There are definitely more, but that will suffice. If you consider patriotism the desire to see your country thrive and prosper, then you have some serious explaining to do for the last 8 years. Given the awful results that the GOP have brought about in the past 8 years and your dogged, blind, loyal devotion to the political machines that enable them, how is it that any of you are patriotic?

Yeah, that's right. I'm demanding you defend your patriotism. I'm demanding you defend your love for this country and your love of "freedom" given the gradual erosion of our freedoms and the swift erosion of greatness that America once had.

If you're American Patriots, why is it that you stand idly by watching parties and their groupthink philosophies demonstrably ruin the United States???How are you not the biggest traitors of all?

i'm waiting until 2024

in the meantime, i'm serving in a different context

and I defend the erosion of our freedoms and the greatness of America, while attacking politicians and parties gone wrong at every chance I get in the meantime.

"the political machines"

Good game series. The Political Machine(s) are all pretty impressive interations in a long line of political simulators. Their last version accurately predicted the outcome of the 2004 election- far better than major think tanks and analysts. It even correctly identified Ohio as the pivotal and controversial state, more so than Florida for that election.

i converted to libertarian for the most part. fuck big government, fuck big taxes, long live federalism, fuck socialism, long live hard work, long live national defense, fuck a nanny state, long live individual rights, fuck cultural relativism.

All that other mess about freedom, I am pretty sure we are good to go.

3/27/2008 9:19:08 AM

You oppose the war?

Well, obviously you're a traitor, too.

But have you done anything to redeem yourself for not taking active steps to fix this failboat?

Or have you, like BEU, trusted in fate itself to restore your freedoms?

Hi.

I just flew in from Albequerque and boy are my arms tired.

I've been gone for a while, but like hot dogs, baseball, and Thomas Jefferson, too.

3/27/2008 2:08:56 PM

I'm not a Democrat, so I love America.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

The current administration is about to end. I have the confidence in our people and institutions to think that they are liable to set about correcting its mistakes once it's out of the way. Therefore, while some of the problems we face are not light, I believe them to be transient. Furthermore I believe we are coming to re-evaluate how our parties are operated in light of the system's manifest shortcomings of late, and I expect them to adjust themselves accordingly.

As it is I have essentially withdrawn my support from any political party, and while it is true that most of the candidates I support (on this board, through volunteering, and through donations) are Republicans, they are not all so, and I do not believe them to be slobbering lackeys of the current party leadership.

3/27/2008 6:09:42 PM

I think that we're going to see a significant shift in the GOP over the next couple of election cycles.

Oh, I agree with this. I'm just not sure it's going to go in the same direction you might want it to go in. The moderate Republican tradition of Eisenhower, the historical conservatism of Russel Kirk, and the love for all parts of America, especially the natural parts, of Teddy Roosevelt, and the idea of being a faithful steward of the treasury without simply slashing programs or throwing money at problems are past Republican ideals that I wish would be embraced outside of the New England Republicans.

3/27/2008 6:53:10 PM

i think there are a good number of moderate, libertarian-ish Republicans in the southwest (and to some extent in the rocky mountain states).

3/27/2008 7:04:34 PM

^ What makes you think it will change?

Serious question, I just dont see it. I guess i need some "hope"

3/27/2008 11:56:05 PM

If the economy does well, life will be good.

If the economy goes poorly, expect more ultra religious banter.

Hell yeah, noone's proud of Rockefeller and Chafee these days and they should be. They could have saved the GOP from the far-right if people had listened in 1964.

(except for the Rockefeller drug laws)

3/30/2008 10:21:15 PM

well, '64 is certainly not the root of where the GOP lost its way.

though i'd definitely prefer the Rockefeller types to today's GOP
