This thread is not for bashing of any party. I just want to know who shares my political beliefs. I'm not here to get heckled, or to heckle anybody else. I just want to know who the Republicans are.
Every episode of firefly is better than most of the movies I see for my profession, and that makes it special.

Well, I'm not registered to any party, but I generally vote Republican. To me, they just seem to have better plans for the long term.
Sheridan--Do you review movies or what? Cuz that would be my dream job. Starting with "Serenity" of course!

Despite the posts I have made on this board in the political discussions, I am a registered Republican.
The more I get to know people the more I like my dogs.

I am right there with you guys. I am pleased to see that I am not the only one. Some of these threads make me uncomfortable enough that I just won't post. So does that make us browncoats or alliance? 
She understands, she doesn't comprehend

That is unfortunate, but hopefully the discourse here can be made more reasonable soon. After the election, it is typical for people to pretend like they want to mend bridges and discuss differences, but they are just words.
It is rare that someone actually wants to understand people that disagree with them. Human nature, pride, etc...
Earlier today, I thought I was being someone helpful in another thread and a "democrat" branded me a "republican" because I disagreed with how they communicated...
So maybe its appropriate that I replied in this thread, what with my apparent new party affiliation and all!
Cheers,
Gruesome

Yes I do. I'm only 16, but that doesn't mean I can't have Republican ideas. As for movie reviews, I do a review a week for my local newspaper, plus some other articles from time to time. Try smaller town papers to start out with, they usually don't have critics, but there are lots of people who send lots of E-Mails to these small town papers to get published. If you already live in a small town with a paper you have a better chance, as they tend to like locals better. Plus, I got in because I was a teen too, they though it would be an interesting perspective.
Oh, and I will be seeing Serenity come April 22. And I look forward to giving it a glowing review.

Conservative here too. Without giving some long , drawn out story of my all my political views, I voted for Bush - this time. This wasn't the case in 2000,but I digress. As one who is sans faith... yep, no belief in things religious or supernatural , an Atheist, I find it funny that folks like to paint ALL Conservatives as 'Right wing religious whackos'. I lean more toward the 'Right' side of the Libertarian party, which is what I call an evolved Republican.
Anyway, as per Firefly, I think I most relate to Mal in what I've seen from his view of politcs and religion. It's so refreshing that Joss et al can make such a character in Mal being the main character along with many different types of people. There really are folks out in the 'verse who have personally had their fill w/ religion, but aren't hostile or feel threatened by the beliefs of others.
" They don't like it when you shoot at 'em. I worked that out myself. "

Technically, I'm still an Independent, but I voted a straight-Republican ticket in this year's election, and I'm very conservative in my outlook.
