The Republicans hate you
Edited on Fri Jul-30-10 08:14 AM by Renew Deal
Chances are that if you're a member of one of these groups, the republicans hate your guts and will let you know.

1. Add all of us union workers to the list
That is, if we're not already in one of the groups already named.

2. Good thing Liberals are not on that list, I wouldn't want them to hate me.
:shrug: Hate is their strongest "family value"

4. Yes, it's the abridged version.
Sadly I don't have time to list them all.

5. There is no reason to be so specific - Republicans hate you unless you are a wealthy, white, adult
straight, Christian, male who is not disabled or sick.

If you are poor (or middle class), non-white, a child, a woman, disabled, not Christian, you can be sure that Republicans hate you. As do most Democrats (in politics).

7. How is that ignorant? It's the truth.
Show me something Republicans have done to help the poor, non-white, middle class, women, children, the disabled, the sick and elderly?

Name one thing.

9. Back up your post with a fact or two. And no, "Condoleeza Rice" is not an entire argument.

10. People who fall into the hated groups who tow the line make them stronger, so they let them
play. It doesn't mean they don't still hate them.

11. Wrong on hispanics (specifically illegal immigrants)
They only hate illegal immigrants during recession; as another DUer pointed out recently, when the economy is thriving, they LOVE the brakes on wage increases for workers which illegal immigrants provide.

17. I think the point is that they care more (politically) depending on the economic
climate.

16. No, Mr. & Ms. Leftwinger, they expect you to die!!
Isn't that the ultimate result of what would happen, if Republicans and their supporters really were able to achieve most of their goals?

If a conservative becomes unemployed, and remains jobless for more than six months, does he or she become one of those that are hated as well?

Using their litany of talking points, such as "personal responsibility", "small government", "tax cuts", "the war on terrorism" "entitlements" "homeland defense" "take our country back" "privatization" "free trade" "right to work" "socialism" "tree-huggers" "drill baby drill" and "illegal immigration" are a means to an end to systematically eliminate anyone whom they hate here in the US, as well as the world.

I have read many posts online on their forums, where some of the more whacked of the reichwing for example, want the US to nuke Iran and North Korea, until the rubble "bounces".

18. Workers
They have always hated Workers the most, the others are good press and fun for them to target their zealot-missiles at.

19. They hate all ex-fetuses, even those they depend upon for their own survival.
farmers, miners, oil workers, soldiers, private security guards.
