It's like the Germans Pre- WW2 . They didn't all of a sudden take away the Jews freedoms or rights, it was slowly taken away bit by bit until it was too late to notice that there was a bigger plan .
Keep it up and soon we will be like China, your heroes .

It has been my experience that Liberals do not understand too much.



You have to actually get them to think, which in my view is darn near impossible. You have to appeal to their emotions, regardless of the facts. That is hard to do sometimes, because common sense often does not have any emotional attributes. It just is was it is. Hard to accept for a Liberal!

Nope, that's not true. It was only in the later half of the 20th century, when we expanded the size of our government, that we became a world superpower.



Do you conservatives realize that your definiton of "freedom" these days is ridiculous? I heard one guy talking about how the government shouldn't have public universities because it will infringe on people's freedom to not go to school... huh?

What's with you guys, with out the Federal Government we would be a third world country. Is that what you really want?



Look at the world and see what countries have the best Freedoms, more money, etc.... There is not one state that doesn't get Federal money that gives it back to the citizens.

Let me make this clear, are the liberals are the ones who expanded the government by starting a war based on lies that costs 4,000 American soldiers' lives, illegal survelliance of American citizen, outed a government agent, harassed people who dissented and used various religious fronts to ridicule science and women's rights to their body?



Did the conservatives lost any of their high powered guns, forced not to worship or listen to Rush Limbaugh?



Summary: you are not persecuted, just like the Jews did not persecuted the Nazis.

Hitler was originally an elected official and ran under the promise of law and order. The federal government has expanded under Reagan and the Bush progroms more than it ever did under Clinton. You might be more effective if you stopped using labels like liberals, because you don't know what the word means.

They think in terms of freedom coming from the government instead, in the form of free stuff. More government, more freedom.

Freedom isn't important to them as long as their checks in the mail

First, government doesn't have measurable size... leave the sloppy language to the AM radio hosts. Second, get rid of government completely if you want ultimate freedom. Enjoy!

GWBush obviously didn't understand that when he doubled the national debt to $11 Trillion.

B-S. We understand that without government the scaggs in business ---and elsewhere--will take advantage of our fellow citizens. Business is wonderful, when there is some oversight!

No. They haven't read the 5000 Year Leap.

To be a LIBERAL today, you have to believe:



That the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of funding rather then a lack of morality.



That trial lawyers are selfless heroes, but doctors are overpaid.



That global temperatures are affected more by Yuppies driving SUVs than by cyclical, documented changes in the brilliance of the sun.



That guns in the hands of the law abiding Americans are more of a threat than nuclear weapons in the hands of the Red Chinese.



That businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity.



That self-esteem is more important than doing anything to earn it.



That there was no art before federal funding.



That the NRA is bad, because it stands up for certain parts of the constitution, but the ACLU is good, because it stands up for certain parts of the Constitution.



That taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.



That the most troubling thing you can find in a public school is a child praying.



That standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas aren't.



That any change in the weather is proof of global warming.



That national wealth is determined by what we consume, not by what we produce.



That the only wars in which America should become involved, are those in which our national security is not at risk.



That perjury and obstruction of justice are impeachable if a Republican, like Richard Nixon, commits them, but harmless, private matters if a Democrat like Bill Clinton commits them.



That we can have a strong military without spending money on it.



That the way to improve public schools is to give more money and power to people who have misused it in the past.



That a mother can be trusted to decide whether to terminate the life of her baby, but cannot be trusted to choose her child's school.



That hunters and fishermen don't care about nature, but pasty-faced activists, who rarely leave the Upper West Side of Manhattan, do.



That a bureaucrat living in Washington can make better decisions about how to spend your money than you can.



That Hillary Clinton is a wonderful example for young women of feminist independence, even though almost everything she's gotten in life is a result of her marriage to Bill Clinton.



That being a movie star makes you qualified to speak out on public policy.



That a handful of religious wackos, living in rural Texas, are more of a threat to public safety than terrorists who plant bombs in major cities.



That cigarette and liquor advertising must be banned because it causes kids to smoke and drink, but we don't need to worry about adultery, promiscuity, and violence in television programming because kids aren't affect by what happens between the commercials.



That passing new laws is a better way to prevent crime than enforcing existing ones.



That the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it has been tried is because liberals like you haven't been in charge.
