I have friends that are republican ... The friends I have (of every political stripe) are not how you typify them. I know many, many republicans that are the way you describe ... I simply am not friends with them.
The republican friends I do have seem to have one consistent failing ... greed ... they will vote to preserve what THEY have.
You can choose to not have a friend that is a republican ... doesn't impact me whatsoever.
Again I choose to not align myself (befriend) with racists, sexists, homophobes ... sadly, I have encountered these folk that align themselves with Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians ... I am also not very fond of idiots and the willfully ignorant (again encountered in all groups that are identified as people)
