[QUOTE="refineryworker05, post: 3390468, member: 66082"] No I don’t. republicans can be decent enough people on a personal level. But in general republicans are bigots when thinking about other groups of Americans. And the government and their vision of America is based on that bigotry. I think republicans feel that their America is dying. I think they feel like they are losing the cultural war that everyone is against them. So I think to maintain power, they have convinced themselves that lying to save America is good. Lying to defeat those who would destroy America is good. I also think republicans believe that certain racial groups are inferior in some ways and if given more power they’ll destroy America but that’s its politically incorrect to say that out loud. These beliefs are what unites republicans are all that matters to them. Policy is irrelevant. And I just have found repeatedly over the years that republicans don’t actually care about policy. They’ll defend the Iraq war for a decade and then drop it like it never mattered. They’ll be rabid on debt and deficits mattering and destroying the future and then drop it like never mattered. They’ll be defending the sanctity of marriage against gay marriage and then drop it like it never mattered. They’ll champion moral sexual behavior and then go on to champion a man that pays off his mistresses while his wife is pregnant. I came to the conclusion that stuff never mattered to republicans. But The racism always does. [/QUOTE]
