And how funny it is that people only exposed to Muslim beliefs tend to be Muslim. Academia is predominantly liberal and their curriculum is as well. These ultra educated liberal graduates are a product of the system and their environments. Nothing more. Just like my friend that went to Texas A&M, they tend to be more traditional and conservative. Same as with Hillsdale College I'm sure.
Oh and to add to the greatness of liberalism and how well it is working in England (Correction the UK).....england is at FORTY. They are going to be taxing people making over 150,000 pounds at a rate of FIFTY PERCENT.... That would be 217,000 US. MMMM mmmm mmmm! Gotta LUUUUUUUUV that liberalism.

Just wondering why you say "they are going to be taxing people" and your link says "proposing" ? Do those two things mean the same thing to you?
I'm just sick and tired of this worn out talking point, about how CA. is such a failure because of democrats (republican governor though) and liberalism. Ok even if that is true, well, don't forget that the New England states are doing, in an overall sense, well.
Lowest divorce rates are in New England, most colleges per square area are in New England. 2 of the states with the highest income rates (top 5) are CT and MA. Has (along with the upper midwest states) some of the lowest drop out rates in the US and 4 out of the 6 states in NE are in the bottom 5 in % of adults who are obese. Crime rates are along the lowest in the country (the lowest in you define regions in a certain way, with the possible expection of the North Central States). As of 12/08, unemployment was below the national average in the region, the only bad number coming from Rhode Island.
I was just blown away by how Bush defenders in the 2004 elections, tried to attack Kerry as being a liberal from Massachusetts. Well, so what? A liberal from Mass. vs. a cowboy from TX. The social ills stats for Texas (for stuff like crime and uninsured people) are usually in the higher range (top 10) of the 50 states.
Point being: Even though CA is having it's problems with liberalism (it's not my opinion, but let's just say it may be true), well, don't forget, that liberal policies and democratic representation (solidly ayway) work well in the New England States.
From what I hear Hartford and New Haven are dumps. It's only a matter of time before it starts spilling over into the suburbs and affects the whole state of Connecticut. The "do gooders" up there won't be able to hide forever.

Sorry about that. No I dont believe that they have the same meaning, I simply linked an out dated site. Try this one. It shows that it will be implimented next April. thanks for drawing it to my attention.

Are you trying to be dishonest your links are both dated today. Your second link says the tax will be introduced next year not implemented.

This replaces the 45pc supertax proposed last November, and it will be introduced a year early – in April next year.

I'm a Conservative working on my MBA and tracking for a PhD. I must be an exception... no...
The reason that most of us quit after undergraduate, or don't go to college at all is a) Most colleges make you spew Liberal talking points, or fail b) Many Conservatives have a sense of duty and decide to join the military (which is filled with many of the brightest minds) or help up their evil capitalist parents at their business.
