Republican hypocrisy driving people from the party

I looked at your historic polling data and to the far right the columns labeled leaning either Republican or Democrat are much more telling.

If you compare the "leaning" data from today vs. the data from 2008 you will see that the Democrats are the ones losing voters.

 

RINO's are the main faction in the Party. Next is fundamentalist Christians.

Dems are losing the youth vote, but Reps are not winning them.

 

Gender identity has absolutely nothing to do with biology. Just because you're one gender , and you feel you're another gender, it doesn't make it so. It's called common sense, why don't you try it sometime.

 

I know. Yet, you seem to be very confused in what you are saying.

BTW, science is not equal to common sense. (You should probably refer to it more often.)

 

I'm not confused at all, I have basic biology backing my stance up. And yet again, your post proves you completely lack common sense.

 

Yes indeed, some people can't reproduce their DNA, and the 97% still practice homosexual learned behavior.

 

Whatever. In any case, there is a lot more to consider than you seem willing to.

We need to disagree and move along.

 

No, you want to just take things in to account that proves something that you wish to be true, but wishing will never make it true. The fact is, if you have the (XY) cchromosome it's impossible to be a woman. It's as simple as that.

 

Not that Democrats/Liberals are perfect, because they are NOT. But the SHOW that the Republicans/Conservatives are putting on these days... is simply spectacular.

That is what I'm seeing with my own eyes; so are millions of other Americans.

 

Right wing hypocrites cannot answer that; or is it that they DO NOT answer that?

I'm a follower of Christ and I know some things from the Bible.

Yep. Many are 'selective' in what they think/believe or are concerned with from Scripture. With certain things, they wish to be legalistic... and other things they view as casual guidelines or that particular things don't matter anymore. While it isn't intentional, most people possess and retain a 'customized' faith. They will SAY that they believe as other Christians or religious people do... but they are quite 'human' and proceed to anthropomorphize or romanticize things from the Bible. It happens all the time; people are HUMAN. To make a long story short, only Jesus' sacrifice causes people to be "redeemed", because NO ONE keeps or honors ALL that God has demanded.

And these people literally MIXING religion into politics (or vice versa)... surely cause more troubles for mankind than they typically know or acknowledge. Beware those people.

Yeah, it's weird by today's standards... for sure. (It just tells me how terrible PEOPLE can be.)

Yep. You ARE definitely touching upon the indications that many on the "Right" will put on a show about their "beliefs", rather than serve others in that same belief. They HAMMER and FORCE their beliefs... rather than aid others by sharing their burdens (which can come in many different forms). I think their 'faith' is lacking... because they exhibit the literal NEED to impose their beliefs, as opposed to exercising the same as a living example. Again, they are more apt to impose upon others, rather than serve them. Jesus (The Christ) was an AMAZING servant in all that He did; that is what proved to MANY that he was surely worth regarding overall.

These people using the Bible and other 'religion' to formulate LAWS for everyone else, are blowing it BIG TIME. Of all the people in history, Jesus Christ could have gotten POLITICAL and been successful. But His goal was to speak to people's HEARTS and show them the MOST excellent way (which is LOVE).

Here are the attributes of "LOVE" as Jesus Christ taught/exhibited:

And for those claiming to have some 'connection' to God/Jesus, just see if they consistently (yet not perfectly) exhibit the following qualities:

Now, there are many more things that one can learn from the Bible; but when phonies and HYPOCRITES (especially of the political variety) come to impose some THING or LAW upon your self of others... check them by the above. Many will not measure up and you must either steer clear of or perhaps oppose them.

I respect those who do not believe as I do; for if God cannot by His power and love reach them in His way over time... what power do 'I' have that cannot be unleashed via the LOVE of Christ?

And yes... I'm SICK of hypocrites, especially those who form-up on the RIGHT and hijack the very Gospel itself for their own political purposes. Even so, I know that it will BACKFIRE catastrophically upon all such people. Even lately, Pope Francis has rightly warned many of similar things. The hypocrisy will not go on in perpetuity.

