...all this crap about "liberals". I find it hilarious that you ****** don't know the difference between Communism, liberalism and socialism (ignorance, or poor education?). You love to label and pigeonhole everyone who disagrees with you, yet you look stupid for not knowing what the heck you're talking about. You bash Europeans, yet in European countries, you don't have to be pigeonholed into being anything.

In most countries, healthcare isn't about money, yet being an advocate of free healthcare won't get you labeled a Communist. In the United States, you are gradually giving away all power to corporations; corporations who have more power than elected politicians. You are so brainwashed into believing that you are the freest nation on earth, when in fact, you are one of the most repressed and controlled nations in the western world, working longer hours than most places, while having your lives dictated to you, with any deviance or bad decision punished to the max. Your hatred for so-called "liberals" is reminiscent of pre-WW2 Nazi Germany....keep going down that road and see where it leads you.

Wake up and smell the coffee, before it's too late.

I've asked about a dozen conservatives on this forum to define Socialism and/or Communism and they couldn't. Sometimes silence speaks louder than words.

Voice of reason.

DISCLAIMER: although this thread is titled "Stupid Americans", I know that many Americans are NOT stupid and are capable of thinking outside the box. However, it takes such a drastic title to generate responses.

It is sad, indeed. Well, what would Saturday Night Life without them, our beloved Conservatives. They are always good for a laugh.. and that's it.

p.s. :

- I don't drive a Toyota Prius
- I'm not entirely convinced by the global warming theory, although I feel that we should try to avoid anything that could/would harm our planet
- I don't drink Perrier water
- I am not a member of the Democrat Party
- I'm no fan of Barack Obama
- I believe in the right to bear arms

So do I fit your definition of a pinko, Communist, tree-hugging, cry-me-a-river, bleeding heart liberal?

I'd say most of them are decent people. It's just the very irrational and outspoken few on here (you know who you are) give them a bad rep. The emptiest barrell makes the most noise.

"free healthcare" = figure of speech my friend.

Where do you sign up? Pick any other nation in the western world, other than the US.
