Do Democrats hate Republicans?
912924
Our family is split. Four Democrats and Four Republicans. And one that flip flops. I don't hate them and they don't hate me, but some of them hate each other. My brothers have already got into a fight about politics and it almost came to blows. I guess it just boils down to we all think we are right. If I believe that abortion is murder my brother believes it's a woman's right to chose. I can't change his mind. If I say we should give businesses tax breaks because businesses use that money to create more jobs by buying more capital, then he says that businesses just pocket the money. How do you convince someone that doesn't want to see the truth? It makes me angry that Democrats can't see the big picture. But maybe they see it the other way around. i don't know. The hate is definitely there, but I don't see it coming mostly from the Republicans. It comes from an uneducated, self-loving, and disillusioned group of Democrats.

Seriously, that is one thing I noticed a long time ago about Republicans and part of what made me switch parties to democrat. \n\nThere seems to be this mentality in the Republican party to constantly blame ANYTHING or ANYBODY else you can for whatever downfall you see in the country at that moment.\n\nThat could be gays demoralizing our nation to those darn anti-patriot treasonist liberals. LOL

Democrat.  No.  Socialism does not work.  Neither does conservatism, which is one of the greatest scourges of human history.  Extremism is always bad for America.  That is why Democrats have been willing to fight fascists and communists alike, when Republicans would - and did - cut and run, and why Democrats have always supported the operations in Afghanistan.  "Of the people, by the people, for the people" is not a socialist tenet; how far Republicans have fallen from the height Abraham Lincoln set them upon!  Democrats won't turn America socialist; the idea that they would is just one of the many lies told by conservatives for the past hundred years or so.  For all their supposed morality, conservatives have proven to be the most corrupt and immoral of all; before Mark Foley there was Sulla of Rome.

Well, thanks for the references to Rush and Drudge and Fox. Now I realize that it's really a lie that people of color tend to support democrats more than republicans. \nSo, you must be mistaken in your assumption. There really are lots of people of color at the conventions (well, maybe not as delegates, but they're around). You certainly can't believe your eyes, and you can't believe the polls.\nSo thanks, Rush and Sean and partners for setting me straight. It's really the Democrats who are bigoted, racist, and homophobic. The Republicans don't care if you are black, hispanic, gay, lesbian, atheist, muslim, rich, or poor. They welcome everyone to their fold!\nAnd to think I used to believe that Republican policies were hazardous to gays, non-Christians, minorities, and the poor. They really do want gays to marry each other, non-Christians to have as many rights as Christians, taxes that favor the poor, etc.

Republicans disgust me. They are liars and manipulators. Dividers. Fear mongers. Smiling when they talk about war and grinning when they tell their lies and distort their record. Trying to impose their hateful morals on the rest of the world, they're nothing but the Taliban reborn. Have you seen their platform? Have you listened to their speeches? These warmongers?

Another liberal American hater. Instead of just being haters how about come up with some ideas that would help make this world a better place. The democrats have not worked with this President or this congress at all. During the Clinton administration the Republicans crossed party lines and approved all of his judicial nominees and passed many pieces of legislation because they want to be a part of the solution and not the problem. Liberals are the most despicable people on earth. I rate them right up there with the French.

I'm a Republican... The majority of the Democrats are morally wrong, and are all for that stuff....  Its almost like a sickness... They whine and stomp their feet about our soldiers being over in Iraq, fighting for our Country, and then they whine and stomp their feet for gay rights, etc.....Does that make sense..... Scary bunch of people, huh...

NO? It's usually Democrat or Republican and occasion Independent.  \n\nBut it would be nice to destroy the Republican Party.

Absolutely.  It's just that the Democrats want you to believe that if you're republican, you want to rape and pillage the land.  That couldn't be further from the truth.

Julia Robert said something like that.\nShe said Republicans can be found in a dictionary between Reptile and Repugnant or something...\n\nIt's a myth that Neo-liberals are tolerant and inclusive.\n\nYOU NOTICE MOST OF THE NAME CALLINGS AND EMOTIONAL/IRRATIONAL ATTACK COMES FROM LIBERALS...

abortion... if a democrats were against abortion, it would be a long time before a republican won anything... there are more than enough people that vote on this issue alone to turn the tide permanently to the democrats... \n\nmaybe democrats should just say they are against abortion and don't do anything about it... like the conservatives do...\n\ninterested: believe it or not... just being a liberal, it doesn't mean you hate conservatives... although by the way some conservatives act, the majority of them hate all liberals it seems... \nhe is talking more about his actions and what party they are more consistent with... and I agree that I think they are more consistent with liberals...\n\nnormobrian: can you cite those... I think I missed them in my bible...

No they will blame the Democrats for being cowards. Cowardace always makes the bullies stronger and meaner.

Most Democrats ARE Caucasians, and we don't hate ourselves. We do however hate bigotry and try to legislate against it at every opportunity. We try our best to judge others by the content of their character, and not by the color of their skin. So, while we hate bigots, and while most bigots (and certainly the most prominent bigots) are Caucasian, that does not mean that we hate Caucasians. \n\nTO BMAN: Well over half of Democratic voters are white and will be for the forseeable future. If we were truly "anti-white" we couldn't get more than 10-20% of the electorate. But we ARE "anti" a few other things, among them:\n. . INJUSTICE\n. . INEQUALITY\n. . UNFAIRNESS\n. . LYING\n. . STUPIDITY\n. . HATRED\n. . VIOLENCE\n\nTO WEASERED: Most Democrats don't listen to Rap or R&B\n\nTO ANNOYING: Democrats don't feel guilty; we are angry that criminals, liars and bigots currently running the government DON'T feel guilty (and that they are not wearing orange jumpsuits and making license plates).\n\nTO EVENSOUT: Democrats don't hate themselves, we hate the bigotry, lies, and crimes of the people that currently run the country. When we say that slavery, conquest, and greed are bad, we don't say that because we think WE are guilty of slavery, conquest, and greed. We say that because we KNOW our enemies are guilty of slavery, conquest, and greed. We may want to fix past abuses, but not because we feel guilty. We want to fix things because they are broken and they need to be fixed.\n\nTO REVEREND BIFF: Amen, brutha! Ah'm a WITNESS!!

I think the ideals of the Republican party are superior.  Unfortunately, they are not currently practicing these ideals.  So you want to vote Democrat to give Republicans a spanking for their corruption and ineffectiveness.  But you realize Democrats will cause problems for this country because they do not understand reality.  So for this election, you flip a coin and pray!

Yes.  Kerry is the face of the Democratic Party.  Kerry hates the troops, like all Democrats do.  Only, Kerry slipped up and admitted it in public.
