Sometimes it's difficult to gain an exact definition of a group of
individuals but in scouring the Web I have found quite a host of
definitions of Republicans and they are presented below.

Soon, I will also post the myriad of definitions attributed to those
who call themselves Democrats.

Whether or not this will clear the air or change anyone's opinion is
best left to the spin doctors. For now, let the people speak.

WHAT EXACTLY IS A REPUBLICAN?????

+++An individual who believes that the white male Christian God should
be the only object of worship on the planet, that power and wealth
should remain in the hands of 1% of the world's population while the
remaining 99% starve, that health care should be privatized so the
poor can't afford basic medication, that a rape victim living on
welfare should be forced to care for a baby she didn't even ask for,
and that America is the only real country on Earth while all those
other countries they read about are just fakes invented by communists.

+++Someone who supports the rights of the unborn, but won't fund stem
cell research that could help the millions who are already here. The
first one to protest abortion rights, and the first one willing to
take a life through capital punishment. Someone who espouses personal
freedom, and then tries to pass constitutional amendments to restrict
it. Someone threatened by government surplus but unfazed by goverment
deficits. Someone who is pro-business but anti-citizen. Someone who
wants to take away the helping hand, after he's made it to safety.
Someone who holds a cross in one hand and tries to burn it with the
other.

+++Member of the United States' Republican Party, first emerging in
the mid 1800s as an anti-slavery movement. Success of candidate
Abraham Lincoln in the Presidential election of 1860 sparked the
American Civil War. The party has since moved on to other issues.
Republicans today are characterized by typically right-wing,
conservative beliefs including but by no means limited to pro-business
policies, lack of dependence on the government in daily life,
religious convictions, and desire to outlaw what they deem socially
undesirable actions.

+++Typically a person who believes that: (1)The 2nd Amendment of the
Constitution takes precidence over the rest of the Constitution.
(2)The rich should be tax-exempt, and that the middle and lower
classes should have to foot the bill, also, a person who bitches when
an under-funded government agency is unable to carry out its assigned
task. (3)Thinks that programs such as welfare, medicare/medicaid and
minimum wage are unconstitutional and should be banned. (4)Labels
everything and everyone they disagree with as being "Communist" or
"Anti-American" or "French."

Often-heard quote, "I'm filthy-stinking rich! How dare you expect me
to pay taxes!"

+++A group of bible thumping morons who believe that white Christian
males are the only things that matter in the world. A racist white
male. They will lie and cheat in order to get what they want. They are
always racist and blame everything on the democratic leaders who were
in office before, and then claim responsibility for every good thing
that happens.

+++A collection of low life, lying, four flushing sacks of wind and
bull*** who have little regard for their fellow human beings. People
who think that George W. Bush is the second coming or some other damn
thing and that anyone who so much as looks at Bush funny is a traitor
or terrorist sympathizer. People who have their noses so up in the air
that they cannot see the disgust and contempt others have for them.
War mongering pigs who want us to go into a bottomless pit for their
dreams of military conquest, but their God forbid that money is given
so that lower classes actually get ahead in life or have access to
decent medical care. A collection of fascist thugs who think that
George W. Bush should be allowed to piss and *** all over the
Constitution and the Bill of Rights

+++Puppets for the rich.

+++A narcissistic American citizen who hates the poor and the less
fortunate for the discomfort he feels when he witnesses their misery.
He relieves his anxiety by lashing out at them in a primal fashion and
bonds only with others whom he deems worthy and who uplift their sorry
self-images by further degrading the disadvantaged. Republicans are
most often ignorant and poorly informed because they lack the humility
necessary for true learning. If the apostle Luke was alive today he
wouldn't have been a Republican because he said "Whoever has two
cloaks should share with the person who has none."

+++A person of American origin who obstensibly votes for a certain
political party called Republicans. There are in fact three
distinctive types of Republicans: (1) those who call themselves
fiscal conservatives and focus primarily on promoting free enterprise,
lowering of federal and state taxes, and cutting government
regulations to allow the market more leeway; (2) those who call
themselves social conservatives, who focus on promoting religious
orthodoxy in both a social and political environs, the curtailing of
'permissive' acts of sexuality, and generally promoting the vague
standard of 'family values'; (3) serious evil beings who take both
aspects of <1> and <2> to extreme levels, who have no tolerance for
others of dissenting opinions, who declare everyone and their parents
'traitors' at the slightest provocation, and are more than enjoying
themselves with the thought of dragging the entire planet into Hell.

On no account should you allow a Type-3 Republican to read 'Weekly
Standard' to you. Not because anything he says will convince you but
because he'll start foaming at the mouth and you'll have to clean up
the mess.

+++Someone who has been beaten down and abused for so long that he
begins to believe that he deserves no help from his fellow man.
Someone living a hard life who has been fooled into thinking that it's
an honest, noble living. Someone who doesn't care that under
Democratic presidents, he has more money in his pocket and his kids
can eat, because he likes suffering.

+++The greedy bastards who take advantage of the uneducated by
providing them with no education and then using their stupidity
against them.

+++Middle class white men who pretend that they benefit from
republican policies even when said policies are doing a back door
number on them.

+++One who claims to be pro-life, protecting the unborn fetus while
killing animals, the environment and sending people to Iraq in an
unjustified war.

+++Ignorant people, who like sending other people's kids to be shot to
pieces so their shares in oil-companies will give them a comfortable
retirement, in the few years before they burn in hell for eternity.

