Welcome to the“It’s Another Day with Jim and Bill WEEKEND UPDATE”-EPISODE 648-The left wants to make an issue out of terminology. They seem to be upset when conservatives describe our country as being a constitutional republic as opposed to a democracy. They’d like to think that there’s some deep conspiracy behind the use of the word ‘republic’. They forget that Ben Franklin described this little experiment that we call the United States as being a ‘republic’. He should know. He was there at its founding. And is there a difference? Of course there is…and we talk about it. Thanks for tuning in.