 

The Republican Party will embrace any philosophy or ideology that comes along If they think it will win elections
for 60 years The democrats Was the major party 1932 to 1992
And Controled the house of representatives with the exception of two years in the 1940s
Remember when the republicans gained control the house of representatives the republican leaders did not say what they would do to help the country
They made two different statements
They hope obama will tail
And that the republican party's main objective would be to make obama a one term president
Nothing about the debt
Nothing about abortion
Nothing about the deficit
Only about get obama

 

A lot of them seem to be going indie/libertarian. They're looking for someone worthy to vote for and they're not looking to the Left.

 

IMO, your views are way out there. You've made it clear that you are far Left, so I don't take what you write seriously.

 

But in a nation of free men, why is it anybody's business except for the consenting adults involved? IOW, why do we allow the government to intrude in citizens' personal lives in the first place? If a fella wants six wives and there are six women who want to be married to one guy... who cares? Or if a fella wants six husbands for that matter...

So you believe that government should be used as a tool to shape society in a manner that pleases you?

- - - Updated - - -

Precisely.

 

now i think y'all are just making things up to hear yourselves talk. the role of government isn't to shape society at all, it is to protect the "individuals" of that society so that they can shape it themselves. it is precisely this social engineering through the violent force of government that any liberty loving individual should be against. micro-managing social norms through government mandate is bringing us nearer and nearer a society ruled by the lowest common denominator and special interest groups made up of state protected "minorities". as the left's pseudo-intellectuals invent more and more of these protected groups, we keep giving them more and more special privileges not afforded the majority. chief among these special privileges recently seems to be the right to redefine reality to suit their "special" needs and desires.

 

Well, we'll see where we both land in the final analysis.

Stay tuned.

 

I'm sure we can agree that the GOP is in a sorry shape, but the other option isn't any better at all.

 

Well, it is ultimately up to the PEOPLE to choose something.

I was never one to look at political choices and utter, "Ah... perfect!!"

 

They are still blaming the economy on Reagan. How many hear ago was that? How many Dem prez since?

 

This is actually a legitimate argument. When people don't put more focus on fixing the divorce problem in this country, it does make the rest of their argument look bad. But most people who want the legal definition of marriage changed are lying to themselves. They simply need something to be angry about. And it really doesn't go much deeper than that. They seek out perceived injustices just to feel that their lives have some kind of meaning by taking on some kind of petty crusade. And once they accomplish what they set out to do, they just seek out another one. And if none exists, they'll create one. They always have to be fighting for something because they can't ever be happy with the way things are. They are addicted to being angry. And very few of them actually realize this. Which is what makes them such nasty, negative people.

 

It hasn't been "anybody's business" since Lawrence v Kansas. The issue isn't government intruding on citizen's personal lives, it's citizens demanding government recognition, benefits, and I suppose approval and support of their personal lives, along with the legal architecture to either sue or criminalize anyone who doesn't give them the same blessings. In Brown v Buhman, the courts struck down Utah's cohabitation law, So yes, a fella can live with 6 women, and call them all wives if he chooses, although only one will be a legally recognized wife. So go ahead, get all the wives you can afford.

 

You want gay marriage legalized. In other words, you support them getting state perks that heterosexuals have. Why should they have rights that polygamists don't have or that people who are single don't have?

If you were really serious about equality, this would be your approach. Instead, you are merely championing gay sex over polygamy or abstinence.

 

Many people are advocating for that.

It makes sense.

BTW, you probably won't see people fighting for polygamy on a massive scale anytime soon; but you/others can campaign for it, if you wish.

 

Polygamy? Why should people be treated special by the state because of their sexual unions?

Singles should be afforded the same rights.

 

Yes. It will be fought for by some, not others. But there will be fights over it.

Questions that will be answered in courts and legislatures.

Which rights are you suggesting? Not exactly sure what you mean.
