The problem that the new world order advocates do not realize is this - I am certain most Liberals (I am taking an American-centric perspective) are good people and all that. Yes, confused, but good people nonetheless. However, and this is the crux, the people they try to lift up and explain away and make excuses for are not good people. That is the thing they do not understand. The average American may not be able to locate Ethiopia on a map, but when they had a crisis in the 80s there was an outpouring of donations. Do you think the average Chinese would do that? Liberals always say how the US is attacking innocent countries, but if China was to be in the current dominant position occupied by the US, what do they think China would do? Do they think they would worry about collateral damage? As for terrorism - sure, they may want to try to 'understand' what is happening, but honestly - do you think if any of the various jihadi groups had an opportunity to attack New York, that they wouldn't?

That's the problem right there.

Which is why I always say a cure for Liberalism (big L, I have no problem with little l) is for each American to travel outside the US. So they can see how things truly are. So they can visit some of those nations they consider paragons of paradise (e.g. Cuba, and particularly Venezuela) and realize what a shortage of milk to a mother of four feels like! So they can experience 60% tax levels in some countries of the world. So they can know why communism is the best economic system - on paper - and why in real life it can NEVER work and only leads to two classes (the ruling elite who are extremely powerful, and everyone else who is scrounging for lichen at the bottom of watertanks).

T is for Travel - the only cure for Liberalism.

Without it, they will continue to wax poetic, before jumping into one of two cars, drive over to the local Target or Mall or BestBuy, and then debate over which Blu-Ray player to purchase and whether they should upgrade their flatscreen. Yeah, try that in Venezuela - their praise for Chavez would really evaporate quickly. Funny thing is, even though they claim US consumption is 'too high,' that doesn't stop them from consuming.

Sounds like hypocrisy to me. If they really believed what they say, why do they not go to Venezuela and living in the paradise there?

Hey B4Ranch ...hear that .....crickets!
