Ain't my party, I consider the republicans to be liberals and the democrats to be socialists, with a little bit of good ol Woodrow Wilson Progressivism mixed in. BOTH parties. I often use the term "535 Criminals" when discussing WADC. The Spartans had a unique system; everyone that served went on trial after their term expired. Probably be a good idea here.
PS Here’s my take:
Republican politician: Pro 2nd amendment, Pro Capitol Punishment, Anti Abortion, want to collect your money and keep it for themseves.
Democrat politician: Anti 2nd amendment, Pro Abortion, anti Capitol punishment, want to collect your money and give it to everyone else.
Progressive: What Constitution?
PPS I'm more along the lines of an Independent Conservative.
PPPS Didn't vote for the New Messiah, but I don't hold it against you if you did...
