Great News for Democrats

[tdurden21]

The Democrats might be tough, but if they do anything stupid they have to deal with Texas.

Long live the Texas-Oklahoma-Kansas Area, the other, Better South.

Whoa there! The better South? You've obviously never been to the greatest state in the Union...Georgia.

Anyhow, this really doesn't matter. The American government (politicians, not the system) sucks anyhow.
The US government has been a Ponzi scheme since the 1950s. No offense to you Yankees, but the government and everyone in it needs a good cleaning out. I wouldn't touch any of them with a 38-and-a-half-foot pole. But that's just me.

And before you ask, I'm not a Republican.

I have not been East of Mississippi and I've not even been there since I was about 9. My family used to drive to Tunica from Oklahoma and my mom and I would go to Memphis while my grandparents played slots in Tunica, by the way Nevada is looser on laws of children in the casino. However, I do watch a show filmed in Atlanta, Good Eats, though the host is from LA and constantly pretends to be southern.

And before you ask, I'm not a Republican.

Who is?

[tdurden21]

Haha. I forgive you. The eastern seaboard is pretty wicked though.



And to answer, everyone where I'm from maintains their Republican ties, despite eight years of crap.

Eh, there is little practical difference between the Democrats and Republicans. Both wade equally deep in the waters of utter incompetence. Democrats are incompetence tinged with pathetic spinelessness, while Republicans are incompetence with a streak of balls-out insanity.

My previously cynical-neutral position on American politics has only been recently altered slightly by the 2008 election, more specifically when the Republicans made numerous thinly-veiled threats against Russia during Georgia's acts of belligerence and their VP nominee quite openly saying she was prepared to go to war against Russia. So now I'm very thinly in the "Democratic" camp under the proud headline: "DEMOCRATS: THEY ARE PROBABLY SLIGHTLY LESS LIKELY TO BOMB MY COUNTRY AND START WORLD WAR III"

Good for Arlen Specter though. Only a fool goes down with a sinking ship, and the invertebrate Democrats are just weak-willed enough to push him through the Pennsylvania elections instead of propping up a party yes-man who at this point would quite clearly flatten either Specter or Toomey. Always good to see a politician in power smart enough to ensure his own political survival.

Jethro: drink more, think less. You might end up with some reasonable opinions.

Rush Limbaugh.

HAHAHAHA!! Brilliant.

I was being sarcastic there. It is hard to think of a government more riddled with sheer incompetence and hypocritical bullshit than America's, though it does compensate by being among the most entertaining governments.

I completely agree. There are a lot of people who actually like it when the Senate is in a filibuster or something cos those fools can't pass their senseless laws and pork barrel spending. The best was when Clinton was being impeached. There were no new bills and good jokes on Letterman and Leno.

If only the Democrats would adopt that stance. I almost voted for Nader, but he's gone a little squirrelly.
