Are all republicans evil? I'm just wondering, because some of the threads make them seem like such bad people. It's kind of scary actually.
Happy Holidays!

All Republicans are not evil.
My Grandfather (I called him Pop) was a Republican. He grew up with Pennsylvania Dutch Heritage, was a Vice President of the Bank now known as Fleet Bank, supported his parents, donated time and money to such organizations as the Humane society, American Cancer Society and others...
Pop even slipped me a few bucks (a portion of my income comes from a trust account he set up in my name......)
I am not registered with any political party, however I tend to lean towards the Democtic Party. I do vote in every election...
There are good people and not so good people everywhere, Republican, Democrat, short, tall, East Coast, West Coast, Ford or Chevy lovers. There is more to life than labels.

I think it is no longer politically correct for some to use the word republicans on this forum. That is not inflammatory enough and not a term any self respecting troll will use. The new term seems to be Fascist or Nazis or Racist. If you aren't a troll you are still allowed to use republican though.

<stirring the grammar/logic pot...>
Technically, saying that "All Republicans are not evil" is the same as saying "No Republicans are evil." The phrase should be "Not all Republicans are evil," thus implying that some are not and some may be.

SOME of the most wonderful people I know are Republicans.
SOME of the most wonderful people I know are Democrats.
The REST of the most wonderful people I know are Independents.

Let me make it easy for everyone:
Republicans = money and power
Democrats = brains and compassion
The end.

If Democrats = brains, how come Republicans = money and power? Is it all that "compassion"?

HCQ: 
Of course, in my life I've met many people with brains and no common sense. I'll take common sense every time - it takes you a lot further in life.
