They don't want gays to marry and have a family with the same rights as everyone else. They don't want senior citizens to get medicare/medicade
or social security. They get payoffs from the oil companies and expect us to all pay at the pump. They get payoffs from the drug companies and expect us to do without or pay through the nose. They said they were the party that would protect us but 9/11 happened on their watch. They said they were the physically conservatives but put us in the greatest debt this country has ever seen by going into a war with Iraq instead of going after bin-Laden. They want to take away unions and let the CEO's continue to take away employees' pensions while they keep their golden parachutes. They are great at starting wars but never finish them.
Yes, why do Republicans want to hurt people ? I really want to know.
The only thing I can think of is they're being paid off by the CEO's and large corporations and the rest of us are will get the shaft and they don't care.

While ignoring Obamas war mongering and unprecedented defense budget.

Good questions!

Here's another one.

Why do liberals continually post the same debunked lies?

There is a long list of things that can be said for the liberals too.

It's not exclusive.
Your complaint lies with politicians in general.
A portion of your post though is rhetoric put out by Dems to the press though instead of reality.

You lost me when you blamed 9/11 on Republicans. Such tripe doesn't deserve a dignified response.

The usual Republicans come on here and say things but what you're saying is completely false or what you have heard on Faux News.

If you didn't want Republicans to answer these questions why did you even ask them? Now please, back to the getting paid to hurt ignorant liberals... we need details.

bzzz, as usual, lefties got it wrong again. Its Democrats that want to hurt people.

Welfare, perpetuates poverty
Social Security, provides people an incentive not to save and invest
Their policies like raising minimum wages and not letting market decide, puts people out of work
Their tax policies encourage offshorting of jobs and money

In fact, there isnt ONE liberal policy which makes people BETTER.. They ALL are setup to encourage a dumbing down of society...

I don't think they want to hurt people, they just want to help the super rich, if it happens to hurt people, oh well, who cares. It's not just the Republicans by the way, Democrats are guilty of this as well.
