Are you democrat, republican, independent, or other, and why?

I surrendered my right to vote and all interest in politics after Tony Bliar (who I once voted for) sent our country to war on a lie. My future aim is to give up thinking altogether. Picture it, man... it's my Mount Zion, my Shangri-La, my Veedon Fleece, my Tao.

Interesting article but if we removed government and replaced it with anarchism, I'm pretty sure that, given enough time, we'd end up exactly where we are. Things like law and order or lack of are cyclical, or two sides of the same coin.

Well I don't want total anarchy, and I hate it when people think they do.

The average man, on being told that the anarchist would abolish all governmental restraints, not unnaturally concludes that the proposition involves the removal of the restrictions upon criminal conduct, the relinquishment of organized defence of life, liberty and property.

I believe in politics there is a certain amount of bias, especially in the media so wherever you get your news from, there will be some bias. To bring up a fact politically or a event without bias, you would have to be there and witness it first hand. That being said, I am a Republican and fully supported for almost all of his presidency. I was not registered in 2008 to vote but showed support for McCain then in 2012 voted for the first time for Romney in a heavily intense election season. While I don't dictate others in what to do politically,I don't think being independent this day in age is the best choice. With the last six years of Obama's presidency and the "my way or the highway" attitude of the Senate (thanks but no thanks Henry Reid) I think it is a clear choice where to go politically in the states. Either Republican or Libertarian.

I firmly believe in a free market and the hard work and determination attitude that comes with the Republican party, because a free market ensures trade and business can flow smoothly and precisely. And I don't want to be part of a party where you become dependent on the government, if I wanted that I'd go to China. Because of Obamacare and the fraud that is the affordable care act, my moms medications she needs to function have skyrocketed in costs.

Lol you'd probably think I was Sean Hannity from my last post, wouldn't you? No, I also watch CBS. I also go to Real Clear Politics for the polls. I don't mean to go off topic here but why is it Dems fry Fox News all the time (Jay Carney's countless references to the network)?

While I am a Republican, I consider myself more of a moderate or a "Chris Christie" Republican. I am pro choice and support legalization of marijuana for medical purposes mainly but also recreationally (if done responsibly).
