On balance, the Democrats are now the party of freedom and liberty.

"War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, and Ignorance is Strength".

Got it...

[ansel12]

Libertarians and liberals.

[lentulusgracchus]

[Art.] How did this happen?

In your libtard imagination, moron.

Freedom to sodomize little boys on the high altar of St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York?

Freedom to fellate each other in public parks and beach areas?

Yeah, that's freedom, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were all about that.

I’d be more interested in Peter Weber explaining the difference between the new democrat and the old communist.

Taking away Christian Freedom is the Marxist definition of liberty.

Pray America is waking

[vpintheak]

Sorry fascists, it doesn’t work that way.

[Article] In 1976, the GOP platform said the party was split on the issue of abortion rights, calling it "undoubtedly a moral and personal issue," Fisher noted at The Washington Post.

Classic liberal/Prog compo-lie-sition. Notice the switcheroo? The writer pretends to source the GOP 1976 platform (written by Big East GOP-E's), but quickly pivots and quotes his liberal puke doing spin tricks over at the WaPo.

Then he uses that as support for a general calumny against "social conservatives", who are totally not in either the platform's writing or the snarkfest at the WaPo.

Classic. Lie about people, quote other people, and then pretend you've supported your statement.

[Cowboy Bob]

Because nothing says “liberty” like sticking your Johnson up some little boy’s anus.

[wastoute]

Not liberty license, for perversion.

[piasa]

Democrats are the party of license, not liberty.

[Secret Agent Man]

Party of perversion. Liberty isnt for perversion.

[Viennacon]

I am against the freedom of cultural terrorists. If that makes me a statist, then fine. I consider the Left worse and more dangerous than Al Qaeda. PERIOD

PUKE......
The Party of up is down and wrong is right..

[conservaKate]

So here’s what tips the balance for me. When you look at the freedoms Republicans proffer, they tend to be economic, often favoring businesses or individual material needs. Money and guns are a type of freedom, but they pale compared to personal liberty, like marrying the person you love or trusting that police officers can’t harass or harm you with impunity because of the color of your skin.

To put it another way, Democrats want to let you be the person you are and Republicans want to get the government out of your wallet.

I find it fascinating how people can define freedom in such different ways. This whole right v left thinking .... so different .... and neither side understands *why* the other side believes what they believe.

I also find it interesting and scary how the pendulum swings in what I view a fairly quick amount of time. From same sex relations and Obamacare ... the American public is proving to be quite fickle in what they *say* they believe.

The Democrat candidates should take this time of achieving liberty topromise that the VP nomination will be LGBTQ.

[ConservingFreedom]

Democrats generally favor the freedom for gay people to get married, a less invasive national security/surveillance state, greater choice regarding abortion and contraception, loosened marijuana laws, less restrictive voting laws, less censorship of popular entertainment, more freedom of movement for immigrants, and stronger workplace protections to encourage freedom of leisure time (or fair compensation for giving it up).

Of those 9 items, 5 are not freedoms and another 2 are not opposed by Republicans (not requiring employers to pay for 4 of 20 kinds of contraceptives is not "lesser choice," and nobody but Santorum wants to censor anything). Also, Republicans are increasingly taking a states' rights view on marijuana laws.

More myths and nonsense fropm the Left.
