Republicans vs Democrats my statements, do you agree?

Question

Republicans have more logical stable answers.
Democrats have theories that are risky and wishful.
For Example
Amnesty
Republicans Lets keep our nation together and get illegal aliens out and not give free citizenship like private property.
Democrats Lets allow all illegal imagrants free citizenship and raise everyone's taxes and hope for market success and get more votes.(I cant think else why they would allow amnesty)

War on Iraq
Republicans - Lets stay and finish what we started, it is a war on terrorism and it's not only for America but for the rest of the World. Leaving the Middle East is not an option, America is not a stuck up nor selfish country and the war also creates many jobs and gives families oppurtunities.
Democrats- Lets leave the Middle East, have minimal troops to patch Iraq, and hope Iraq makes a government and supports itself. 3500 Americans died all for nothing, so we are bringing them out. We should never have gone.
Do you agree with the statements?

Room was tight when i was righting this, so forgive me, some statements were made more blunt than intended.

writing* lol

of coarse they dont want to raise taxes but they need to

Hey Roy the Iraq damage was done by Terrorism, and how the hell is staying their and building their constituion wishful thinking? no way in hell your getting best answer

Terrorism can be a government doesnt need to be with a bomb or weapons, by what you posted it seams that you think terrorism is in a form of a weapon. No, terrorism is making people fear.

Answer 1

Good perspective.

I wish you would of added something about the tax-cuts every single Democratic Presidential hopeful is promising to repeal.

Answer 2

On Amnesty:
While I agree many Republican's do not want amnesty, apparently more than a couple do, to include President Bush and one of the Presidential candidates (McCain). It should also be pointed out that there were a number of Democrats that also hated this immigration bill and helped in bringing it to defeat. As to the others, they argue it is humanitarian reasons, but make this argument without considering the costs to our nation (as you said generally).

On the War in Iraq:
I think the lines on Iraq are pretty much all over the place. I'll grant you Bush has remained consistent and has a position as to what you say in regards to Iraq but I would not call this the universal Republican position (especially as late).
The Democrats also are not necessarily all making the case that we need to leave the middle east alone. Many are arguing however that we have little interest in continuance in Iraq. They view the cost (both in dollars, and in American lives) to be too heavy to justify staying there. Yes most would agree we should have never have gone in, but it should also be said that they would also argue that Iraq was never really tied to the war on terror in the first place. They would also argue that to leave Iraq would not put the US at risk, and to stay will not change anything...in the end we will have to leave one day...and it will be the same result today as it would be if we leave a few years from now.

As to which is more logical and stable or which is risky and wishful I think differs on the issues here. To be against amnesty I think is the better position (although as I said I would not necessarily call this the Republican position) as to logic and stability. As to the war however I think the Democrats, if they handle it in a particular manner that does not exclude force in the future in regards to the middle east, have a more logical and sensible position (although this also is not exclusively Democrat, nor are all Democrats that want to leave Iraq following this rationale).

Answer 3

Looks like you missed some important facts.

1. The amnesty bill died, it was killed by grass roots efforts, however it is being brought back to life by one person and the credit goes to ..................... Republican Leader, George W Bush. The Democrats gave up on this, they yanked it off the Senate floor.

2. War on Iraq, you are making the great mistake of leisurely mixing the Iraq Occupation with the War on Terror. Now here are the rest of the mistakes in order:

"Lets stay and finish what we started." this looks like risky and wishful theory to me. Why don't you assess the war and let us know how long, how many soldiers, how much money, how to measure progress, etc - that would be strategy. Military is not run on wishful thinking or slogans but strategy.

"Its a War on Terrorism", is it where is Bin Ladin, Why are terrorist networks increasing in Pakistan, why are terrorist strong holds returning to Afghanistan, why are Hamas, Syria and Iran become bolder, and the most important part what are the Republicans doing about all this, keeping us bogged down in Iraq?

"Leaving the Middle East is not an option", and who claimed otherwise the Dems have been saying to redeploy to safer, less hostile parts of the Middle East, regroup and reassess our strategy.

