Vulture you do have a habit of labeling people. And isn't that at the heart of racisim. It starts with "people from ...........", or your favorite phrase, "people like you". You separate yourself from certain groups because of their supposed stereotypes. Did you guys see Chris Mathews and Eugene Robinson? Calling the Republicans racist for talking about Chicago politics. They actually said that the word "Chicago" was code. These idiots would label a door racist if it was to white for them. Liberals always claim that conservatives do the stuff that they really do.
Im not labeling, Im making what I consider to be an observation of people based on what I see in the media. Ther are being labeled long before they are seen by me. You are free to your opinion about liberals or conservatives or whatever as I dont see myself as either. I do know that when the decisions of a woman's womb or a voter ID card mean more to a voter than the economy, the military, ect. I take issue with that voters ability to see through the forest for the trees. If thats insulting their intelligence, so be it.

So, since other label them first, it is ok to label them? Frankly, it sounds like you are trying very hard to justify your feelings that everyone would have your values if they were smarter or weren't so misguided. And again, I ask, why are these specific groups the ones who don't have good reasons to dislike policies?
Gimme started a break Than. Ive started alot of these threads and if anyone has been attacked of late, or alweays on here, its anyone who doesnt buy into the right win b.s. You or anyone can have any d@mn values you want, it doesnt mean that I have to agree or even grant them any value. I have said nothing about anyone specifically and am just as entitled to my opinion as you are yours. If my comments about closed minded ring wing whack job hits a nerve with you, tough $hit. Just am Im sure you and the others dont give a rats @ss about offending anyone else wuth your jabs at anyone left of your preceived center. I have a big fuc*king interest in these debates, but Im sorry when I find the values you speak of to be such an anthesis of any logic or rational though its kind of hard for me to sit by and say "yes, you re all correct". Same goes for the Jesus thread. I love the topic, but just as I dont expect to change anyones beliefs, its kinda hard for me to accept that a book written thousands of years ago about a guy who walked on water and rose from the dead is the same factually as reading an encyclopedia.
While I dont agree about 99% of liberals Snake, I do agree with alot of what you said. I honestly believe the left is more willing to discuss ideas, even if opinions wont change. A problem for the right with me is often the religion intersecting the politics which means someone cant bend or compromise on politics without viooating religion----which is a sin. Leaves us in quite a quagmire and I think this may be what infuriates the left more than alot of other things.
What? Why are you so sure I am attacking you personally that you ignore my whole post to make a dig at me? That is a general "you", as in all ya'll that go straight to personal insults look like pr1cks, not a singular you. If you are always looking for the worst, you will usually find it.
