Liberals aren’t evil. Its not like Obama got into office and set onto his master-plan to screw things up.

Liberals are misguided in their philosophy; as such its fundamentally wrong. That’s WHY things are screwed up.

The ‘Enlighted Liberal’ has historically been the first casualty of “reformation”. One needs to look no farther than Cambodia for evidence of that.

NEVER in the history of the world has the intellectual elite survived a political purging; they’re the first to be executed after succesful revolting by the ‘hoi polloi’

Quite frankly, it is my daily prayer that the American electorate is not so stupid to repeat its mistake of 2008. The United States (as a republic) CAN survive the chief usurper of the Oval Office, but what the United States of America can NOT survive: an electorate SO stupid to actually give a politician such as Obama - along with the baggage known and unknown - the reigns of government.

“The United States (as a republic) CAN survive the chief usurper of the Oval Office, but what the United States of America can NOT survive: an electorate SO stupid to actually give a politician such as Obama - along with the baggage known and unknown - the reigns of government.”

Done, right? Didn’t we already do that?

Or are you saying that if we are dumb enough to DO IT YET AGAIN, then we deserve to die?

I almost agree.

Clinton gave us Welfare Reform. Nixon gave us the EPA. Romney gave us Obamacare, and McCain begat Obama. Bush FAILED on immigration (big time).

This is the Tea Party’s beef, and I buy it in total. Just because there is an R by the name doesn’t mean they grasp the basic economics of something as simple to get as national sovereignty? How many adults are really left in the room when you have to explain it to the GOP as if they are four years old.

In modern parlance, the ‘enlightened liberal’ is now basically the same as a modern moderate, yes?

The Reagan Democrat, the Obama Independent (the Godmother of one of my kids voted for Bush, W, then voted against McCain for Obama - works high up at Russell Investments).

It’s hard for me to work with the adjective ‘enlightened’ when most people think the words ‘separation of church and state’ actually appear in the Constitution.

Many are opposed to abortion on moral grounds, and not because it was an in-your-face violation of the 9th and 10th amendments by SCOTUS in another one of their culturally scarring blunders.

If Jefferson were around, he’d have wondered what the hell we are doing not wrecking what’s now in place and starting over.

You are right, however, liberals aren’t evil. Liberals simply adhere to a dogma that is at its base deeply immoral, which is to say, “What’s mine is mine, and what’s yours is mine as well if you have more than I do.”

Couple that with a tax code carefully crafted to foment such a culture. It’s not a stretch to pity the sinner here but hate the people who KNOW its wrong and are working to make things worse.

Oh, really???

a) Liberals in the traditional sense aren’t evil. But in this day and time, those who are called Liberals are now, in reality, Progressives and Marxists or worse. And they ARE evil;

b) BHO is beyond both Liberal AND Progressive. He always had a mission to take this country down - when you study his past, his background and all those with whom he’s surrounded himself throughout his life, it’s understandable and obvious in his words and deeds.

Americans only elected Obama to placate the spoiled minorities and prevent a riot. This time, come Hell or high water, Obama will be thrown out and there are too many Americans starving in the streets for anyone to care about whether or not their homes get burned. Too many have lost homes and don’t have anything to lose. No one knew how bad it would get and stay under Obama and no one (except the majority of us) thought that America’s prestige would end up plummeting the way it would after his election. No one thought that Obama would pull the things he has and no one thought he would act as disgracefully as he has (inviting Beyonce and Jay-Z to sit in the Situation Room) and no one dreamed that a President would blow as much money as he has on his own pleasure and enjoyment. Along wiht that of his wifey. Even Clinton didn’t pull half the stuff that Obama has, or destroy the economy the way he has.

Liberals fall into two categories. They’re either ignorant (uninformed) and misguided or evil and corrupt.
