Why do the Republicans?

Question

Why do the Republicans:
1. Hate gays?
2. Like to start wars with other countries, while killing off thousands of our own brave soldiers, for no reason at all?
3. Not care about our environment?
4. Give tax cuts to the rich, while not give 2 craps about blacks and the poor?
5. Follow blindly with their party, even if their party is making absolutely horrible decisions (i.e. George Bush..)?
6. Not care about the blue collar worker or the automotive industry?

Answer 1

1. We don't "hate gays". We just don't agree with their lifestyle or their selfish agenda.

2. WWI & II were both started by Democrats and we lost more in a month of either one of those than we have lost this entire war.

3. Republicans were the first to jump on the "recycle" wagon.

4. I make less than $30,000 a year and I saw my tax cut which was comparable to my income, just like you did.

5. I may not agree with some of his decisions, but I still support our president. Didn't agree with Clinton's decision to go into Bosnia, but we went and I supported that decision. Did you forget that he got us into that???

6. My father was a blue collar worker. All the blue collar workers I know vote Republican.

Before you start making generalizations, maybe you need to walk a mile in the shoes of one of these people you criticize and one of their supporters and see exactly what they do for us.

Answer 2

1) They do not hate gay people, they believe that marriage should be defined as being between a man and a woman. Take away the gay marriage issue and what evidence do you have of any gay bias by republicans?

2) Study history and you will find that more wars have been started by Democrats than Republicans.

3) They do care about the environment and support reasonable environmental effort. However they reject unproved science like the outrageous claims of the global warming crowd. They also reject treaties like Kyoto which are not designed to help the environment, but rather to punish large industrial nations.

4) Are you paying more in taxes under the Republicans? If not, I rest my case. I know I am not and I am definitely not rich.

5) Republicans do not follow blindly. Republicans are more critical of their own party than we have ever seen from Democrats about theirs. If you doubt this I will refer you to the last election, or do you believe Democrats got elected solely on Democrat votes?

6) Republicans believe in tax incentives which allow people to keep more of their money. They also believe in reasonable Capital gains taxes which allow investors to invest their money at a good return which stimulates job creation and buying power. These things help the blue collar worker.

I don't expect you to understand any of this because your post displays a completely partisan mindset and therefore you will not be open to alternative opinions. However, you really should try to broaden your horizons and examine actual facts rather than liberal rhetoric. Before you get it in your head that I am a Republican, I am not, I am an independent. I just cannot stand spin.

Why do Democrats:
1. hate gays, since they are always mocking gay Republicans and bringing this subject up?
2. Like to bug out of commitments like wars thereby making all of the sacrifices of our fighting men worthless, and always underfunding the military making victory impossible?
3. Not care about our future?
Complain about tax cuts that are constantly improving the Country, and want to bring us down by imposing penalties on those who are doing all the hiring? Why do they not realize that 90% of the taxes are paid by 10% of the citizens? Are they that stupid?
4. Blindly follow their Democratic Party leaders when it's been proven time after time that they are alcoholic, womanizing, lying, drug-addicted, embezzling cowards who couldn't make a decision without flip-flopping a dozen times, and who can't even get along with one another let alone keep their promises to act in a bi-partisan manner?
5. Not care about any blue collar workers because of their stupid tax increases that are going to force industry right out of the USA?
6. Blindly ask these idiotic questions when they know full well that they are full of bovine excrement and trying to shift the blame for their worthless attributes to others?

Answer 4

1) just because it has been voted on by citizens in some of the states that gay marriages should be ban, doesn't mean that they hate gays. Be gay I say. But don't expect to have legal rights for a unnatural lifestyle. Plus Wisconsin voted against gay marriage and they have been a Democratic state for a long time.

