Even Republican Neo-Cons don't want them. So, ask yourself, who are these "Republicans" that do? Who and what is in that welcoming tent for them?
It's all just so ugly, so predictable, and so relentlessly reoccurring that it takes tremendous will ( and maybe blind faith ) to keep it from finally crushing the human spirit; and keep it from finally vacuum-sucking-out whatever is left of your soul.

I'm not sure that any Republican even remotely resembles what Republican meant at one point in time. I don't know what their policies are today exactly except to bring about the 'end times'. Barry Goldwater was able to read the writing on the wall “Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.” Apparently when you are acting in the name of God you can lie, cheat, steal even kill. You can treat other human beings horribly if they are of a different religion, ethnicity, political persuasion or sexuality. I wonder what God thinks about these people acting that way in His name? Anyway it's particularly frightening to understand that at least 48% of the United States agrees with this way of being Republican, this type of conservatism.
Republican is now synonymous with the Religious Right. And it's becoming synonymous with white supremacy. I can't believe close to 69 million Americans are okay with that. That is soul crushing.
