The entire problem with American politics comes down to genetics. Republicans are born with no ability to see things from any point of view other than their own. This lack of the POV gene being biological in nature – or as smart people often refer to as “immutable cause” – means that making fun of Republicans for being the callous intolerant selfishness bigots they are would be discriminatory and bigoted. So please from now on if you can’t find anything nice to say about Republicans shut yer bigoted pie hole! Unless of course you want to play the game from their deck as they do regarding Gays and Lesbians. In that case HAVE AT IT and take the consequences.
From this insight we find that there are three kinds of Republicans. Over the years I have found an easy way to find which kind you are dealing with from the gitgo. Throw the words “empathy” and “altruism” at them.
You will find the first kind of conservative will react with some giggling, a bit of snort-snotting and an exaggerated eye roll upon hearing those words. And if you make any hay of their nasty cynical response to kindness you will more often than not hear, “…and I sleep like a baby.”
The second kind of Republicans – who are more Christian and Southern – you will find have no idea in what the fck “altruism” or “empathy” mean, yet alone “immutable cause.”
And the third and most numerous Republicans are both nasty and stupid. And for the most part ugly.
