Tell us why you vote Republican. And if you make a claim - PROVE IT!

[EdwardBaiamonte]

I vote Republican for the same reason I vote Democrat... or Independent or Libertarian or any other party... because I believe a particular candidate is the best person for the job.

If he's a Democrat, he isn't fit to be the county dog catcher.

Some people are independents. This means they are independent of the brains necessary to know the difference between freedom and government.

 

[SmarterThanTheAverageBear]

So tell us why you vote Republican.

Tell us which of their policies have worked in the last 15 years. And be able to prove it. No wild claims without evidence. Opinion pieces aren't evidence. Win us over with "facts".

Hey RDean, here is another Republican policy that worked , The GM bailout. Like it or not, the Bush Administration initiated that, and it worked wonderfully.

A Republican Policy?

G.O.P. Senators Oppose Auto Bailout

Republicans blast auto bailout plan - USATODAY.com

A total automobile-industry shutdown from a liquidation of GM and Chrysler would have cut 2.63 million jobs from the U.S. economy in 2009, according to a study by the Center for Automotive Research released just hours before the Treasury announced its stake sale. The bailout saved or avoided the loss of $105 billion in transfer payments and the loss of personal and social insurance tax collection in 2009 and 2010, according to CAR.

The auto bailout will rank as “one of the most important interventions, maybe the most important, in U.S. economic history,” Sean McAlinden, CAR’s chief economist, who led the analysis, said yesterday in a telephone interview. Without it, “the upper Midwest would still be a gaping, double-digit unemployment hole in the economy, 600,000 retirees would’ve lost their pensions.”

So the question becomes, "Was it a Republican Policy" if they were all against it? Or was it a policy presented to Bush who was willing to grasp at straws because every single GOP policy for his entire term was fiasco and a disaster? No one can possibly believe this idea came from Bush. He had no real ideas, only delusions of grandeur. And he's quiet today because he's at least smart enough to know his presidency was a failure. I can't believe he had the nerve to put together a Presidential Library. What's in it? A "pamphlet"? Some notes?

Oh, I'm sorry I just assumed that since you give Obama credit for every piece of legislation passed while he was in office you would do likewise with a Republican President.... My bad


I guess


And you damn well know that BOTH parties favored bailing out the auto industry you dishonest little shit. The only substantive complaints were in the details.

 

[Anathema]

So you didn't even bother to look it up. It was a test which I knew you would fail. That' what Republicans do. They fail. I've posted links to this legislation many times. Why would you look at it this time and not the many other times?

Nope. I've got better things to spend my time on. I'm not a Republican.... I'm a Conservative. That means most of my views are based on Belief and Faith, regardless of anything else.

In his first month in office, Obama overturned a 20-year ban on loaded guns in national parks AND wildlife refuges. Licensed gun owners from any state can now carry concealed, loaded weapons on federal land. Sounds pretty extreme to me.

A law that 90% of gun owners violated regularly. Anyone stupid enough to allow themselves to be disarmed on public property is a moron who probably shouldn't have a gun to begin with. Sorry, it doesn't meet the criteria I set anyway... it simply reinstated the Bush Era policy which had been blocked by a judge. Only 27 Democrat Senators voted for it as well.

Not even a year later, he also reversed a law which included a ban on transporting firearms by train. Amtrak travelers can now carry unloaded, locked weapons in baggage they checked.

Legislation introduced by a REPUBLICAN, not a Democrat. 28 of 60 Senate Democrats voted for it.... not exactly overwhelming support from the Left.

And this is why the Brady Foundation gave Obama a grade of "F" on gun control. Tell me you know who Brady is. You can't be so dumb you don't know who that is. Then again, you don't seem to know how to use Google. Is a 10 second search "research"? To a Republican is it.

Mr. Brady was the other individual who failed to duck fast enough when Mr. Hinkley started spraying bullets back in 1981. Personally, I couldn't care less what the Brady Foundation for Communism thinks of anything.

Want to try again? It should be simple.... show me a single PRO-GUN-OWNER piece of legislation which was introduced, supported, and signed by a Democrat in Massachusetts or Washington in the past 15 years. I don't need to do the research because I know that Democrats aren't pro-gun. I live on the front lines of Democrat Anti-Gun initiatives here in the Communistwealth of Massachusetts.

