NevarWhat is a Liberal?
August 9th 2008 19:44
What is a Liberal? Well in this post I will try to answer that by what the word means to me. And I know a blanket statement about all Liberals isn’t wise. And of course all Libs are not like this, completely anyway.
A Liberal wants you to be controlled by the government because he/she thinks you are too dumb to make decisions about your life. From the temperature in your house to what you watch on television, to what you listen to on the radio. Liberals feel you are too stupid to make that decision for yourself.
A Liberal wants to keep people from being paid what they should for being successful. They would have no company show a profit in America if they could do so. What money is made, the Libs would give to the poor people. They would never reward but would rather punish initiative.
They scoff at God and anybody who believes in him. It is ok for Muslim Terrorists to attack the United States because we deserve it. But if the Baptists want to have a convention, Libs go all to Hell (if there is such a place).
Liberals want America to go down for being the dominant country in the world for so long. They feel it is other countries time to shine. So what if Communist China has a terrible human rights record? They deserve to be on top of the United States.
Freedom of Speech is a terrible thing to MOST Liberals. They do not want you to listen to talk radio for fear of you agreeing with it.
Often they hate the very military that protects their rights as Americans to complain about the military.
Liberals think you should never ever defend yourself against a criminal. Guns are evil and should not be used to protect your family or property. Guns are on good for criminals to own. Since they have been under educated and oppressed their whole lives. You have too much stuff anyway and should be glad to give it to some poor person with a gun.
And no we can’t execute criminals; if they killed somebody it is ok. It was probably a capitalist pig with too much stuff anyway. It is much better to kill unborn babies than to kill a killer. After all it is a woman’s right to decide if her baby lives or dies. If it were possible to ask the baby’s opinion then the damn little critter would probably be against abortion.
As America gets more liberal every day, the phrase “Going to Hell in a Hand basket” comes to mind. Go ahead vote Democrat in November, and help ruin this once fine nation.
Never has a symbol been so appropriate for a political party

I have previously explained what I believe, as a "liberal", although I am not claiming to speak for all who identify themselves as "liberal".
Really Long Link
It's interesting that at the time of that post SL was willing to engage in conversation-argument. The fact that she fears to do so now is revealing.
Anyway, your viewpoint is always welcomed here.

And that, in a nutshell, is why America is in such deep trouble.

Makes as much sense.
Do you really believe all that crap you wrote about liberals? Or are you just making a bad joke? Because I can seriously tell you, the Bradishes of the world do and I hope (for no other reason than that Jim, who I respect a great deal has decided to share his blog with you), that you don't.

That is putting the right to live for a criminal above that of a fetus. And it makes me sick to be honest.

Abortion: The fetus is not a fully developed human being,. it has no sensory awareness ( I am talking about the first trimester here), does not feel any emotion or have any cognitive functions.
Furthermore, its development will come only at the detriment of another human being- the woman whose body it inhabits. If the woman does not want it and she is forced to carry it to term, then what you have is a situation where the "rights" of an undeveloped 'human' who has no connection or experience of the world are given priority over the rights of a fully developed human being whose life will be irrevocably altered by the fact that she is forced to give birth. In other words, the fetus has no idea what is going on. The woman does, therefore, her life and her wishes should be given priority.
Death Penalty: It's not really about the criminal. The issue is what does it say about us, as a race whereby we can take away the life of a fully developed human being because we THINK we have the authority?? Does that not make us murderers also? What if they are innocent? You must know as well as I do that there are a great deal of people who have been put to death for crimes they did not commit.
Dead men walking know that they are about to die. they have memories and feelings and fears. None of which a fetus has.
There is no comparison.
Isn't it funny how people's minds work in different ways? Because when I think of people such as yourself and Bradish, I think, what hypocrites, how can you call yourself prol-life when you love war and think legal murder is ok?

And I would gladly get rid of the Death Penalty if Abortion went away with it.
However I can see that an unwanted child could be abused and that is a point in favor of abortion. However some may say it is better to be abused than never born. I am not sure of my opinion on that point.
One of my sons is related to a woman who set her baby on fire and burned it to death. So tjhat baby would have been better off aborted than going through that.

I don't think you can equate the Death Penalty with abortion. Terminating a zygote or fetus is not the same thing as the ritualised murder of a sentient human who is fully aware of the fact that they are about to die. That is the key- knowledge and awareness.
And yes, those examples you cited demonstrate that, sometimes. and I stress sometimes, abortion is the best option.

Recently in Australia a man drove his car into a lake, with is three young sons aboard, drowning all of them (on father's of all auspices dates). He was found guilty of murder and the judge declared he did it in order to cause anguish to the boys' mother. Amazing.
I guess the death penalty depends on the State she committed the crime in? Also, her mental capacity at the time?

To be honest, I actually think life imprisonment is a worse penalty than death. Oh there are those few terrifying minutes when they prepare you for death and then kill you, but then the pain is over. Being locked up for years on end with no chance of release, knowing you will never experience freedom again- that is real punishment.
I think its time we see the death penalty for what it is- vengeance, pure and simple.

However I mean in only cut and dried cases where there is no doubt of guilt. I shudder when i read about how DNA now proves innocent people were executed for crimes they didn't \do, years ago.
For some people a life of confinement would be worse than death. But it bothers me to pay for the imprisonment of somebody who will never help society in any way.

About paying for the incarceration of others, I guess there is always the hope of rehabilitation. I know it is uncommon, but sometimes people really do manage to turn their lives around in jail. Maybe I'll go digging up some stats on that too..but right now it's late and i need some sleep....

I don't understand how my son going into the Marines makes ME pro war. I could not prevent it and I did try. But I won't condem him for it you don't have to bash people who go into the military to be anti war.
You libs don't get that part though. Both sons are going into the military, mostly to pay for college.
Comment by Jeff Musall
But to go into the military at this time one has to understand that there is a chance they will become involved in an illegal war. I did four years in the Navy myself and am by no means anti-military. Just anti really bad use of the military...
