(10,622 posts)19. Actually I feel the Palestinians are being horribly abused by the nation of Israel
I am anti-apartheid, but pro Democratic, you don't have to favor a Republican to support human rights.
Republicans, even the Reagan ones, are working against my interests, often with help from Republican enablers.
I believe Reagan Democrats are an oxymoron I also believe that supporting Republicans leads to adopting their policies.
I don't get why you support one over any Democrat, are there none you trust as much?

Yes, because Republicans have a sterling reputation for abiding by the law when in 'service'....

Hagel is not acceptable to me until he makes sufficient amends to the LGBT community.
