Helen Thomas: What's Wrong With Being Liberal?

For starts, it makes you so gut-grabbing butt ugly you should never be seen in public...

What's wrong with it?

It doesn't work. It's shrill demogoguery at its worst. It doesn't represent the mainstream of American thought. It represents much of what America fought against throughout the cold war. It robs Peter to pay Paul.

The list goes on and on.

One of the biggest drawbacks to me is the lobotomy scar.

What's Wrong With Being Liberal?

Everything.

To be a liberal one must believe that weakness and failure are virtues, strength and success must be punished, and cap it all off with an irredeemable sense of smug self-righteousness.

Regards, Ivan

Maybe she should ask Kerry. He's the one who objected to the label during the debates!

Liberals are junior socialists. Socialists are junior communists. Communists murdered over 100,000,000 people last century.

That is why liberals, socialists, and communists are rightfully scorned.

What is wrong?

When 78% of the people vote for a law and then a liberal judge throws out the law.

That's what's wrong.

One person should not cancel out the voice of the people.

That's what the mullahs do in Iran.

I trust the people, not a judge or media mullah!!

What's wrong with being Liberal?

Helen, if you are over 40yrs old and have to ask, you don't have the smarts to comprehend the answer.

'Anyone who is not a liberal when they are twenty has no heart. Anyone who is not conservative when they are forty has no mind.' --- close paraphrase of several Winston Churchill quotes...

"When a president wipes out overtime for millions of workers..."

I'm tired of this argument...

OK Freepers, who's lost their overtime pay? Do you guys KNOW anyone who's lost their overtime pay?

Helen Thomas: What's Wrong With Being Liberal?

Nothing, Helen. There are some very fine liberals - Nat Hentoff comes to mind. But they frame their opinions around facts, don't spead lies and don't tell half the story. A political agenda devoid of facts leads to tyranny, because the only way to protect the foundation of lies for that philosophy is to not allow the truth to be told. And that is why you and your vile ilk attack the truth about Kerry so aggressively.

Unfortunately, liberals of today are anything but liberal. Most are collectivist, and totally opposed to true freedom.

Any liberal that wants to give more power to the government are living a lie: you are following in the footsteps of the German people of the 1930's.
