Technically yes, we're all republicans, but we're not all Republicans. I'm not sure what the best way to describe a Republican is so I'll say a Republican is a member of the Republican Party.

thats no help.
wikipedia says a lot about the Republican party , mostly history, but really nothing about what they stand for. Not that I care. It just goes to show how far off base the political systems really are these days.

It is kind of ironic you guys are discussing politics in a thread about banning them.

Irony is a literary or rhetorical device, in which there is an incongruity or discordance between what one says or does, and what one means or what is generally understood.
why yes.
actually I'm ridiculing without trying to piss everyone off.

I would describe most people as self-interest-tariains, it's how people "think" they can best get there that makes us vote differently.
