Liberals Added to Endangered Species list
Do you consider yourself conservative or liberal? Are your views of culture based on passed down traits of your parents or learned? If you are liberal, have you once been conservative and changed to liberal thought? If you are conservative have you ever been liberal and changed to liberal thought?


When I was a young man I was liberal but I grew out of it... I think most young people are idealistic and open to liberal thinking. David Mamet: Why I Am No Longer a 'Brain-Dead Liberal' village voice > news > David Mamet: Why I Am No Longer a 'Brain-Dead Liberal' by David Mamet But how does one explain how mature adults end up liberal?

Due to the weakness of mature adult liberals they find it necessary to mandate liberalism to the majority since they refuse to procreate. Given the opportunity of power they will use PC laws to end "conservative speach" and thought. Liberals are in the minority by choice so why are they so outspoken?

Through the past three decades, conservatives have been procreating more than liberals

I think you'll be seeing more liberals created because of the Bush administration.

I love that Zack is extolling the words of David Mamet - one of the most profane writers of film and theatre today. LOL On another thread, he bemoaned the state of entertainment today. Now one of the leaders in that field is a socio-political hero? LOL

You're right, I was once a liberal and I eventually grew out of it; I'm now a socialist.

On the other thread I was comparing the message differences between Bonanza and Grand Theft Auto...

On this thread I point out that liberals are in a minority and are amongst a very demanding vocal group of demanding little people... they are made up of emotional women, girliemen and young impressionable people. They thrive on emotion and are averse to reason, logic and facts.

Liberals are demanding because they are in the minority and need to change the rules to allow their position to stand... Like liberal talk radio isn't competitive with conservative talk radio so they want a new law that demands conservative talk radio "must also" give equal time to liberal talk. It's kind of like a homosexual saying I'm normal... normal will allow a homosexual to walk up to a new father and congratulate him and say I hope he grows up to be gay! It would have the same reaction if you walked up to me and said I hope your sons grow up to be liberal... abnormal deserving of an ass whipping.

Only an emotional girlieman or immature child would make sweeping statements that blanket all "liberals" with the same intentions, thoughts, actions, beliefs and ideologies.

Trying to make the word "liberal" an epithet is a losing proposition - try something else.

You haven't heard?

The socialist Labour party has been in a majority at Westminster since 1997.

Yeah, and the Communist Party has been in power in China for over fifty years and they probably have a freer market than the United States. Doesn't mean anything.

European social democracy is capitalism lite. Not socialism.
