Red, white and blue

Without further comment.  (Except that if you try to assert this image means I think only white people belong in America or any such bullshit, I shall ridicule you unmercifully.)

What if I assert that it means you're like to remake the US in the image of France?

Then I shall make cheese jokes. :)

Almost anyone else on my friend's list, I would call their bluff. But not you, my friend. ;)

So you're saying that all Republicans are American Indians

Nonsense, lad. Most of then can't even fake a convincing Indian accent, let alone speak the language.

But what about us right anarchist libertarians?

My mom always says the white stripe is in the middle of the Irish flag to keep the Protestants and Catholics from killing each other. (I'm not sure which group is green and which is orange, but I'm sure she knows.)

Fortunately, the US hasn't gone that far yet. So far, the Republican and Democratic parties seem to settle for calling each other names and trying to make each other's lives as miserable as they can manage.

Orange = Protestant
Green = Catholic (St Pat's -> wearing o' th' green...)

If you really want to stir up trouble, wear orange on St Patrick's Day.....

Or just call your local Irishman a "black and tan"

I'm afraid I don't understand why anyone would reach the conclusion you postulate. After all, all the literate portions of your posting are in black...

[unixronin.livejournal.com]

Heh. :) A good point...

I suppose compared to diehard Libertarians the Republicans *are* Reds...

[unixronin.livejournal.com]

No, ... while there are wackos out there, I think the libertarian movement as a whole goes off in a different direction that's neither right nor left, just like the Greens did in the 1970s. It's a mistake to think of any nation's political spectrum as a single one-dimensional line.
