Noel Sheppard is projecting his own insecurities onto a target he feels threatens him.
That will be $5000.

Liberals are more likely to enjoy abstract art.

That sounds like the cover of those magazines at the checkout of the supermarket with stuff on the cover like;
"How to find out what he REALLY thinks!"
"Super Sex Secrets that will Drive Him WILD!"
"Have the Buns and Tummy You Want Right NOW!"
"30 Ways We Trick Ourselves About Love!"
Gee; maybe Psychology Today is nothing more than Glamour or Cosmo with a different cover.

Note that the article says that liberals have more books, not that they read them! ;-)

Thank you for the link about study menthodology:
http://www.ironshrink.com/articles/070116_political_conservatism_study_methodology.php Conservatives are defined as resisting change, which is interpreted by the researchers as fearful.
Meanwhile, liberals are defined as embracing change, which is interpreted by them as being accepting.
So the first 20 cavemen who discovered fire were liberals who embraced it with predictiable results. (Mostely ashes.) While the first conservative to do so stepped back and said, "How can I make some clams from this thing?"

Liberals, on the other hand, are "more likely to see gray areas and reconcile seemingly conflicting information. As a result, liberals like John Kerry, who see many sides to every issue, are portrayed as flip-floppers. Orwell had a word for this. Doublethink. 1984.

"Liberal women are more likely than conservative women to enjoy books, poetry, writing in a diary, acting, and playing musical instruments."
I know liberal women are more likely to go for a superficial, meaningless roll in the hay.

You might not listen to these quacks, but they have much influence. As far as they are concerned - you are a nazi/fascist because of your "rigid" family ideology, respect for the institution of marriage, law, police etc. etc. You're still looking for a "father figure" because of a frustrated fatherhood, so you keep looking for a leader, etc. etc. They obviously deeply believe this, because so much effort in so many avenues of popular culture, academia, judicial system and government has been expended destroying the family unit and associated institutions.

There is NO way that Liberals haves
more and
more varied books than Conservatives; NO WAY!
The Liberals I knew/know have far less books than I have and most of the books they do have, are utter junk!

This sounds like astrology. Substitute leo or aries or cancer and you get the same type of psycho-babble analysis.

How about:
"conservative men are more likely to kick liberal mens' sissy a**es and steal their girlfriends"?
"conservative men are more likely to
be men than liberal so-called men"?
"liberal men are more likely to enjoy romantic comedies because they're sissy little boys who want their girlfriends to think they're sensitive, meanwhile their girlfriends want them to start acting like men and leave their man purses at home"?
"conservative men are more likely to have successfuly hit on female psych majors in college, because psych majors are notoriously messed up in the head in the first place, and are looking for someone with some stability to cling to"?
"conservative men are less likely to be psychologists or psychiatrists, 'cause they have a firm grip on reality and therefore don't need any of that mamby-pamby crap"?
Just a few ideas...thought I'd throw 'em out there.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

I should've known better than to marry a conservative woman.

"That's why the more educated people are, the more liberal they becomebut only to a point. Once people begin pursuing certain types of graduate degrees, the curve flattens. Business students, for instance, become more conservative in their views toward minorities. As they become more established, doctors and lawyers tend to protect their economic interests by moving to the right."
This is probably the most accurate statement in the article. It's a shame that the author lacks the wisdom to interpret it correctly.
It is probably true that the more educated a person the more liberal they are. However this applies to knowledge untouched by real world experience, usually passed on by another liberal who never did wander out of his academic ivory tower and get a real job. As the person takes that knowledge into the real world and does things like make a payroll and pay taxes he gets the real education that allows him to process the data obtained in the institution of higher learning and apply it correctly to real life. The result is a conservative.
I also hates this dummass sayin' that we got no artistic taste. I done me a real purdy paint job on my pickem' up truck.

Those who think the world is highly dangerous and those with the greatest fear of death are the most likely to be conservative. Which is why the military, cops and firemen are all birkenstock wearing ponytailed sensitive liberal men.
