I think you are conflating the opinion of a small minority of individuals with the position of a political party. Even if some of the politicians feel that way, it's not the literal position of the party. This type of broad brush attitude is part of the problem we are seeing with politics, today, where people readily ascribe certain positions or values to entire groups of people based on the actions of a few that they share some identifiable trait with.
