When we liberals "crusade" for a cause it's something decent like civil rights, women's rights, etc.
When conservatives do it, it's out of ignorance and a backward mentality
Uh, that's rich. Conservatives were crusading for civil rights before liberals found it to be fashionable.
The reason conservatives were for civil rights is people like Charlton Heston (who actually marched in civil rights marches), because of the way in which the liberal backed, Democrat supported unions blatantly discriminated against Blacks.
Conservatives like Charlton Heston wanted to work with the the best, and it didn't matter what color the best was. But color did matter to the liberal Democrat unions who refused admission to Blacks.
From 1933 to 1979 -- 46 years -- the Democrats had majorities in the House & Senate simultaneous, except for a brief 2 year period during the Eisenhower Administration.
So spare us your platitudes.
Decently...

Oh, yes, Pukipedia, my favorite source of false and out-dated information and disinformation.
Disparaging...
I have never understood why conservatives try to push their beliefs on other people. If y'all don't like abortions, well then don't get an abortion. If you don't like homosexuality, don't be a homosexual. Why do you have to pretend to be little crussader knights for your social causes, attacking everyone who isn't like you??
Don't forget man-made global warming, PETA, gun control from lawful citizens . . . oh wait, nevermind, wrong group.

Republicans fought for civil rights. Dem lawmakers and the WH pay their women employees less than the men.
Why do posters throw out an accusation, then skedaddle to the hills when it is torn down? At least have the decency to stay and deflect, & madly sidestep the way the other lefty troll posters do. Even better, have the heart to admit you were wrong and apologize.

I've never understood why liberals try to push their beliefs on other people. If you think abortion is OK - don't be surprised when people who value life oppose you. If you think homosexuality is OK - fine - don't force your lifestyle or promote it on the rest of us - especially not our children. Why do you have to pretend to be little crusader knights - shoving your liberal social agenda down everybody's throat - and attacking people who understand right from wrong?