Like you know anything about facts or the truth. Lame thread. I vote conservative because liberalism is a mental disorder.

You forgot to prove it.

Proof...the thread starter

more punts..so far ive seen maybe three people give an answer...Three....The rest have just trolled because thats what they do. Another thing that shows us what is wrong with politics.

Lighten up, the thread itself is a troll piece. Those three were kinder than the op deserved.

how about just answering the question and if Dean decides he rather troll, then it looks bad on him.

Dweeb has already gotten far more respect and consideration than he deserves.

more nothing

You have too.

 

[RKMBrown]

I'll vote for the republicans as long as they agree with some of my ideas in post 100#. Libertarian is a no, no.

Yeah you'll vote for republicans who are communists.

Did you read my list in post 100? I want some government but I don't want the other side of the extremist coin. I support our science institutions and don't believe we should be a society of savages...

Both extremes are wrong.

Yeah cause if we didn't have government spending we'd be living in caves...

 

[GHook93]

Simply because of people like you rdean! Nuf said!

 

[Darkwind]

It's ok you wacked out right wing crazies. Just admit that even the CRAZIEST, most LOYAL Republican on these boards can't come up with a SINGLE fucking piece of legislation proposed by Republican that was advantageous to ALL Americans.

The best you seem to have is to try and turn the question around and ask why anyone would vote for a Democrat.
Let me answer that. It's because a Democrat is not a Republican. And I like to be kissed before I am fucked and the Republican won't kiss anybody EXCEPT an ultra wealthy person all the while putting the fucks to anybody that is not ultra wealthy. And I ain't ultra wealthy. Are you all?

The repeal of Obamacare is the single best proposed legislation the Republicans have authored in the past five years.

I guess that means you lose.

And it will hurt millions. Just what they want. Why? I don't know. Doesn't seem American.

No, it will help millions and give back the very thing that those millions wanted.

Like I said. You only want to know which policies they support that you can accept.

That is not even a consideration.

 

[Darkwind]

The policy of opposing Obama's radical agenda, and stymieing the Democrats has helped the American people, and American, more than anyone can ever say.

Now, let's look at what the OP really wants to know.

What Republican policy, that he agrees with, helps the American people.

The answer to that is of course, none. He doesn't want to help the American people. He cannot grasp that it is not the function of Federal government to help individual citizens or people in general, and is looking for a means to prop up a failing ego as the mid-term election draws closer and closer.

I'll settle with "which GOP policy helps the American people". Since you didn't list any, I'm guessing this was your answer:

The answer to that is of course, none.

Two things.

It is not the job of the Federal Government to help the American people, but to further and strengthen America. The job of helping the people falls to the States and local governments. People who understand the Constitution know this.

The second thing is that any policy that derails the current Democrat focus HELPS the American people.

LIke I said, you are not interested in hearing what helps the American people. You are interested in bashing Republicans. An intellectually bankrupt exercise.

I'm on the right because people like rderp are on the left.

Grampa Murked U - Where, if anywhere, does personal responsibility fit into that? I made shit wages when I started out in life. In fact my first two bosses only hired me because of the tax incentives they got for hiring an ex con.

See? It's people like me who would help people like you. Who would you help? Apparently, only yourself.

Your kind of help isn't needed. And all "your people" do is try to mock me for my past. A bunch of intolerant tards. Judgmental pricks

It's not your past being mocked. It's your ignorant positions.
I got the GI bill. That helped me immensely. I couldn't do what I do without it. The government helped me and I support the government to help others.

I don't know what you do. Whatever it is, it's probably terrible.

Who the fuck is Dana and how, as a fucking noob to this site, could she agree with this post? Just joined I presume and pretends to think she knows what the fuck is goin on.

If you agree then you're dumber than I thought. My past has been a punching bag for the trolls on the left for some time now. It is their easy out to ignore the thread topic and instead divert attention to something less damning to their ideology.
Not surprised you wouldn't admit it.

We elect a government for a reason. To regulate the economy and to defend this nation. You know next to crap about the political working of this nation.

Losertrians are a joke. You want corporations to have free reign to rule over us.
