So if Democrats - citizens who are registered a members of the National Democratic Party - feel that the GOP does not deserve the title of "republican" but rather "Repugnicans" it's okay if they call you by that name?
Is that the intelligent or respectful attitude of one group of US citizens and another group of US citizens?
In other words your most articulate argument in the realm of political debate is childish name calling?
Name calling?
Question: are members of the Democrat Party Democrats or not?
How is saying what someone is "calling them names"?
I'm conservative on some issues and sometimes a Repub on a news show will make a sensible argument. But then comes the part when they refer to the Democratic Party as the "Democrat party", reminding me why I don't like them very much. It smacks of petulant school yard name calling to me. Why do they talk that way?
Probably because the term "party" is being used as an identifyer of a collective, eg:
Democrat party
Republican party
Communist party
Green party.
Painting the word party as a derogatory term makes no sense what so ever.
I'm not especially bothered because you personally mean exactly nothing to me, but I do know you're saying it to be snide.
Democratic = adjective to describe "party". Democrat = noun. Republican = adjective to describe "party." Republic = noun.
Simple grammar, and you're welcome for the lesson.
If you call it the Democrat party, we should also call yours the Republic party. Simple logic.
But I know you get your talking points from elsewhere, and the RNC decide years ago to be snide about it, so I"m sure proper grammar (AND 171 years of history as the DEMOCRATIC party), matters not to you. Enjoy your little tantrum. It's all you've got.
You know how it is. They seen it, but they can't spel it cuz it never sanked in.
Like the guy said: 'Get a brain, Morans".
Why do democrats call members of the tea party 'teabaggers'?
Because that's the way the word is spelled?
...and, somehow, it's more manly than 'tea partiers'.
