In reply to the discussion: Stop the GOP [View all]baldguy
(36,649 posts)14. The GOP is light-years worse than the Democrats, on any & every issue you can think of.
There's absolutely no comparison between the two parties, at any level.
That's why I'm always suspicious of anyone running down good, hard-working Democrats, with spurious and specious claims that they're exactly the same as the GOP, and instead advocating support for some pie-in-the-sky 3rd party troll with no chance of winning - especially when they boast of their supposed "progressive" credentials with an arrogant, more-liberal-than-thou attitude, especially with less than three weeks before an election!

Don't get angry, VOTE! Stop the GOP or live with their politics of fear and stupidity.

I totally agree with your post and I'd like to add one more John Lewis quote if you don't mind.
