I think she might be soooo open minded that everything just slips right in, or out.

“For understanding that things aren’t always black and white.”

Straw man statement. Straw men were the basis for all 28 of her arguments.

Of course things aren’t “always” black and white. But, Truth IS black and white.

(Liberals contradict themselves immediately when they assert “there are no truths” as if that itself is a truth.)

So, her social interactions revolve around liberal orthodoxy. She is upset that she is socially unacceptable where she lives, and she wants liberals to know she is not like the other bitter clingers.

“I can only imagine the relief this news brings to her friends and relatives!”
You've got that right. I can almost picture here with clinched teeth and spit flying as she screeched this tantrum.
But the truth is every time she had a political discussion with them she lost.

My responses (I didn’t bother to read her rationales):

1. You support revisionist history.
If thinking that white males had anything to do with the founding and history of country is now ‘revisionist’, then yes.

2. You cite Jesus as your reasoning for rejecting marriage equality.
The last time that I checked the bible, all marriages were equal - one man and one woman. Didn’t matter on race, nationality, or anything.

3. You use Biblical scriptute to excuse yourself from feeding the hungry.
I guess you never heard of churches doing charity work, or that churches did ALL of the charity work before government starting pointing guns at people to collect taxes.

4. You lie when you say you value “freedom of religion.”
To the point of not belonging to a religion that exists to kill “non-believers”, we support and value “freedom of religion”. As far as I know, no Jew in the United States was ever FORCED to become a Christian.

5. You claim God speaks to you and tells you to do things.
Oh, but He does.

6. You question my faith.
Deal with it. I was made of fun of most of my life, and probably still. You sound more like a CRY BABY here. And no, it is not possible to be a liberal, by today’s definition, and still be a Christian.

7. You care more about your guns than you do about children.
Actually we care more about our CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS than we do about our children or anything else. Without those rights our kids might as well be sex slaves in Nigeria.

8. You get excited about people dying.
Assisted suicide anyone? Pushing gun control while the bodies at Sandy Hook are still warm anyone? Releasing movies about President Bush being assassinated anyone?

9. You assume that everyone who needs help are losers and parasites who refuse to work.
No, only about 80 to 90%. Unfortunately the 10-20% that really do need help GET SHAFTED because of so much money going to deadbeats.

10. You weren’t concerned about uninsured people– including me.
Oh, but we were. First, we were trying get the economy moving enough so that you could get a job with healthcare benefits, but have constantly be THWARTED by your side (Keystone, anyone). Second, our side also has PLENTY of health care reform proposals, but your side stopped working with us once Hillarycare failed - for YOUR SIDE it was ALL OR NOTHING, and that “all” eventually got its chance with Obamacare. Now if you’re upset that DEADBEATS had trouble getting insurance, then TOUGH - people that can work, should work. You run a blog, you could get a job somewhere.

11. The Creation Museum — that is all.
Most of us haven’t heard any better explanation, do you have one?

12. You’re liberal in youth, yet grow conservative in age.
Yes, we MATURE as we grow up. At least some of us...

13. You don’t want people who disagree with you to vote.
Actually, we’d APPRECIATE IT if they only VOTED ONCE and not through a proxy. And by the way, the way your side forces candidates like McCain, Romney, and now Jeb DOWN OUR THROATS (via the media), makes me seriously think that you guys are trying to SUPPRESS our vote, as you know that conservatives will not vote for these people in large numbers.

14. Some of your best friends are black. Or Mexican.
You have a problem with that? I don’t see a lot of diversity in LIBERAL ENCLAVES, like at the top of Sony and similar companies. Seems to be all white males, with a sprinkling of white women.

15. You scream about undocumented immigrant children at the border, but you hire Mexicans to do your dirty work.
Do we have a choice? Anyone who’s over 50 remembers that AMERICANS used to do hard work. But since YOU GUYS (albeit with our help) FLOODED the country with Illegals, it’s simply not possible to get American kids away from their video games and out pushing lawn mowers.

16. You insist on calling undocumented immigrants “illegals” and “aliens.”
The term ALIEN is in the Constitution (I think). That is an ACCEPTED DEFINITION of a person not in the country legally, whether they are from Canada or Jupiter. You’re just upset because we REFUSE to go along with your Orwellian attempt to redefine the term.

17. You don’t mind using force against “lesser” groups to get what you want.
It was the DEMOCRAT PARTY that imposed SEGREGATION in the South and maintained it for DECADES.

18. You love war, death, and destruction.
The ABSOLUTE STUPIDITY on your side got us into WW1, WW2, Korea, and Vietnam. All 4 wars were entered into by DEMOCRAT Presidents and most had to be ended by Republicans. Now you guys are picking a fight with Putin, almost daring him to start WW3. The best Reagan could do was get us into Granada, were we lost like 3 people.

