1. They always bellyache about too much government and want it off our backs, yet they're the first to try and ban gay marriages and outlaw abortion.

2. They claim to be good Christians who love Israel, but I wonder if they spend much time around synagogues.

3. Do they really love thy neighbors? I mean those that aren't white Anglo-Saxon protestants, or is that just a nice pitch they use?

4. If I'm not mistaken, the bible says, "Blessed are the poor, woe to the rich." It also states it's easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, yet conservatives are the first one giving tax cuts to the rich.

5. More lambasted the 99ers day in and day out for being lazy. Some have the gall to condemn poor folks collecting food stamps insinuating they're there by choice. For every penny they spend on social welfare, our government squanders $100 on corporate handouts. The amount of aid provided to the poor is infinitesimal compared to that which is given to the rich.

6. Many bemoan those horrible Mexican immigrants coming into our country, but I never hear them lament about jobs outsourced. I don't see any conservatives out there picking produce, digging ditches, paving roads, washing dishes, or any other labor intensive job for next to nothing.

7. To you conservatives who despise those illegals coming over, I have one query for you. What Indian tribes do you belong to? Don't tell me something like "Uh! Well, I think I may be part Cherokee." Do you live on an actual reservation?

They act is if they are more patriotic than everyone else yet they are the least willing to make sacrifices at home for the greater good of the country.

All Hat and no cattle......the republican way. Chicken-hawks.

I can never understand why liberals always post stuff like this. It just doesn't make any sense.

What badhornet said.

What you think you know about conservatives you learned on the P&OC Forum and you learned it from liberals. Not a good source of information.

The day isn't over yet, but thanks for trying to change the subject when I came in with all my ducks in a row. I just woke up because I work the overnight shift, but I'll get some sunshine soon enough.

Ah, yes you mean jingoists. In other words, solving the real problems in America isn't important. Neither is fighting the real terrorists who are those clowns on Wall Street trying to keep the wealth in the hands of few and make us a plutocracy, but the conservatives deem it wise to toot their horns worldwide about how fabulous we are. They blast the Europeans for all their social programs, but those countries don't have the income gap that we do. They also have better qualities of life.

Because we're right. It only doesn't make sense to those who lack the cognitive ability towards thinking outside the box.

All I know is most conservative voting areas in england are nice places to live.
Most Labour voting areas are dumps.

I understand things are more complicated in the US though.
