27. Democrats don't understand the term "democracy
Many of our Democratic friends apparently don't understand the term "democracy." When the majority wins, the minority accepts it and comes together for the common good.

OK, I'll accept that. Now tell me why the Republicans didn't follow that rule in 2000 when Gore had the majority?

I would think such an asinine statement would have to work both ways.
