I've been dwelling on this issue for a while in my own mind. For simplification, we like to place people in one category or another. Liberal and Conservative serve as quick and convenient categories.
However, just in the short time I've spent on the USMB, I quickly realized how many more shades of political leanings actually exists. Look at the differences b/t DK and Bully or between Bid D and gop_jeff. Although we categorize them as liberals and conservatives, respectively, in reality, there are vast gulfs of differences between how these posters respond to various political, social and religious issues.
This lib vs. con battle works to the detriment of our Republic. It makes us feel as if we have only two sides to choose from. When, in reality, we are much more complex than that and we need political leaders and political discourse that reflects this complexity in voter thought.
Wrong, menewa. It's all actually very simple. Libs just like to obscure their wrongness in needless complexity, to make it seem"more intellectual", like they were taught at college. It's simple. There's a world war on between shariah law and freedom; Which side are you on?
