My step-dad hates my dad...?

Okay so I have no idea why he hates him, but it's really starting to piss me off. My mom cheated on my dad with my step-dad. My step-dad thinks he is so perfect (even though he's not because he knew my mom was married when he got involved with her). Well after my parents divorced, my dad was really hurt so he started drinking, and it kind of got to where he had to get help for it. When that happened, my step-dad had the nerve to say, "I can't stand him, he doesn't even deserve to be a father." My dad is sober now (has been for three years). I just don't understand because my dad is always so nice to him even after all of that stuff they put him through. My dad knows that my step-dad doesn't like him, so he tries talking it out with him because he doesn't want my step-dad and mom putting things into my head (which they're not because I will never forgive them for what they did), but my step-dad always gets hostile and starts cussing him out.

P.S. My mom doesn't even understand why he does this, but she never tells him to stop.

What should I or my dad do?

    oh that sucks. tight predicament...and totally unfair for you. hate when parents drag kids into their **** (happens to me too, man) i think you should outright tell your step-dad to **** off, if you can. no offense, but as the intruder, he's in no position to speak disrespectfully of your dad. i mean he has a say cuz he's married to your mom, but he isn't your biological father. and judging from that, your dad never quit acting as the fatherly figure anyway. but if the idea of confronting him is uncomfortable for you, talk to your mom. make her understand! cuz you know what, you can't blame her for screwing because mistakes happen, and whatever, that's ok. but simply for your sake, she's gotta let her husband know it's not cool. after all, they kinda owe you..... good luck!!!

    If you don't enjoy being with your step-dad and mother, can't you ask to live with your dad isn't of dealing with this constant bs? (Sorry I need to say bs)

    Why don't you live with your dad? He sounds like a very good parent. You shouldn't be subjected to that kind of childish hostility.
