Republicans are largely an immoral bunch. Which is really odd, considering that this is their only complaint about democrats. For example, Monica Lewenski vs Larry Craig, Ted Haggard, Mark Foley, Rudy Giuliani, Bill O'Reilly, Arnold the Governator who allegedly had sex with a 16 year old when he was 28, et cetera. Clinton was immoral because his partner was a consenting adult?

Back to the point. Divorce rates are highest in the states that solidly vote Republican, and lowest in the states that solidly vote Democratic. Teen pregnancy per capital is highest in Republican areas, and lowest in Democrat strongholds. Really, just about every measure of moral values shows decadence in the heartland.

So my question is why do those people in solid Republicanland love sinning so much? The real question is, in light of their own life style, how do these people complain about Democrats who get married before jumping into bed and then sleep at night? Or is hypocrisy the new family value?

Ludacris wrote a song called Area Codes. You can see how his belt of, uh, maidens he's acquainted with lines up perfectly with the southern Republican Bible Belt.

funny most of my hoes are in the mid west states

And mine is in the shack by the garden, along with the rake and the shovel.

Guess Sir Mix-A-Lot has no real political affiliation. He doesn't seem to fall into either category.

Then again, there's not much you can expect from a song that used a beat sample from The Sugar Hill Gang.

I thought we complained about democrat's because they are a bunch of pansies when it comes to foreign policy.

Hah! Clinton was immoral because he was married to a lesbian! That, and he lied under oath to congress... and the grand jury..... and the American People...

HEY!! My area code wasn't red! I LOVE sinning. I think in the red colored areas you have, even if the majority vote Republican, all the sinning is being done by the Democratic minority. We Republicans come to take the women we want as wives, and then advocate celibacy or homosexuality for the Democrats... we don't want them breeding.

Don't forget Clinton committed his share of war crimes like both Bushes. Osama bin Forgotten hit a warship in the gulf, and Clinton bombed a medicine factory in Khartoum. Sudan. Reprisal attacks are crimes of war. Targeting civilian installations are clear violations of the international laws on how wars can be fought, and mixed use infrastructure is a dark gray area. Clinton even followed George HW Bush's lead and used nuclear weapons against the soldiers and civilian populace in Kosovo. Sure, he only used 1/10 as much fissile material as Daddy or Junior Bush in either Iraq adventure, but he deployed Depleted Uranium nonetheless. The stuff has a 4.5 billion year half life, leaving regions of Eastern Europe permanently contaminated. The stuff has been found to carry 45 miles or more in the wind, and a spec the size of a period on screen is 10,000 times what's required to cause cancer.

I don't get where the "Dems As Pansies" thing comes from? The democrats seem to fight wars more successfully. A lot of that seems to come from Republican's willingness to get America's you know what kicked in front of the whole world to see. Even John Wayne had the sense to choose his battles. You think it's manly, somehow, for Bush to say "I know I said 'bring it on' but PLEASE stop killing us, ok?"

Bingo

I like the Nixon photo. Isnt he the guy who got us out of Vietnam.... you know that unsuccessful and unnecessary war started by a Democrat who fought it like a pansy?

Nixon... great president. Whether the foreign policy complaint is neo-con or not... makes it no less true, though I did like Bomb dropping give em hell harry truman..... lovely democrat.

Yeah great president.

Haha. Ignore the facts... focus on the resignation speech. 58,196 U.S. servicemen dead from war related injuries in Vietnam with no successful outcome. This doesn't account for the amputations etc.. Nixon ended it. I figure all Democrats would find something embraceable about that. I guess not.

Just to pile on the absurdity of the neo con statement, here is a little foreign policy/war management scorecard for you.

Ron Regan---
+ Granada
+ Panama
+ El Salvador
+ Iran hostage recovery
+ Coldwar

Bush Sr.
+ Iraq

Bush Jr.
+ Lybia
+ Pakistan
+ Afghanistan
+ N. Korea
+ Iraq (if the Dems don't ruin it)

Clinton
+Kosovo
- Somalia
- Two unanswered embassy bombings
- Bombing of U.S. warship (Cole)

Carter
- Iranian Hostage Crisis

Kennedy
- Bay of Pigs
- Cuban Missle Crisis
- Vietnam

LBJ
- Vietnam


Electing a Democrat seems a sure way to embolden any enemy of the U.S..

Hey, there isn't a single red area code in my state, yet our governor just had to resign because he got caught spending over 80K on high priced hoes. Now we are being called the most progressive state because our Lt Governor that was sworn in as Governor yesterday is African American and blind.

Iraq a success cwbm?! Right....

Even Afghanistan is seriously struggling now too. The Republicans just love making war on everyone - no wonder the USA is no longer a particularly respected nation internationally.

If people like you stopped electing warmongering, remtarded idiots like G.W. Bush, you might gain some respect from the rest of the world and the whole terrorist threat would be far less of an issue

Iraq will be what we make of it. Right now, Iraq is trending towards stability. With proper funding and support(which the Dems would love to remove), I don't see why that would change. A stable, secular, semi-democratic Iraq would not be a success in your book?

Afghanistan was and remains a success. A proper mopup in Iraq should allow the U.S. to focus on the festering cockroach problem in Afghanistan.

Regarding warmongering:
1) Which happened first.... 9-11 or invasion of Afghanistan.. country hosting BinLaden... lets think about that a bit.
2) UK, and many other countries, are in Afghanistan, not just the U.S.. Obviously they see good reason to be there.
3) (D) Obama has been quoted as saying the military option needs to remain on the table for Iran and Syria. Ooooo... could almost vote for this guy.

I'm fairly sure I heard somewhere that Bush discussed the invasion of Afghanistan before 9/11 even happened - like in one of his early meetings soon after getting into the White House.

Yep good old Blair took us in there.... he's well respected now *cough* Blair would have attacked just about anywhere for Bush if they could both think of a reason to do so - maybe Fidel Castro's communism is getting out of control, let's go in there and start a civil war. Perhaps Africa needs reconquering by the West....I'm sure we can think of a legitimate reason for taking over.

Remaining on the table is one thing - but he also mentions a lot about diplomacy and looking for the diplomatic answer first

Bush pretty much woke up one morning and thought "let's have a little war today" so started the invasion - Iraq could have been solved with diplomacy rather than by igniting a sectarian civil war.

Excuse me Whym, I'm not trying to flame here, but ..
:f unnyup:fun nyup:funny up

hahahahahaha.

Ok. I got it out. I feel better. So you know, prior to 9/11, Bush's agenda was mostly domestic.

Excuse me boys....

Isn't this thread entitled "Promescuity in the Heartland + Bible Belt" ???

Let's get back on track and discuss the questions at hand - not the same old arguments had in other threads.

True true. Even the threads about Obama and Computer usage devolve to Bush bashing.

So..... here is an "On-Topic" question for the religious Democrat creator of this thread. Which are worse, religious yet promiscuous Democrats, or religious yet promiscuous Republicans?
