It's become about party instead of country.
And a divided country isn't going to stand forever.
That's the question I asked in another thread, has Party come before country.
Asked a similar question earlier this week, has Party come before Humanity, when conservatives/libertarians got inserted into a thread about male rape.
Call me naive, but I still get surprised when I see it, even on here. But I would rather be naive than a hypocrite.
Party has come before country for over 2 decades unfortunately.
I find such statements ridiculously absurd, as if people in each party don't see their principles and methods as being in keeping with whats best for their view of the country??
collectivists believe more government is better for the country. individualists believe less is. the former is typically democrat, the latter typically republican. you want them to hold hands and sing kumbaya?
pro life people believe abortion is murder and that being pro life is ultimately best for the country. pro abortion people think a woman's right to kill her baby is better for the country. you want the pro life people to compromise their position for "the good of the country?" they see no "good of the country" in that. exactly what is the "good of the country" in this instance?
and such statements go on and on and on...
there is no "humanity" distinct from our social/political/religious worldviews concerning it.
to act otherwise is yes, either naïve, dissembling, or to hold an undeveloped, willy-nilly view.
I the People is not typically republican, it is absolutely nutsucker.
