10) "I would never vote for a warmonger. For the sake of future generations, we must seek peace instead of provoking conflict."
9) "All of this anti-Russia hysteria-- this looking for dangerous subversives under every bed-- is silly and embarrassing. Really, it's nothing more than a politically-motivated witch hunt. Knock it off, already!"
8) "I may disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
7) "Good for her for refusing to wear the hijab. Any woman who refuses to submit to oppressive male chauvinist customs is a hero of mine!"
6) "I'm not saying that we shouldn't be wary of Russia ... but I'm MUCH more frightened by what our OWN government is capable of doing."
5) "If you don't like a book, or a movie, or a website, or a speech don't try to get it banned, and don't harass the people who created or authored this material you find offensive... just read or watch something else! We do have a little thing called the 'First Amendment, ya know!"
4) "The CIA is a monstrous organization... do you know some of the things that they have a history of doing? I would never take their word for anything, or trust them in any way... they're criminals."
3) "Why is the United States always propping up brutal dictatorships, and engaging in shady deals with murderous regimes? I would never support a candidate if I found out that he or she was in bed with thugs like the Saudis or ISIS."
2) "If a military coup were launched to overthrow a legally-elected president, this would be a terrible and calamitous event, signalling an end to all of the values that we hold dear as a nation."
1) "We should teach our young people to be open-minded, and to respectfully consider points of view which may differ from their own."

"I hate Lincoln because he wants to free the slaves!"

That's traditional liberalism. We are dealing with the ALT-Left, SJW after birth of the me generation.
The left cared so much about winning elections that they forgot to teach their actual principles to their young.

The left are no longer qualified to call themselves liberal.
Fascist is a much more accurate description.

Thats pretty rich considering that yall have elected the biggest liar and hypocrite in US history, and the GOP is flipping 180 from past "conservative values" to match his campaign promises on quite a few issues.

The American "liberal" supports a police state, rigged elections, compulsory health insurance, discriminatory taxation, and selective law enforcement.

quote:incorrect but good try. Democrats weren't always liberals. Democrats became liberals when their party was hijacked by marxists/socialists. People need to understand that "liberalism" is a euphemism for socialism which is a euphemism for marxism.

Now, Liberals try to force their beliefs onto everyone by hate, intimidation, and violence.

This really isn't new. Ayn Rand called the left Totalitarian over 50 years ago.

This is so dumb.
quote:
supports a police state
Conservative's always run as "law and order" candidates
quote:
rigged elections
Russian interference doesn't count?
quote:
compulsory health insurance
The new GOP Health care bill supports this as well.
quote:
discriminatory taxation
Isn't Trump for this?
quote:
selective law enforcement
You just described the GOP to a tee.

Wrong.
The Democratic party became liberal when they stole Progressivism from Republican Teddy Roosevelt for the 1912 election. The move effectively grabbed the progressive wing of the Republican party which was splintering due to Roosevelt's losing the primary and forming his own party.
Liberalism and progressivism both started in the Republican party with Lincoln and Roosevelt respectively.

So what you're saying is, like once vibrant cities and neighborhoods, Democrats took these ideas as their own and turned them to absolute dog shite?

I'd rather a president put aside typical bullshite values and focus on his campaign promises

You contradicted yourself. If he was a liar and a hypocrite, he wouldn't be keeping his campaign promises. Stop trying to have a pissing match. And this thread wasn't even about trump, so do us a favor and one never post again and two shut off your internet. You are clearly to ignorant and dumb to use it.

Law,and order isn't necessarily a police state. Both groups love the enforcement arm of big government.
