Navydads Political Talk Rules and Guidelines

1. Whether Republican or Democrat we are all on the same team - The Navy's
2. Name calling or threats to any member because of their political stance will not be tolerated
3. Respect each others political views and debate them in a civil manner
4. Only a healthy debate will be allowed on this site
5. With the rules in place please feel free to join in on the debate

John and Luis have set a wonderful example of how we should debate things in a civil manner. I just want to be up front with everyone who participates in this discussion that I will not let this get out of hand. I want to warn everyone that this site is here to benefit us with our children's journey through the Navy not to slam each others political beliefs.

That being said I do understand that the next commander in chief will be relevant to us Navy parents. I encourage healthy debates when it comes to politics. It's what makes this country so great. We can have our own beliefs and we get to vote for whom we want in office. All I ask is for everyone to debate in a healthy manner not in a negative manner. Express your views and let others express theirs. I do not want this to be a negative response to this candidate or a negative response to that candidate. We all know that political talks can quickly become shouting matches and this is not the site for it.

Whichever candidate wins this election will be the one that we need to stand behind and support because this person will be our children's commander in chief. In the military it doesn't come down to whether you are a Republican or Democrat. In a time of war it comes down to protect your brothers in arms no matter what branch of military they are in or what their political, religious beliefs are. Navy, Marines, Airforce, Army and Coast Guard when it comes down to it will fight side by side to defend this great country's freedoms no matter where they come from.

Sincerely, Navydads Creator

Obamas aunt is on the entitlement train if you disagree then you are a racist . I guess i am a racist.

Kevin in the picture here is quite the norm in our public school system. I am surprised that the teacher is having the kids do the pledge. After all we cant offend any one, there might be a Muslim in the room.

Comment by Rex on October 13, 2010 at 10:35am: This is some more stupid politicians on both sides of the isle doing what they do best. They should all be ashamed at what crap they are pulling on the American public. I guess the old saying fits.
"Stupid is as stupid does"

Comment by Mike Stark on October 12, 2010 at 12:32pm: Another late Rockwell, titled "Right to Know".

If I'm remembering the tour guide correctly, this was a Watergate response, where the people are demanding account from their government. This may have some resonance for Tea Partiers as well.
If any of you get up to the Berkshires, the Rockwell Museum is well worth the time.

Comment by Mike Stark on October 12, 2010 at 11:20am: The numbers don't lie -- on the Civil Rights Act of 1964 you had bipartisan opposition (to the extent republicans existed in the south) in the old Confederate states, and bipartisan support from the Union states and the west.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Act_of_1964#By_party_and_...

given that the southern GOP had all of 10 representatives and 1 senator, you are correct that the tomato was thrown by a Democrat. But not a single southern republican stood for civil rights, either.

What, you were expecting me to defend the indefensible?

Racial Hatred for Blacks

Funny thing is the great Southern Democates made the Jim Crow Laws and they were the ones trying to prevent integration.
The tomato splattered on the wall in your photo Mike, was probably thrown by one of these great Democrates that Rockwell denounced.

Comment by Mike Stark on October 12, 2010 at 7:06am: oops, lost some text -- I think Rockwell would be denounced as a liberal in today's politics, when in my mind he IS the American mainstream.
