I have a question I want an answer to. Why do almost all republicans

have the ability to make their eyebrows look like this when talking:
/ I tried to put the other slash there but it won't show up.

Is that a conservate trait, is that ability required in order to be a republican because they all can do it when being questioned about a wrong doing.

That's not easy to do for many people, but it's second nature to them.

It's one of the "tells" of a liar or a someone who's in the habit of cheating people. They open their eyes wider which make their brows go up over the bridge of the nose, it "shows they care".

Works sort of like this:

_ _
. . Normal GOP "at rest" eyes and eyebrows

/ _ (On edit - the backslash is not showing up whenever I post, so this person's just lifting one eyebrow instead of both)
O O "Believe Me, I'm such a good caring person" eyes and eyebrows

Zombie Eyed Granny Killer Ryan is a master at this sort of look.
