Poll question: Republic or Republican?
If we start using their ignorant tactics (saying "Republic" instead of "Republican"), what does that say about us?

1. I personally don't call them that because I refer to the country as The Republic
and don't want to besmirch our country that way.

19. I've been calling them that for a few years already.
It just seems to roll off the tongue easily and I see them serving suds behind a bar with a big white apron around their fat middles. :toast:
