You are a profound idiot Ribit!
Don't lecture me on the meaning of words. Especially on what a republic is and what a democracy is. Your minimal use vocabulary and your more meager comprehension vocabulary makes you singularly unable to discourse on the etymology of the language. My language, obviously not yours.
Your idiocy is profound. Your intellectual laziness is telling. Once again you feel free to make comment on an article that again you did not even bother to read.
Your intellectual perspicacity does little to hide your raging inferiority complex. Of course what you don't know confounds you. Of course you are afraid of people who are you superiors.
You are a tiny little blackhead on the ass of the world my friend. You add nothing.
