That's right, Republicans aren't conservative and Democrats aren't liberal.

:roll:

This is classic liberal thinking -- one subject at a time, they eventually claim not to know the actual identity of anything at all.

Everything's relative. 2 + 2 does not equal 4 to a liberal.
Rather, they think that a sincere effort needs to be made to weigh the opinions of those who disagree with 2 + 2 = 4.

If it sounds like I'm saying that liberals have muddled thinking, you're red-hot.

appeal to logic from someone claiming ID without presenting any real proofs or theories or anything to contradict evolution.

Actually, it doesn't sound like you are saying anything at all, since basically what you do is spew illogical rhetoric. :lol:

There, there - we understand your poor little emotionally wrung out Republican soul. After all, it has been a hard eight years being the water boy for George W. Bush and all, huh? Plus, you've got all that blood on your hands from the ongoing slaughter in Iraq. Poor old Ragtime, boo hoo hoo. :wink:

There's enough muddled thinking on both sides, actually, which is why I'm a moderate.

You come off very disingenuous. "Frankly, I have no personal problem with your poll at all"
is completely and obviously false, for instance.

Wow, I'd love to join you, but I'm OUT OF MONEY, because I'm not a Conservative!

Hey Ragsy, can you reach into your Republican pocket and dig out some of my tax money so that I can buy some DOPE? :lol:

Well, there are many more differences between him and me than that -- some of which I'm grateful for -- but I thank you for the compliment.
