Why do Republicans attack people who question their ethics by saying get a life?

Question

i dont have a life because i am questioning the republicans? doesnt it seem like anyone not intelligent enough to refrain from making comments like get a life or you need meds is the person who cannot think straight? is it true that the real reason why people support the republican party is that they just dont have the capacity to think things out and see that the republican party is destroying our world?

Answer 1

You mean like Teddy Kennedy? Oh wait! Nevermind.

Answer 2

I would love to answer this question, but you have failed to point out the rational behind the question. What did you ask to get those comments? Was it hateful, stupid, ignorant (that can be forgiven), or purposefully insulting?
Come on, tell the whole story.
I guess I can answer like a lib and say that everyone does it.

I went and looked at some of your previous questions and answers; they were stupid, hateful, and purposefully insulting.
My advise (I know you won't take it) get an education (that means read a book and not use wikipedia), think long term about your values, go back and study our constitution, and there was something else... yeah, Get a Life !(William Shatner)

Answer 3

Republicans and Democrats attack in different ways - individuals often have strengths that work for either party, rather than having hate dominate their lives. Both are wrong enough to make it a waste to me, and both are so corrupt and off balance that they are ineffective at doing anything but mostly cancelling themselves out. I blog about it at spinornospin.blogspot.com (full disclosure, I'm not paid but the ad is sponsored). Don't hate a group because of an individual, but remember that group dynamics often alter individuals in a negative way.

Answer 4

My guess is that they attack you in retaliation, since you can't ask a question without attacking Republicans. If you're so smart like you want others to believe that you are, then why can't you ask a question without insulting someone else? Maybe you're asking this question because you don't have capacity to think things out,and see that if you attack someone they will attack back.

Answer 5

You do really there are crazy Republicans AND Democrats right? And questions like this is like adding gasoline to their fires on both sides. If you want to ask a question about a specific policy, you will usually get intelligent answers. But most intelligent political people avoid the typical Dem/Rep bashing.

Answer 6

So you’re upset that republicans say “get a life” to anyone who questions them…all the while you criticize them by saying the can’t think straight?

Are you saying that you too are a Republican?

I think the very same shtick was used on comedy central…or was it a rerun of the View...

Answer 7

Here's a tissue.

I think al Qaeda would destroy our world (or at least western society), given the chance.

Please don't paint all Republicans the same. I can think of a lot of Democrats who by their action or lack thereof have enabled acts of violence to take place.

Answer 8

I think you would see less of such comments if your questions weren't so antagonistic and generalized stereotyping. When you purposefully try to annoy people with no substantive arguments to back up your statements, then "Get a life" is as good an answer as any.

Answer 9

Whatever, get a life. I see more from the left hating the right because we don't agree with them..... and yes, I'm being sarcastic.

Answer 10

because they have nothing else.

the republicans have such a low level of candidate either in office or running for office that they can almost literally never just run on the person's record or strength of character.

so, with basic integrity and compassion off the table for republicans they are left with smear and fear tactics.

if they don't wise up, they need be swept out via the next two or three elections.

here's hoping that a decent 3rd party rises - the dems just aren't up to doing this on their own...
