Would you like some fois gras pate to go with that slapdown?It always amazes me how liberals ignore facts that flatly disprove their assertions, like the one that authoratarian personalities are not partisan. If the only authoritarian personalities were conservatives then Cuba would be an island paradise because Castro and Che started out as liberals and were fighting for the rights of individuals to be free from oppression, as did Stalin before them. Authoritarianism emanates from all of the political spectrum, which is why it must be watched for and guarded against by anyone who ever gains power.
There really is no such thing as a liberal authoritarian. You need to understand parochial indoctrination. What tenets, values and beliefs would a Joseph Stalin want to 'conserve'...free markets, capitalism, democracy???
While not all conservatives are authoritarians; all highly authoritarian personalities are political conservatives.
Robert Altmeyer
Conservatism is based on latitude, longitude and date of birth.
Me
Bullshit.
Most of the rules laid down regarding smoking, publishing calories in restaurants, etc., have been put out by the left.
Many of those would like to just outlaw fast food, meats, sugar, etc.
If you fail to see that as authoritarian, I feel sorry for you. While not necessarily reflecting your opinion, many liberals do.

I don't know that all those 'rules' can be blamed solely on the left, but blame whoever you wish. There is a BIG difference between authoritarianism and consumer protection and laws that protect humans from carcinogens ...it is called DEATH you moron.

There's always a difference between the police state authoritarianism of the left and that of the right!
When leftist moonbats like Jethro do it, it's for your own good!

Oh really?There's always a difference between the police state authoritarianism of the left and that of the right!

I agree. Police state authoritarianism of the Right involves things like lobbying to do away with bothersome nuisances for the police, such as the 4th Amendment's safeguards against illegal search and seizure, the Sixth Amendment's guarantee of speedy trial and right to counsel, the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment, the Miranda decision, expansion of the death penalty to include crimes other than capital murder, putting religion into politics and forcing religious beliefs on others, getting government into the bedroom - that kind of stuff.
Police state authoritarianism of the Left involves anything that a Democratic government does which the Right doesn't like.

Do yourself a favor. Before you embarrass yourself any further, read up on authoritarianism.
I would first suggest that you get a copy of Altmeyer's studies and read it. If wading through scientific language is too much for you, the topic is covered quite well in John Dean's book, "Conservatives Without Conscience."
Robert Altmeyer's quote is laughable in it's inability to match or even resemble slightly from a distance or with trick lighting and props, anything like reality.There really is no such thing as a liberal authoritarian.
Absolutely. The terms are mutually exclusive.
While not all conservatives are authoritarians; all highly authoritarian personalities are political conservatives.

Consumer protection is another name for liberal authoritarianism.
I do not need to be protected from my decisions and choices, and the authoritarians who think I do are all liberals.

Death penalty convictions should be carried out inside of 2 years. If you can't find something new by then, no sense in dawdling. Even if the innocent accidentally sentenced to death row is 2 in 10,000, I'm still for it.
You pontificate and moralize how executing 'some' innocent human beings is just the cost of justice for society and the victim's families. But IS IT? What comfort would it be to a family having to live with the death of their loved one, an innocent victim of crime AND the death of another family's innocent loved one? What about the ability to 'sleep at night' for the jurors that sent an innocent person to their death?
AND what about the consequences Fitz. You are BIG on punishment and swift justice. Killing an innocent human being is murder. WHO pays for that crime when the State murders an innocent person, you?...the Governor? What about the families of THOSE innocent victims YOU have created? If one of my family members murdered someone, I could find a way to accept their consequences. But if my family member were innocent and executed, I would now be a victim you righteously say you are protecting.
No system of justice is perfect. Secondly, executing the wrong person is an accident. Not murder. Executions are a punishment for a crime.
Musta hit Jethro pretty close to the mark to get him all riled up like that, QW!
Good job, man.
