The country hasn’t gotten more liberal, the government has. Flyover country is thick with people that would be considered conservative if you only took their value system into account, and not political labels.

Because they’ve been lied to as to what the left really wants.

re: while the country has become more liberal in some ways, the Republican Party has moved to the extreme right....

Really? When did that happen? Did we finally get rid of all the RINOs in the party?

And cherry picking a few tortuously worded survey questions does not a trend make.

Somebody been hittin’ da happy smoke. The “people” who “identify” with the left do so only because they are lowlife, freeloading scumbags who will vote only for those who will give them a free ride.

Really??? Since when does someone's blog posts count as newsworthy around here?

How about we allow the bloggers to get hits on their sites through their own means and not by dragging in curious FReepers?

What's next, we start posting facebook pages and their comments as well as personal blogs?

Because they are brainwashed from kindergarten through college that Conservatives and Republicans are evil.

The wonder is that there are any Conservatives at all after decades of this Jedi mind tricking that's been going on.

He makes some good points, but a society can have freedom OR equality of outcome, NOT BOTH.

In many ways the one is the opposite of the other.

A completely free society in which all runners cross the goal line in the same photo finish?

Doesn’t exist, never will.

They probably trolled coffee houses in Seattle, Boston, and Berkeley for their statistical sample group.

WTF, mate? The Republican party is only right if you're using the relative measure comparing it to the Democrat party… and even then the difference is essentially/practically nonexistent.

This dude is straight out of Orwell, liberal values equal freedom and enlightened thought. Freedom is slavery, war is peace, blah blah blah..
