Howdy,
After voting, there are now three liberals on ClubCobra!
The thing about is that I consider myself a Liberal but my definition of what a liberal is and what most of the peeps on CC think of as a liberial is totally different.
Some with conservative.
I also thought that someone that was a conservative was conservative with of all things, money.
Look at how much the size of the gov't and the deficit grew under Bush/Chaney/Haliburton and a conservative Republican controlled congress.
People like Feinstein, Boxer, and a bunch of other nut jobs from mainly Kaliformia, are not true liberials. They are Socialist. There isn't anything that is Liberial about them in my definition of what a Liberial really is.
To me, a Liberial is someone that believes in every word of the Constitution, the Declareration and the Bill of Rights. All ten of the Bill of Rights, not just the ones you like or do not like.
Am a huge gun nut! Huge! I have a range at my house and I shoot almost everyday. For some reason, most peepss that claim to be Liberials are anti-gun. This does not make any sense to me because what of being a liberial is that you are supposed to be liberial, as in open minded, with your thinking and in your interpretation of the Constitution, the Declareration and the Bill of Rights.
Like the 2nd Amendment: " A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
I do not see how a person can say that they are open minded and still read the 2nd Amendment and believe that I do not have the right to own a gun!
Anyway, at the same time I think most conservatives are full of crap too.
The conservatives had controll of Congress from 1-97 until 1-07, had controll of the WH from 1-01 until 01-09, and the SCOTUS during much of this time, and still do, so, why, since conservatives are so pro gun and anti abortion, did they not remove most of the federal gun laws like the Brady Law? And why didn't they make abortions illegal. Heck, during this time the Dems/liberials did not have enogh power to fix a jay walking ticket so the Repubs/conservatives could have done, and did, anything they wanted to do.
Just my $.02.
Paul

I am politically conservative; however, if you're pouring me a beer then I'm liberal.

Gotta help them folks out a bit...even things out.
Next, conservatives (based on the last 12 months of posting) will be charged a fee to post in the Lounge, with monies collected to be used for providing liberal with a spell and grammar check.

ZRAY, I'm with you. Political terms change over time, sometimes in very short times, and most are meaninglessly broad. Choosing and defending one or the other has more to do with the political polarization of recent years than any real political stance.
I'll have a reasonable political discussion with anyone if it stays on issues and fact. When it declines into dogma, sweeping generalizations of dubious accuracy, hearsay (especially radio-show hearsay) and automatic assumptions that all [insert political tag here] believe the same fixed slate of things... I'll bow out and go talk with grown-ups.
It's time to burn all the labels and start over with facts.
I find it interesting that the polling is running so strongly liberal (so far). I've spent time in and out of the Mustang groups, which seem to run about 19 out of 20 not just conservative but tooth-grinding rant-radio righties. I suspect there's a socio-economic factor at work...
