All that matters, without exception, is Democrats good, Republicans bad.Maybe I am having a severe case of deja vue?
But didnt we go through this crystal clear and easy to understand explanation previously?...Like maybe a dozen times on this board?
Regardless...I appreciate your patience with us professor... lol
Guys, Trog isn't a real member. He's a made-up persona by another poster here just to poke fun at us. I mean, who names themselves a Troglodyte, really? Someone has been having a lot of fun with us for a few years.Ok, Mr. Worldly Scholar.......please tell us about China, as their constitution classifies itself as "socialist democracy and a people's democratic dictatorship."
Please enlighten us with ALL the democracy afforded to the citizens of China from their government.
probably Ark. ****** can argue with a tree.Guys, Trog isn't a real member. He's a made-up persona by another poster here just to poke fun at us. I mean, who names themselves a Troglodyte, really? Someone has been having a lot of fun with us for a few years.

I think it's you...You're one of the few who would go through all of this trouble for this length of time just to **** with people, you sick bastage.probably Ark. ****** can argue with a tree.
I'm going to stick up for Tibs here.We a should have an online protest here at Steelernation. We'll demand that Floggy and Tibs not have access to the P&R forums. We'll call it No Retards Day.
Tibs aint giving you free coffee.I'm going to stick up for Tibs here.
While I don't see eye to eye with him on a lot of things, I believe he is not trolling, not a sheep, and not an easily lead automaton.
I believe these are his personal views based on his worldly observations.
I appreciate people like Tibs, even though I disagree with his views and think they're asinine and insane.
I refer you to the first ten words. Pay special attention to the tenth word! You ******* moron.

What do we call the system of government in the U.S.? Are we a democracy or a republic?
The conundrum is, well, as the common expression goes, "as old as the republic itself."
But it's not just a question for scholars and semanticists any more.
Since the election of 2020, supporters of former President Donald Trump have become notably more willing to assert their belief that voting in America is suspect. That Trump won an election he lost. That "millions of ballots" were uncounted or miscounted. That voting by mail was fraught with abuse.
Despite the lack of evidence, and the judgments of election officials from both parties and judges appointed by presidents from both parties, election denialism has become not only a thing, but a movement. And when critics call this an attack on democracy, some election deniers respond by saying the U.S. is not a democracy, it is a republic.
Robert Draper of The New York Times published a piece on Republicans who say this in August. He cited a GOP candidate for the Arizona state legislature, Selina Bliss, saying: "We are not a democracy. Nowhere in the Constitution does it use the word 'democracy.' I think of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. That's not us."
But a democratic republic is us. Exactly.
We may see Trog pull a Mitch McConnell/Joe Biden and see a blank stare while the internal computer shuts down and reboots from overload.
argue with your leftist news source, you pfucking moron.
in that, pfucking is the adjective and moron is the noun. no, dipshit, not the pronoun. noun.
Idiot, it also omitted the arson and attempted murder of Josh Shapiro and his family. RIGHT WING VIOLENCE.
Always the victim, creating your own reality with selective outrage.
well, this being a democracy, you'll get what others decide is best for you.Northern VA and the large cities of have such a strong presence on state wide elections, I wouldn't be surprised if he still wins.
I am hoping that at least Myares can retain his position as AG. He'll at least be able to continue trying all cases regardless of if the Dems want to not follow the law.
I could be wrong but I don't think Sears will be strong enough to carry the vote against Spanberger but I sure hope that she can pull off the upset.
I'm sure it's happened but I don't recall a situation where we have had a governor and AG from different parties.
WTF? Read the first four words in the title and the eighth. And I notice it mentions that election deniers call it a republic. Then step on another rake.
