Why Are Conservatives So Mean?

@djjd62,

GWOT is being fought on many fronts, Iraq and Afghanistan are just two battle fronts.
BTW, Bush and McCain had already suggested an AFG surge before the election

You said "liberals would like to try and open dialogue, perhaps reason with their enemies"

I'm saying that Obama fails to recognize that these Muslim terrorists can not be reasoned with.

So it seems you feel there is such a wide disparity in views that there is no common ground for negotiations or compromise.

That is troubling. It also makes both sides wrong.

Do you agree with that assessment?

@Yankee,

both sides are wrong, an ideology will never be perfectly correct, and it will always divide

that's why i refuse to align myself with any particular party

nihilism might be the perfect ideology, nothing really matters, and so what if it did

I disagree.

WOW. Apparently you have low opinions of anyone who has a different point of view from you.

On the contrary. Some of my best friends are conservatives.

Yankee wrote:

Would that make you a narrow minded individual?

Not at all. I am remarkably broad-minded.

Yankee wrote:

Can we assume you are a "liberal" but have eliminated the "sensitivity training" from your teachings?

You may assume anything you like. In this case, however, your assumption would be wrong.

I have heard that phrase before and usually it supports the initial observation.

We do not have a democracy,
so it cannot be destroyed.
Under our democratic republic,
the majority is not supposed to be able
to vote itself the property, nor other rights, of the minority.

This is just priceless. On the video, Andrew Klavan (brother of Cliff?), addressing recent college grads, says:

@H2O MAN,

Hate to tell you "man", but the US has been in a "world of hurt" for a long time.

http://www.npr.org/2011/01/17/132942244/ikes-warning-of-military-expansion-50-years-later

"On Jan. 17, 1961, President Dwight Eisenhower gave the nation a dire warning about what he described as a threat to democratic government. He called it the military-industrial complex, a formidable union of defense contractors and the armed forces."

Or we could go back to the Great Depression where business owners had the country over a barrel in a very similar situation to right now. This recession is the rich trying to stay that way at everyone elses expense. I welcome freedom and hard work, but commerce has worked hard at making this country less free by locking us into a situation where we rely on jobs rather than our own ingenuity. Small businesses cannot flourish because the monopolies are in charge...not the government.

In the future, instead of throw insults and accusations about "Obama slaves", "abandoned free choice", blah, blah...please, back it up with specific examples that really make sense instead of using innuendo and embarrassment techniques. If you really had an argument it should be easy to back up... I've seen some good discussion on this page, but not from your posts for some reason.

The reason is very simple. Waterman is only interested in bringing Obama down through any means because he is black even if it means destroying our nation. Its the ultraconserative mantra. Their politicians state thier intentions in every speech they give. The fact that he is more conserative than liberal dosent make one bit of differance to them because he is black.
