Don't you mean that you are now listening to ex-communists and assuming U-Tube is a viable source of information, explains a lot.
Yes.. it does as matter of fact...when a former leftwing radical changes his views...it helps to sway others like him to come on our side...You could say its football game...its the fourth quarter...time running out... Liberals are up...but Conservatives are on goal line threating to win the game...

More like the Conservatives got spun around and are heading for what would be in soccer called an 'own goal', AKA shooting one's self in one's foot
You are wrong. No WAY in HELL are conservatives more tolerant.
Just look at your own posts about gays. Look at what conservatives think about gays and lesbians and women who had abortions. Or some conservatives and their stand on non Christians.
Then tell me who is more tolerant.
But yes, both liberals and conservatives are intolerant.
Take a look at the "Sterilized Welfare Queen" thread.
As the older generation dies out, we will see a better newer fresher nation.
Heh..heh...
Add 30 years experience and a couple of kids and you won't even remember the person you are today. But you will understand why "older" people are what they are.
" David Horowitz a former leftwing communist states that liberals are intolerant and bigots"
Right, David Horowitz is the ultimate authority on determining who is intolerant and bigoted. So, we should all take his comments seriously.
About the equivalent of a former Christian saying that religious people are intolerant and bigoted.....
Few people have good things to say about the groups they choose to leave.
It's not really that simple Sagran. People leave ideological groups for profound reasons. It's not like changing your underwear.
Or maybe you can show us a liberal who switched from conservativism who is as impressive as Horowitz and his transformation.
I really would love one liberal to actually debate this and prove what is said in this video because man he makes a very good case for Obama trying to make America a socialist nation
Ya'll can say oh there you go using that word. Man get over that and lets talk about what David said in this video prove him wrong please
Overall yes, conservatives are more tolerant. I do agree everyone is probably intolerant of something but that would cover a wide spectrum.
and I agree with you 100%. No one is totally tolerant of everything and everybody but certainly liberals are less than conservatives. Most think, you either think their way or agree with them or you are wrong. Most conservatives I know do understand the other side, they just do not agree.
