Id like to break this down to its root and really explore this "everything" that liberals accuse republicans of but also do themselves
Please name for me a liberal:
KKK member
wall street CEO
Westboro Baptist congregant
Abortion clinic bomber
I mean, lets face it. If someone does something racially insane, they are on the far right of their religion and politics (aka... not liberal). So i think your definition of "everything" must be different from mine.
Love yooooooouuuu
Wall Street CEO:
Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman Sachs (GS). Ideology score: 4.9L. That’s right, the Wall Street banker who runs a firm vilified as the “great vampire squid” has liberal leanings. But he doesn’t lean as far left as he used to. Since 2008, Blankfein has donated to both Republicans (Sen. Rob Portman, Sen. Richard Shelby, former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor) and Democrats (Sen. Gary Peters, Rep. Greg Meeks). But Blankfein was more consistently Democratic before the financial crisis, giving to big names such as Hillary Clinton (then a New York senator), Sen. Charles Schumer of New York and former Sen. Chris Dodd of Connecticut. Blankfein’s biggest check, $28,500, went to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee in 2007—a pre-crisis year that may have represented peak bonhomie between Democrats and Wall Street. His donations to both parties have shrunk considerably since then.
KKK:
Robert Carlyle Byrd.
