Also liberals: Repeal the 2nd Amendment! No one needs AR-15s! Gun owners are murderers and terrorists!

Also liberals: You don’t agree with me? BIGOT! RACIST! FASCIST! WHY ARE YOU SO HATEFUL?

6) Liberals: Romney is such an idiot for thinking Russia is our biggest geopolitical threat. Get back in your time machine so you can get back to the Cold War, Grandpa! Ha, hah, ha!

 Also liberals: Can we talk about how big a threat Russia is to us? Where are the sanctions? Maybe we should bomb Russia!  Why are more people not talking about the danger of Russia?

7) Liberals: We need to do whatever it takes to curb global warming!

Also liberals: Let's all fly overseas in private jets and ride in SUVS to an opulent conference so we can discuss global warming.

G.K Chesterton pretty much nailed these types over a century ago. Times change, but simpletons don't. “But the new rebel is a skeptic, and will not entirely trust anything. He has no loyalty; therefore he can never be really a revolutionist. And the fact that he doubts everything really gets in his way when he wants to denounce anything. For all denunciation implies a moral doctrine of some kind; and the modern revolutionist doubts not only the institution he denounces, but the doctrine by which he denounces it…. “As a politician, he will cry out that war is a waste of life, and then, as a philosopher, that all life is waste of time. A Russian pessimist will denounce a policeman for killing a peasant, and then prove by the highest philosophical principles that the peasant ought to have killed himself…. “The man of this school goes first to a political meeting, where he complains that savages are treated as if they were beasts; then he takes his hat and umbrella and goes on to a scientific meeting, where he proves that they practically are beasts. In short, the modern revolutionist, being an infinite skeptic, is always engaged in undermining his own mines. In his book on politics he attacks men for trampling on morality; in his book on ethics he attacks morality for trampling on men. Therefore the modern man in revolt has become practically useless for all purposes of revolt. By rebelling against everything he has lost his right to rebel against anything.” ― G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

“8) Liberals: My baby can decide his own gender!
Also liberals: Spanking your child? That’s child abuse!”

My 4 year old was crying because I would not buy her what she wanted. In typical old style parenting I told her “Stop crying or I will give you something to cry about.”

She did not stop and I do not bluff. We got to the car and she was on the receiving end. An old lady walked by and saw it, she smiled at me nodding approvingly.

The downside is that my daughter is learning that if she stops crying and says “Please Daddy buy for me as she hugs me” it is most likely she will get what she wants.

I had my son trained not to reach for anything at the store long before he could even talk. I’ve no idea how I did that.

The down side is that even if he really needs something, he won’t say anything.

[Morpheus2009]

Yeah, especially 12.

[chajin]

The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.

[rockrr]

It’s OK to hold opinions - even wacky ones. But these aren’t merely leftist opinions - they’re commandments to the rest of us! My favorite refrain to leftists these days is MYOFB (do I really need to spell it out?)

[Rummyfan]

Cognitive dissonance is a hallmark of liberalism. Further, if they didn’t have double standards, liberals would have no standards at all.

[mjp]

Leftards are emotionalists. Emotionalism is not a means of knowledge.

[generally]

Probably because you actually pay attention to your child, talk to him and listen to him.

Every kid has a bad day, but I’ve observed that it’s the kids who are mostly ignored that “act up” in order to get their parents attention.

Good parenting, exDemMom! We need more like you!
