Isn't it time for Dems and Repubs to come together and agree that yes Repubs are stupid and immoral?

Oh, there's nothing wrong with Republicans. Not real ones, anyway. The Republican Party of today has been infected with a problem: not Conservatism, but extreme Conservatism. It's only the Neocons, as they are also called, who still support Bush, depsite everything he has done, or lacked to do. It's not Cons I have a problem with, it's sheep.

I doubt it.... stupid is as stupid does... just make sure you get rid of the Republicans at the next election....

Okay...I'm sick of Democrats and Republicans alike dissing their opposing party. Let me clarify, if you are going to diss someone, at least have good supporting reasons to do it. Also, don't imply/say that someone is mentally retarded or stupid just because what they are doing in the office isn't what *you* would do. It's the equivalent of saying someone should *die* because they think differently than you do. \n\nI really wish people would grow up.

I'd say it is time for a complete political party overhaul.  In reality, neither party is really concerned about those they supposedly represent.  Unless you are talking about those who are in their pockets of course.  Both of the two major parties platform is not what they can do, it is based on what the other side didn't or couldn't do.  Empty promises from all sides.

Seems to me that you pretty much hit the nail on the head.  Both parties have their scandals, their morons, and their self-righteous flag-toting extremists.  It is easy to complain when you aren't held accountable for the decision, so Bush-bashing is becoming more popular than ever.  The Democrats, being liberals in most regards, also have more division within their party.  Having said that, if it was up to some of the Republicans today, we'd still have blacks as slaves and women working only for the family.  What I'm saying is, both sides have their great minds and their fools, but historically the Democratic party has been more influencial and active in promoting equality.

They can't go with the real issues because they are lost in what to do about it. Reps can only hope to get their evangelicals motivated to vote for only one issue: gay marriage. It seems stupid to me to affiliate yourself to a party only because of a single issue. Dems talk about real issues and reps want trivial issues.

For the same reason Republicans are, they're politicians.  Both sides need to get their heads out of their behinds and think about what's best for the people of this country, not their parties.

Never. It's not time to gloat. Both main parties have been sitting on their hands only thinking about their own necks, not about what is best for our country. \nThere is on reason to qloat.

While I am a Republican, I know many Democrats who have a decent moral compass. The majority of them seem to care quite a bit about the issues you mentioned. I think you answered your own question correctly when you mentioned the Golden Rule. That is a moral code that is easy to understand and apply to real life, yet does not require God (although yes, there are religious Democrats). \n\nHowever, to be honest I know many Democrats (and even people too far *left* to be Democrats) who fail to comprehend morality, and have a morally relativistic "everything goes" code of ethics, and who cannot tell the difference between the minor sins of the US during the Cold War or the War on Terror versus the horrific people who oppose us. (For example, the Abu Graib prison scandal: Yes, clearly it shouldn't have happened, but the people on the other side of this conflict do *much* worse, and never even acknowledge that what they did was wrong--and yet many on the left treat hacking someone's head off with a knife as the equivelent of what happened in Abu Graib... That's pretty good evidence of a lack of a moral compass.) \n\nThe greatest difficulty in answering this question is that, with only (effectively) two political parties in the US, and most people in one or the other, there is no way to answer for such a large portion of the populace. Democrats are perhaps 40% of the population; no doubt with so many in that group there are a whole slew of different moral codes and reasoning among them. This is true for Repubicans too.

No because both the top Democrats and top Republicans work together.  Let's be real-all politicians always say "it's time for a change."\nOr "we will do things differently."  \n\nThen in four years the people vote the ahole out and a politician from the other party says\n"it's time for a change."  Or "we will do things differently."  See above...\n\nThe American people (as all are) are fooled by this.  When I studied South American Politics there was always a caudillo...someone running saying "I'm for the people" or "I will give out free land, etc."\n\nThen when they got elected, they were just another dictator.  Same here-both Dems and Repubs say anything to get elected and both work for Corporate America.  \n\nCorporate America is anti-family and not on the side of the middle class.  Even if a vaginatator is elected (that's dictator for you politically correct folk) she will screw over the masses.\nWhy?  Cause if she goes against corporate America she will be assasinated.\n\nUnited we stand, divided we vote for jerk offs.

I came to the point where I truly believe that all parties of the government are corrupt a long time ago. It is really sad. The Progressives forget everything that Clinton did (Waco, and-God forbid-blow jobs) and The Conservatives forget everything Reagan did (Iran/Contra, etc) And we could come up w/ examples from EVERY President, ever. I wish we could get some patriots in the legislature who want to work together towards a common cause:the betterment of the United States Of America. Imagine what we could accomplish if we worked together!\nWhat I am saying is that instead of spending all our time telling each other how wrong they are, maybe we could come together and really compromise for the betterment of all?

perhaps each party should stop lying about each other. perhaps people should learn to compromise on the best points from each side for the betterment of our country instead of worrying about party lines.\n\ni mean really... who is all this hatred helping?

I'm a Republican... The majority of the Democrats are morally wrong, and are all for that stuff....  Its almost like a sickness... They whine and stomp their feet about our soldiers being over in Iraq, fighting for our Country, and then they whine and stomp their feet for gay rights, etc.....Does that make sense..... Scary bunch of people, huh...

You see by that first guy's answer that Dems really do believe the troops are stupid.\n\nNow, who is putting words in their mouths?

Democrat Principles and values? thats an oxymoron. I dont want to be paying for abortion through my taxes, I dont need my taxes raised up high, I dont want the economy to start to crumble, I dont need for the next 2 years nothing to be dont, because they are so busy investigating just one party over another. They need an outside non corruptable source to investigate everyone on capital hill, then maybe because their is a little fire under their butts then we will see some issues actually worked on and not manicures and pedicures (I am not talking about just the women either...)

You hit the nail on the head.  The Republicans think we are all stupid.  What I find really great is all the ideas the Republicans are coming up with now, the Democrates proposed years ago.  Remember when the Republicans laughed at Jimmy Carter for wanting Americans to conserve and use alternative fuels.  If we listed to Carter and did something about oil back then we wouldn't be in the mess we are now.  We wouldn't be fighting for control of the oil in Iraq and we wouldn't have such a high deficit in our tresuary now.  Republicans are so short sighted and not really too intelligent.  They see money and forget about using any common sense.  They believe the rest of America will get excited over $100 like they would.

I agree with you 100%.  Dems talk about blacks like they are stupid and NEED all those money wasting social programs.  Republicans  on the other hand encourage people of all colors to better themselves and not depend on the government to take care of them.\nI can't wait to see the hateful, childish name calling that this question is going to get from the "peaceful", "tolerant" Liberals.
