If you 100% agree with any one party, you're probably not thinking very hard. If you consider yourself completely "liberal" or completely "conservative" without even hearing the issues being debated/considered, you probably need to spend a little less time labeling everything and a little more time making up your own mind.
Exactly! Too many folks on here seem to blindly follow their party line without apparent critical thought about the issues.

What's really sad is that conservatives actually believe the pap you're shoveling here.

I personally know lots of conservatives and none would condone killing an abortionist. That is just another stereotyped that is perpetrated by the media associating acts of a few crazies to all conservative pro-lifers. The poster you are referring to is nothing but a blind, partisan hack and does not represent all conservatives.

Yes and then we have those who run around thinking they're fooling others with their little word games. All the while looking like ignorant common garden variety racists.

Crazy world out there.

There was another thread recently started by Organik with conservative humor and jokes. Liberals have stereotypes about conservatives as conservatives have about liberals. Lighten up dude.

Ummmmmmmm no. Because the Religious Right owns your party. True conservatives do not make abortion an issue. They could care less about abortion or gay marriage as issues. But because the republicans sold out to the RR, they've convinced the minions that the issues are worth fighting for.

Apparently you're not reading DC's responses. She certainly believes everything on that list to be true. Look around at the thread titles. They're full of assumptions and stereotyping.

This place is teeming with RW extremists who buy into this stuff. Hook, line and sinker.

Lighten up indeed.

Replace the word...pap....with TRUTH, and it is as clear as the sun in your eyes.

I could use shades as dark as yours though.
Maybe its the earwax?

Blind faith in change you can believe in?

jeez and you're the one who told TC to "lighten up". The listed "jokes" about liberals are obviously generalizations, just as my note was. Hopefully in your zeal to defend conservatives from these more extreme elements, you can also recognize that not all "liberals" fit into the stereotypes thrown out here by the OP.
