Wow I must sound professional. In math calss a few days ago we were talking about govt. and we were talking about democrats and republicans. So what's a democrat? And what's a republican? Which side is liberal on and what is the other thing called, which one supports gay marriage, pro-choice, and the other anti-choice? I remembered just a few days ago! Anyone feel like helping me out then?

Okay...I'm understanding somewhat, well I thought I was then realized there is more terms for democrat, so do republicans have more terms also? And do you really have to group in one place, say you believe somethings from each side, then what are you? Or if there's expectations. I'll probably understand this more when I need too, but I'm just curious right now.

Here is the political spectrum from left (liberal) to right (conservative)
Communist, Socialist, and anarchist
Liberal Democrat
Democrat
Liberal Republican (generally pro abortion)
Conservative Republican (economically, not socially)
True Conservative Republican (economic and social)
The following are generally true
Liberals are pro abortion
Social conservatives are against abortion
Liberals are for big government programs that take money from those who earn it and redistribute it.
Conservative know if you earned it, it belongs to you.
Liberals want the UN and others outside this country to rule over us.
Conservatives want to destroy any enemy.
Read my questions and answers to get a good grip of a true conservative.
Look at Steve J and g to get a good idea what a liberal is.
70-80% of Americans are against gay marriage. Every time a ballot initiative is up, it is defeated by at least 70-30%. This has happened in 14 states. AZ had both marriage and civil unions up for ban and it lost 51-49%

Well, judging by your question, I'm going to guess that you are a Democrat because you don't know what you're talking about. Just to feed your curiosity here's the answer.
Democrats: Stupid, uneducated and asks tons of questions.
Republicans: Smart, educated and have all the answers.
These are the facts. You cannot argue them.