19. Speaking of war, you think draft dodging is OK and military service is for the little people.
Yes, we do think that military service is good for “the little people”. I work with some REALLY sharp vets that were “little people” (i.e., poor minorities) until they joined the service. They would have otherwise spent their lives in one of your liberal hell holes had they not joined, and quite possibly could be dead now. As far as the rich draft dodging, you’re about 40 years late complaining about that - but the RICH BANKERS did get a FREE PASS from the Obama Administration for the 2008 mortgage crisis - and there was TONS OF FRAUD then.

20. You claim to care about the Constitution, but in reality you don’t.
Your side has a LOT MORE to answer for regarding the Constitution than conservatives could ever dream of, starting with the Tenth and Second Amendments, but hitting many other parts. It’s not even close and most liberal leaders do acknowledge that.

21. It’s impossible for you to see your privilege.
If “privilege” is the result of HARD WORK, then yes, it it is very difficult for use to see it. If “privilege” is the result of quotas and set-asides, designed to give certain groups advantages over others when it comes to college admissions, contracts, and jobs, then NO, we see that EVERY DAY.

22. You don’t care about children.
But at least we have children.

23. You’re greedy and miserable.
Despite having to read this crap, I’ll be cheerful all day. I doubt that you can say the same.

24. You think our religion is the only one.
You guys certainly think that your religion is the only one. The religion of LIBERALISM, which doesn’t seem to have any room to coexist with any other, except Islam (and believe me, that is only temporary).

25. You are lazy and you refuse to read.
Oh we read a lot, that’s the president feels the need to start CENSORING THE INTERNET - we’re getting WAY TOO MUCH information, independently.

26. Your misfortune is God’s blessing.
You got me on that one...but I am still waiting to meet the person that believes that.

27. “Everyone has their lot in life.”
Actually, the support of you guys for “Bilingual Education” (i.e., Spanish language education) means that Hispanics are PREVENTED from learning English fluently. My company is loaded with Hispanics, but they all speak English perfectly (or with a slight accent), they all have college educations, and they mostly own guns (Texas, of course), and I’m sure you know how they now vote. But “Bilingual Education” (i.e., making sure they don’t learn English well) is the BEST WAY to stop this from happening, and assuring that Hispanics stay put in the barrio, with their “lot in life”, and most importantly, vote SOLID DEMOCRAT.

28. You think you’re the only one working and paying taxes.
No, we know that half of healthy working-age Americans also work and pay taxes. We also know that much of the other half DO NOT WORK OR PAY TAXES, but lives off our incomes. We do have a problem with that. I doubt you’d be very happy if your deadbeat neighbor came over to your house, pulled a gun on you, and DEMANDED thousands of dollars. But let that deadbeat neighbor enlist the government to do just that, then it’s NO PROBLEM, at least for you guys.

I think this was written by a seriously disturbed person, one who suffers from delusions. This screed reeks of dishonesty.

She’s found her home with the liberal cult.

How is contraception sodomy? I thought sodomy simply referred to certain sex acts.

If you profess to be a Christian and do not accept Jesus as the Redeemer then you are picking and choosing from the faith.

???

How can you have one and not the other?

How’d you figure out that was Tiffany speaking? I didn’t see a mention of her name (the poster was a Joan Nelson).

When I was a liberal, I did something like that regarding environ-MENTAL-ism. I got made fun of, too. Probably deserved it.

The author thinks it is wrong to think there is ONLY one “religion”.

And Obama was brought up in an agnostic home (with 2 muslim fathers) and in his Unitarian grandmother’s home.

Barack’s claim of being Christian is one of those sorts who picks and chooses.

As usual, what she claims is inflammatory, false, and designed to stop communication between liberals and conservatives. The reason we are where we are IMO is that both parties have polarized the people to the point that no one can talk and share ideas. This piece is part of that. Lies, lies, lies. Wow.

Many liberals, if you can get them talking calmly, actually are less liberal than they claim and have many conservative and libertarian views. But keeping everyone polarized is good for the establishment.

This piece is shockingly transparent to me.

I've seen this chick around Austin, weaving her Make Texas Blue and Wendy Davis for Governor bumper sticker covered Prius across lanes while texting and sipping on her Starbucks latte on her way to her coveted state government job as a social case worker for fellow Austin hippies.

A few points were valid. Most were either out of context or just trash. Paul of Tarsus met the risen Jesus yet she claims they never met. She pulled a Glenn Beck and went over the deep end.
