VOTE: Which word best describes the Republican Party?

[SeveneightyWhoa]

Poll question: VOTE: Which word best describes the Republican Party?

You might remember my "Describe The Republican Party in ONE word" thread, from, well, a few hours ago.

Now I've narrowed down the choices to the top 10 (in my superior opinion, of course). You choose which one is best suited to describe the Republican Party. VOTE!

[Faygo Kid]

1. Gee, they all do, don't they?

Don't blame you for not listing "all" as an option. There would have been no votes for any of the single categories.

[Wapsie B]

2. Fear.

To me no other word descibes the gop as well as fear. Fear that some evil empire will destroy us, fear that the lower classes will take away the wealth of the upper class....etc.........

[dweller]

3. Deluded

my vote.

4. sociopathy

or just plain "pathology"

the cure being motivating the hundred MILLION non-voters to realize how CRUCIAL this election is to the survival of democracy, assuming the barn door has already been closed too late.

6. So far we've got...

So far we’ve got the evil, greedy, corrupt, elitist plutocracy, filled with unscrupulous hypocrisy -- our dear old Republican brethren. Seems to fit just fine!

[Union Thug]

7. Two Words Describe them

1. Rich
2. Stupid

As my father used to say, if you're a republican, you're either rich or you're stupid. that about does it.

8. You know what would be interesting - which word describes the Dem. party?

[Military Brat]

Describe the Dem party: Idealistic

:dem:

[Military Brat]

9. The Repub party: Irresponsible

They're irresponsible with money, and they never take responsibility for what they say or do.

I know it isn't on the list, but you can say it in public without running the risk of people foaming at the mouth.

[ConsAreLiars]

10. I missed the thread; you missed the most obvious label

Cons.

They are cons.

Con artists, ex-cons, yet to be convicted cons.

Public cons, republic cons.

It's what they do; it's what they are.

11. Where is the "All of the above" checkbox?

:evilfrown:

[K-W]

12. Evil? Doesnt that sort of make us as bad as them?

I think we should leave villifying to the right.

[SeveneightyWhoa]

13. I agree.

I think "evil" is the most simpleminded, straightforward choice. Come on people, there are better ones up here! Let's see another one overtake "evil". For the sake of democracy!

[exgop]

14. Stupid or irresponsible

One or the other. Maybe a tie.
