why can't the dems admit they are all socialists?

Because the majority of the American people think socialism is evil and would never vote for someone who would call themselves that.  Plus, I don't know that they are aware of that fact

They might hype about all the great things done or wanting to get done like Ted Kennedy trying to increase minimum wage over the past many years all talk no action! The health care system etc. Oh apparently the democrats did stop the Republicans from tinkering with social security!Of course increase in paid rate benefits need to be added not elimination which would the Republicans intent!I believe the politicians are much more serious about lining their own pockets rather that the welfare of the public.

Yes they have an adgenda, it being a truly Christian political party, you know looking after the interests of all people in the USA INCLUDING THE POOR oh did I say a bad word!!!; you know raising the Minimum wage, stopping the GOP from attacking things like Food stamps, Medicade, Social Security, stopping Companys from denying employees there rightfull Pensions,  Stopping the GOP from making anymore Tax cuts for 3% of the population of our  nation.   Of course they will Purge the war on Terrorism, does anyone think that when a Democratic Government came to power they would instruct the CIA FBI Homeland security and all to lay of AlQueda!!! Of course not they would increase the security in our ports and Borders by reducing the amount of money spent in Iraq.  USA is not the world bank is it ???? why should the USA and the USA only be the sole supplier of ways to rebuild Iraq, hey Arabia is rich very rich as we all know, if the bordering countries to Iraq want peace in this country, let them cough up the moneytries for this purpose.\nThere is no link from Iraq to 9/11 all the people involved in 9/11 were Saudi fact!!!!! and how do you explain the London and Spain incedents and others, surly if all the Terrorists were purged from Iraq the london bombing could still have happend, so why are we spending $200 billion a year in Iraq $200 billion we could use badly in the USA!!\nI personally dont except that the World Economy is something America & Europe has to go along with. I would like to think that the Democratic party would give Tax incentives to Companys who build there Factorys in the USA employ American people and advertise that they are pulling for the American worker. \nIs it right that the GOP pulls for any worker but the American one!! Its all a cover up for the real truth that is " The non European or American worker will accept less money an hour" this is the real truth isnt it. So for starters the Democratic party will pull for the American worker inside the USA They will keep up the world wide war on Terror. And a Democratic Senate would move towards a National Health service, with some kind of means test and opt out for those who can afford Private Health Insurance, so that mothers no longer have to choose between Food or Medicine for there children in USA 2006, the truth is 50% of GOP adgenda is Democratic adgenda so nothing would change in most departments of Government, I mean our Armed forces are not Republican nor are the CIA FBI, they advise and obey the ruling party whoever they are.\nAs per your statements about Hillary Clinton, taking some of the Propaganda i have heard in the last 2 years to the ridiculous extent that some of you do, NO Mrs Clinton is not a AlQueda agent undercover, do you really believe this??? she wants Education in the USA to improve, she wants our Economy to thrive, Example she wants China to accept Exports from the USA, something not happening now \nI bet your sole bone of contention is :- does she agree with G W Bush on Iraq or not. full stop \nI would be interested if you have any other complaints about Hillarys Opinions; other than Iraq.and the War on terror.

Actually the Nazis had a socialist form of government.  Now I am not about to start comparing anyone to the Nazis and the atrocities they committed during WW2, but if you were going to compare the 2 major parties in the US, most people would say the Republicans are more capitalist and the Democrats are more socialist. Please post another question if you need a definition of socialism and capitalism, I will be glad to help educate you.

The Noe and Theo Cons have usurped traditional Republican beliefs. You have to wonder what is going on when the John Birch Society is more closely aligned with the Democrats on most issues. Everything bad in the world is Clinton's fault, except for the 8 years of Peace, Prosperity and a Budget surplus.

Socialists are all about control. Charity is bad in their eyes b/c it isn't pre-set and socialists can't control it. In their mind they are delivering equal 'justice' to all ppl, but conveniently taking money from others and giving it to the poor with THEIR OWN NAMES ON IT.

They don't.  And Barack Obama is a Democrat.

I am sure there are, but why would you want to do that?  Do you really think that you will get honesty in these websites?  If you do, I got a nice shiny new bridge to sell ya, foe cheap!  There are only 2 main parties in America, Dem's and Repubs.  Dems are socialists, Repubs are supposed to be conservatives, but many of them aren't.  Both are corrupt.  Both are full of liars.  Both are full of politicians (not leaders).  What most informed citizens end up doing is choosing the lesser of 2 evils, unfortunately.  May I suggest you start by studying the political history.  Then learn as much as you can independently about the parties and their politicians.  Be sure and note how often they contradict themselves, thinking nobody will notice.  There is no easy way or simple website adequate enough when it comes to choosing such a thing.  Don't try to oversimplify the process.  Do your homework, as tedious (and boring) as it may be.

They didn't. The Democratic party is the real big tent. The Republicans are the fakers.

The correct term for them is marxist.  I've heard Horowitz refer to them as neo-communists, but that doesn't really capture their essence, and neither does socialist.  The problem here is today's marxists don't even have a cogent plan for their particular implementation of marxism....just some vague agenda for destroying the United States and democracy in the world in the interests of "social justice".  However, just like all of the previous children of marxist thought......national socialism (nazism), socialism and communism, progressives and liberals are really all about genocide.  What they want.  What they support.  What they ALWAYS support, is nothing less than the murder of hundreds of millions of innocent people.  That really is all that marxism is about, when you pair it down to its essence.  It is the one repeating pattern that ties all of these people (including all liberals) and their behavior together.  It's their goal.  And it is a good reason to seriously consider rounding up and jailing the lot of them.

They are in fact all in it for self gain, but Repubs go overboard with greed and power to the point of serious corruption. They do not care who or how many they hurt. Dems however do show a little heart and do have a conscience.

they are mostly lapdogs for liberals, since they all seem to have been educated by the same socialist type professors with the same buzz words to know each other by...\n\ndont pay any attention to news that doesnt give you competing sides of every issue and let you make your own mind up...

The Republican and Democratic parties are so big and their bases are so broad, that their are hardly any issues that they can all agree on.  Usually it is based on the views of specific candidates for those parties, for that you can go to their websites to see where they stand on issues.

Don't call them Neo-Liberals just call them Socialist.

If I have to explain the difference between a democrat and a socialist to you then you are indeed in need of more help than i can provide you perhaps you should have studied while you were in school. but I will tell you this democrats believe in civil liberties that our founding fathers fought and died for Unlike your dictatorship government currently in charge that you would refer to as Republican. We believe that if a government wants to spy on its citizens it should present probable cause and persue a warrent... not will nilly spy on every law abideing citizen of the U.S.
