I really hope that's the minority.

Sending United States military into foreign territory?--That's not "national defense." That's "national offense."
, but that the point that I was also trying to make.I'm not going anywhere sweetheart. I'm a member and am here to stay. We'll make nice-nice I promise.
Do you even know what a Neo-Geo is, you fucking pituitary retard?


That is Very true. According to my Uncle while on his sub the Navy did a lot back in the Cold War with subs spying on Russian ships all the while running silent. The point is the SR71 was the masterpiece of the CIA and had no equal, there was no counter punch to the unit so therefore it was dominant and kept nations on their heels. I don't know why I need to explain this.
Back on topic. I vote McCain.
Nixon/Ford was the last of the classic Republicans and I wonder if we'll see a return to them if they lose this time around.
ump to the Republicans: if they lose, I think they may find themselves forced to reassess and come up with a "new" Republican (or rather go back to the classic Eisenhower/Nixon) to compete. I think it will be a fascinating battle of ideas and help them.
Some people feel that Nixon helped invent the new Republicans, and is therefore one of them. I have to say, based on what I know about 60's politics, that I agree.

While Nixon helped invent the current Republicant tactics, Nixon was very much a post new deal liberal republican. It was Goldwater that was responsible for the ideology of the new Republicans.
I think Bobak was referring to the Ideological slant.
I would also separate the NEW Republicans from the MODERN Republcian'ts.
New Republicans: 64-1993 (Goldwater, Regan, Bush 41)
Modern Republcan'ts: 1994-Current (Bush 43, Frist, Delay)

Unfortunately he actually owns a Neo.
You'd have to look outside of unrelated to know that though

And either way, I may have been mistaken... But this troll asshole is still a retard.![]()
Absolutely, and that actually helps parse out what I was thinking: Tactics, Nixon. Ideology, definitely Goldwater.
Where was Goldwater from?![]()

Wow, tell me how you really feel! I am very proud of my family. A lot of them have served this Great Nation since World War II and my family continues to do so till this very day. In this Country you get what you work for. There is no guarantee of wealth or success, you have to earn this. The land of opportunity, it's there for the taking, there are no handouts. And when you redistribute wealth, you punish those who worked hard for their dream.
Look at how bad Government can screw up things and abuse power. Now they want to increase it, grow the system and increase taxes to do this? This will only compound the issue and once taxes are increased it is VERY hard to get that taken away.
What do you think will happen to all those businesses that will be taxed out of some of their profits, they are just going to say "Oh well, that's the way it is." No, they will lay off thousands of people, it's happening now. Look at GM, look at Ford, look and XM/Sirius. Massive layoffs to recoup profits and now you increase their taxes, it'll cut into prosperity. Living in this Country is not a guarantee of wealth, you have to earn it. It’ll also cut back on prosperity. If you work too hard and enter a higher tax bracket, you can actually make LESS with the new taxes added to your level. This is counter productive.
