Are Liberals always negative?

I never seem to see a Liberal offering a positive message about anything. Seems they almost always offer negative comments about what is wrong with everything.

Liberals are generally the "discontent class"  I was a democrat right up until a few years ago.  My parents are politicians, both democrats.  I think my father is a Republican inside, he just won't admit it.

I am extremely active in politics.  I was on Al Gore's steering committee.  I left the democratic party because I got sick of the crap.  Listening to them, you'd think this was just a horrible place to live.

Kerry calling for a "regime change" the other day just made me sick.

That was such a "positive" post. Nothing negative there. :rolleyes:

BTW, I get it you must be a liberal! Rarely seen a positive post by you...ever.
Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth -- more than ruin -- more even than death.... Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. ... Bertrand Russell

My god... what's with all the tears lately?



Awww....

Buck up, soldiers!

I take it you were in a cocoon during Clinton's presidency? ;)

You think this is negative? You have no idea what you missed. Punt this back up in a couple of years...

Liberal is a synonym of generous.

Conservative is a synonym for reserved.

As to which one is negative, well that's in the eye of the beholder .

Negative does not necesarily mean bad.

I believe if you avoid buzzwords and metaphor you can convey your message clearly and succinctly .

Liberals are very positive and happy people when they are spending your money for you in the way they know is best.

They are negative and unhappy when they are unable to spend your money for you and they know you are just wasting it.


Conservatives are just happy when somebody is spending money, preferably lots of it. They're very unhappy when there isn't lots of money getting spent by someone.

Not sure if I'm quoting this right, and I don't know who said it, but here goes:

"If a man is 100ft out in the water from a beach and is drowning, a conservitive would throw him 50ft of rope and tell the guy to swim the rest of the 50ft.  A Liberal would toss him 100 ft of rope, but then leave to go perform the next good deed."

No, LDV, I can't.

You see, all is lost and these are the "Final Days". ( I have it on pretty good authority the Sun is about to nova but Ashcroft is keeping it secret.) SARS is actually a US bio-weapon that we surreptitiously tried in China but it has now escaped the testing protocol and the entire world will die from it within the next fortnight. (of course, the Bush controlled CDC can't tell you this.) CIA reports there is actually no oil left anywhere in the world, but they are keeping that secret too; Tenet used to work for Halliburton and he's under administration mind control. What's currently on the high seas is it. There's no food being grown anywhere either, and that's because Bush was elected and the farmer's refused to plant in protest of the Florida vote count.

So, you see........ all is lost. Proof is in the fact that sucicide threads are popping up in the O-Club.

At long last, finally....... YOU are right!  EVERYTHING IS BAD and there's nothing left to live for............







Cya.  :D

hehe, good one Toad. You forgot to mention that the French don't like us anymore. Since the world is ending tomorrow I better finish off that bottle of Talisker tonight. ;)

AKIron, don't panic- the world won't end until two minutes after I win the California Lottery. God told me that in a dream. He said He was looking forward to the look of disappointment on my face as I realize I won't be able to spend my lottery winnings. God hates me- I think He's a MAW.
