34. IT likely lives in the soul-sick Republican "Homeland" -- the Home of the Fearful and Hateful

while the rest of us live in America.

The Americans will have fun with their neighbors children (of all colors, creeds, and personalities) and reward them with smiles and treats.

It is so sorryass pathetic that people with Republican "values" will be cringing in fear in their basements -- attempting in vain to escape the Inner Daemons (R) that they carry everywhere with them.
