Difference Between Liberals and Conservatives
I am chanel and I approve this message.
I never use the words Democrats and Republicans. Its Liberals and Americans."
And that is what the Republicans have been so good at. Making Democrats/Liberals unAmerican. Saying the President consorts with terrorists and all kinds of terrible and odious charges we have heard mentioned too many times.
and yet,
It's the Republicans who many say they want to secede from the Union.
It's the Republicans who want to stand in the way of civil rights.
It's the Republicans who block the funding of soldiers overseas and use them for political reasons.
Republicans want to end social security and have no plan to take care of the elderly. What is that telling us what we should do with the elderly?
It's the Republicans who don't want to spend money on America's infrastructure even though 70,000 bridges have been named "unsafe".
It's the Republicans who want to bring religion into government (perhaps similar to the Iranian style of government?.
And yet, somehow, the Republicans have convinced the majority of Americans, that they are somehow "patriotic". Odd, truly odd.
I think I now understand where you're coming from. In 'rdean world', there are two types of people. Liberals (who you think are all democrats), and everyone else (who you think are all republicans).
