Has The Republican Party Become America’s Largest Hate Group?

The Republican Party has one go-to strategy to win elections – HATE. They tell their supporters that they have to hate immigrants, minorities, women, liberals, and the government, because all they know how to do is spread hate. So maybe we need to start calling the GOP a hate group?

Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this with journalist Daniel Denvir.

"He stole my 240 dollar Dewalt saw and yet says he didn't...strange he supposedly bought one just like it...even had a mark that I knew was there"

Oh..Well, I understand your feelings.

Republicans though say "I hate that son-of-a-bitch"
Who?
"Obama"
Why do you hate him?
"He's destroyed this country"
How?
"You have to ASK?...What?.. you LIKE that bastard?"
Ah..you still have not told me why you hate him.
"I'm through talking with you!!!!!"

(I go bang my head against the nearest wall)

I think they just hate for the fun of it.

"Why do you hate Obama?"
"Because he's a socialist commie"
"Why do you say that?"
"Because he's going to put in socialized medicine and death panels"
"Death panels? Why would anybody do that?"
"He wants to get rid of us because we hate him"
"Why do you hate Obama?"


"Why do you hate Obama?"
"'Cause he's gonna take our guns"
"Why would he do that?"
"So we can't take back our country"
"Take back your country?"
"Yeah we want it back because we hate him"
