And so isn't allowing a guy with the most destructive policies win over a guy whose policies are less destructive. I don't like Romney. But, I dislike Obama even more. I don't see anyone out there that will get even 2% of the vote. That REALLY brings about change voting for a guy who's going to lose before you even get to the voting booth.

I'd be happy to vote for the "ideal" candidate. But, I'm not going to give Obummer an easy victory in the meantime.

 

6 reasons why liberals dont understand the world.

1) Liberalism creates a feedback loop. It is usually impossible for a non-liberal to change a liberal's mind about political issues because liberalism works like so: only liberals are credible sources of information. How do you know someone's liberal? He espouses liberal doctrine. So, no matter how plausible what you say may be, it will be ignored if you're not a liberal and if you are a liberal, of course, you probably agree with liberal views. This sort of close-mindedness makes liberals nearly impervious to any information that might undermine their beliefs.

2) Liberals emphasize feeling superior, not superior results. Liberalism is all about appearances, not outcomes. What matters to liberals is how a program makes them FEEL about themselves, not whether it works or not. a program like Headstart, which sounds good because it's designed to help children read, makes liberals feel good about themselves, even though the program doesn't work and wastes billions. A ban on DDT makes liberals feel good about themselves because they're "protecting the environment" even though millions of people have died as a result. For liberals, it's not what a program does in the real world; it's about whether they feel better about themselves for supporting it.

3) Liberals are big believers in moral relativism. This spins them round and round because if the only thing that's wrong is saying that there's an absolute moral code, then you lose your ability to tell cause from effect, good from bad, and right from wrong. Taking being non-judgmental to the level that liberals do leaves them paralyzed, pondering "why they hate us" because they feel incapable of saying, “That's wrong," and doing something about it. If you're against firm standards and condemning immoral behavior, then your moral compass won’t work and you’ll also be for immorality, as well as societal and cultural decay by default.

4) Liberals tend to view people as parts of groups, not individuals. One of the prejudices of liberalism is that they see everyone as part of a group, not as an individual. This can lead to rather bizarre disparities when say, a man from a group that they consider to be powerless, impoverished victims becomes the leader of the free world -- and he's challenged by a group of lower middle class white people who've banded together because individually they're powerless. If you listen to the liberal rhetoric, you might think Barack Obama was a black Republican being surrounded by a KKK lynching party 100 years ago -- as opposed to the single most powerful man in America abusing the authority of his office to attack ordinary Tea Partiers who have the audacity to speak the truth to power for the good of their country.

5) Liberals take a dim view of personal responsibility. Who's at fault if a criminal commits a crime? The criminal or society? If someone creates a business and becomes a millionaire, is that the result of hard work and talent or luck? If you're dirt poor, starving, and haven't worked in 5 years, is that a personal failing or a failure of the state? Conservatives would tend to say the former in each case, while liberals would tend to say the latter. But when you disconnect what an individual does from the results that happen in his life, it's very difficult to understand cause and effect in people's lives.

6) Liberals give themselves far too much credit just for being liberal. To many liberals, all one needs to do to be wise, intelligent, compassionate, open minded, and sensitive is to BE LIBERAL. In other words, many of the good things about a person spring not from his actions, but from the ideology he holds. This has an obvious appeal. You can be a diehard misogynist, but plausibly call yourself a feminist, hate blacks, but accuse others of racism, have a subpar IQ and be an intellectual, give nothing to charity and be compassionate, etc., etc., and all you have to do is call yourself a liberal. It's a shortcut to virtue much like the corrupt old idea of religious indulgences. Why live a life of virtue when you could live a sinful life and buy your way into heaven? If you're a liberal, why actually live a life of virtue when you can merely call yourself a liberal and get credit for being virtuous, even when you've done nothing to earn it?

 

This is an explanation of Presidential campaigns of the past 20 yrs. Not one of these morons have done anything for the Constitution. Little by little like a parasite our rights are being eroded. Each one of them has had a hand including Reagan, in where we are today.

People were having these same conversations when Clinton was on his way out and look where that got us.

 

That's a catchy slogan but it doesn't mean your man will win.

G W wasn't the best president but was tons better than either Al Gore or John Kerry. And his Supreme Court picks haven't done too bad a job compared to the liberal loonies picked by Clinton, H W, and even Reagan's moderate at best picks. If Al Gore or Kerry had got elected the Supreme Court would like a who's who of ACLU nutjobs.

 

It's amazing someone who thinks they have a firm grip on the political pulse can't figure out a simple math equation on voting.

Thank you to our public school system.

 

Anyone think IF a miracle were to happen and somehow a third party candidate got the popular vote, they'd still make it through the electoral college?

Or are they still teaching kids that your vote really counts for president?

Being conservative in Massachusetts, I am very familiar with flushing my votes down the drain.

 

Might as well vote for Gary Coleman.

 

I'm just trying to effect real change. Romney or Obama will do neither. It's a vote for none of the above, not one or the other.
