"The problem with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so." lol

Like regan, all people start out liberal. Then, because of a series shocks and upsets, some of them resign and convert to republicanism. Interesting speech.

Liberalism is a gread idea. Just like Jesus and the tooth fairy.

Interesting, how things have reversed: under clinton, the deficit was reduced. Under bush, spending went nuts and govt powers within the country advanced. His was a socialism, not for the common man, but for the corps. The bailouts finally showed this in an undeniable reality, for all to see.

satanus, :Like regan, all people start out liberal. Then, because of a series shocks and upsets, some of them resign and convert to republicanism. Republican is nothing more than a Democrat who has been mugged and the mugger was sent to sensitivity training. Farkel

"A conservative is just a liberal who has been mugged by reality" - that's quote from the father of neoconservatism Irving Kristol. We tried neoconservatism the last few years, remember? Look where that got us.

The term "liberal" has become a straw man. It is used frequently by Rush and his buddies at Fox News to drum up fear and hatred. Most Americans are too worried about keeping their jobs and houses to worry about the scary liberals with pitchforks that Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck swear are just around the corner.

Republicans are as bad as the WBTS.

You'd rather socialist? Or communist?

PS: Same old trap old trap old trap. A great man who happened to be a republican.

Communist? Socialist? Two more straw man labels. There is nothing socialist or communist about any proposals on the table by the Obama administration. Need proof? Study our nations history. Were the measures enacted by FDR socialism? The real goal of the right wing claim that Democrats are trying to socialize the government is to dredge up impressions of the Soviet Union and red communism. It is fear mongering at it's worst! It also sidesteps the fact that the Bush administration presided over one of the greatest periods of government expansion in U.S. history, capped off with a 1 trillion dollar handout to the Republican favored financial industry.Was that socialism?

Now that Pres.Obama and the Democrats want to extend the same amount of money in a bailout for the people, Republicans are suddenly concerned that our government might be entering the realm of Joseph Stalin.

Straw man, straw man, straw man.

Nice try though.

A great Republican
