It is not what most would call normal. You are making a weak argument by twisting words
Logical fallacy

You are talking about average. DEFINE NORMAL.
Would you call people who are left handed as normal. Why is it taken for granted most are right handed? Because that is normal.
Oh please.....seriously....where do you get your information? Its too obvious that you listen to way too much right-wing propoganda.
Look at her voting record. She is HARDLY a liberal. I wish she were...but she is extremely moderate. My only hope is that with a lifetime appointment, maybe there is a liberal side of her that will come out...but based on her history...I doubt it.
define:normal - Google Search
# conforming with or constituting a norm or standard or level or type or social norm; not abnormal; "serve wine at normal room temperature"; "normal ...
# in accordance with scientific laws
# being approximately average or within certain limits in e.g. intelligence and development; "a perfectly normal child"; "of normal intelligence"; "the most normal person I've ever met"
# convention: something regarded as a normative example; "the convention of not naming the main character"; "violence is the rule not the exception"; "his formula for impressing visitors"
She may not be as far left as you are my friend but she is a Liberal, make no mistake about it.....You can't judge everyone by yourself.....
LOL......considering that you refer to some of the most conservative people on this site as your "liberal friends"....I think its destroyed any credibility you might have on this particular issue. :doh
Like I said my left wing friend I don't care what it says besides a person name here...I can only assume aa lot of liberals are ashamed to be called that but I say when it walks like a duck and talks like a duck then its usually a duck no matter how they list their selves in DP............
Why are you ashamed to admit that you are a Republican Navy?...like you say....if it walks and talks like a duck...its usually a duck no matter how you list yourself. Hey don't sweat it Navy....after what your "great and inspired world leader" did to this country....if I were a Republican, I'd be ashamed to admit it as well.
It has never been normal it has always been rare by a small group of people
Do republicans vote for democrats.........Senator Scoop Jackson and Congressman Norm Dicks both dems I voted for..........
So, you're telling me, by the same standard, that my red-headed brother is not normal? After all, only a small group of people have red hair.
You must have already met my brother then. It wouldn't matter what color his hair is, he ain't normal.
So, you are telling us that you are using the words normal and average synonymously? If that is the case, would you consider being left handed abnormal? Would you consider being black abnormal?

I think so CC.
Wow! :shock:
There is nothing wrong with being red headed but you can not call it the norm because the majority are right handed.......The problem is we are not talking about red haired or left handed are we?

We hear you quacking Navy.....but we can't quite make it out.
Wait.....oh.....yes....just because you ocassionally vote outside your party...you are still a hardcore Republican...but hey...I understand it is pretty embarrassing to admit it...so call yourself whatever you like.
Believe you what DD, I am secure in my political beliefs.........Its obvious you are not...........
Way to misconstrue the conversation......its not about "the norm" which would be the "average"....we've been using normal v. abnormal.
He's already said that if you are a minority you are not normal.
If he is using the words normal and average as synonyms, OK. His vocabulary may be problematic, but at least he is consistent. However, if he does NOT view blacks, red-heads, or left handers as ABnormal, than he is being a hypocrite and his position is a complete failure.
I can't help it DD, you lefties make such ridiculous comparisons.........
That's why he has avoided the issue. He knows that his position is unsupportable. It would be interesting to see him address his inconsistencies though. I doubt we'll see it though.
NP, answer my question... and do NOT change my words... a simple yes or no will suffice: is being black normal?
