You lost me right after the first line. I don't mind opinions, but can't take you serious when you state there are no differences between the two parties but emotion.
The Democrats today are extreme socialists in the leadership and communists in the unions.
The right/conservatives, want a good life for everyone and for people to be mostly self reliant and working so they can pay taxes.
Having fewer people on welfare in unemployed is a goal for conservatives and shows the most compassion for man kind.
What the right can do a lot better is to be more aggressive for their point of view in public.
I think if there is any weakness in the Republican party, that would be an area I would like to see strengthened.
You underestimate a sleeping giant. The left do what they do only for the show of it. What it will come down to is who is the more inspired... Kerry isn't capable of inspiring a pissant in a sugar factory.
Perhaps I should have started it up with this:
"Reading something takes reading it. Assuming from opening remarks to have garnered the point is simply not all that worth starting to read in the first place. Reading something also requires acquiring the point of the words as a whole. If one is going to read simply those words that push the personal trigger then waiting for the Cliff's Notes version or video tape it worth putting the piece down."

Registered, liberals are a more fractured group of special interests than the conservatives have ever been.
If anything, liberals at this time are more fractured than a decade ago.
They are far more shrill as well.
Oh I read it, just wasn't all that impressed with the premise. There is no foundation layed for the argument is set.
To begin with, I would not call the difference emotion.
The reason you see liberals marching and not conservatives as often is that conservatives have far less time since they work.
Liberals have no rational argument for anything, so they yell at everything. They are loud and rude in attempts to both get attention and to hide the lack of gray matter behind their arguments.
I think conservatives in general argue more out of common sense and the facts, meanwhile if liberals have emotion, it is because they are simple like children that are behaving badly.
Bless you for having gotten it.
There you go rationalizing the argument. And after your had already nailed it.
Have I seen you on another news site using the same user name to post? I've seen it somewhere.
Hope not. The realization of multiple personalities would be traumatic.
Well http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1153524/posts at least one of them admits it.
I understand and agree with what you said.
The problem I have with the essay is that it is full of Debbie Downers! I will not allow this type of negativity to seep between my ears.
It is clear President Bush hates terrorists and has shown great emotion over the loss of life and the mission that Providence gave him. Is this guy wanting Bush to say he hates Islam? Is he wanting Bush to say he hates gays and lesbians?
I think Bush made a wonderful case for tax cuts, and keeping them permanent.
I just don't believe a President has to "hate" anyone or anything to be an effective tool for "the Right". I believe he has to show resolve.
The rallys that took place across America after 9-11 showed me that Conservative ideology has deep roots in Patriotism. As liberals were trying to convince us that it is indeed possible to "support the military" but not their mission we were winning the debate. Sure, there are liberal elements that seem to be the media darlings, and yes, there are a few that call themselves Republican that simply aren't. It isn't possible to change decades of liberal erosion overnight, but I think we can do it one seat at a time.
I'm Conservative and I am not shaking my head, I'm shaking hands and trying to convince people to saddle up. Essays like this seem to demotivate, and not build a positive approach to the mission.
By the way, I would say the media culture has already made a huge impact on this nation. Drive around your neighborhood and 99.9% of the houses have TV's tuned in listening to the liberal media establishment. Thank God for Fox News, a light in the wilderness.
I agree and also the internet made a big impact.
That was very well thought out... Perhaps you are correct on the matters of the world through a right-wingers' eyes. Most Republicans do not stand up and explain theirselves correctly.
Although your little article was more of a left slant I do agree with "some" of it.
Just remember it has never been your party of bleding-heart libs that has ever done anything with this country...Well, they gave us people to laugh at though. Isn't it funny that two of the biggest libby leaders are the poverty-pimps Sharpton and Jackson... They don't hide behind Christ... They hide in their rich-ass homes when their inner-city communities are falling apart... You know the even funnier thing... their aint no Republicans running that city council.
You will be hearing from me soon world...I promise...I will help the cause.