2) it wasn't Pres Bush that started this war. The American govt warned Saddam 3 times about weapons and he didn't allow us in to search. He was warned that we would use force and he said 'bring it on', thinking that we wouldn't. We are there because of Saddam and his men. Not because of the Al-Qeida attacks on us on 9/11. These are two separate terrorist groups. No American president have ever liked being in war but when the govt deems it, and the UN, a necessary choice, we need to walk the talk.

3) most environmentalists are Republicans, GreenPeace people voted republican in the past elections.

4) tax cuts change every 4 years with which ever party is in congress. The issue of tax breaks has always been an issue and a problems since taxed were forced on citizens. This isn't a Republican problem, it is an American Congress problem.

5) Your party is your family. Family should stick together. We don't know what is being said behind closed doors. We don't know the future. Try being president and see how well people will follow you or fight you. What about Clinton, Nixon and others when they have done crimes and had affairs yet their party tried to cover it up or justify it. Each party stays with their party and needs to in order to hold some control. Our govt is getting weaker every year and that's what the enemy wants. We hav eto stand together in order to keep the enemy out.

6) The president has TONS of issue he has to deal with every day. The president doesn't have power over every single company, organization, small business. Employment has always been an issue with every president. It always will be. We need to secure our borders and stop our American companies from going over seas. We need to keep jobs here for legal Americans to work at. No one can live on a minimum wage, even just a single person. Unless they live at home and don't own a car. Wages need to increase, product costs need to decrease, taxes need to be fair. Money is pride and has always caused chaos. It, again, isn't a repubican issue but an American issue.

Instead of harping on Pres Bush, come up with plans and tell our Congress. We are the people, our voices need to be heard, not just at election time but all the time. Stop dividing ourselves!

Answer 5

The replies here are indicative of right wing blindness to facts, in spite of those facts biting them on the butt on a daily basis.
1. Although I would agree in spirit as to the appearance right wingers "hate gays", I would disagree with such a sweeping statement. What I would say is that they abhor opposing or different lifestyles.
2 They wholeheartedly supported, and continue to support, in spite of all evidence to the contrary, the Iraq War. This blindness contributes to the continuation of this war, emboldening the officials responsible for and making its cessation more difficult, thus abetting the unnecessary killing and bloodshed in Iraq.
3. Although I would agree it gives the appearance of not caring about the environment, the conservatives are more interested in the bottom line dollar amount refocusing on the environment would entail. It appears they give what is pertinent "right now" monetarily more importance than what damage the environment is suffering and will continue to suffer if it is negative to their pocketbook to be more concerned.
4. I would agree that financial Darwinism is a main tenet of the conservative political stripe. Tax cuts for the wealthy presupposes those cuts will be "trickled down" to the lower and middle income portion of society. Although there may some small amount of this being done, these cuts generally go into the pocketbooks of stockholders, CEO's and others. Employees of these giant trickle down corporations see their pensions withdrawn, wages frozen, jobs moves out of the country or outright thievery among their Boards of Directors. e.g. Enron, Worldcomm, and others.
5. I wholdheartedly agree blind allegiance, no matter what, appears to be the partyline among many, if not most conservatives.
6. Republicans try to give the appearance of caring about blue collar workers, and many people have fallen for the propaganda without checking out the validity of it. Anyone looking at their ACTIONS regarding the middle class would be hard pressed to believe the WORDS they spew about it. IMHO, the American automotive industry has no one to blame but themselves.

Answer 6

1) We don't hate them, they enjoy more rights than straight people.
2)Democrats have gotten us involved in most of the wars in modern history.You may not accept the threat that Iraq posed but your elected Democrats did.
3)Everyone cares about the environment.We don't however believe it comes before people.The planet has been here a long time and killed off more species that we have today.We have EPA laws and are doing better than ever before on being clean.
4)You can not give tax cuts to those who do not pay taxes.All of the social programs are still in place.
5)We don't.
6)I am blue collar.The unions are what has killed the car makers in this country.At what they have to pay their employees and the fact that they can rarely fire one they can not be competitive with foreign manufacturers.
