Today's Republican Party is....

[CitizenCain]

Yes, one nominated by the Democratic Party. Every Catholic nominee *all three of them* were Democrats.

So?

That's nice and all (or entirely indifferent, if you're in the "who the fuck cares" camp I'm in), but it doesn't really say anything about Catholicism as a mainstream Christian denomination or not, which was all I was saying.

Catholics are mainstream Christians.
GeeGee claims she cares about religious diversity WRT the party she votes for.
The DNC has only ever nominated or entertained [to my knowledge] candidates that are mainstream Christians.
The GOP frontrunner this year is a Mormon, not a mainstream Christian.

Therefore, GeeGee ought to vote Republican this time around, if she actually believes any of the shit she's saying about the j00s G00Ps.

You're forgetting how long it took for Republicans to embrace Catholics as "true Christians". Of course, decades later the Fundies realized a convenient connection with the Pope declaring Pro-Life/anti-abortion for their constituents. Plus, the appeal to Fundamental WASPs who didn't like sex-ed taught in public schools, or handing out free condoms, preferring Abstinence Only.

Oh, so we're talking about ancient history too, now?

In that case, why do you support slavery and hate niggers?

Anyone who isn't a racist, slave-owning piece of shit should obviously vote for the party that ended slavery, instead of the party that fought so hard to keep slavery. Vote GOP, or be a nigger-hating racist.

History is fun.

Is that like a Lewk tactic, calling me a Democrat as if it's a slur akin to being a lib'rul? tsk tsk

Look, if you're ashamed to be called a Democrat (which I called you, on account of you being one), maybe the solution isn't to shoot the messenger who applies a factual accurate label to your political views, maybe the solution is to adopt political views of which you are not ashamed. [This also applies to the "socialist" as well, FWIW... if you don't like being called a socialist, you could always stop being a socialist, see if that works. ]

For example, in an effort to reduce this shame you seem to feel about your political views, instead of voting for the nigger-hating, slavery-endorsing Democratic party, you could vote for the party that's actually done anything beneficial for the African American community by ending racially-based slavery. And, as a double bonus, if the Republican you vote for is Mitt Romney, you'd be supporting religious diversity (like you say you want from a political party) in addition to opposing racism and slavery. See, now there's some political views you wouldn't have to be ashamed of.
