You forgot "guilt-ridden", "victimized", "mob-oriented", "Hypocritical", "controlling"

I was trying to be nice, they're really touchy today.

Wow, I believe liberals got accused of being both living on welfare, with multiple children and being addicted to government handouts AND being over educated urban elite in the same thread!

aren't we quite the overachievers

I've never once accused liberals of being over-educated or elite, it's been years since I met a liberal who showed signs of having a high school diploma much less being over educated. Liberals may believe that they're elite and over-educated but they also thought that Obama was a good choice in President.

This is the funniest post in ages.
A "rather serious-looking 30-something gal"? Rather serious, as in, frowning? Furrowed brow? Whip-carrying? Following all the traffic rules?

And oh lawdy, what could that bumper sticker mean??
There's the media, which is obviously overwhelmingly liberal and anyone who doesn't live in a cave knows this, regardless of how they lean.
Soooo....the liberal media. She doesn't believe it!

Does that mean it's right there on par with Santa Claus for her??
How can this be?!

What on earth is she saying with this sticker
and
good God in Heaven, what's to make of that mindset?!!!

This is something we must hash out on C-D!!!

Maybe you should increase the size and scope of your friendships. I've met plenty of conservatives and liberals that are extremely intelligent, and many are constants in my social circle. You have a lot of hatred for those that may hold a different opinion than you, and that's sad

It's not hatred, it's sadness. I feel sad for people who are so out of touch with reality that they let it affect their health and well being.

I once saw a sticker in 2000 that read: "Nixon 2000. Even dead he is not as stiff as Al Gore".

It means she doesn't listen to anything that is contrary to what she believes.
