Powerman said:We have conservatives all over the place who are supporting hardcore smoking bans. We have a president who has the most liberal spending policy of anyone I've ever seen. Also a conservative president would never pass CFR. The thing is you guys see an R or a D next to a name and think you know who is running the country.
Liberalism is running rampant right now on capital hill and they've got you all fooled into thinking it isn't
True.
The entire political spectrum in America has, in the past half-century, moved left. Way left.
Self-described liberals or Democrats of 1950 would not have supported open borders, high spending, confiscatory tax rates, the welfare state, affirmative action, "civil rights" beyond ACTUAL equal protection, and so on. They most CERTAINLY would not have supported gay marriage, open homosexuality, high divorce rates, and porn on TV. Basically they supported unions, some progressive taxation... i.e., a break for the working man. Sounds OK to me. These are the Democrats who would have FAINTED to see someone burn an American flag. No, scratch that. These Democrats would have kicked your ass if you did that.
Today's Democrats would CHEER burning the American flag.
As for how liberal Republicans have become, I could go on for days. Mostly it involves sucking up to minority groups. So what's all this say about America? I have my thoughts, but the fact of it can't be denied.
