| Hi PatrickHenry,
Based on your name which reflects a dead historic patriot, I'm guessing you are a libertarian? For some reason libertarians like to take the names of dead patriots, they are not that creative, so I am guessing that is your politics.
As a libertarian, you would not even relate to a conservative or a conservative Republican because libertarians tend to be big social liberals who want open borders, lots of drugs, prostitution and pretty much anything to the point of anarchy (in my opinion from reading them).
Republicans don't claim perfection and I would say there is a lag at this time between the politicians and the Republican voters on the issue of illegal immigration.
I would also say that I have an issue with Republican politicians seemingly lacking confidence despite being the majority party.
When Clinton first came to office and he passed gays in the military. His co-President wife attempted to confiscate a seventh of the US economy in a failed attempt at socialized medicine.
That brought in a Republican wave featuring the Contract with America.
Most of the Contract with America, welfare reform, tax reduction, and prosecution of all the crimial acts during Clinton such as Enron were done under Republican leadership.
I could go on and on, but the simple statement regarding this party is it works, the people are family types mostly that believe you should try and be more self reliant, and we wish all success in life.
You should have directed this at Democrats, they had meetings trying to establish what their core values are this last month (meaning they had none before that). LOL
God Bless America, take care PH. |
