There's No Such Thing as a 'Reagan' Democrat...

WARNING: IF YOU DON'T LIKE CURSING, STOP READING NOW.
There's no such thing as a 'Reagan Democrat'.
They're ****ing Republicans, and they're polluting the **** out of this website.
Entitlement Reform?
Raise the age requirement for Medicare?
Guess what, dick-heads...
No sack of shit, right-wing prick is entitled to, nor deserving of, Chinese labor - nor labor from any other ****ing country overseas.
No trade reform = no entitlement reform.
PERIOD.
America's domestic welfare programs and our foreign trade policy are inextricably linked and I, for one, I'm fed up with pretending that they are not.
Between union-busting and cheap imports, all that's left for the American worker are low-wage table scraps, pink slips and food stamps.
To hell with you fake pieces-of-shit.
ENOUGH!
apparently tired of fighting mythical moles he has turned his sights on moderate democrats

29. That's Not What I See...

I see something quite different.
I see a DNC in 2012 that is a cloned twin of the GOP of the 1980's.
I see President Obama accepting unlimited corporate funds to finance his 2012 inauguration...
I see Charlie Crist - a Reagan Republican who has NOT changed his political positions one iota - filing papers to run against a Tea Party darling for Governor in Florida as a democrat...
I see Rahm Emanuel - Obama's former chief of staff - bending over backwards to bust the Chicago teachers' union, followed by Illinois Governor Quinn attempting to do the same to state employees and their union...
I see Democrat-Endorsed Torture...
I see Democrat-Endorsed Illegal Detention...
I see Democrat-Endorsed War...
And the conclusion I draw from these observations is that the Democratic Party continues to, inexorably, move to the right - in total lockstep with the GOP, (albeit keeping the appropriate distance as the Republican Party moves from simple fascism to pure lunacy).
Today's Democratic Party isn't your father's Democratic Party, but - arguably - it has morphed into your father's Republican Party.
I don't need a 'purity' test for my democratic candidates... but it sure would be nice to have a few ****ing democrats to vote for.
Hes obviously blind

96. I'm Not 'IDOLIZING' Anyone...
I'm asserting that the Democratic Party has taken a hard shift to the right, to the point that, today, the DNC is no different than the GOP was, of the 1980's.
Someone took the thread off on a tangent - and I responded... but I don't need a history lesson.
I need a ****ing political party to call home.
Im sure the communist party would love to have you

114. I'm not an advocate for a different party...
I'm an advocate for giving the boot to dip-shit fakes who endorse what were previously GOP platforms.

45. Bullshit. My mother was a Reagan Democrat.
She was unhappy with Carter and didn't like Mondale so she voted for Reagan twice.
And she wasn't alone.
Admitting to voting for Reagan this surely wont draw any hate from the angry DUmmie

So what were her core principles, then, that dems aren't sacrificing on the altar of compromise, today?

64. It Was A Simple F'ing Question, Proud...
What were her core principles, then (when she voted for reagan), that Democrats are not sacrificing, today?

84. Double-talk
The question was, what core principle did she hold then that democrats, today, have not sacrificed?
Sounds to me like your mother was what we'd call a moderate Republican, today, friend.
If that is the case - and I can't be 100% sure of this - if she would have called herself a moderate Republican TODAY, why on earth would she have called herself a democrat then, unless contemporary democrats have moved so far right that they have BECOME what we'd have called republicans, then?
I know that last sentence was a mess - but read it slow and I think my meaning can be pulled out.
The party has shifted to the right - and it is an ugly thing.

What were your mother's core principles that made her punch for Reagan, then, that Democrats, today, aren't sacrificing?
ANSWER: None.
There is no such ****ing thing as a Reagan Democrat.
They were, then as now, Republicans.

108. Yea... You Did.
"...both were pretty conservative, especially when it came to economic issues."
Walks like a Republican, Sounds like a Republican, and VOTES for a Republican.
And you still insist she was a Democrat.
Go figure.
It goes on and on, he just tries to fight anyone who doesnt blindly agree with him.

Relax.
Democrats aren't moving to the right on war, torture, detention, assassination, government by diktat and wiretapping.
They always endorsed those things; they're just hypocritical political oportunists who made issues because a Republican was in office.
Cases in point:
Wiretapping -- OK when Carter did it, i.e. Truong vs US, 1974. Bush> Not so much.
So-called torture -- Bad whn Bush did it. Cause for celebration when Obama uses the intel.
Assassination -- Clinton's missiles and Obama's drones. Bad for Bush.
War -- Bad for Bush and Reagan. OK, for JFK, LBJ, Clinton and Obama.
Detention -- Not so bad for FDR or Obama.
So, you see, DUmbass; it's not the Dems that have moved, you just forgot to get back in line after 2009.

That DUchebag has bigger mental problems than just being a leftist. Much bigger problems.

The little piker is starting an early run for the 2013 DOTY.
S/h/it's doing it right. :p

Someone needs to get laid. Really. :rant:
-
Like Snugs said, that isn't a move to the right, it just isn't what that particular tool wants to see. It's completely consistent with the Democrats' steady drift to a Leftist totalitarian bureaucratic welfare state.

I see an outraged assclown who doesn't understand history enough to know the difference between the two.

I don't understand what his point was, picking a fight with Ann, who clearly does not want to play. So what if her mother was a Republican? We get story after story of the DUmmies butting heads with their Repuke relatives at holidays. So what's the big deal?

Reagan Democrats were (are) conservative Dems. To try and act like conservative Dems are the same as Republicans is ridiculous. Sure there's some things they have in common, but to claim that just because they're conservative or blue dog that they're not Democrats makes no sense. There are Rockefeller (liberal) Republicans, but that doesn't mean they're Democrats. You might label them DINO's or RINO's, but that's still acknowledging they're of that political party.
