Scientists Find 'Liberal Gene'

"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are." Anaïs Nin


This is interesting on a great number of levels. Consider the conservative position on gays or crime. Are all actions determined by genes? Is personality a given? If so then morality becomes a tossup. I do think there are tendencies and like all things human we are tied to a body, a brain, a mind, and a cultural and educational experience, out of all those things form us, we grow or we die in all ways.


'Conservative thought will be banned under the new Healthcare reform act as so much negativity. greed, and self centered narcissism only leads to depression and grouchy, lined faces, and furthermore is in opposition to the general welfare clause of the constitution. Due to the widespread prevalence of Dunning–Kruger effect among conservatives and republicans, a healthcare proviso has been amended to the original bill. Don't worry be happy.' midcan5

The Political Brain by Drew Westen


"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations." Anais Nin

I knew Liberals were born fucked up!!! LOL!

Study conducted by researchers at UCSD, Harvard
Researchers have determined that genetics could matter when it comes to some adults' political leanings.

According to scientists at UC San Diego and Harvard University, "ideology is affected not just by social factors, but also by a dopamine receptor gene called DRD4." That and how many friends you had during high school.

Is this the same gene that causes people to want to steal from others? That would go a long way toward explaining the Democrats proclivity for redistributionism. Maybe we need to breed liberals out of the gene pool.

The Bush tax cut was 52% to the top 1%, thereby moving the countries economic burden to the middle class. This is called a classic redistribution of wealth from the middle class to the top 1%.

Now you would think the top 1% would support a country that made them rich. Even when very few go into the military to protect the country that gave them so much.

Maybe the right is correct. Maybe these rich people are actually demiGods and should be supported in any way possible. Maybe we should "pray" to them?

You probably agree with the idea of a "master race" and eugenics, don't you?

Go ahead and raise taxes on the top 1 percent, I support it. I wouldnt mind seeing the rich people in this country taken down a peg or two, I abhor this extreme accumulation of wealth. But let's take that money and use it to balance the budget, not hand it out to people who have done nothing to earn it. Taxing one class of people and then spending it to support another class, in other words business as usual, is not going to avoid the economic collapse that we are heading towards. The Tea Party has a plan to address the problem, its called cutting spending. All the Democrats want to do is tax and resitribute wealth, even though it means going trillions into debt.
