From Kent, a Republican caucusgoer in Nevada, explaining to Dave Weigel why he hates Democrats:

If you’re a Democrat, you are my enemy. Democrats piss me off. They’ve gotten extremely socialistic. Every time they get in, they raise taxes. They screw things up. I’ve got a jeep I’ve had for ten years; I pay $100 a year on the license plate. We just got a new Dodge; $600 to license it. You pay your money, they pass it on to the Mexicans, the colored people. Free education, handouts, all of that.

So there you go.

Fact:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and billionaires wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.
