It’s a waste of time. I spent months online setting the record straight with liberals and their claims about Palin, backed up with facts. I explained how the money for the bridge to nowhere was already given to state before Palin entered office and the lengths to which Stevens went to remove any strings. I posted her federal requests and budgets showing consistent drops and the necessity to request funds for unfunded federal mandates. None of it mattered. Absolutely not one thing....
I think Obadiah nailed it in post #79
“This is what I have come to learn. Liberals are deeply religious people. They hold a deep, deep abiding faith. They hold an almost unshakable belief in global warming and in government doing honest good through redistributing your wealth. They fully believe that, left to individuals, they are not caring enough, or smart enough to make what they hold as the right decisions. Therefore someone else (liberals) should be in charge of doing it for you. For the good of humanity. That is their faith.
It is a type of faith that they hold to the point of being completely enslaved into dogma. To be a true believer you have to wholly submit and subscribe to the groupthink, and anyone who dares stray from their strict dogma are heretics, fools, and worthy of burning at the stake for their error.
Liberals are some of the most intolerant people you will ever run across. If you dont subscribe to their faith their group will circle the wagons and actively seek to expunge you and crush you to prevent a possible spreading defection of their clan that truth and light could bring.
If you view this in a dispassionate way you can clearly see how totally taken over these people are. They cannot defend their beliefs with any measure of fact. They hate Sarah Palin, because others hate her and so they feel this is the right response for them even they have no way of justifying it. This is exactly how liberals work. And that is exactly how their whole faith-based system works, from globull warming to socialism.”
I don’t expect liberals to change until after they’ve been mugged. And I believe there’s a whole lot of mugging about to happen.
Here’s an interesting blog from an Berkeley ex-lib:

There is simply no discussion.
We bring facts, data and rationale.
They bring anger, raised voices and threats.
The recent statue attack on Prime Minister Berlusconi is irrefutable proof that these people are dangerous.
That's why I pray for Governor Palin all the time.
You and I both know that there are people out there who know they cannot counter her arguments, so they will resort to physical violence instead.
That's why I usually avoid having any type of conversation with known democrats: They are mentally unstable people that aren't worth my time.
