(2,781 posts)former co-workers, and ... not some of my family, but the ONLY reason I don't loathe some of the more outspoken Repubs. in my family is BECAUSE they are family.
I have what I call my 'bulldozer list' - i.e., if I was driving a bulldozer, and Palin, or Rick Perry, or Anne Coulter, or Rush, or Cheney, or ... a long list ... were to walk in front of me, well, I might accidentally hit the gas instead of the brakes.

(301 posts)self claimed moral authority that they feel they have over (let's be blunt about it) non whites.
I dislike their political manifesto, but I respect their right to it, but I CANNOT and WILL NOT accept their vile UNAMERICAN tactics.

codjh9
(2,781 posts)that's good... but it just happened. They don't just hate the lower class - they hate environmentalists (of which I'm a VERY strong one - isn't it bizarre to hate people that give a shit?), gays, lesbians, liberals, on and on.

(15,222 posts)You can feel the vibes! Seriously.
The can't stand ANYONE who isn't just like they are, and you can sense it. That's one of their traits that really irks me. I don't want to live in a world where people are all the same - think the same, act the same, care about the same things, etc.
I want to live in a world where being individual is celebrated and encouraged - no matter what that individuality may be. Whether it be religious choice, sexual orientation, talent driven (i.e., being an artist, etc.) or what. Each person should be able to live his/her life as they see fit. I do not like the Republican agenda to make us all little clones of what they believe people should be.

I wanted to slap the yuppie smirk off of his face.

(12,296 posts)Wonder if it crossed his mind at all that 2/3 of our team are Indian and possibly Buddhist, Hindu or not religious at all when he popped his "religous freedom" bracelets on ... And he's got that khaki & loafer wearing pudgy face pince-nez glasses Jeb Bush Grade A Yuppie Asswipe look about him ... Has no problem offending everyone else but will squeal like a piggie if someone "offends" him ...
Time to look for another job (again) ...

(2,500 posts)Somewhere along the way, they siezed the notion that cheating and fraud was okay. That's what tipped the scales against them for me. Although they don't all participate in criminal behavior during elections, they give tacit support with their silence. They know their party cheats and that their candidates lie, but yet they still support them. That indicates to me that they aren't honest themselves.

(666 posts)I never really disliked them so much until that 2000 election. And then the fact that a lady friend of mine married an ignorant R who was so glad that Clinton lost in the primary. I told him Obama was going to beat McCain but he thought no way. Now I truly do not like them -- and that is putting it mildly.
