I score center slight left on all of the political leaning quizzes I take.
I want to know why some people have such disdain for the right, the conservatives.
I consider myself an old school classic liberal in the vein of Carlin. I don't always agree with the right but it seems like I find myself siding with them more so than the far left. The far left is getting too authoritarian and too much for big government.
I want to know in polite terms why and what is wrong exactly with the conservative crowd and please try and keep it polite and as fact based as we can.

Those who frequently refer to posters as Jim Bob and Bubba. Those who use the phrases "gun nuts" and "conspiracy theorist" and "tin foil hat". How's that for a start?
