1. Most Republicans would find that funny.

Because they are so very tolerant of Democrats and other people who are not like them and who hold views other than their own. And, so self aware.

:rofl:

But, hey, don't be such a stranger. Come back soon.

P.S. Gene Wilder, like most intelligent, gifted folk, votes Democratic.

5. No clue about Willie Wonke, but Wilder votes Democratic.

To be 100% honest, I posted it based on gut instinct and the law of averages,, but then I googled immediately, so that I could change it if I were wrong before editing time expired.

I wasn't wrong, though. He said that he is "quietly political" and won't run for office (duh. I think he was around 80 when the reporter asked him if he'd ever run himself).

Can't speak to Willie Wonka because I have never been able to watch that movie. Come to think of it, maybe that means Wonka is a Republican.

2. I can hate those people

It doesn't prevent me from being open minded or tolerant it just means I strongly disagree.
Closed-minded and intolerant are when you try and silence those opinions so they cannot be expressed or discussed -- Kind of like filibustering

4. Do you really hate Southerners or Christians or Republicans, though?

Or do you hate the policies some Republican officeholders try to make the law of the land (or of some subdivision of this nation)?

For example, DD is a Christian and I am not sure exactly what to call myself, but I do pray to Jesus maybe about 115 times a day, on a slow day.

INO, the statement from which our guest poster claims to have gotten his, her or its laugh is based on several typically false premises and misapprehensions.
