I love the country but I would hate the country that the GOP maggots would make it. They are a hateful evil bunch who should be extinct as a party. There is no reason the GOP should be allowed to exist in the future. The Ryan budget proves more than anything that they are the "eugenics" party. They are the racist bigoted theocratic white supremacist party who is determined to essentially murder the most vulnerable.
I would never serve in the military with a Republican. In my books they are not fellow Americans. Like I have said in the past the GOP and that ass Romney are really like public enemy number 1.
Progressives and liberals are attacked as not loving the country. The real issue is that as a progressive I will hate the country the GOP wants to produce. I would never pledge allegiance to anything the GOP wants.
There is no language on the planet that can adequately describe the evil that this GOP scum has become. GD the GOP.

As Bill Maher would say to you - "that's a false equivalency" IE - no comparison.
Back when I used to be a misguided republican I was at a wedding reception - room full of 'extreme' libs as you call
them. We got into heated discussions over political views but not ONCE did I ever feel threatened or in danger with
them.
I cannot say the same if our positions were opposite.

(52 posts)Why? For expressing the absolute truth when it comes to the right wing extremists who are no different than Nazis?
What would you do with them - give them a hug and tell them they're okay even though they don't represent the
normal, decent Americans which outnumber them (hopefully) by the millions?
Maybe you ought to think about dangerous naivety some kind hearted abeit clueless people have regarding true evil.

Forget about the object of this person's "hatred" for a moment. That's irrelevant to my point. This type of thought and language is not healthy for the hater. It's not fun to read, it's not something that I want to "agree" with, and it serves no positive purpose whatsoever to get people to want to share your perspective. It's pure rant... which is fine... but when one rants, one should be aware of how said rant will be perceived by others. I do not perceive this ranter as being a healthy and well-adjusted human, and this person is someone that I would probably try to stay far, far away from.
In fact, this is exactly the type of thought and language that I expect to see from the very people he is complaining about. I mean... he's using "should be extinct" language! This is exactly the kind of language, being used against fellow Americans, that makes the haters on "the other side" compare the haters on "our side" to Stalin and Hitler. Is that what you want?
So now can do a quick, online psychiatric analysis of someone because he says things you find distasteful? Ironically,
what you just wrote about him is almost INDENTICAL to what right wing religionist neocons have written about moi!!
Kinda puts you with some strange company doesn't it?
And more importantly, you are now mired in the very trap the far right puts out day after day for liberals. The right
wing who really are violent and dangerous as the original author describes them KNOWS that there are some on the
other side, perhaps many, who pretend to take the moral high ground in this war. But let me clue you in about
that - there is NO moral high ground when dealing with rabid people bent on destroying anyone who seems different
from them. I debated them for YEARS to no avail and was actually threatened by some of them. I penetrated certain
blogs of theirs where they were unaware of my being there - totally legal btw - no hacking or anything like that. And
the things they'd written when they thought no one from the Left was watching boggles one's mind and more
importantly, scared the crap out of me. And I can assure you, I do not scare very easily.
Now if you wanna try to reason with them - any of them, go for it. But please don't try to use pop psyche 101 on
the rest of us okay?
Being intolerant of hatred is not the same as hatred. Sorry.

(7,745 posts)I feel that behind many foolish Rethug is someone who cares about the country, but has been misled into believing a stupid and destructive ideology. They actually believe their ideology would make people better off.
I hate the people who push this ideology for their personal gains, i.e. Koch Brothers, Bush family.... I hate the people who are actively misleading the masses.
