@northernnarwhal At least my mom has her head on straight
-
@redenchilada Hey, 1/2 is not bad!
-
@northernnarwhal I think the only iffy thing about my mom is she still thinks she's a Republican
-
@redenchilada Wasn't Lincoln a republican?
-
@scribus Yes, but the Republican Party back then wasn't the same party as today and it was actually the precursor to the Democratic Party. If I remember my history right.
-
@redenchilada Well she RepubliCAN if she wants to!!
-
@mrmattimation Yeah, there was a pretty sudden 180 between the parties long before you or I were things that existed.
-
@northernnarwhal Can someone who fully supports LGB (and possibly T, though I've never asked) rights AND legalized recreational merry joannas really be a Republican, though? I'd think you could be a slightly-leaning moderate at most with that.
-
@redenchilada That's certainly not the image that comes into my mind when I think "Republican"
-
@redenchilada If they're of the "small government, stay out of everyone's batcave" Republican. Which isn't really in line with the party itself....
-
@redenchilada Depends on what her other beliefs are. Abortion, economics, etc. I consider myself a democrat purely by social politics, economically I'm way more moderate.
