1. The thing that stands out to me (not American)...they're mean-spirited!
I don't know about the average citizen Republican, but just about ALL the Republicans I've seen on TV stand out from the Democrats because there seems to be a basic meanness about them. I don't see this in the Democrats.....IMO :)

3. Well put...
The Repukes that I know seem to always have a chip on their soulder and seem to always be pissed about something... They can't stand the poor, they think African Americans get to much from Uncle Sam, they hate Gays, they hate Hollywood, etc..etc..etc... They're just miserable!

2. All you need to become a Republican is to have
the parts of your brain that govern reason and compassion disabled.

4. Selfish and lacking in compassion.
Very common characteristics among Republicans.

5. Depends...

And yes, I mean "Depends," as in the adult diaper. You would have to become a regular buyer of them because it seems that every thing on this planet pisses Republicans off. Big time!

7. Much wealthier or much more ignorant.
An inclination toward bigotry and intolerance helps, too.

8. closed minded and only able to view society from the top looking down.
The biggest problem with repubs is that they cannot and will not look at society from any other view than their own. Typically this is the white man who is looking down at society from the top of the food chain.

It's only when you can look at our country from a different PERSPECTIVE that you can understand why things are the way they are.
