What is with the Republican people that soooooooo love war, and fighting and "victory!" and competition, and all that evil crap?

"Shake things up!!!!" (No peace in the future)
"A pit bull!" (Pitbulls are known for killing their prey)
"We will fight!" (Not get along)
"It's a race!!!" (Must be on top)
"We are the greatest!" (no humility there...)
"Calling people out" (thems fighting words)

Shouldn't a people be at peace? To learn to get along? Not for promoting fighting?

What a selfish, fighting, war-loving group of people.

Ok that's my two cents.

Anyone wanna get along here? I'll happily share my wealth. I won't call it "doling it out", I'll call it "sharing".

That's not a Republican thing. It's a politician thing. An American thing.

I'm an American. And I don't like it. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

War is a capitalistic thing. Big money in it. It gets nations out of depressions and puts them into recessions.

Just listen to a Republican speech. That's the whole language they use.

"Victory"! "Win!" "Fight!" oh brother. Grow up Republicans. It's not a pep rally, it's not a football game, it's not a war, it's not a fight. It's a situation.

We don't want to fight. We want to solve.

John McCain (today): "We need a new direction and we have to fight for it".

NO YOU have to "fight". not me.

Gee, I thought no one would understand my point.

It's the language. The chanting. The hypnotic "fight, win!, victory! USA! USA! USA!" crap. Like they are hypnotized zombies trained for war.

Onward christian soldiers, i suppose.

Hopefully Barack will get into office and put an end to this mindset for at least a few years. I hope he ends that stupid war in Iraq. I think he's wise, and wants to unite people. I hope he succeeds.

When people are fighting, they are not building. We need to build, not be divided by anyone, anymore. "Divide and Conquer" is true. It works. If people are busy fighting and arguing, they are not solving.

We can do it kids.

Yeah, I haven't heard anyone chant hypnotically lately. Care to provide an actual quote or link to a speech or something where anyone chanted hypnotically?

War is often necessary and therefore not necessarily evil.

Fighting is also sometimes necessary and not necessarily evil.

Competition is a good thing and victory is a wonderful thing whether in war (That is how wars end ) or a ball game.

People in general love competition and war mongering or fighting is not exclusive to the republicans. In fact most wars of the last hundred years began under democrat party presidents. ANd virtually every president since Wilson has sent troops to fight to one degree or another.

It predates capitalism by millenia and socialists or communists wage war as well and as often.
