text: are republicans really the racist party? i had a client last week to whom i was telling that i had a guy doing my house top to bottom.  she expressed some interest in maybe having him do some work for her.  mind you, she is a gay woman who is extremely liberal.  the first question she asked me was:  "what is his ethnicity?"  when i told her, she lost interest.  who is the racist here? interesting question. republicans, in principle cherish small government and the freedom to expand economic activity.they will respect the citizen who is contributing to the economy, no matter what race he or she belongs to. democrats cherish big government and the idea of creating and maintaing a population dependent on the government. in different ways, both republicans and democrats can be seen as racists. there is another group much more dangerous than racists; the liberals. they discriminate against their own country
