“Republicans Are People, Too.” Shouldn’t Be a Radical Message

◼ This is what we’ve come to: One of Mitt Romney’s former ad men has launched an entire campaign around the idea that “Republicans Are People, Too.” - Daily Signal

And, unsurprisingly, some liberals are amused.

MSNBC’s Steve Benen derided the message as “overly defensive” and wrote: “If you have to remind the public that Republicans ‘are people’ and ‘have emotions,’ then you’re implicitly suggesting that Republicans’ basic humanity is, at least for some, in doubt.”

Well…sometimes, yeah, it is in doubt.

Okay, sure, no one’s going around saying conservatives and Republicans aren’t human. But there’s often a host of negative assumptions and stereotyping, fueled by our liberal pop culture and mainstream media.

Doubt it? Read liberals’ own accounts...
