GOP puts American values second

If Republicans are the party of country first, being American, patriotic and being a good Christian, how come they:

A) Give big businesses tax breaks, incentives to close up shop here in the USA, putting Americans out of work and opening shop in China, Mexico, India, etc.? Which country are the Republicans talking about? And how is this being patriotic and American?

B) Want to kill every bill from Democrats that could help the economy, country and people, because corporate America couldn't benefit.

C) Don't want to expand jobless benefits to the people who have lost jobs (apparently they don't deserve it) but give the wealthy tax breaks.

D) Allow a situation where 42 percent of homeless people are under 6 years old while corporate America continues to rake in their multimillion dollar salaries, multimillion dollar bonus checks and those golden-parachute retirement packages. That's the only thing that matters to the Republicans. How American, patriotic or even Christian is this?

E) Care only about corporate America, above the country, economy and people. To me, the stand of Republicans is more in line with terrorists bent on destroying the country, economy and people.

F) Talk about committing financial genocide, annihilation of the American people. This is what Republicans and corporate America are doing.
