Seriously, we'd do pretty good to enact some Socialist policies...Socialism is a buzzword for Communism in this country.

9. Yes, all too often
However, it's usually the self-identified "progressives" or "lefties" who make me want to slam my head in a car door. Insisting that one is a "progressive" rather than a "liberal" is an almost surefire sign of sanctimonious pomposity.

25. well, i tend to be a pragmatist rather than an ideologue...so i know that really pisses off some...
also, i'm more of a centrist on a lot of issues, and i think MIHOPer's should seek professional help.

Edited on Sun Aug-03-08 06:55 PM by doc03
Take our energy problem for instance, the ones that would stop us from drilling for oil or gas anywhere, they would stop all mining, they are against nuclear power and coal. They are against cutting down trees yet if you built a house with steel or any other alternative they would want to shut down that industry for some reason. If someone would kill another person on CNN in prime-time with the whole world watching they would think he could be rehabilitated. The ones that are against hunting yet they can sit down to a steak taken from a cow that was killed with blow from sledge hammer or a shot from a .22 between the eyes.

should EVER be released from prison. The stupidity of it astounds me.

are as bad (if not worse) than extreme righties.

34. Yes, exactly
The self-righteous arrogance and sanctimony make them infinitely more irritating. At least rightwingers are typically aware of the fact that they're ignorant and provincial, and proud of it (at least the ones I know are). They don't pretend to be sophisticated. But the extreme lefties, who parade around spouting third-rate Marxist drivel as if it were some magnificent insight that only they have alighted upon, as if they are the only people in the world who have ever read Noam Chomsky and imagine themselves intellectually superior for having done so - :banghead:

32. Every time I try to make a point to a Republican
they always bring up an example of some extreme liberal position on it. I think some of us on the extreme left of everything just as much as Limbaugh and Hannity can share the blame for making liberal into a dirty word.

The most common thing that drives me insane is liberals just plain old IGNORING issues if they can't find some way to blame George W. Bush for the problem. (For example: The Cambodia-Thailand thing. IT MATTERS, PEOPLE!)

20. my god, yes
I once had to sit uncomfortably during a class debating energy policy as my group leader that day explained that nuclear power is the absolute worst polluter and must never be used... I did murmur to her that coal might be just the slightest bit worse and maybe a bigger issue, but had to generally let her lead my side's talking points.

my tongue was pretty sore and bloody when I left.

stupidity knows no political loyalty.

There are a few on here who as soon as I see their SN, I know we are in for some idiotic statement.

Like the guy who actually wrote he doesn't care specifically about American workers, and if illegal immigrants will do their job for less, they have a right to them.
