About half the people are conservatives, the other half liberals.
There is a saying that I find more and more true all the time.
If you want to anger a conservative, tell him a lie.
If you want to anger a liberal, tell him the truth.
I believe that there is a fundamental difference in thinking between liberals and conservatives, that being, that conservatives view the world by truths, of whats right and wrong. Liberals on the other hand view whats right and wrong on how they view the world.
They approach life, not from a set moral foundation, but how they want life to be, and thereby develop their "moral compass" from that. The real problem with that amongst liberals, is that allows EVERYBODYto view life differently, allowing EVERYBODY to have a different "moral compass". In other words, if everybody was a liberal, everybody would have a different and thus OPPOSING "moral compass", thus chaos.
Just look at the politically correct world.
If everybody would start with truth and facts first, calibrating their "moral compass", then everybody going the same way wouldn't be so hard.
Or another way to state it is, Liberals are guided by their emotions, of how they want the world and life to be. Their emotions control them.
Conservatives look to the world around them and base their emotions by facts. They control their emotions.
That is why liberals are so easily led by their "leaders". Their leaders feed their emotions, thus controlling them. Conservatives on the other hand, though we can react emotionally, stand back and look for truth then bring our emotions into alignment.
Its funny, liberals accuse conservatives as being sheep, and yet its liberals, enslaved to their emotions, that are led about.
Liberals love to attack Rushand that we blindly follow him. Personally, I might hear him once a month or 2. BUT...but if Rush suddenly started spewing stupidity and obvious lies, he'd lose his following almost overnight.
And yet liberals will defend their leaders when it becomes obvious they are lying.
Why???
Because their leaders conform to their world view, thus everything else to a liberal is a lie.
That's the liberal sheep you're talking about. Liberal leaders are guided by their greed. And they're NOT nice people. Did you see the 'oh so rude' Mr. Biden? Was he every old man know-it-all who tries to ruin every Christmas holiday dinner? Trust me - they're all like that - they would betray their mothers to get ahead, lie, cover up murders and rapes... it's all about power and control for that side.
