Well I think we're starting to come to a "consenus" on a FEW things anyway.
On the one hand you say that being a "democrat" or a "liberal" can have (or prone to have) "socialist tendencies" which is "un-American"???
And I quote you, "Being a liberal democrat is not anti-American. Just some of the socialistic tendencies are. Those are what I will argue against"---end quote! Yet as I said (not MY opinion---but HISTORICAL facts!) the "right-wing, ultra-conservative" elements in Germany, Italy and Japan in the early 20th century are what led to the MOST deplorable and despicable acts against humankind that this world has EVER seen! THOSE are what I will ARGUE AGAINST! Look my friend---I'm about as "close" to "center" as you believe YOU are. I've voted Republican as WELL as Democratic in the past (been BURNED MORE by Repubs than Demos however), and I truly believe that the "moderates" in the republican party are just as good as Americans as are the "moderates" in the Democratic party. It's just the folks that try and "LUMP" ALL liberals or Democrats into that "socialist" scheme, and the ULTRA-RIGHT-WING faction that I have a problem with. Cause MOST "liberals" are NOT "socialist"--- JUST AIN'T SO! Just like I KNOW that ALL republicans are NOT "fascist" either! However, the "mainstream" right-wing media is portraying ANYONE who "disagrees" with Gee-Dubya and his gang as ALL a bunch of "leftist, commie-sympathising-UN-American, traitors" who should be STRUNG UP and/or run out of America! Well, that's NOT the case---and folks like Rush Limburger and his gang should be "SHOUTED DOWN" every damn chance we get! That's ANOTHER thing I'll "argue" about as well. Anyway, enough "Rebel Rousing" for one day---gotta go walk the dog. have a nice day (or night now).

the best part I liked about Gimpy's definition of liberal and one I find true of myself if you want to call me one is the lack of snobbishness! i think the Bush's have a terrible lot of this when it comes to being out of touch with the common people or working class of people and although I am a self-employed professional I consider myself that. I think their mentality is let them eat cake like Marie Antoinette and surpirisingly too many Republicans. i was shocked by Hannity's program last night and his crassness and he has that skinny blonde woman Ann Coulter, who talked about calling welfare recipients who got childcare credits and making them grovel! That's the height of snobbishness to me!
I liked John McCain but there is no love between him and Bush after the lies they pulled in South Carolina. Their goal is to win at all costs. hannity will not serve his country by his own admission and I have no respect for his kind. i think we need more vets in Congress on both sides and more of the old time liberalism! |

Yep,

WHOOPS!
Well I guess ya got me there, didn't ya??
At LEAST according to "your" -- score-keeping--But, I STILL got a LONG way to go to "catch-up" with ALL the so-called "compassionate conservatives" around here, ya know. But don't worry--I'll keep up my efforts---I won't let you down. But, Jesus man---like you said---you REALLY ought to FIND something better to do than argue with ME all the time?? But, I'm "willing and able" if you are! See ya in the "debate" lounge!
