From Obama's 1st SOTU, Repubs proved they were willing to express their disrespect ("You lie!") [View all]

They've not only continued that disrespect, they've shown that it goes beyond partisanship to full-blown racism. Some of their statements and actions even border on sedition.

Just imagine what kind of slander, slurs, and manifest hostility those misogynists will display for a female POTUS. Especially if Hillary Clinton, who they already show no respect, is that woman.

It used to be one only heard the term "Ugly American" with respect to our actions abroad (often about tourists). The past decade, that epithet is indicitive of a whole party here ar home.

If they're representative of a Christian nation, no wonder more are turning from religion.
