Don't Assume Liberals Always Put Principles Before Profits

The only time liberals bother to follow their “principles” is when those “principles” serve as window dressing to pretty up brutal attacks against America and Americans.

When’s the last time you saw gay rights protests in front of a mosque? When’s the last time the media or hair-brained celebrities took a serious interest in the plight of women in muslim countries? When’s the last time you saw a liberal judge someone on the content of that person’s character rather than the color of that person’s skin? Why is it that Hillary makes speeches AGAINST abortion in India and FOR abortion in the U.S.?

For a liberal “principles” are merely justifications for preexisting Anti-American bias. The moment a liberal would have to apply those “principles” to someone who isn’t American or isn’t White, then you’ll hear nothing but crickets from the left.

Fascinatingly enough, the extreme bigotry of your average liberal results in downright embarrassing examples of Freudian projection. War on women? Read that as liberals waging a war on men and assuming that the other side must be just as bigoted and hateful as the left. Racist dogwhistles? Read that as liberals intentionally inciting racial hatred among minorities for political and social purposes, and naturally a liberal must assume that a conservative is going to be acting the same way. Racist voting patterns? Coming from someone who twice voted for an unqualified and incompetent person purely because the liberal wanted a black man in the white house instead of a white man - a liberal’s justifications for his or her racist voting are merely that, justifications, so when you actually bring up relevant political concerns, the liberal in question will immediately dismiss your concerns as being the same type of racist justification that the liberal uses to justify voting racist in the first place.

As far as I can tell, liberals don’t believe in anything except a woman’s right to kill her own offspring.

Actually they do believe in good and evil, they believe that encouraging a woman to kill her own offspring is good and anything to discourage that in any way is evil!

Al Gore reportedly left government with a net worth of less than $2 million; he's now worth more than $200 million, in part by profiting from climate policies he lobbies for.

I seldom make the mistake of thinking liberals have any principles - well, beyond "I want"...

Then how do you explain MSNBC? I can assure you they are aware of the profits FOX makes.
