Ok, to set this up, first let me explain a bit. I was in a different forum, when a topic called, "Bush is such a douche bag" popped up. In it, it quoted an article in which Bush vetoed a bill for increased funding to children's hospitals. The title seems to make sense right? But, in the article, Bush was quoted for saying that the bill needs to be more geared towards the poorer children, who need it, instead of the middle class children who don't really need it. It's obvious to anyone that can read and comprehend that Bush made the right decision.

In that same forum, another thread came up that was called, "Bush takes it too far." This was about a announcement made over Iran possessing nuclear weapons. Bush says that it might lead to WWIII and Iran should be forced to stop their Nuclear Weapons program, and Russia should be helping, instead of hindering. Another time where it is obvious that Iran having nukes is bad news, so Bush is trying to stop it.

While reading responses, it is obvious to tell the Republicans and the Democrats apart. One reason is, the democrats are all, "Screw Bush, he's always wrong" while the republicans are thinking about the reasons behind the action.

To me, it seems that democrats always think of these new ideas, while republicans are the ones to think things out.

Of course, come to think of it, it could be that those sheep who follow everyone else switched from Republican to Democrat, and they aren't able to think things out, so they just follow everyone else in believing that Bush is wrong, while the true Republicans who think things out are the only ones that stayed.

It always seems to be the sheep that are the most radical. People who actually think these things out, would never say, "Bush is trying to hurt America." I've even had someone say Bush is worse than Hitler.

Now, my question to you is this...

Do Democrats just seem dumber because they have all the empty space (sheep) screaming nonsensical things without thinking them through, or is there an actual difference?

Partisan ideology is pointless. Democrat or Republican, you're essentially repeating slogans and mantras that other people have instilled into you. If you consider your political outlook to be superior to those around you, then you're just a puppet in someone else's game. Don't bother yourself with trying to change anything through the system society has in place, since that system only panders to said society, and will only result in the advancement of the people with the money and power to rise to office, and to push their own personal agendas.
