The Difference: If a conservative doesn't like guns, they don't buy one. If a liberal doesn't like guns, then no one should have one.
If a conservative is a vegetarian, they don't eat meat. If a liberal is vegetarian, they want to ban all meat products for everyone.
If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat his enemy. A liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.
If a conservative is homosexual, they quietly enjoy their life. If a liberal is homosexual, they loudly demand legislated respect.
If a black man or Hispanic is conservative, they see themselves as independently successful. Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection.
If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.
If a conservative doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels. Liberals demand that those they don't like be shut down.
If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church. A liberal wants all churches to be silenced and God removed from public view..
If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it. A liberal demands that his neighbors pay for his.
love it!
What’s the difference between an Honor Student and a gang banger?

A 2x6?
One faces to the Left; the other faces to the Right?
(Most) conservatives are what used to be called liberals. Politics is crazy.
If a Conservative wants to debate, they present the facts. If a Liberal wants to debate they either re-write history or present emotions - then they run from the debate.
I thought if a conservative was a vegetarian it’s because he hates vegetables and wants to KILL them!
Nice!
A liberal is a marxist.
Truth is wonderful huh?

I’m an atheist, am I not welcome here?
Nice! :)
The big difference between liberals and conservatives—liberals are afraid that people will find out what they believe, and conservatives are afraid people won’t.
Liberal: “America, I’ll love you if you change.”
Conservative: “America, I love you.”
Yes. Also: the differnce between progressives and conservatives is this: Progressives need conservatives, conservatives don’t need progressives.
