I agree and the Dem's need to beware.

Gonorrhea

The Center for Disease Control has issued a warning about a new
virulent strain of this old disease.

The disease is called Gonorrhea Lectim. It's pronounced "Gonna
re-elect 'im."

The disease is contracted through dangerous and high-risk behavior
involving putting your cranium up your rectum.

Why would anyone "be proud" to claim to be aligned with a political party? It's not like one takes a test to get accepted.

Never understood the concept.

Trust me, any political party will accept your money and your vote. Even if your dead.

I certainly am proud to be a Republican. Does that make me something special in your eyes?

The republican party is lost in the weeds at the moment. The "real" republicans are now the conservatives and tea party group. I am proud to be a conservative and always will be. As long as you stick with the very core of conservative beliefs, conservatism will always be the fairest and most efficient way of governance.

Don't know since I'm not a Republican. I'm registered as Independent. I'm proud to NOT be a Democrat.

Why the f*** would anybody be a proud republican or democrat? There isn't a single difference between the two.

There are some differences. As I posted earlier, Republicans don't believe in forcing government-run health insurance on citizens.

That's why I posted this. Every conservative I know, no longer considers themselves a Republican. They are only conservative now and proud of it. Kind of like how there are a lot of Democrats that consider themselves to be progressives now. I think Americans can identify more with movements (Conservative/Tea Party & Liberal/Progressive) than they identify with Republicans and Democrats. And for good reason. It's easier to relate to ordinary people that share your beliefs than it is to relate to a politician.
