I bowl overhand
Been thinking about this one for awhile, and I keep coming back to: My liberal friends are all pretty smart, so what gives?

Then I start thinking about all the Liberals in the news lately.. Sandy Hook, Aurora, Gabbie Giffords shooter.. They were all liberal, all sociopaths, all pyschotic..

So maybe there is a connection there. MAYBE, just maybe, liberals don't really believe the things they support, but maybe they're just sociopathic enough to want the opposite of what we want.. Doesn't matter what, they're going to want to oppose us.

I mean everything they support that hurts us, hurts them as well, so any sane person would ask WHY do you want to, and like to hurt yourself? We use facts to support our arguments, and the dems just say, Facts? Don't care. We're going to elect O'Malley becaue the Republicans don't like him.. LET him raise our taxes too, who cares as long as it pisses off the Republican living across the street..

Gun Control?? Republicans like guns so we can't!! Yeah, I know, I'm endangering myself, my family, my kids and everyone else's kids but you know what? What are the lives of a few kids if I can piss of the Republican across the street?

Is there ONE thing.. JUST one, that the liberals would be willing to say.. "You know what? Your argument makes sense. I agree with you, and we should stand together for the American People!"

I just don't think they are capable.

Liberals know how to work people and the system. The ones in power know people are essentially lazy. They cater to that with their promises of entitlement, hence, they get the votes to put idiots like obamy and Owemalley in office. Once they get them in office, they have the power to implement their agenda, i.e. gun control, gay marriage, amnesty for illegals, etc. They use taxes however they please because the majority (not the working taxpayer) will vote for them again because they are still getting their free stuff. And when they run out of our tax money, they just up taxes, implement gun control to gather more money labeled "fees" or just put another gas tax in place. They have got it made. We, the conservative, working taxpayer, are screwed.

So, you have been thinking about this for a while ?? It would have taken my child less then 30 seconds to say something only half as stupid.

Power with Control
Is it the fact that they have been told only intelligent people think like a liberal, and they are so attached to the self image of themselves as intelligent that they cannot apply intelligent critical thought to the sacred cows?

That would explain why they generally think of people who believe in conservative values (the whole gamut, I know very few conservatives who agree on all points) as lacking in intelligence?

Most liberals are not stupid; they are simply emotion-based as opposed to logic-based. They want what feels good, not what makes sense.

The ones that think all Republicans are evil baby-eaters are a different breed - they are stupid and insane, brainwashed morons.

The problem is that the primary voters, on both sides, are the most extreme. If you venture outside of this forum and listen to actual liberals, you'd find there is a lot of dissatisfaction with Obama. That doesn't mean that those moderate Democrats are going to vote for someone they disagree with fundamentally on almost every issue.

I think you guys ignore when liberals do agree with conservatives. If you venture outside this forum and turn off FOX and MSNBC and listen to the Moderate Liberals, not the groupthink Facebook pages, you'd find a lot of liberals who said "you know, Wayne LaPierre is insane and I don't agree with him on guns but he's right about armed security in schools and he's right about a mental health registry".

As for who the candidates are - the bottom line is that the extremists (on both sides) are elected by the core base. A large section of this forum is part of the extreme RW base and would support someone like Allen West or Michele Bachmann over a Chris Christie or Marco Rubio. The liberal "base" would vote for a Martin O'Malley or a Barack Obama over a Corey Booker or Joe Manchin.

As for the "mass shooter" commentary, I haven't seen a thing about Adam Lanza's political beliefs. The person who targeted Giffords had quite a few far-right beliefs as well as some far-left beliefs. Holmes' beliefs were considered "middle of the road" and, IIRC, he wasn't registered to vote nor was he politically active.

But the "All Mass Shooters are Liberal Democrats" sure does look nice on a Facebook post.

I agree. It is a pretty silly assumption to make considering they were all so mentally unstable.

So none of them were TEA Party members??

So as far back as I can remember 2A rightds were generally one of the things both parties supported.. We had some weird abnormalities like NY and CA but at the Federal level, 2A was gospel.

As time went on, the democrats started to pick up the anti-2A flag even though it's a right spelled out in the constitution..

SO what is it? The democrats defying the constitution as way of bullying the country, telling the US.. LOOK what we can do!! WE'RE in charge.. or is it , THe Republicans support it, so we have to kill it!!

And as you've seen in MD there is absolutely NO compromise.. they want what they want, rights be damned.

Yet not one of them is disarming their security details, limiting the type of guns they can carry, not even limiting the size or number of magazines they carry. Another "Hey, WE'RE in charge, and we'll do what the hell we want!"

The only thing the democrats have done in the last 5 years is further divide this country.. Sociologicly and economically the divides haven't been greater since the Jim Crowe and racism days.

It's totally us against them, take no prisoners and accept NO compromise.

Sounds sociopathic to me.

On most issues, liberals characterize the issues of right vs. wrong. For example, if you SAY something that's just wrong to say, it's perfectly acceptable to shut you up, have you fired or close your place of work. For ideologues, there can be no middle ground between right and wrong. I've seen this - liberals crow about their ability to be "tolerant", but they have no concept of the word. "Tolerant" is not having a sympathetic ear to an unpopular issue - it's being PATIENT with that which you totally disagree with.

For conservatives - not necessarily Republicans - on most issues it's what going to work, and what won't. It often means they resist change to something that MIGHT work, but is as yet untried. Admittedly, on some issues, such as abortion, they're largely ensconced in the right or wrong territory, but on most things, conservatives take the stand of that doesn't work or something similar.

The only other approach I know of is on protecting liberty - in that respect, there's as much argument as what works and what doesn't. For example, conservatives largely support verifying voter's identification. Why? Because fraudulent voting is an abrogation of EVERYONE's right to vote. If people can cheat at the voting booth, YOUR vote is meaningless. Liberals object because they think it will infringe on more voters who will likely lose a chance to vote on the - in their opinion - unlikely chance that SOMEONE might cheat.

BOTH sides say the other side is a smoke screen - but it is the liberals who maintain their position on an emotional appeal of right and wrong, not on numbers and facts.

What is more noteworthy is that histories mass murderers were all for gun control. Hitler, Stalin, etc.

Liberals can NOT get around how un-liberal gun control is and how totalitarian it is. Gun rights advocates seek the right to keep and bear arms for ALL citizens. It is the greatest civil rights position one can have. Even the first amendment is, literally, just talk, absent the power to exercise ones rights. Absent the power to resist, all, ALL of our rights are mere privileges the holders of power grant and take away at their whim.

The issue is extreme leftys still think they are in the middle. Being a socialist is considered in the middle to them.
