But seriously folks...

...this is just a thought...

...one of those random musings that occassionaly escape the snakepit of my mind...

Both of the USA's two main political parties base their philosophies on what they percieve to be 'absolute goods.' Things that they believe to be so right that they become the foundation of their beliefs.

With Republicans, the concept of 'absolute goods' tend to be ideological. I call them the '3 Fs': Freedom, Family and Faith. To the average Republican these things are the basis of what's right with this world and must be fostered and protected.

With Democrats it's different. Although they claim to be the party of wide-eyed ideology their concept of 'absolute goods' are based more on who's paying the piper. Hence the Democratic Party's 'absolute goods' are more 'nuanced.'

For them to be considered good they need the approval of dictators and thieves via the UN, the further complication of the legal system through judicial fiats, and naturally abortion on demand through all stages of development. So the Democrat's view of what's an 'absolute good' is the United Nations, Trial Lawyers, and Abortion.

And they wonder why they can't connect with average American voter.

That's enough for tonight...
