Patrick says: "to be analytical about it, "

We may have to ban you.
We'll not be ahaving any of that there analyticalizing.

Actually, I think what conservative ELITES mainly want to conserve is is the wealth and power of those who have it already (i.e., themselves). They accomplish this partly by pretending that they care about social conservatism.

i agree. the rich of course want to remain rich, and so they generally ally themselves with social conservatives in an attempt to prevent any change which might threaten their wealth.

yet, oddly, many liberals are also very rich. i haven't entirely worked out the dynamics of that to my own satisfaction. maybe they feel guilty about being rich.

That's heavy Pat that you can get all of that from a dude in a prom dress.

The democrats are every bit as bad as the republicans. Let's not kid ourselves

What do you mean by bad?

I don't think this is a Democrat or a Republican thing. I was always independent because I liked the balance of sensible Republicans and sensible Democrats to keep each other in check.
Starting from mid 90's they started going extreme opposite polar directions. But then when Bush came in office. There was more partisan politics going on, but the end result seemed to benefit each equally.
They did everything with secretive convoluted deals. They debate the issue flavor of the day. Then use it for an excuse to cram a bunch of secretive crap through, that nobody realizes the ramifications of until after it's passed. Then the original issue is even far worse off for the effort. They both have their elite institutions they answer to and keep well fed with Tax dollars.

That is why it is very easy for them to form an allegiance and vote for Hillary.

With Hillary the system we have today, this system, lives to fight another day.

Because liberals have a need to ruin everything for everyone.

Liberals feel guilty about everything...being white, being rich, and farting. The media has truly fucked their minds.

The look on Prom King's face....

Straw Man says

The look on Prom King's face....

He was figuring if they ever end up in prison together. They would be set with money.

Quigley says

Yes but we were considering why hot women tend to be conservative. Patrick answered that question with the best reason I've heard to date!

But that assumes it's true. Are you kidding ? Look, there might be a lot of liberal women that aren't super attractive. E.g. butch lesbians are more likely to be liberal. That doesn't mean that the hottest women are conservative.

I would contend this: Yes, there are a lot of hot women in the southeast, and there they might tent to be conservative (politically) slightly more often than not.

But there are plenty of hot women in places such as New York City, Boston, L.A, SF, and in countless other more liberal cities. Weren't any of you around in the 70s ? Also, there are plenty of women that are somewhat conservative now, that were liberal back when they were their hottest (18 - 30).

If you found the 100 hottest women you could, and then checked to see their politics, if you are in any major coastal city, including Maimi, I believe a majority will be liberal.
If on the other hand you ran this in Birmingham, Houston, or Little Rock the majority probably will be conservative.

why won't that prom king hold the "queens" hand instead of just looking at it!!!

15 Hot Republican Women Celebrities

http://gopcelebrities.com/hot-republican-women/hottest-republican-women-celebrities/

Sorry, Dan... Looks like Taylor Swift might not be your match after all.

The greatest truth here, is that republicans want to think and want to boast that they've got the hottest women. You know, sort of like the Donald wanted to boast that his wife was better than Cruz' wife. You can't make this stuff up. But that's republicans for you.

If you look it up on the internet, you'll find dozens maybe more articles, websites, whatever kinds of pieces claiming republicans have the hottest women.

I can't find a single article or website claiming that there are a lot of hot liberal women. I wonder why ? You can blame it on feminism, or there not being a lot of hot liberals. But some of us know better. It's the same reason why guys that do really well with women aren't usually bragging about it (unless it's a lie).

turtledove says

I'll take super smart and not hot over off the charts stupid and not hot any day of the week.

I can't believe you're serious. Yes, Marcus... We're really impressed that you found vapid ACTRESSES to demonstrate that Democrats can be pretty, too. Well done!

Tenpoundbass says

Ever wonder why hot girls are Republicans?

marcus says

I never realized your self esteem was so low TD.

I always realized that your left-field assertions rarely align with reality.

Maybe you're right, the liberal celebrities I selected aren't in the same class as the ones you posted.

Besides, as I said,

marcus says

I'll take super smart and not hot over off the charts stupid and not hot any day of the week.

Also, since you're acquainted with Natalie Portman's father, I'm surprised to hear you call her vapid. I hope her father doesn't read this, knowing who you are.

[joke]Hot women are republicans, because all hot women are crazy and bat-shit crazy is highly correlated with republican. This is common knowledge. But not all crazy women are hot - take Palin for instance. Just look at that picture for a minute. The double chin, flared nostrils, and glazed over look are not attractive. Add to that the terrible taste in adornments and what looks to be semen colored lip gloss, and you have a terrible mess.
When she opens her mouth and tries to talk it's like watching the special olympics - debate series. This is likely to scare the blood out of a normal person's penis. In fact, emergency rooms across the country started stocking Palin speech videos to treat erections lasting longer than 4 hrs.
[/joke]

The reason that people compile lists of hot Republicans is the same reason that they tag specimens of endangered species in the wild. They are so fucking rare, it's a really big deal. Seriously, there are probably more hot women posing nude for PETA than voting Republican.

marcus says

You mean like this ?

My post to which you now refer was in response to "hot girls." To which you asked why we have such lists? I then posted more serious examples of both parties as a more serious answer to your question and illustrating an objective difference among more serious players in each party... To which you then back-stepped and posted ACTRESSES. Conversations are iterative... They progress with each new statement added. You cannot ignore the middle statements in favor of a prior statement and pretend that the statements in the middle don't exist. That's called taking something out of context. Try to follow along.

turtledove says

objective difference among more serious players in each party.

turtledove says

Was this the objective comparison ?

turtledove says

Conversations are iterative...

No they aren't. I think you mean something like sequential. That's not true either, especially in a thread where it's not just about you.

I was responding primarily to the title of the thread (oops,...was it too late for that ?). Only secondarily to you. And actually the unidirectional nature of this medium is such that I can easily be out of step with where you're at. It's not really a conversation.

Why can't you just lose gracefully for once.

Most hot broads tend to be NPA

If youre discriminating based on political affiliation, you're leaving a lot on the table

True. A very high percentage of people label themselves independents (even if they aren't really).

Would you rather be temporarily and insincerely honored by a shallow, narcissistic, gold digging hottie who only values you for your money, power and prestige, or stomped into the dirt by a hideous Immense Hirsute Lesbian? Republican or Democrat, your choice.

marcus says

I never realized your self esteem was so low TD.

Marcus is proof of alternate dimensions I'm convinced he always posts from one.

LOL Turtle Dove has some San Francisco Gays defending homely Liberal women.

That's smokin' Hawt!

errc says

No Hot girls are NPA. But then they get past 21 and see every thing they valued as a child and dreamed that one day they would have as an adult.
Is under serious fire and threat from the Liberal establishment. They start getting conservative.

marcus says

No they aren't. I think you mean something like sequential.

They might be sequential, assuming that they are read in a certain order... But they are, in fact, iterative. Your misunderstanding of the usage, doesn't make you right. This might help you understand:

He prefers a conversation, and conversations aren't etched in stone, they're iterative.

Well, when I actually lose, we'll find out, won't we? You -- suddenly and baselessly claiming that you won the argument is truly laughable... But if we are just making shit up... Allow me... Why can't you stop being such a racist, homophobic, nosepicker?

The problem with liberal women is there's no way of tellin if they are...
