18. Ah yes. I don't know you but would like to be so presumptive to tell you that calling

our country a "republic" is a right-wing meme. I am not accusing you, just sayin. I believe that Thom Hartmann calls our government a Constitutional, Democratic Republic. Most people know that, and us Democracy for short. The repukes are offended that democracy sounds too much like Democrat so they insist on calling it a republic because that sounds better (idiots).

What ever it's called, it is dieing fast.
