Oops liberal/brain= oxymoron.

Have you ever posted anything that wasn't an attack or an insult on liberals?

It amazes me when whole countries, with millions and millions of people are conservative or liberal.

Because trying to discuss anything with a liberal is like trying to teach a pig to sing.....wastes your time and annoys the pig.

Answer this one. Why are liberals constantly posting threads to the effect of "Why are liberals XXX and conservatives YYY"? with the odvious inplication that the liberals are superior. My theory is a deep seated and well deserved inferiority complex combined with delusions of grandeur.

Your thoughts?
