Republicans on Board.


Republicans on Board.

I don’t like Republicans. I don’t agree with them. Must we co-exist? Sure. Do I have to pretend to like them? No, not at all. Why would I? It is that people that they keep electing that share their hate-mongering, racist, xenophobic, ideologies, that have institutional power that keep denying our people the ability to succeed (i.e the DREAM Act).

A few students from LSU are openly republican. They voted for McCain, are anti-choice, and believe in the two wars we are fighting. I don’t even want to know what they think about sexuality or immigration. Thus, why must I be forced to pretend that I like them? I know I don’t, and will never get along. My parents taught me better. They instilled in me open-minded qualities, but also made me realize that not everyone would ever agree with me. And I must be okay with that. They never said, I had to like or pretend that I do like them.
