The most frequently asked questions ...

... about Republicans over the past few years:

Are they really THAT stupid?

Are they really THAT hypocritical?

Are they really willing to stoop THAT low?


I don't know why we bother to keep asking the questions, when the answers are so bleedin' obvious.

They will support an evil person who hurts them over a good person who helps them.

Think all politicians lie and are silly, that is what one told me who works long hours watches little news and says their all the same. Trump doesn't mean most of what he says he just trying to stir people up for attention.

That is a family member and we just agreed not to talk politics. The few times I tried to tell the truth she comes out with I vote for republicans because they keep my taxes low. She makes good money but not enough to make a difference other family member an accountant that is democrat tried to tell her but she won't listen.

At this point I think its more peer pressure all the other managers at her job, boyfriend and friends are mostly republicans.

Drastically change depending on who is being asked, is the whole story here.

The answers aren't "so bleedin' obvious." Reality tells us that and perception is reality.
