I fucking hate Republicans.

18. I can remember a time when I just didn't understand them.

And I remember a time when not all republicans were racists and many were more moderate in their approach to economics. But somewhere in the era of Reagan, that changed. They began their Southern Strategy and roped in many of the evangelical so-called Christians in the Bible Belt regions and swept in the old remnants of the Dixiecrats from the '60s. They are more than repugnant to me. Their hatred and xenophobia will lead them ignorantly to vote against their own economic self-interests -- over and over again, despite seeing and experiencing what rethuglican economics will do to them -- over and over again. Their racial hatred leads them to become the walking symbols of the definition of crazy: doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result. So, yeah. I hate them.
