Andrew Klavan: The Facts of Life for Liberals

bronzenrule Says:

Apr 26, 2012 - That's right, young liberals grow up to be old conservatives like those who sponsored and passed the Patriot Act, the NDAA, and are attempting to pass laws that will turn the internet into a virtual police state - this, I believe, is called necrosis, the chill of death and fear that follows which has conservatives baby-proofing the world with their intrusive and paralyzing laws.

bronzenrule Says:

Apr 26, 2012 - Conservatives have always talked a good game; sensible and no-nonsense- but like every dreamer who's offered up a simple plan, they've time after time failed to deliver, because, folks, it's a pipe dream they're selling; for in actual reality, they walk and talk like everyone else, which sooner or later is brought home, and at times, to their own shock; not so surprising when their conservatism is similar to the religion most of them worship that promises them pretty much the same pie in the sky

PRINCECOUNTYBEATS Says:

Apr 27, 2012 - thats like saying your the same as a retarded chimp, is that true?

canufi Says:

Apr 29, 2012 - Conservatives believe in big government. Not the same big government as liberals. It's in the sky. God is the government. Churches and bibles dictate what we can and cannot do. Abortions are wrong because the government in the sky said so. Birth control is wrong because the government in the sky said so.

canufi Says:

Apr 29, 2012 - conservatives are liberal (open) about guns. Liberals are conservative about religion, they want to conserve all religions from all cultures.... Liberals and conservatives are a logical idiocy (paradox). Conservatives do not whish to conserve the environment.... Logical idiocy. The words liberal and conservative are meaningless buzzwords.

ShamanMcLamie Says:

Apr 30, 2012 - That is what we call extensive government. There was a whole lecture how the institutions of extensive government were brought down by Classical Liberal who believed in free markets. Then Classical Liberalism was usurped by Socialism(Big Government.) the reincarnation of the church driven extensive government.

canufi Says:

Apr 30, 2012 - Indeed, Milton Friedman called himself a classic liberal. To me, liberal means free. The liberals are not free, they are pro-restriction. It's a shame the word liberal and conservative no longer have any meaning. conservatives, for example, wish not to conserve the environment.

TheReapersSon Says:

May 1, 2012 - The RepubliCONS in the game today are not like the Republicans of old. The racist Democrats of yesterday are still around; they just hide their racism a bit better and offer more free handouts.

Xenkenito Says:

May 1, 2012 - nailed it on the head bro .

noledgewise1 Says:

May 2, 2012 - What will the United States eventually tell it's creditors, like China? GO FUCK YOURSELF!!!٩(-̮̮̃•̃).

321xanatos Says:

May 6, 2012 - Yes, because they finally find out who pays for everything.

clairey165 Says:

May 7, 2012 - Well, that's a bigoted sweep.Hypocrisy, anyone?

canufi Says:

May 7, 2012 - it's not bigoted, it's a fair analysis of conservatism - in canada there are people like Stockwell Day who thinks the earth is 6000 years old and when these people meet up with the Pope, they actually think the Pope has credibility.

canufi Says:

May 7, 2012 - Classic liberals are not conservatives, classic liberals are libertarians who believe in liberty.

AquaPhoenix2006 Says:

May 10, 2012 - So basically having no money means we're fucked 0.o?

AlaskaFinal Says:

May 14, 2012 - To be fair, it was usurped by Progressivism, who sought to address the problem of Crony Capitalism.They wanted a top-down, streamlined Government to address a top-down, streamlined economy.The irony now is that modern progressive seek to create crony capitalism, just in different areas.

Marcara081 Says:

May 16, 2012 - You sir, are misinformed. Here's a progressive website trying to destroy crony capitalism using a PAC: wolf-pac.comAnd here's a channel where they expose crony capitalism every chance they get and hold Obama accountable for his part in it.The Young Turks

AlaskaFinal Says:

May 16, 2012 - "You sir, are misinformed"No, I didn't say "all", it's glad to see at least some of you stick to a principle, but those who declare themselves progressives like Hilary Clinton and Al Gore have been anything but.

dilt4 Says:

May 19, 2012 - I believe you're mixing up being a liberal with being an idiot.

daeglan Says:

May 28, 2012 - My only comment is that money is not only Desire. It is also ones labor sweat and effort distilled into something that can be traded with others..

otm3904 Says:

May 28, 2012 - They are the same thing.

dilt4 Says:

May 28, 2012 - People don't become liberals as they age, the ignorant who have no foundation in their beliefs move from one socially acceptable political ideal to another.

otm3904 Says:

May 28, 2012 - Why do we now call fascist economics crony capitalism? Private ownership of property with massive government taxation and regulation is fascist. What's being practiced in the US and China today is no different from the economics of Nazi Germany under Hitler.

stanparrish1 Says:

May 29, 2012 - We need more grownup to liberal discussions on the facts of life.