+++Republicans say the poor and the disabled only cost them money, so
they want to have them killed in the line of 'patriotic duty', instead
of their own whoring, drunk, trustfund offspring.

+++The party in which the wealth exceeds the IQ 1000 to 1.

+++An American incapable of understanding or speaking the truth. A
person uniquely deserving to feel pain and humiliation.

+++The political party of the ignorant, degenerate, and irrational
thinking class of Americans that believe in getting away with
corporate fraud and reward for unethical and inconsiderate behavior.

+++A suburbanite who is scared of change and sacrifice for a better
world

+++A Republican believes that...

*Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary
Clinton.

*Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's
daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him,
and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.

*Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is Communist, but trade
with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.

*The United States should get out of the United Nations, and our
highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against Iraq.

*A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-
national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without
regulation.

*The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in
speeches, while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.

*If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.

*A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies,
then demand their cooperation and money.

*Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy, but providing
health care to all Americans is socialism.

*HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests of the public at
heart.

*Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but
creationism should be taught in schools.

*A president lying about an extramarital affair is a impeachable
offense, but a president lying to enlist support for a war in which
thousands die is solid defense policy.

*Government should limit itself to the powers named in the
Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the
Internet.

*The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but
George Bush's driving record is none of our business.

*Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a
conservative radio host. Then it's an illness and you need our prayers
for your recovery.

*What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but
what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.

+++An intolerant, unimaginative, hypocritical, fundamentalist-
Christian, and close-minded individual.

+++A party that fights for a broader gap between the classes,
oppression, fascism, gay execution ala radio commentator whose name I
wont mention, and is generally a very mean grumpy assinine party

+++An ancient member of the biological order Primates. This species of
ancient primates have the intelligence level of a bar of soap.
Following their leader, George W. Bush ( Republicana Bushata ), they
have single-handedly gained control of the most powerful country in
the world, and have made everyone else their enemy. They do not
approve of anybody who do not believe in the same religion as them. It
took them a lot of very sneaky and hard work, but they were able to
cheat people and rig elections in such a way that got them to the top
fo the government. They single-handedly destroyed the definition of a
Democracy. The PATRIOT Act violates EVERYONE's rights. They are also
too busy killing many Iraqi and other middle-eastern people who they
believe are terrorists only because they are Islamic. "Lower taxes" is
a common cry of the wild Republican primate. This translates into
English as "Allow me to raise the country debt a couple trillion
dollars more!"

+++An uptight, brainwashed individual. Usually a racist. Drug of
choice = War.

+++You might be a Republican if you think 'proletariat' is a type of
cheese.

+++Someone who has difficulty distinguishing between social and
economic ideas. They tend to believe that by allowing "economic
freedom" they are promoting democracy and liberty, and that the
economic control hurts them greatly. At the same time, they are quick
to eliminate freedom that really does affect people's well-being.

+++A person who is more concerned with comforting themselves than the
truth (i.e. Rush limbaugh---actual drug addict).

+++Someone who strongly opposes abortion because they believe in human
rights, but are firm advocates for the death penalty. Someone who
hates gay peole, but will have a gay son/ daughter.

+++An American citizen who provides scientific evidence that American
Indians had sexual intercourse with buffalo during the middle to late
19th Century. .

+++Unintelligent, inbred hicks who think that screwing over working
men and women with tax breaks for corporations and the rich actually
helps them, that there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and
that George W. Bush is a patriot despite the fact that during Vietnam
he dodged the draft by getting into a National Guard unit from which
he promptly went AWOL.

+++The first thing a Republican girl says after having sex for the
first time is: "git off me pa, yor crushin' mah cigretts!"

+++The American political party that protects the interests of the
very wealthy and corporations by lowering their tax and regulatory
burden, and making it easier for businesses to get cheap labor and
cheap natural resources both at home and abroad.

+++Since the natural constituency for this agenda is very small, the
party panders to religious zealots, racists, and the marginally
retarded. Fortunately for the Republicans, the issues that activate
this base usually cost nothing and have almost no overlap with their
actual economic agenda.

+++A person who answers to their hivemind who presides in the capital
building (*** Cheney). Bush Does not qualify for hivemind because by
definition he has NO mind and there-for cannot qualify to be a
hiveMIND.

+++A man of decent, wholesome traditional values that involves him
spitting on the poor, protecting the sanctity of marriage by using gay
chat sites and engaging in bestiality, keeping government out of the
lives of ordinary Americans by racking up the largest spending bills
in the nation's history, protecting the people from the terrorists by
blurring the lines between church and state and securing America's
proud traditions by defecating on the constitution. Examples of good
Republicans = Neal Horsley, Ted Haggard, Timothy McVeigh, Eric
Rudolph, Mark Foley and Satan.

+++An evil, self-centered, homophobic, criminal, greedy, tyrannical,
un-educated, red state, dumb-ass, NASCAR-watching, backward-ass,
Christian, redneck, hypocritical fear-monger that opposes abortion,
stem-cell research, gay rights, evolution, and basic human logic,
while cheering loudly over war of all kinds, thriving on torture,
stripping populations of civil rights, practicing closeted gay sex
with adolescents, and making policy decisions based solely on profit
and and greed and wrapping it all in a cloak of "morality" and "family
values."

+++One who is privileged enough to have inherited a lum of cash from
their parents, that they need not worry about very real, very urgent
social and monetary problems of others.
