should the worst happen. He hates when I personalize my political arguments with him.

Conservatism is living and breathing to me, because it is tied up in my moral beleifs. God is not neutral, and if we would be like Him, we can't sit on the fence-especially on issues like abortion and family values. I feel a duty to my husband and family to try to avoid conflict in the home- and hubby is making an effort. I just don't know how much a bargain like this will cost me. I am one of those people who won't give their word unless they know they will keep it.

I know there are fellow FRepers who share this sense of honor, who are also passionate about their beliefs. Is it doable? Anyone else in a similar situation? He's not asking me to give up Free Republic or my beliefs, just keep politics out of the house.

Actually, it'd be just fine for me if Ashcroft was uncomfortable being photographed with some bronze background boobs as "antlers"--you know how cute and clever a photographer can be. That's what I thought it was all about. ..

And if anyone grouses, reply--"You could always put a Democrat Thong on her, instead."

[E Rocc]

I liked what P.J. O'Rourke once said about his grandmother, "She never used the word 'Democrat' in the house, she used the word 'bastards' instead."

He also said that in his hippie days his grandma got suspicious and asked if he was becoming a Democrat. When he replied that he was a Maoist she answered "just as long as you're not a Democrat".

[E Rocc]

The Democrats haven't just become Nixon, they've become the exaggerated liberal nightmare version of Nixon: Today Democrats are what they believe Nixon was.

In other words, what Lyndon Baines Johnson was.

Johnson allegedly about defecated himself when it became clear the Walter Jenkins arrest would become public before the election. Not so much because of what he thought Goldwater might do with it (intellectually, he knew Goldwater was an honorable man and wouldn't do much) but because of what he would have done with it, had it happened to an opponent.

-Eric

[pgyanke]

Interesting thought. It dovetails on what I've always thought about Democrats...and they continue to prove: they are an interesting study in projection. All of these evils they accuse Republicans of WANTING to do, THEY DO.

Just a few examples: raised taxes on Social Security income, curry favor with special interests (especially big business and celebrity interests), favor special rights based on social status, advocate lawlessness, encourage our enemies, control personal actions and thoughts, take political advantage at funerals, cast aspersions regarding an individual's sexuality, silence political speech when they disagree... and this is only a list from the top of my head.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

That longtime family party loyalty is a tough one. Do you remember what finally turned you away from our American leftist cultural upbringing? Most Republicans, I've found, did not learn conservative values at home, but rather had their eyes opened through an event, seeds of doubt, GOP talking points that accidentally made it into the mainstream media.

For me it was a C-Span John Birch speech on education a few years back, followed by Rush, followed by Clinton's Monica mess, followed by Elian, followed by FR, followed by election 2000...

That would make a great vanity thread - advice from other 'mixed' marriage Freepers. Good luck. (^:

[ForGod'sSake]

LOL...I've got Julia's RepugnantReptile Right here, baby...

"For me it was a C-Span John Birch speech on education a few years back, followed by Rush, followed by Clinton's Monica mess, followed by Elian, followed by FR, followed by election 2000..."

HA!
I could be mistaken but I recognize your experience for the only thing it could possibly be.
Given the fact one omits any one of those events, & things could be completely different, today.

...yes; the epitome of, "Divine Guidance."
