In all fairness, I don't believe Republicans are all racist bigots. I know personally know of many self proclaimed Republicans who are very open-minded. I can't imagine the Republican base is driven by those who vote because they hate another group.

Ok. Then I guess it's because I agree with them about 51% of the time.
They certainly do their fair share of sucking as well. No denying that.

Who wants to know and what's your game? I would only support the Republicans because they aren't the democrats! I will really support the Republican party when they get rid of the old school and start listening to those like Rand, Rubio, Gohmert, Ted Cruz, John Thune, Saxby Chamblis and upholding the Constitution, Bill of Rights and Declaration of Independence.

He didn't put it because it has nothing to do with conservatism/republican. it's just something that idiot liberals like to claim.

Got it?
