Clapping and laughing signals your in agreement. Or are you from some alternate universe?

I don't think this has much to do with the political affiliation.
By and large conservative people are not any friendlier. Maybe some of them seem friendlier at first glance because they tend to be more religious and thus feel like they may not say certain things. But when the microphone is off, they are just as mean...

You had Ann Coulter on last week representing the crazy right. I do believe Bachman man is gay. HE gives me that vibe. He is so in denial (see Ted the Denver preacher) that he over does it.

How do you know this then?

And what makes you think that religion has anything to do with conservative principals and values? I'm not religious and most of the conservatives I know are not terribly religious either. Granted, there are some fundamental religious types among us but the left likes to pretend they represent ALL conservatives. They do not.

You seem to be rather ignorant of what conservatism is. Maybe do a little studying and stay off the far left websites.

When the liberals can't defend their own actions they try and spin it and make out conservatives to be racist and religious zealots. Never fails.

I'm in my 40s and have gotten to know both conservatives and liberals, as well as people between and beyond that. In my experience conservatives tend to seem a bit friendlier than they are and with liberals it is often the other way round. In other words, they are pretty much the same - on average, not to mention the countless exceptions on both sides.

When have you ever spoken out against any right-wing bias?

You just keep that in mind. I recall some real nasty stuff said by a "certain poster" regarding Michelle Obama. Not just one post, either.
