Do not ever make the mistake of thinking that the Republicans are anything but the enemy.

I want to reiterate quotes I've found here that express my disgust with the GOP:

Republicans serve The Beast.

From the dawn of mankind they are the regressive element that's been holding back and destroying our civilization. They nourish other-dimensional entities that feed on misery, pain, and chaos.

Republicans are their minions, and hope to share in these entities' power, or be spared the pain.

But The Beast never shares; The Beast never spares.

And this one:

The single largest defect of modern conservatism is that it has ruined the nation. Conservatives do not have ideas; they have interests.

Conservatives are not “thinkers”; they are rationalizers who give an intellectual gloss to their belief that an alliance of predatory businesspeople and religious extremists should rule the rest of us.

The wreckage caused by modern conservatism lies all around us, and speaks for itself: If conservatism isn’t dead, it should be.

I used to not feel this way, and at times I want to go back to how I once felt. That we are all working imperfectly, to get to a sense of oneness, creating something better, clumsily and crudely. I keep trying to tell myself this and look at all the angles because there is good and bad in everything and everyone. But at times, I just can't be that person.
