I'm 34 and was a moderate...liberal... until right around my 30th birthday. Since then I've rethought a lot of my positions and am now more conservative than most of my conservative friends and family. I changed from Independent to Republican on my voter registration.
I suspect you do not know any immigrant children. I have known many- know many now. Those whose families do not speak much English and insist on English only in the home and who have little English themselves raise children who have thick accents in their English and do not speak their parents' language. Those immigrants who speak only their own language in the home and whose children learn English at school and outside with no schooling in their parents' language raise bilingual children with the local accent in English and fluency in both lancuages. Those children who learn heir English strictly outside the home are in the top of their classes in high percentages from the first grades on.
"Bilingual" education teaches a child that learning English is an imposition rather than something natural and it retards their fluency in Engish and their education generally.
Dennis Prager is my favorite radio talk show host.
I guess the late pope was a liberal?
P.S.! "Remember , NONE of our SH-T applies to us. It's only for the peons we can flim-flam in."
A few the wife and I thought up, plus some of yours.
24.You think guns are the cause of crime and violence in inner cities.
25. You think we should defund the armed forces as they have done in France and Canada.
26. Do you think patchouli oil is a substitute for Right Guard?
27. You think animal rights are more important than human rights.
28. Eating meat is murder.
29. George W. Bush is a greater terrorist than Saddam Hussein or Binladin.
30. You believe in freedom of speech, but believe conservative talk radio and Fox News should be censored.

You are okay with students waving flags of terrorist organizations during University of California Student Government elections, or have no problem with students wearing Hamas armbands during graduation.
(Hamas is an internationally recognized terrorist organization)

Agreed. A large percentage of our society would answer “yes, I agree with everything on that list - so?”
There is one I almost agree with. I think we should limit #3 to once apiece.
Sounds like you DISAGREE with #7. Liberals say the poor should NOT get vouchers for school choice.
Bad link. Do you have a good one?
enjoy Prager’s show.. He reminds me of Walter Cronkite - gentle fatherly demeanor .. but how sweet he is a conservative!
Dennis linked to this thread on his Twitter feed today.
I went to his archive on Townhall and couldn’t find the original article, so I guess this thread is the only source!
