One who works for what they have. A member of society who understands that nothing is free, and that if you work for something, and earn it, it should be yours; while democrats believe that we should give everything we have to those who are too worthless to do anything for themselves. Republicans believe that there are good countries out there (UK), confused countries (Fr.), and there are coutries ruled by megalomaniac dictators, whose regions of the world are criminally infested hell-holes, in the middle of the desert. Republicans understand that 1% of the world population has food, because they went to college, and got jobs, and worked to earn money, instead of shitting bunches of children in some third world country, and is too ass backwards to figure out that he needs to work. A republican is someone who is morally sound, and believes in life; adversly, democrats believe that they can do whatever they want, and that no one can make them do anything but their own selfish agenda.
Wow, Reagan was a good president... and so was Eisenhower. Hmm...Economic prosperity, the good ol' days. Too bad the current recession OFFICIALLY started in the last year of Clinton's presidency, after the failing of dot.com stocks, instead of the propagandated bullshit about it being Bushes fault (although we all remember it was bad well before the attempted stealing of the election by Gore / Jewerman)

Get the republicanmug. One of the two major political powers in the United States today. Although they are all people with beliefs, families, and values, they are often critisized due to the vocal few of their party. In truth, there are just as many bad democrats as there are republicans.

Get the republicanmug. A right-leaning person when it comes to morals, values, and politics. Usually tend to be more conservative in their thinking and beliefs, which is a good thing. This is the title I fall under: Republican.

2. Not all Republicans are Christian
3. Not all Republicans hate paying taxes
Here's my small view of Republican vs. Democratic ideas:

Julie is coming back from college on her first break and his having a conversation with her dad, a strong Republican:
Julie - Hey dad, ever since college I've been really growing Liberal ideas, and I truly support the Democratic platform now. Really, it's only fair that the rich pay more, and I think they should simply because they can.
Dad - Hm. Interesting Julie. Hey, by the way, how's your friend Amy doing?
Julie - Amy, well... she's doing alright I guess.
Dad - And how are you doing?
Julie - I'm doing excellent Dad!
Dad - How so?
Julie (proudly)- I have a 3.8 GPA and I'm acing my biology courses!
Dad - Julie, I'm extremely proud of you, and you know that. But, what about Amy?
Julie - Well, umm, Amy has a 1.9. Well I guess I don't feel all that bad for her, I mean she's happy. She parties all the time, she has a boyfriend, and she really doesn't care about college all that much. Grades don't seem to be on the top of her priority list.
Dad - Hm, that's sad. How about this! Why don't you go down to the dean's office and have a discussion, and see if you can transfer some of your GPA points over to Amy so you both get a 3.0! I mean, that's still great for your first year in college. You'll both be happy!
Julie - What?! No way! I worked my butt off for those grades. Last week I was up until 2 am every night studying for my finals. I nearly aced all of them. Julie went to three parties and came back to the room drunk every night.
Dad - So?
Julie - That would be unfair - I could'nt do that! They're my grades and I'm extremely proud of them. Julie deserved to fail her finals. That would simply be unfair. I deserve my grades.
Dad (pats her on the back) - Welcome to the Republican Party dear!

Get the republicanmug. A republican is the member of the Republican Party, the historic rival of the Democrat Party. The Republican and Democrat party are the two main parties in the United States. The Republican party was founded in 1854 by the name GOP (Grand Old Party) by opponents of the Kansas-Nebraska Act.
The platform of the Republican Party of the United States is generally based on American conservatism, in contrast to the modern liberalism of the Democrats. The party consists of moderates, sometimes described as establishment Republicans, and members of the Tea Party or Freedom Caucus, who have been described as populist, right-wing, and far-right. The party also incorporates several other factions, such as Libertarian Republicans, who advocate libertarian policies.
The positions of the Republican Party have evolved over time. Contemporarily, the party's economic conservatism involves support for lower taxes, free market capitalism, deregulation of corporations, and restrictions on labor unions. The party is also socially conservative, and support gun rights, and other traditional values, often with a Christian foundation, including restrictions on abortion. In foreign policy, Republicans usually favor increased military spending, unilateral action, and anti-Communist revolutions, especially during the 1980s and 1990s. Other Republican beliefs include restrictions on immigration, opposition to drug legalization, and support for school choice.
