Please share your favorite political generalization. I'll start:

Liberals hate those who are successful.

Then please explain why the majority of people in my district are considered "wealthy" and "liberal?" The same can be said about a lot of other districts on the coasts and large cities.

Anyone else want to share?

Conservatives hate poor people. (I actually had my one friend in college ask her conservative roommate why Republicans hate poor people)

Liberals hate babies.

I would say that a lot of "American liberals" aren't nearly as liberal as "Western European liberals." (Try saying that five times fast

I seems like most of the far right in this country think that Obama is a far left liberal, yet he's clearly a left leaning centrist.

Whoa! The "left" and "right" in this country are both authoritarian in nature.

The only real liberals or progressives in this country are libertarians, objectivists, and voluntaryists.

I was implying that "liberals" in Amerika are NOT liberal at all.
