Same here. "Republican" does not automatically mean "conservative", "evangelical", "fascist", or any other particular name. I have a general dislike for all politicians regardless of the group they ally themselves with, but I don't treat Republicans any different than I do Democrats. _________________ Regarding creationists: Aren't these the same people who gave us alchemy and astrology, and who told us the earth, besides being flat, was at the center of the universe?

Damn K7, tell us how you really feel
To answer your question: On a case by case basis
Some Republicans I know are utterly disgusted by what's gone on in Washington and feel like their party has betrayed them. Some are voting for the Dems this years strictly to punish their party, some are voting for the Dems in an attempt to genuinely change directions. Other's aren't voting at all because they are just too disgusted by the whole situation.
And then some are still clinging to the Rovian 'If you're not with us you're against us' ideology. These are the people who keep sending me the emails about how Obama is secretly a terrorist looking to destroy America (Because, ya know, his daddy was a Muslim and his middle name is Hussein. EVADANCE!) and how Hilliary wants to tax all of us into oblivion and use the money to build a huge Scrooge Mcduck style Money Bin to go swimming in. These are the ones who still cling to the idea that their party (for now anyway) is still actually about small government.
These people need to take a long walk of a short pier as far as I'm concerned. _________________ "Not everything that steps out of line, and thus 'abnormal', must necessarily be 'inferior'" - Hans Asperger, 1938 |

I dont hate Ron Paul, but I think he is insane, I know he appeals to the Republican's who might be jumping off the Bush ship

So, KL79, are you by any chance a Democrat?

I am just reading about how they are already starting a smear campaign against Michelle Obama in Tennessee
These people are the scums of the earth, all they do is smear and it works, that is how Bush got elected in 88 and how Bush got re-elected in 2004
I dont understand how rational people are able to deal with these scums of humanity |

Maybe it's just me, but "they are the scum of the earth" sounds a little like a smear. _________________ Nos laetus edo qui votum opprimo nobis.
