PD Liberal on the world stage is different then liberal in a democracy. Liberal on world stage means allowing peope to vote, women equal to men, and not treated like cattle. Freedom of expression, movement, worship, and everything else our Founding Fathers left behind for us ... in the US between Republicans and Democrates are merely tiny issues and details. The is not much of a difference between a Rep and a Dem, when compairing them to a member of the Bat'he Party in Iraq, or the Taliban regime.

Mike - I know that. I just wish more American conservatives acted like they knew that. I grew up during the cold war - and at the height of it anyone who floated the idea that liberalism was equal to treason was recognized as a card carrying member of the lunatic fringe. Much of today's MAINSTREAM right regards that as fact without question.

Pd,
You seem not to realize that your Liberal Democrats, although they bill themselves as the 'intellectual elite' in their own minds, are basically emotion-oriented. Look at some of the things they and their sycophants say ("agreeance?"); and you will see that they should be called the emotional dregs.
Why did I respond this way? I'm damned sick and tired of having the intelligence of myself and other Conservatives impugned by people who have absolutely no grasp of facts; but insist on defining everything in emotional terms. People who believe that economics is a zero-sum game, who play off groups of Americans against each other, breed an entire race of voters for their party, and even try to include people from other countries to increase their power. People who ignore the Constitution when it suits them and complain that their guy won the popular vote and should be President in defiance of the methods set up by that Constitution (the Electoral College). People who try to stack the courts with Liberal Activist judges so that they don't have to worry about voters. People who pushed Roe vs Wade through the courts, thereby guaranteeing the murder of millions of infants; but insist on destroying the very fabric of our society 'for the children' (in the case of this war, Iraqi children).
Yet, when a Lib is asked a direct question, the response is almost always the same..."But first, let me say this."; and the qwuestion somehow never gets answered.
Yeah, tell me about the ignorant right. Then explain some of what the super-intelligent left says and does.
