-Craig DawkinsI was asked why I would join up with Democrats vs. the GOP the other day. Here are ten reasons that I quickly came up with in my response.
As in all things, the state party is not that national party. Here's how they are better.
1. They are moving in the direction of ending the drug war. The OKGOP won't do that.
2. They are for immigration reform that has a pathway to citizenship. The OKGOP won't do that.
3. They are for marriage equality. The OKGOP won't do that.
4. They aren't running a propaganda campaign against peaceful Muslims. The OKGOP is doing that.
5. They are looking at sentencing reform. The OKGOP won't do that.
6. They are pushing against the police state. The OKGOP won't do that.
7. They are raising questions about privacy and are against the Patriot Act. The OKGOP won't do that.
8. They are allowing Washington state and Colorado to nullify federal pot laws. The OKGOP won't do that.
9. They now support ballot access reform. The OKGOP won't do that.
10. They are pushing against asset forfeiture. The OKGOP won't do that.

Yep, because dogs can legally consent to marriage via written contract.
Even funnier is that same-sex marriage was practiced tens of thousands of years ago. It wasn't until the era of the Roman Empire when Catholics hijacked the concept and injected religion into the mix. So when people claim that we're redefining marriage, we're actually restoring it.
Sounds like he was already a liberal democrat, just making it official.
I vote for whoever actually does the better job. And #10 is a straw man argument that ticks me off.
some of those reasons, and others, are why i removed party affiliation on my voter registration.
