Dear Republicans

I seriously question how you even manage to say "I am a Republican" without the slightest feeling of shame or stupidity. All you Americans who worship Rand Paul for spending 13 hours basically paraphrasing what the Obama Administration has said about its drone policy (Both Rand Paul and Obama agree that drones should only be used against Americans in extreme conditions) really do amaze me on how Americans fail to learn anything from their mistakes (George Bush). That coupled with the fact that Rand Paul wants to illegalize abortions (along with fellow Republican Rick Perry who wants to dispose of the income tax along with direct election of senators) really makes me wonder how far Republicans will go to deprive the Country of its rights. I also question why Republicans dont understand the meaning of "control". Gun control doesnt mean taking away your guns, it means making it harder for criminals/mentally ill people from shooting up your stupid kids. Edit: Then theres Donald Trump who believed Obama wasn't born in the United States (well how did he gain presidency then?) and praised Dennis Rodman (who absolutely did nothing) as an excellent diplomat (lol). But maybe Donald Trump and Mitt Romney really do have a point, why should Obama be taking money from the top 5% (let alone the top 1% who own more than 40% of the nation's wealth).

      Right, so I REALLY want to address the direct election issue you have. The direct election of senators was not initially in the Constitution, it was added in the 17th Amendment. His reasoning for wanting the removal of this amendment? I would suppose the same as the reason it was left out of Section II of Article I, which was to give states their method for protecting the sovereignty upon the Federal stage. As for the drones, really? Comparing Obama's drone policy to that of Paul? No crap both would use drones in extreme circumstances, but really? What of the fact that four American have been killed (I'll give you al-Awlaki, so let us call it three) by strike under Obama? What of the ambiguity in the Justice Department's message regarding drone policy? Pulling out the Bush card is ridiculous at this point, especially considering his authorization of drone attacks were far less promiscuous. For abortion, they believe that an unborn child is still a human who deserves protection under the law. Is there anything truly vile or chauvinistic about that? As for gun control, you are partially correct. Gun control does not inherently mean taking away guns. Note the word I used: inherently. It is perfectly rational for them to fear that, if left to fate, guns would eventually be taken away with more useless and unsuccessful Assault Weapon Bans.

      • 1) who the -blam!- is Rand Paul and why should I give a shit? 2) Nice over generalizations, bro 3) As for your remark about gun control; exactly... now why can't the democrats get it through their head that they can control guns without going full retard trying to do things like ban a gun because it looks scary, even though that model is rarely involved in gun related homicide?

            Oh sorry guise, I forgot to mention Donald Trump who believed Obama wasn't born in the United States (well how did he gain presidency then?) and praised Dennis Rodman (who absolutely did nothing) as an excellent diplomat (lol). But maybe Donald Trump and Mitt Romney really do have a point, why should Obama be taking money from the top 5% (let alone the top 1% who own more than 40% of the nation's wealth).

                The last part of your post is foolish, as gun control nearly always makes things worse and harms children the most. Hindering responsible citizens doesn't help anyone, as they actually require their firearms lawfully, disturbed people will not. Funny how all the mass shootings happen where firearms are banned.

                  • Failed to comment on how their own party members are saying that their current direction is marginalizing them and turning them off to new blood and is making them appear to be 'the party of old, rich, white men' and/or is in a 'death spiral' while other members are politely telling them to go to hell.

                  • [quote]I seriously question how you even manage to say "I am a Republican" without the slightest feeling of shame or stupidity. [/quote]Generalization, Ad Hominem. I refuse to feel shame for the party I'm registered with just because you feel I should. [quote]All you Americans who worship Rand Paul for spending 13 hours basically paraphrasing what the Obama Administration has said about its drone policy (Both Rand Paul and Obama agree that drones should only be used against Americans in extreme conditions) really do amaze me on how Americans fail to learn anything from their mistakes (George Bush).[/quote]If Obama was so adamant on agreeing with Rand Paul, why was he being so vague when Rand Paul wanted just a simple answer? I don't agree with Rand Paul's decision to Filibuster, nor do I agree with ANY filibuster. That includes the other Republican Filibusters, and Wendy from Texas because they're basically nothing more than really long temper tantrums, but it was more apparent this time when Wendy did it. I also don't know what you're referring too when you say mistake and George Bush when referring to us since Obama is basically Bush 2.0. [quote]That coupled with the fact that Rand Paul wants to illegalize abortions (along with fellow Republican Rick Perry who wants to dispose of the income tax along with direct election of senators) really makes me wonder how far Republicans will go to deprive the Country of its rights. [/quote]Abortion is a tricky subject to begin with, there's obviously going to be some touchy views on it, but the least you can do is not resort to insults over the entire Republican Party over the actions of the few. If it makes you feel nay better (which I doubt it will), I say Abortion is fine for the first three months since if a woman wanted an abortion, she would've gotten it by then, but allowing it any time during the pregnancy is basically making it another form of Birth Control which is what it's not meant to be for. Please though, do go on about how one subject is "depriving the country of rights". Don't even bring up Gay Marriage, that has NOTHING to do with Republican Legislators in D.C.. [quote]I also question why Republicans dont understand the meaning of "control". Gun control doesnt mean taking away your guns, it means making it harder for criminals/mentally ill people from shooting up your stupid kids.[/quote] No one said we're afraid of the big bad government taking away our guns, but Gun Control is silly since it's only brought up during a major shooting that was going to happen regardless of measures you pass. It's statistically show time and again that gun control in America doesn't work so why are you so adamant to push for it? Nor do I take too kindly to someone calling MY children "stupid" when you can't even use correct grammar. Good day mister who I assume is a [i]liberal[/i].

                  • Not really a fan of Rand Paul. That 13 Hour filibuster was in an empty Senate chamber because of a snow storm, it takes more then talking in a mostly empty room to impress me.

                  • Keep the idiotic political troll threads on the conservative side, please. Being reasonable in a troll thread doesn't make you edgy, and I'd prefer to keep the stupidity one sided.