Here is a line from Rocky 3, "You can teach him everything but you can't give him your heart." We can give Iraqis everything we have, they will still be fighting a civil war. You can't force people to live in peace or adapt democracy.

Democrats Vs Republicans, only one statement:

If you have your head filled with Carl Roves slogans, then you have no room for logic or facts.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is wishful thinking if they don't want your constitution, and I didn't expect to get best answer, reason, read the sentence before this one.

"Terrorism is making people fear", the Bush Administration, guilty as charged.

Answer 5

Not really.

For Iraq, the problem is that nobody knows what it means when they say 'finish the job.'

Neither Democrats or Republicans really tried to figure out how to solve Iraq thing. All the debates have been let's pull out or let's stay longer.

Even if job is 'finished' here's what we end up with.

Coalition force installed Shiite gov in Iraq. Iran is also Shiite nation. Hamas, Hezbollahs, our enemies in the region are Shiite Muslims.

So is it possible for Iraq to make decisions in future that favor our enemies Hamas, Iran and other fellow Shiite Muslims? Probably.

The problem doesn't end when Iraq become 'peaceful' which is not likely anyways. It will probably be lot like Israel, Palestine situation.

There is no guarantee our investment in Iraq will pay off as the president claims. President assumes everything will go his way 100%. If that happens Iraq will be huge success. But I think we all know that is not the case.

Remember Rumsfeld saying 'freedom is untidy!'?? Rumsfeld saying 'free people make mistakes, committ crimes!' when he is asked about chaos in Iraq? Remember that?

So what makes you think 'free' Iraq, smack in the middle, among our enemies will be our friend forever?


So here's the problem with Iraq. They went into a burning building with 21oz water bottle trying to put out fire that is engulfing 10story building. (Analogy to poor planning in Iraq.) And they say just one more water bottle, just give me one more. If you just give me one more bottle I'll put it out.

This is why many critics argue the Iraq was not priority, but other areas in Middle East like Israel, Palestine. We should have dealt with other conflicts in Middle East and set the stage for democratic Iraq.

You don't plant single seed in middle of desert hoping that single seed will transform entire desert into a beautiful forest.

Democracy in Middle East good thing? Hamas got elected democratically. Who says democratic people love USA?
Far as I'm concerned people in Middle East might elect people who call for suicide bombing on our troops. And it probably has happened.


Keep your eye on GOP and see if they call for withdrawal when 2008 election comes around. GOP knows it will be huge disadvantage to go into 2008 election with 130,000 troops in Iraq. If you see Republicans calling for withdrawal by 2008 election you know it is just typical politics. You'll see if GOP really is about reason, common sense or just typical DC politics.

Answer 6

Nope. Some democrats.

Me: Democrats + Republicans vs. Socialists and the seditious.
Legal immigrants = brothers
Illegal immigrants = criminals
War in Iraq = beginning of revolution in Islam to embrace freedom (bigger issue than Iraq)

I respect my President. I'm still stunned at the excuses people use to disrespect their elected leader and use seditious means to undermine our country rather than use legitimate (and even patriotic) disagreement/dissent/protest.

They make themselves judge and jury and treat our elected officials as "guilty until proven innocent", then say we are censoring them when we use our free speech to answer them.

These people do not represent me.

I am a democrat, second. I am a patriot, first.

Keep speaking up, Jared 1.

Answer 7

wow


now that is daring to see someone actually making a statement supporting the republicans

true statement mind you and I enjoyed reading this...

But we need the democrats to keep us honest so to speka - it gives a person something to aim for - or should i say something to aim not to do....

and if the republicans get carried away with their own power people have the option to vote in the democrats to bring the republicans to their senses....

Answer 8

Couldn't have said it better myself. You forgot to mention , however, that these same democrats who want us out of Iraq are now calling for an invasion of Iran. Kind of hypocritical isn't it?

Answer 9

democrats to not say that we should allow all illegal immigrants for free. the process should be simpler. and we don't want to raise everyone's taxes, but look at the republicans. tax breaks for the rich, higher taxes for the poor. i don't agree with your statements, and i don't believe you have all the facts and are showing a fair representation of both sides.

Answer 10

YOu have it summed up and all aliens can get back on the ship! You are a great American!
