Conservative vs Liberal

Andrew,

I didn't try to generalize and lump people into categories anymore than you did. Take a look at the thread, you picked extreme examples in almost every case.

There's almost nobody who thinks abortion shouldn't be an option for rape and incest victims, yet you trot out that tired old liberal talking point. Yes, there are far right people who don't believe there should be abortions for any reason, but there's a hell of a lot more liberals who want access to abortions so easy it can be a form of birth control. The libs ultimate offering to the supreme court, Ginsberg was the sole voter FOR partial birth abortions.

All I can say about Christian prayers in government buildings is it worked fine for America the first 150 years till liberals began to enlighten us all. Do you think all the U.S. currency with "In God We Trust" printed on it should be recalled? Or should we just print several versions like the recent run of state quarters? Can't wait to collect my "In'shalah" dollar bill.

I'm no expert on climate change, or anything else for that matter.

But if it's such solid science, maybe YOU can explain for the rest of us how it was called 'global warming' up until we had some cold weather and Al and his buddies looked like fools. All of a sudden it became a 'climate change' problem and the federal government is looking to get into the carbon credit business. While you're at it enlighten us how a 'terrorist act' suddenly became a 'man made disaster', or the war on terror became an 'interdiction'.

These questions are far too deep for a backward old foaming at the mouth conservative, I beg your indulgence.

Yep, and fully stated that I was doing so. Like I said, trying to lump people as "liberal" or "conservative" is a mistake. I think it is dishonest to show an extreme example, and then claim that all people who can be considered "liberal" or "conservative" share those views (as in Grumpy's original post). I think I was pretty clear in my examples to note that those were the extremes I was talking about and at the same time taking a shot at the original post.

Except in extreme cases (like when the mother's life is at risk), I do not agree with that. If you have to have an abortion, do it early.

Had not heard of those. Honestly, I don't care one way or the other if "in god we trust" is left on money or removed.

Me either. My point is that many people who have not looked at the data, and would not know what to do with the data if they had it in front of them, seem to want to claim its all a hoax or its all 100% correct. Plenty of internet experts out there. This is one of the problems with making such things political. You have people who have no business making decisions doing so based on little to no good data at all.

You know what, we need to fish sometime. I know MHall was much easier to tolerate after he and I fished together :p (I'm sure he feels the reverse is true too!).

We definitely need to wet a hook sometime, we'd get along just fine. I bet ole Mark would go fishing with you right now if you called.

BTW, had a killer day on Ky yesterday, me and my partner C and R'd prolly 80 bass in 8 hours. A smallie over 4 almost pulled my partner overboard, and I lucked into a LM over 5 for our 2 best fish. Weighed in a 5 fish limit just shy of 18 lbs. Another team had an 8 pound pig of a LM anchoring their sack. Been a heck of spring so far.

Let me know if you are going to be in the Cumberland area and we'll set something up. Might even get Mark involved, that way we can go hit all his honey holes and beat on his fish for a while :D
