I don't think it's that we're more conservative, it's just that we look at things and go "Now how is this going to screw everything up?".

You hear a lot more about Obama in the news that McCain these days so it's natrual that we will pick him apart more

 
Here are some delawhere? jokes from David Letterman:

Another installment of 'Get to Know Delaware.' (Voiceover: "In 1894, the Battle of Newcastle ended after General Thaddeus Rutledge signed the

Treaty of Edgemoor in Delaware. I just made that up, because I don't

know the first thing about Delaware. This has been *Get to Know Delaware

"Historic tourist attractions, such as Independence Hall and the Franklin Institute, and breathtaking natural attractions, such as the Allegheny National Forest . . . . can be found in Pennsylvania, which is right next to Delaware. This has been 'Get To Know Delaware.'

^^^ Probably not, but its AOL, it's not some joke that I manipulated. So don't ask me, ask the 300,000 that have voted on it.

 
That's right ^^

And seriously DK, I've said it before, I can't be offended with this stuff, I don't take it THAT serious.

I just sometimes forget that others do, so I'll apologize in advance for those that I accidentally offend. (<- disclaimer)

and the thread heading is ------ 'just for fun ~ thick skin required'

 
Well,you guys and gals want to have some fun? Great...

Explain to me what are the fundamental ideology difference between Reps and Dems. I have heard a lot about lliberals and not so liberals, semi-socialists and americans 100%, the elephant and the donkey??????, etc.

But how are they different?

 
^^ Question of the day right there DK. Anymore they aren't very different.

I will list the main reasons why I became a Republican.

1. I believe strongly in Pro-life. I have many reasons for doing so, as I'm sure there are those with life experiences that have them believe Pro-choice. (I don't want to debate it, I'm just stating)

2. I am very much in favor of small government. I firmly believe that our country and economy is better off when we have our own money in our pockets to spend. I don't think that some beaurocrat knows how to spend it better than I do. ($900 toilets seats is perfect example.)

3. I am a conservative plain and simple. I believe in family values, and that those family values have been under attack for a long time.

4. I am a christian, and even though both parties are extemely hippocritical, the Republican party still represents those values the closest.

However, the republican party platform has things in it that I don't really agree with, but its closest to my views.

However, the republican party platform has things in it that I don't really agree with;

1. I hate smoking, cigarettes, etc. Republicans fight for big tobacco, I don't.

2. I'm tired of big oil. I want other sources of energy NOW.

3. They love tax cuts for the top 1%, and I see the theory behind that, but I want to see THE FAIR TAX implemented. It would really help even things out for the working families. check it out at http://www.fairtax.org/site/PageServer

Thanks DV. I do really appreciate you taking your time and explaining this to me. I was not into politics in Puerto Rico, I hated it, and have not made an effort to really understand politics in USA .

But that is going to change now and want to teach my kids, one of the is already old enough to vote, that they have to be aware of the political area since they are part of this country and are accountable for that.

But I want to be smart. I am not Rep, not Dem. I plan to vote for the best candidates or at least the ones with, in my limited understanding, have the best plataform.

I know this thread meant to be funny, as well as the McCain thread, so if you think is best to create a new thread for this topic.... :bio: I think is a good idea.

Sure new thread DK

One more serious note, encourage your kid to register to vote if not already.... there is a time window that closes before the election date... and if he is away at school he can vote early when home or have an absentee ballot sent before the deadline to his school address. No one will know who he votes for in the booth or by absentee, so no peer pressure there.
