Liberals Are The Ones With No Imagination
OMG! For America ^ | 4-14-12 | The Looking Spoon

Posted on 04/14/2012 10:40:26 AM PDT by The Looking Spoon

The latest from Newsbusters shows the left is trying a different angle attacking Ann Romney...

(National Organization for Women President) TERRY O'NEILL:  What would we be saying if Hillary Clinton [sic] had said this: that Ann Romney has never, has not worked for pay outside the home a day in her life?  That's my understanding that's an accurate statement, and that raises the exact issue that Hilary Rosen was trying to get to, which is do Mr. & Mrs. Romney have the kind of life experience and if not, the imagination, to really understand what most American families are going through right now? I think that that was what Hilary was getting out, and so she left out the words "for pay outside the home."

This line of attack is a stinker, and Ed Morrissey at Hot Air astutely points out how these clueless people are violating the first rule of holes,

Their continuing to show utter contempt for what has been traditional American life belies the truth that this election isn't simply about the economy, it's about what kind of country we want America to be.

Do we want to maintain the values that made this country strong in the first place? Or do we want to turn ourselves over to liberals like Terry O'Neill and the true leftist vision for the country?

It's known Romney's wealth wasn't inherited, it was earned. Despite what Occupiers and their liberal supporters (many of which "earn" their opulent lifestyle as parasites on taxpayers), making millions of dollars takes imagination.

If there is anyone in the country totally bereft of imagination it's Liberal/Socialist/Progressive/Democrats.

Only unimaginative people propose tax hikes on the most successful to paper over deficits in a bad economy.

Only unimaginative people think socializing health insurance will drive down medical costs more than actually driving down medical costs.

Only unimaginative people think government entitlements promote liberty and not dependence.

Only unimaginative people could see a life inside a mothers womb and see woman's reproductive "right" and not the first first one outlined in the Declaration of Independence.

Poll after poll throughout the years have shown that only 20% of Americans consider themselves to be liberal. It's a market share that refuses to budge higher than that ceiling, and the reason why is their ideas, when they are honest about them, are so bad normal Americans can't imagine how they could possibly be good for the country

All Romney has to do to prove he understands what the average American is going thru is to pledge not to take any lavish vacations while in office on the taxpayers dime.

It isn't imagination that the compulsion driven fanatics, whom we mistakenly label "liberals," lack; rather the ability to reason rationally. Conservatives accept reality--after all, it is aspects of existing reality that we seek to preserve--to conserve--and hence the label "Conservative."

What we "imagine" are things which dynamically flow from those aspects of reality that we desire to preserve, while at the same time being able to understand rationally what will dynamically flow from the fallacies that the Left seeks to impose upon us.

I am not trying to be pedantic. These distinctions are vital to being able to effectively deal with those who mean to destroy our heritage.

NOW, of course, is not the champion of the actual interests of women. NOW has always been the true enemy of the feminine woman--the woman Blessed with all the fine traits that all decent men used to honor in women. The attack on Ann Romney is precisely because she is a feminine woman--a loving wife & mother. A woman who understood that raising her children properly was more important than all the nonsensical projects that NOW and the like promote.

For more on the absurdity of NOW & those of its mindset: Feminist Delusion.

Why it is that Conservatives are called the “right”

And Liberals are called the “left.”

“The heart of the wise inclines to the right,
But the heart of the fool to the left.”
Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV) Thus sayeth the Lord. Amen.

Can’t get any simpler than that.

While the modern use of the terms comes from the seating in the French National Assembly in 1789, that would certainly not gainsay the Biblical lesson you quote. Truth--real truth--is timeless.

Also, the majority of Conservatives come from the RIGHT side of the Bell Curve. The majority of Liberals come from the LEFT side of the Bell Curve. Simple as that!

There are "intelligent" Leftists, but they tend to be compulsion, rather than reason, driven--hence analytically dysfunctional.

This is a frequent subject for discussion at my Web Site. Just consider how easily they get absolutely hysterical over some aspect of normal human attitudes or behavior. The one thing which best describes many is as irrational.
