A member of the more conservative of the two main political parties of the United States. Typically don't believe that the government should provide everything for them. They can understand the difference between murdering an unborn child and executing a convicted murderer as a form of punishment. Also don't believe in electing a president based on their skin color rather than their qualifications. However they can unfortunately rival democrats in their ability to f*#k up this nation.
Ben voted Republican in the 2008 election.

Republican according to Democrats:
1) always rich and has a hatred for people who aren't
2) always white and racist
3) loves war and is looking to start one
4) for some reason doesn't like abortions (they must be evil)
Republican according to Republicans:
1) people should work hard if they expect to earn money instead of looking to others for money (maybe many rich people are republican because of their work ethic?)
2) the party was started on the basis of abolishing slavery, Southern Democrats were the ones against it
3) of all the wars in America's history, the Civil War, World War I, World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War were all started by Democrats. The Gulf War and the current war are the only ones started by Republicans.
4) are confused by how most liberals are fine with killing 9 month old fetuses but not with killing terrorists or murderers
I went on urban dictionary and learned how Republicans are apparently spawned by Satan
