Rule, liberals are tolerant of other people's political beliefs, you are clearly not tolerant or a liberal.
Pops, you might be being just a tiny bit unfair there. I'm a tad puzzled by the gap between the packaging and the product in your case too.
I do appreciate you hold quite progressive views on some issues. Overall tho, the difference between your self-description and your stated views seems as wide as the Atlantic Ocean to me too.
Tweak, Independants are about *issues*, not personalities or "party."
Look at most Dems and many Repubs, they do "what they're told to do lock-step" by their parties and whoever they're, "looking up to" that week!
Look at the Tea Party, many dissaffected Repubs and yes some Dems in their ranks pissed off at the leadership and making them pay at election time! Wouldn't it be refreshing to see something like that in the Democratic party? But I seriously doubt it because the Dems are too weak too timid to speak up to their leadership! Obama could have his secret service guys pin down a Dem at a family barbeque, squat over them and take a dump in their mouths and they'd be wiping their chins and thanking him! And the other Dems there would want to French-kiss the "dumpee!"
I don't like either the Dems or Repubs but I find, having grown up in Massachusetts that to me the Democrats are the more disgusting of the two.
And as for my "beliefs" I'm socially liberal but fiscally conservative. Is (that) that hard to understand?
I'm more against big corporations than most people in here who refer to themselves as "liberals."
They and our govt are the ones who pushed this "global economy" on us that is strangling this country!
G.E. helps get Oblunder get elected and guess who doesn't pay a dime in taxes last year? And who makes all the jet engines for our military?
Democrats are "easy", you *know* where they're going to stand on an issue before it even becomes an issue. Democrats don't think, they "feel." And finance? Why there's a "credit fairy" who gives the govt money and we'll, "never, ever have to pay it back!" They'll spit on a homeless person in Boston but *demand* that "the govt." "do something" about the starving pigmyes in Haiti, Somalia, ....fill in the blank.
The hutus and tootsies hack each other up with machetes in some ratbag foreign country in Africa and the Dems say it's... "our fault!" WTF!!!
And you get basically the same shit from the Republicans only with more expensive wardrobes and summer homes on Martha's Vinyard! And the same big corporations are courting them when they're in the w.h. It's like fuckin' AL CAPONE came back from the dead but instead of Cicero, Ill he set up shop on K Street in Washington! Big business made this country and now it's killing this country!
I was listening to Donald Trump on Michael Savage's radio show and he said that there are now more foreign "lobbyists" in Washington from China, Saudi-Arabia and India than there are American lobbyists! Foreign lobbyists trying to get their hands on *our taxdollars* and to influence *our congress* into passing legislation that favors not America but, ...their countries!
It's like a mad dash to get as much money from us as they possably can before we go bankrupt!
And when that happens Martha's Vinyard and the Virginia suburbs aren't going to be safe places to live.
And this is all brought to you by Republicans and Democrats!
So you bet I don't have narrow views. How about as wide as the Pacific ocean?
