I just find it a fascinating phenomena in general. It does seem that Republicans are perceived to be anti intellectual even among themselves.

Democrat-Republicans , a party at one time ..Today, there is little if any difference between Democrats and Republicans , but actually we have liberals and conservatives (more conservatives than liberals ) and the conservatives are, IMO, simply NOT as smart .

Well, I for one, appreciate your continued willingness to serve as an example of the error of such perceptions. Much obliged.

Democrats / liberals and others should not confuse intelligence with Godly wisdom. It's the latter that makes the man.
 
Don't you know? Everything bad said about the right is always true, but nothing bad about the left ever is. It is funny that this thread was started to bash the right and it's your post people take issue with. It's not surprising though. Nothing ever changes.

The little trick I've always noticed is that, when something is done wrong by conservatives, then it just goes to show how bad conservatism is. When something is done wrong by leftists, then it is held that it just goes to show how bad America is.

Oh, STOP. I don't know if you've noticed around here, but anytime a "liberal" does something bad, it's an indictment of all "leftists."

Do the Conservative Victim Tango! Unlike the regular tango, it only takes one, since it's so similar to masturbation.

Really? Is there any general criticism of the left that you concede is a fair one or any critism of the right you feel is unfair. Didn't think so. Now go back to stroking yourself over the premis of this thread.

I already gave my take on this thread.

Perceived by whom?

The poll question is a stupid one, a point highlighted by numerous people. But no, according to you, the only post anyone took issue with was cpwill's.

Well, Democrats are certainly weak in general, and lack the courage of their convictions. They are bought and paid for, largely. They are only progressive when it is convenient and when they have wide public support. There is plenty to criticize about Democrats.

And yet, you take zero issue with this thread, do you? Someone could say all conservatives must die and you'd come along and object to those who disagreed. You've said before that you believe lefty members to mostly only ever be victims of those on the right. Tell me how that's the case in a thread started to bash conservatives. If you think we should just agree with it and not object to it or argue it then you are a living demonstration of why the claim of the OP is bull****.

That's your example of "taking issue" with this thread? Now if this had been about the left, is that all you would have said?

Ah, so now we're reverting to Argument By Hypothetical. How sadly typical.

You are embarrassing yourself.

I disagree, in that someone like the OP or Kobie would ever agree that the left is even capable of doing anything wrong and, if they ever did, it would only be because some conservative made them. Lol.

The more you continue to lie about my opinions, the more you prove me right.

Lame response is lame. Not surprised at all you couldn't actually address it in any substantive way. No worries. You remain consistent with who I understand you to be.

In order to address something substantively, it has to have substance. Nothing you've posted in this thread has a shred of it.

You mean I'm proving you right about how leftys on the forum are just always victims of those of us on the right? Speaking of a victim complex....

I thought the religious right were victims pro-gay liberals. *confused*

If you could have proved me wrong, you would have. Again, no worries. You consistently live up (or down) to every expectation I have of you.

In order for someone to be a "victim," actual harm has to be inflicted. Fortunately, this is an internet forum, where that's pretty much impossible. I never once have said that "leftys on the forum" are victims of anything. So go sell your bull**** and lies someplace else.

Is it that hard to ask that, just once, you can actually be honest about what someone posts rather than lie your ass off about it to score cheap debate points?

If you could have proved me wrong, you would have. Again, no worries. You consistently live up (or down) to every expectation I have of you.

Prove what wrong? In order to prove something wrong, a salient point must first be made. What the hell is it?
 
Do you think I'm anti gay?

I don't know you well enough. However, the statement wasn't directed at you, but the religious right who have outright said that they are victims.

You've already said repeatedly how much you hate everything and everyone on the right. Why would that be the case unless you believe certain things to be consistently true about anyone who IDs themselves as conservative? I'm pretty sure my views on gay rights would blow your tiny mind.
 
Are you the religious right? How did this thread become about you all of a sudden?

I'm a Christian conservative. Based on that, does that make me anti gay?
