A member of the political party responsible for the emancipation of black slaves in the early 1860's, and passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1957 granting black people the equal right to voting access. Despite this, and the fact that the Democratic party opposed both emancipation, the Civil Rights Act of 1957, and the more broad-sweeping Civil Rights Act of 1964, all Republicans are, in fact, racist. Despite a 150 year history of opposing equal rights for black people and supporting slavery, all Democrats are, in fact, not racist. An example of a racist Republican might be George W. Bush (it is well known that Bush "doesn't care about black people"), or Trent Lott, who thought that Strom Thurmond, a former Dixiecrat who opposed desegregation, would have made a good president. An example of a non-racist Democrat might be Senator Robert Byrd, a former Ku Klux Klan member, or the original racist Republican himself: Strom Thurmond, who was a Democrat until 1964.

Get the Banana republicanmug. Theoretically, no gay Republican politicians exist because the GOP is a pro-"family values", christianist party which despises LGBT people.
In reality, about 45.3412% of male Republican politicians (and climbing) rilly want some of that viking love but act like homophobic dicks in public in a desperate attempt to hide their secret attractions. 'Til they get caught in a "compromising position", that is.

"_I am not gay!_" -- protest of self-identified not-gay gay Republican IN state senator Phil Hinkle, who attempted to have a business sexual relationship with a young man Hinkle contacted on craigslist. Hinkle was subsequently outed to his wife by the other man after Hinkle gave the man his smartphone in a state of panic. (2011)

Get the gay republicanmug. A slogan seen on t-shirts and bumper stickers. It was made by someone who was attempting to be clever, and failed epically in that attempt. It's only used by people whose knowledge of politics is so dismally lacking, that they must boil down the entire American political system into the basic Good vs. Evil of the Harry Potter books, and associate the bad guy with the political party that they've been told to hate, even though they don't actually know why they hate it.
Anyone who, (a) has read the Harry Potter books, (b) has at least an elementary knowledge of politics and history, and (c) has an IQ above room temperature, should be able to figure out that Rowling clearly based Voldemort and his Death Eaters on Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party. Both want a totalitarian government, both wish to oppress, persecute, and exterminate those that they see as being born genetically inferior based on the "purity" of their blood. They blame all of their problems on a certain group of people. They manipulate school curriculum in order to indoctrinate children against this group. The "pure blood" motif is also very similar to the outdated British Nobility system, of which the few that remain still cling to.

Even though you see "Republicans for Voldemort" crap everywhere, Voldemort really has nothing whatsoever to do with the Republican party of the U.S., or any other modern political party. If a comparison MUST be made, the Republicans are most like Scrimgeour: determined to protect us from terrorists, but perhaps a too heavy-handed with security. Meanwhile, Democrats are more like Fudge and Umbridge: in denial that such a big threat exists, over-regulating everything with too many rules, and dominating most media outlets.

Get the Republicans for Voldemortmug. Someone who thinks if all of their FB friends do not agree with all of their statuses, then they aren't real friends.
Girl: If you were a friend, then you would automatically be happy for me.
Guy: I didn't realize I had to be a Facebook Republican to comment on your status in disagreement.
Girl: I'm deleting you.
Guy: Oh. No. Please. Come back.
