All of the failures of government in the last 40 years have come from the team effort of the republican and democratic party

On one hand I like many liberal policies and social programs, on the other hand liberals want to control everything I do except sex. The party supports anti-gun rights, and I could never live in a place like California with their high taxes and excessively restrictive building codes. Politicians on all sides are retarded, here's a woman who tried to ban water 'cause someone made it sound dangerous by making it sound all "chemical-ly"  (in New Zealand)

A few? And the cut off there is 35 years not 20

When people look at an electoral map they see where their base is strong, then they pour money into it. People are not changing their believes wildly all over the country. People have all sorts of feelings about local politicians that have nothing to do with their own political views.

edit - forgot the link

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_members_of_the_United_States_Congress_by_longevity_of_service





Ok, now compare that list to a list of short lasting senators and congressmen , and you will see that second list is WAY bigger, in comparison your list would look like a few people


I'm not sure how you think that fence riders don't sway presidential elections substantially, and how you don't think that political parties coming into power and making big changes scares a lot of these fence riders to sway back and forth between conservative and liberal, but it's like talking to wall. I'd think common sense would have some play, but I guess not.

Carry on with your ideas.

Why? The more days they work, the worse we get fucked.

so there's a chance a lot of off the books time could be useful

I do, you can afford it. You did well, now give back. That's what I mentioned earlier. A culture of selfishness and greed




But why should I pat for some lazy fuck with zero initiative, zero drive. Whos spends his money on a brand new phone yet can't pay his bills or for food. I'll give to a charitable organization. I will not pay more taxes so the white trash of america can shoot more oxys and bring more of their kind into this world so I can pay for them? Fuck that noise.

lots of presumptions here. it's not like a party slogan to "do drugs and spend frivolously on designer brand clothes and cellphones while not contributing to society@!" :lol: even if it might seem like it is, to you.

How easy it is to get on wellfare and the number of lazy fucks I've seen on it disgust me. I can call up atleast 10 people I went to highschool with that abuse this system.

You want to use MY money that I worked for to feed your kids? Hair sample, right meow.

Socialism isn't the answer to fixing this countries problem.

Does anyone remember clinton and "everyone should be able to afford a home"??? Lol

Ok for one deciding to vote for the other guy is not the same as changing your political views. There are only 2 choices in many elections.

But more importantly people don't just drop everything they've ever believed once a decade. That's just fucking crazy

well, those people are leeches sure, but "being a leech" isn't a political platform, though. :tongue: that's kinda what i was trying to say.

PS: i don't remember who Clinton is, except for his Jazz music.

He said it "swings" every 16 years. Which isn't how it works. People aren't changing their opinion demographics are changing

People dying, moving, and coming of age..........

Not that you have anything to contribute

He can speak for himself

Edit - And "whole town" switching parties is pretty extreme, and exactly how he put it.
