Just an observation about the difference between Conservatives and Liberals

Wait..., what? No!!!

Side Score: 7

So..., after last nights party (commemorating my 20,000 points on CD) and a nice, restful sleep, I woke up this morning and I said to myself, "Self..., what are you going to do today?" and I answered myself, "Same as I do everyday. Bash liberalism." ;)

BTW, I just want everyone to know that I'm not going to let this points thing go to my head and develop an inflated ego ;)

Sorry..., I wasn't able to say that with a straight face ;)

I've only wondered this now, but why does America not have an equivilant to the British "Labour Party"? That way the party leaders get to have a three-way every now and again.

Side: True

Your politicians get to engage in threesomes??? Cool!!!!! ;)

Both premises are complete bullish*t.

1. Conservatives are defenders of freedom?!

Social conservatives are authoritarians. They are anti-union freedoms, anti-marriage freedom, anti-gay rights, anti-secularism in the government, anti-abortion rights, pro-draft, anti-euthanasia, anti-stem cell research, anti-gay adoption, anti-gays serving openly in the military, pro-school prayers, anti-drug freedoms, anti-prostition, anti-pronography, often anti-freedom of choice, etc. etc.

On all of these positions, Conservatives are the enemies of freedom and liberals the defenders of it.[1]

2. Conservatives are more economically successful than liberals?!

a.) Blue states have MUCH higher average incomes than red states (in addition to higher average IQ's and education). [2]

b.) Conservative States are the parasites of America. They leech off of the federal money produced by the Liberal states. [3]

Complete and utter BS. The exact opposite is true.

HmmmmMaybe.

But red states have:

1. More guns

2. More ammo.

3. They shoot straighter.

4. They're quicker on the draw.

So there! I have more items on my list than you have on yours ;)

1. More guns

Probably. Which they use to shoot at pieces of paper at a range every now and then, and occasionally accidentally shoot themselves. About as useful as having more Star Wars collectibles but with more trips to the ER.

2. More ammo.

See above.

3. They shoot straighter.

Doubtful. Aren't crossed eyes a common symptom of incest?

4. They're quicker on the draw.

Those paper targets must be terribly frightened.

Side: True

I could see how conservatives might interpret fighting in an imperialistic war as "defending freedom," and in that regard conservatives sure do a lot of "defending." But in the more traditional sense of freedom, personal liberties and the like, conservatives actually fight against freedom tooth and nail. Liberal values are typically, well, liberal regarding personal freedom; conservatives, accordingly, are the opposite.

Side: Wait..., what? No!!!

How can you say that liberals fight for freedom when they are constantly fighting to enslave the rich? Just asking ;)

Side: Wait..., what? No!!!

While I'm not for higher taxes for large incomes, you can hardly refer to this as "enslavement."
