Young Republicans resist racist fear-mongering candidate at national convention#1

Oh, of COURSE they didn't! They elected the "self-described 'true conservative' who is almost 40 (with) beliefs, which are, at best, often hateful, and at worst, downright racist."

And they did it in typical Republican style- including a delightful "Whisper campaign" smearing her competition with issues like these: "Rachel Hoff attempted to convince the YRNF in 2007 to adopt a stance IN FAVOR OF CIVIL UNIONS. Although Rachel was not wearing a dress like her female counterparts, but her typical suite (sic), her attempt was met with ridicule and frustration. It was overwhelmingly shot down and left the idea in many delegates minds of: Why would Rachel Hoff support Civil Unions?"

You can read it all below- it's a non stop laugh riot!

Well, once again, the far right wing of the GOP proves that they do not tolerate tolerance.

What, are all young Republicans just turning into a-holes?
It's funny to call Obama names!

if you're a republican, you're an a-hole, and d-bag, and t-waffle. It's part of the job.

I think, thought I'm not sure, it rhymes with squat.

"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert
