Many republicans are not Christians. Those photos and captions are nothing but propaganda.

@GunSmoke9: But you must admit that the "evangelicals" support the agenda of the Republican party. Anti-abortion. So called "religious freedom" that actually is designed to allow anyone to discriminate against anyone who views differ from their own. No compassion for the poor. No mass transit. No universal health care. No free college education. Their motto seems to be, "I've got mine, screw you!"

@kaf9292: And the liberals twist the teachings of Christ to advance their anti-Christian agenda.

@hippyjoe1955: How so? Who wants massive tax cuts for the wealthy? Who favors slashing Medicare? Liberals prefer to apply the teachings of Jesus rather than advance a selfish culture of greed that has led to massive inequalities.

@kaf9292: From my experience a tax cut to everyone increases the government revenue while increasing taxes results in higher public debt. Just the way things work. It is said the republicans love the rich so they want everyone to be rich. The democrats love the poor so much they work hard to make everyone poor.

@kaf9292: I don't agree with that at all. Who is against mass transit? Free healthcare, free college? Those things don't exist.

@GunSmoke9: Somebody has to pay for all the free stuff which is a double disincentive to earn money. Those who get the 'free' stuff don't have to earn any money and those that have to pay for the 'free' stuff simply stop working so hard. Why would you work 80 hours a week if you only get to keep 20 hours a week of your earning when if you work 40 hours a week you get to keep 25 hours?
