No surprise.
"Making claims of fact that you don't actually know to be true is lazy and stupid" and disruptive, which has been the motivation all along. And devoid of etiquette. A two year old with no class.

Yeah, no surprise as the members here express fallacies all day long claiming it as fact. Even looking at proof presented to them, their so bias they will never admit they're wrong or their view is.

This doesn't even need to be complicated for members here to sit in denial. The next move for them is to deflect and change the subject or vilify anyone that tries to present truth.

Classic case look back a couple pages BeanBrain thinks we live in a Democracy, when told no!! We live in a Republic, what did he do?

Both statements are true. We live in a democratic republic.

And you aren't trying to "present the truth". You're trying to spread a lie that you heard from one of your wingnut heroes.

Bush's Resesion.......another stament by BeanBrain.

I went though a lot of time and trouble pesenting fact....not media bullshit but laws that where passed and signed into law. All disproved that stupid statment but it doesn't matter in a zealots mind as he went in hiding.

So if I make a statment prove it's wrong and I'll look at it, but make it factual and not from your propaganda rage sites

It can't get any clearer than that.

A democracy is a government that is elected by the people.

I don't think I live in the "Government"

Although some of you have your heads so far up their ass a case can be made, maybe BeanBrain is right?

Actually, a pure democracy is a government that is run by the people themselves , the "demos" in Greek, without elected leaders at all. It doesn't work.

"A democratic republic is, strictly speaking, a country that is both a republic and a democracy. It is one where ultimate authority and power is derived from the citizens, and the government itself is run through elected officials."
