Some good points, heb. I used to be totally against Hamilton because of the concept we must be Jeffersonians because of individual freedom. I realize now I am a Hamiltonian.

Bruce S said:Having moderated a political war zone site for years, then another for the past few years, seeing liberals duke it out with conservatives I have often pondered long and hard that very point.
Basically, the real difference between a liberal and a conservative is how they approach life. A LIBERAL decides what HE thinks is right FIRST, then projects all his efforts and thinking towards defending the original premise. No amount of reality is allowed to deter that original idea. It is locked in stone, never to be changed.
A conservative, starts exactly the same way. However, and this is critical differnce, the conservative begins to interject reality into the process, he observes results, accumulates information, he or she, CHANGES that original position as a result of observed results.
A liberal holds on forever, no matter what, he thinks with is heart, not his head.
My two cents on the matter.

La Bonita Zorilla said:Yeah, but guessing your ideology with that avatar is an exercise. Are you a Shiite Fundamentalist?

Rayosun said:It's CONSERVATIVE politicians who desire power, power, and more power. This is absolutely the ONLY reason they do anything. They react to the expediency factors of the moment.

Lol, so you were still hung over when you turned liberal?La Bonita Zorilla said:That's okay, I was already there; I got there in my undergraduate years about the same time I quit drinking alcohol.
Rayosun said:For anyone wanting to know why Jesus Christ is the epitome of Liberalism (properly understood), then go to the LiberalsLikeChrist . org web site . I can't use links yet, but some of you veterans may want to use them for me to direct others to various parts of our mega "Liberals Like Christ" site.
LIBERAL politicians are the ones who identify with the poor and the powerless. They fought for blacks when they were SLAVES and had no power or money at all to reward them with. The couldn't even VOTE for those politicians, for God's sake.
