And mine would be chauvanism, eh, Wisemon?
In the 1964, there was an election between Lyndon Johnson and a man named Barry Goldwater. Barry Goldwater was a man who was against the expansion of government, and basically supported small gvoernment (a conservative in the actual sense). But, he also was a adament supporter of McCarthyism and of the Vietnam war. Because of his loss the Republican party made a shift towards big government, and now support the welfare state, vast regulations on the economy, the bloated beraucracy ete. Every Republican since had been almost as big government as a Democrat (liberal-centrists), and in some bases even bigger (ala Bush Jr.)
And why did this shift happen?
What an aorrgant thing to say. Fuck, you never changed me. I'm nto a "master debater", you're not a "master debater". Get over yourself.
