Is Michael Steele ashamed to be a republic?
I mean really, look at he soothing blue, and the lack of mention of affiliation. The only reason I know he's a republic is that Democratic Party candidates are generally proud of the fact, and woldn't 'forget' to mention what party they belong to in their liturature and tv ads.

1. A republic?
Excellent. I suggest that all DUers from now on refer to them as republics, and to their party as the republic party. :rofl:

3. .
It actually reminds me of Star Wars. Kind of fitting because of the evil empire there...

4. Not original to me, just carrying the water.
Obviously I had similar thoughts.

2. He could be a monarchy for all we know
Perhaps even bicameral.

5. Could be but it's meant to return the mis use of democratic by republics
Recent reports say it's not inadvertent but deliberate.

6. The point is valid, and your construction is amusing.
And turning the tables is fair play.
