http://finance.yahoo.com/news/most-americans-back-buffett-tax-215729246.html this reminded me of jwhop's statement that 60% of americans self-define as conservatives...i wonder if they define conservative the same way he does? IP: Logged |

Yeah but Americans..when asked...as I showed you....self identify as conservative to the tune of about 60% of the population. Decade, after decade, after decade.How stupid could leftists..and especially the Marxist O'Bomber really be to think they're going to take a nation of mostly conservatives and turn them into Socialists. Not happening. O'Bomber is hitting new lows in polling as Americans find out exactly who and what O'Bomber..and the Socialist and Communist jerks he brought into his administration really are. His attempt ot use the "Occupiers" blew up in his face and now, the phony issue of women's health overriding the 1st Amendment has blown up in his face. Gas prices and no drill anywhere policies are blowing up in his face. O'BomberCare and his Cap and Tax energy plan blew up in his face too. Everything O'Bomber touches turns to pure crap right in his hands. Surely, there has never been a more stupid, incompetent, bungling idiot in the Oval Office. IP: Logged |

Funny because this country in 2008 (what a year) voted for B. Obama over J. McCain into that oval office. Oops I guess Americans aren't as conservative as you assumed. We can consider the circumstances of that vote, however the facts speak for themselves. Times have changed Jwhop. And I'm not afraid to self identify myself as a Independent thinker. Not a leftist, or conservative, or socialist. This country is changing, what was is simply no more and thank goodness. I'm just counting down the days till November. IP: Logged |

Yep Randall! You're the one...katatonic....who brought up "radical conservatives". All I asked was for a definition...and some examples. If your mouth isn't connected to your brain..then just say so and I'll omit asking you questions about "your definitions".

Hmmmm, how quickly leftists forget...or simply want to wipe the memory of the 2010 elections out of their minds.Because of the idiot, Barack Hussein O'Bomber, Republicans picked up the most seats in the US House in about 70 years. Most of those who went home...demoscats...not to return to Congress...supported O'BomberCare and all the other leftist insanity put forth by O'Bomber, Pee-Lousy and Hairy Reid. Further, Republicans picked up 6 US Senate Seats...because of O'Bomber, O'BomberCare, O'Bomber Cap and Trade, O'Bomber Union Card Check and a host of other leftist wet dreams which were enacted or attempted to be enacted by Senate demoscats. Yes, we can hardly wait until November...when demoscats will have to defend 23 more Senate Seats compared to a relative few Republican seats up for reelection in the Senate. No matter how much O'Bomber and congressional demoscats lie and try to change the subject about what they've done to the economy, oil prices and just about every other attack on Americans, America, American institutions and religious rights; this coming election is going to be all about the idiot O'Bomber and the morons demoscats in the House and Senate who attempted to march America off a cliff. I'd say good luck, but that would be a lie and lies are not necessary in any event, when talking about the idiocy of O'Bomber and his Socialist Comrades in Congress. IP: Logged |

well randall, you could as easily be a socialist as anything else you care to CALL YOURSELF. when answering polls lots of people MISidentify themselves. i have heard people claim to be all manner of things they didn't appear to be...the point of that statement was a) jwhop is sure i am a "leftist" because i point out the holes in his assumptions and b) claiming that people self-identify as conservatives is a wholly empty declaration because different people define conservative/socialist/centrist/libertarian in different ways. actually i don't identify with any party or persuasion. i guess that makes me an "independent"?!!

I see there are still some among us for whom words have no fixed meanings.They just make up their definitions for words as they go along. IP: Logged |

"yes we are living in the tower of babel. so how do YOU define conservative?"..katatonicI asked you first katatonic and you...apparently can't come up with an answer for the term you used.."radical conservatives". If you can't define the term, why are you using it? IP: Logged |

Which is why I started the other thread Kat ( I am pretty sure you knew that, ) however what people self identify with is of import.too bad all of the lurkers failed to weigh in. It is assumed that because this is an astrology site first, that most are lefties... I am not as certain of that as others are. ------------------ I like what another celebrity said, no, not Sister Sarah. We need more civil disobedience...Alec Baldwin IP: Logged |
