I finally figured out Republicans
If you challenge a Republican Dogma and force a Republican to think they do not know what to do. They just go berserk and start ranting, spewing and lying. It's really quite funny. I have seen it happen to George Bush. A Republican in my State Senate just punched another Senator, I would say that qualifies for not knowing what to say.

You just posted my proof. You take a statement out of context first because you know you cannot refute my post. Then you start ranting and spewing.

Please explain how I am ranting/talking like that.

I cant really DO much with your post because there is nothing to dicuss about. Cant really lie about something that is taken out of the dictionary, unless you are saying that the dictionary lies. Im obviously not going beserk because im not TYPING IN CAPITAL LETTERS LIKE YOU 100% OF THE TIME :P
And tell me what I am spewing out of what I just typed in my first post. That I just proved that you are a Republican because you, rant and lie. Not to mention make us laugh most of the time so its quite funny what you type. I just proved that you are 3 out of the 5 specs. that YOU yourself posted so you infact just insulted yourself apparently.
And dont call this a rant or spewing because I am clearly just stating facts that you dont want to hear. So I infact DO know what I am doing. Kthxbye

Stupidity is non-partisan. There are stupid, rhetoric spewing, intolerant, bigoted, Republicans as well as Democrats.

Personally as an outsider i don't really think the republicans and democrats are so terribly different. Both partiesand their members suffer from the same inadequacies as the other. For instance i am not particularly impressed with the way the democrats are dealing with being in power.. Just as the republicans were nothing to cheer for.

You statement is a sweeping generalization worthy of Rumsfeld, Bush and Oreilly. Fighting fire with fire only creates a bigger fire. I don't see how your way of debating is any different from the republicans you seem to despise.

I am just speaking of my experience with everyday people over many years. I have them in my own family. It would help if you could post anything that would actually refute my post. All you did was post the names of 3 huge Republican lying ranters, show the other side. I am holding my breath.

That is a classic case of a strawman argument.

For a post that there is nothing to discuss about, you certainly do alot of discussing.

Maybe you should call your pub "The Strawman"?

It seems to have become your favourite word.
