Personally I am not suprised that a liberal is capable of thinking so clearly and correctly on this issue.

I realize that I am in a small minority on this website holding this heretical position.

Evidently everyone who disagrees with conservatism (however poorly defined) is an evil, amoral (or immoral) enemy that is completely incapable of rational thought.

Trying to work with some liberals on a case-by-case basis where we happen to agree is supposedly a fool's errand.

We conservatives are not like the Taliban so we will not demand that all our enemies be eliminated or relegated to some second class status. But somehow we are supposed to believe that any conversation with liberals is a total waste of time, and that they are all out to undermine our way of life. How anyone can hold those two positions simultaneously mystifies me, but it is evidently something that most Freepers are able to do.

Thanks for posting this.

Not every liberal but more than usual these days due to the fact that the FAR left is now in power...the ones who brought us Malcolm X adorers and Bill Ayers sycophants. The ones who believe that it's normal for gays to marry, for Gov't to make all health decisions, for taxes to be raised astronomically because people want to perpetrate myths instead of science about the environment.

By way of contrast, most of the people demonstrating against Zero are hold normal views. You know, don't kill or experiment on babies, leave health choices to individuals, and don't treat nuclear arms rogues like equal partners. These are NOT radical views.

There's the difference.
