The Republican Dictionary
Bipartisanship (AKA "Reaching across the aisle", "Coming together", etc.) - When a Republican says "Bipartisanship", they are actually saying "You better obey us or we'll destroy you"

Democracy - When a Republican says "Democracy", they are actually saying "Evil, Mayhem, Terror, and general Villainy"

God - When a Republican says "God", they are actually saying "My biggest campaign contributors"

Reform - When a Republican says "Reform", they are actually saying "DESTROY! CRUSH, KILL, DESTROY! DESTROY THE THING AND DESTROY THE DESTROYED REMAINS OF THE DESTROYED THING! Hahaha!"

State's Rights - When a Republican says "State's Rights", they are actually saying "A State should have the right to segregate their schools and execute GLBT people!"
