I'm a Brit, but... yeah, this. I don't know much about the Republicans this election other than most of them are cretins who live in the 1800s and Ron Paul is the most sane of the lot of them. I don't even care about his policies. He's the only one who's not a total buffoon, so I'd vote for him if I was Republican. That said, I'm thinking Obama should have another term.

Well... Ron Paul has actually done absolutely nothing with his time in congress besides whine and complain. Sure he stands for freedom and has some good ideas not foreign policy related... but at some point you have to do something. You have to be able to work people who don't agree with you (which in his case is just about everyone else in congress besides his son) and have them vote for what you're proposing.
As president, he would be as much of a "do-nothing" as our current president.

He's the only one in the running from either party that I have ANY respect for.

Yeah, the rule of thumb would suggest that unemployment is too high for an incumbent win, but I'm not sure we won't see a reversal of that at this rate. Romney seems to be the best chance for a win, but there's the whole religion thing. The only time a non-protestant was elected, he was assassinated, and this guy's mormon. He's about 2 steps away from being a scientologist, and I don't see the voting public being comfortable with that.

On the one hand, funny pic.
On the other, imagine the rage that would ensue if you posted this EXACT thread but in 2008 and about Obama.
Dunno what it is about political humor, because I'm not a Republican (opposed both McCain and Obama in 08), but pics, blogs, tv shows, whatnot mocking Republicans just irritate me, because they're so widespread. it seems like a double standard.

The problem isn't that he's Republican. I can't even vote. I live on the opposite side of the Atlantic. The problem is that he's Rick "I can't handle uncomfortable truths about the 21st century" Perry. The guy's an intolerant arse and a moron on top of it. Same goes when and if I mock Palin or Bachmann. It's not because they're Republic and it's not because they're a woman, it's because they're total gimboids!

Not only do I believe you, I wholeheartedly agree. ...assuming, of course, that gimboid means what I think it means.
I still think there's a huge double-standard, though. As I said, if you posted the EXACT same thing but about Obama, people would accuse you of being some radical right-winger.

You obviously never saw some of the far worse images that certain groups spread featuring Obama then, huh? Something like this

Oh, I know they exist, but they're more or less kept to far-right wingers. Note who posted it.

So, eating a hotdog means you'll never be important?
Good to know.
