Things Republicans dislike...education, conservation, government (its too liberal, like, anything beyond their red stater tin can house), poor people (welfare), old people (social security), disabled people (medicaid), and really, anything beyond their grasp of understanding in the world.

Get up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?
Education? Sorry, but many Republicans, including this one, have higher degrees than you could ever hope to get.
Conservation? Sorry, but I recycle, ride a bike to work a couple of times a week, and deal more with the environment than you could ever hope to.
Government? Yes, we don't like it. Why? Because the Founders didn't like it, and they tried to give us as little of it as possible. On the other hand, the liberals keep trying to give us 50x the government that George III could have ever dreamed of.
Poor people? I don't dislike poor people. I was once poor myself. You know what I did? Got an education and made my own way. I didn't whine about my circumstance or look for a hand-out; I did what I needed to do.
Old people? I don't dislike old people, except when they're behind the wheel. I dislike a system that robs from the young to pay for the old; I dislike a Ponzi scheme that basically makes sure that no one can keep their own money for their own retirement.
Disabled people? I don't like disabled people, except for getting the best parking spots at the mall. Medicaid is about too many people taking advantage of the medical system and flooding it with trivial illnesses when the rest of us, who pay for our own insurance, go to Walgreen's and get our own medicine
I dare say I understand this world a lot better than you do. I understand that most sane people don't want the government up their asses every minute of every day, that they want to live their lives as they see fit, not how someone else does. That they want to make money, go home and enjoy the fruits of their labor in their own backyard with their grill and their patio and their big screen TV. They want to read what they want to read, watch what they want to watch, sleep with who they wish to sleep with, and keep as much of their own money as they can in their own damn wallet.

It's just part of a mindset. But you've forgotten a key item: hatred of godless science, but full acceptance of every technological convenience and medical advance. And you're being unfair about the disability payments. As long as someone has a missing limb or is sitting in a wheelchair speechless and drooling, Republicans will allow disability benefits.

Constipation.
When you are that totally full of **** and gotta keep it in because no one wants to hear, smell or see it...you become grumpy.
Sadly, if you give a full enema to a republican, there is usually nothing left afterwards because they are truly a species with **** for brains.

Since it is patently obvious that you are not a Republican, what kind of fool are you to tell us what we like and don't like? You know what is said about folks who make A$s-umptions, doncha? BTW, at a GOP fundraiser last week, everyone was styling like you wouldn't believe!

They weren't always so scared.
They used to be a party of real
conservative sensibility.

Conservatives are scared because they are losing and they know it. They are like a desperate wounded dying stupid animal wailing in it's death throes.

It's a control issue, and if they are not in control they lose all traces of civility.

They are not sure how to handle these issues, duh, so they do nothing. Just like the war, they don't know how to exit , so they don't.
