CACashRefund Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 it means that they have more republicans out there than democrats and some of them arent even our leaders anymore, ronald reagan is dead, and then you have the most random ass people dan quayle, arnold schwarzenegger, ted kennedy, tom lantos, it is very edited. I mean if someone could do the research im sure you could come up with a list conveying the opposite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Wayne and Ronald Reagan don't need to be there. But the next time Bill O'Reilley supports the Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld war in Iraq atleast you'll know the pool of experience from which they draw there decisions...

guerillaeye Posted October 22, 2005 Author Share Posted October 22, 2005 exactly, king bling. the list was creqted with an agenda, therefor there must have also some demon-cratic political forces that were ommited from the field because of some not-so-attractive military records, and some republicans with spotless hero-status records that were looked over as well, to show how "fucked up" republicunts are. republlicans are, i suppose by nature, smarter, so im sure more of them sought out and found ways out of the draft and/or service, yet they sent our children, friends and family to fight and die for phantom, political causes. its hipocritical and downright dastardly... i think that is what Sen. Howard W. Carroll was trying to show... how heroic the demoncrats are contrasted with the anti-hero republicans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
