Kind of like people who apologetically say they are Republicans or conservatives, as if they have bought into the stereotypes and are embarassed.

No one holds the patent on thinking and caring.

I think, and I care, therefore I think bipartisanism and party loyalty are dumb and am a registered Independent. CHALLENGE!

Uh oh...I think and care and am a Republican. How could it be that all Democrats, Republicans and Independents all think and care?

Looks like the Battle Royale of Thinking and Caring to me...three people enter, one person "thinks and cares."

This conundrum wasn't in the voter handbook. What to do.

Um...I can live without the caring part.

The rest of you can hash it out for yourselves.

I want to start a political party. Every time Obama cringes when Beiden talks, take a shot.

It will be a really fun party.

You're such a badass.

I'll sign up for this party only if I don't have to be loyal to it. Deal?

I'm sure the stereotype-hog factions would put it on a Log Cabin shirt or something equally rad-tarded.

If I had to pick, I would probably be a very conservative democrat.

Well, you all know I'm a pretty politically oriented person so of course, since I'm dating someone new, I had to ask him his views. He identifies with the Republican party and I clearly identify with the Democrats. We ended up discussing numerous issues, one by one, social, fiscal, defense, etc. And, we agreed on every single issue. Every one. The difference? He's voting based on fiscal issues and I'm voting based on social issues. The reality is, we're probably both truly Libertarians but choose one of the two main political parties for voting purposes. I thought it was interesting that on each individual issue we were on the same page, but the importance of those issues and how we choose to vote was different.

Im a Libertarian. Fiscal Conservative, Socially Liberal, States Rights, Small Federal Government, the Federal Governments only job is to enforce law, protect its people from domestic and foreign criminals, and courts. The rest is up to the states. 10th Amendment. I believe if what you do doesnt effect anyone else's life, liberty, or property, then they should be able to do it.

Also fiscally conservative and socially liberal. I'm aware most of my views categorize me as a Libertarian but I have always said I don't believe in political parties and I still like to stand by that.

Did you take a shot with Biden's F-bomb?
