Let's see.\n\nIf you actually do any form of primitive Google search, the chairman got a golden parachute of 400M, not 1B.  Even if it was 1B, it wouldn't really matter that much.\n\nLast year, Exxon had 330B in revenues, so if you add back in 400M, that's around .1%.\n\nAssume you bought gas around 3$ per gallon.  .1% of that is 3/10 of a cent.  Depending on your usage, I'd say the typical person uses around 600 gallons a year.  So, you gave him $1.80.  Off 1B, it would have been closer to $5 last year.  The actual number is probably slightly higher because things that needed transport would have been passed on, but you get the general idea.\n\nPeople get hung up on someone's pay but never get around to figuring out how much it actually affects them.  Do you still worry about how much Bill Gates makes or the CEO of Google (who's made billions in the last couple years also), etc.?

I am a registered republican, though I will have to agree that 90% of democrats are smarter than republicans.

She was just elected with 67% of the vote.  What do you mean hate?  You are misinformed.  Why do Republicans hate her, would be more appropriate.  That answer would be, because she threatens their power.

I vote democrat, I may be sorry about it later, but not as sorry as I would if republicans kept control.

I don't hate you, but I am not a conservative either.  And I think the hate is not coming from conservatives either, but from these "neocons" that have taken control of the "old" republican party.

Actually, all MY friends voted for Bush in 2000...\n\nthen went on to regret it and changed their minds, got some sense...\n\nJ.K.\n\nI don't hate all Republicans; I love to eat the dead flesh of chickens, cows, pigs, and fish; I go to church all Sunday that I can wake up early enough; I would like to BE a rich, white guy (but I still wouldn't change parties...there's a lot of rich Democrats).\n\nPeople I generally don't like (hate's a little strong):  bigots, people who spout the exact same words I hear on FOX News, people who start a political debate by using insulting words, people who say disagreeing with the war means you hate the USA.\n\nPeople I do hate:  Ann Coulter (she pretty much manages to put all of my dislikes together into one package that she claims is pretty...I say eat a sandwich and check yourself into a mental health center you shrew...Sorry, she does piss me off.)\n\nOtherwise, I enjoy political debate when it's done with respect, courtesy, and a sense of humor, and I don't hate people who believe differently from me.  I only hate people who hate people who don't believe like them.

Frankly, I believe they have taken there hate so far that they would rather see us fail in the war so that they can use that against the Republicans.

I think the ones that bark about it the most are the ones that are the most curious.  Heck, the republican party is seeing so much grief about it with their people.  If they don't like gays and lesbians so much, heck why do they have a VP with a lesbian daughter?  Well damn, that will make u scratch ur head.

I'm not a Republican myself, but I know several people who are deeply upset that their party is responsible for causing so much harm.  The problem is, they're not too thrilled with the alternatives either.\n\nPeople who still support Bush, at this point, are either painfully ignorant or pathologically delusional.  Maybe they're caught up in the gamesmanship of it; it's like rooting for a sports team and they'll keep rooting for their team no matter what, without thought. Or maybe they're motivated by hate and fear.  Or maybe they were raised with certain alliegances and now they would feel disloyal if they changed.\n\nBottom line is, they're misinformed, uninformed, prejudiced or just plain stupid.

Aren't something like 38% of Americans self-proclaimed independents who just align themselves with whatever party they agree with the most come election time?  So to answer your question, no, I do not think you are the only one unhappy with our wide open field of two party choices.

Republicans are afraid of everything and everyone that does not agree with them.  Just mention Hillary for President and watch them go apoplectic.  \n\nThey have got to be the sorest losers on the planet.

Republicans are the most hypocrite most treacherous bunch that ever existed in this country.  They are the enemies of the US but will always put on the "patriotic" masks to hide their treason and to try to convince others.  Right now they're trying to recruit in ghettos so black boys & girls (those people that Cons hate) go fight in the war after being promissed free education and money.

I find that frustrating as well. They seem to behave like spoiled bad-sports about everything, and they just argue the surface points with as much justification as they can muster (even to the extent of bringing in conspiracy theory) rather than adding depth by getting to the deeper causitive details. Very Immature!\n\nI really don't understand why they hate Bush so much PERSONALLY. You could hate all his policies & so much of what he's done, but why is it personal? And, just for the sake of argument lets say a Republican wins in 08, are they then going to hate that guy like this too? Why all the hate? Is it about not being able to win an election? That might have something to do with running liberal candidates that swing voters won't go for, or the fact that most of America doesn't agree with their agenda. At some point they have to accept reality and shift their party closer to the center. In the meantime, how many elections do they have to lose before they realize they aren't the mainstream? Those are all serious questions by the way.

Republicans are what's WRONG with America.  They are the ones breeding ignorance and hatred. They're killing us.

Not the Republicans, they don't believe in Global Warming and pollution. They have actually allowed the emissions to double in the last 6 years because the deregulated the pollution control guidelines. Bush hates America.
