Conservatives are Proud, Liberals Aren't..
Proof that Liberals lie and are ashamed
to be liberals. ****************************** As all of you well know, John Kerry is making conservative values statements faster than anybody can count. He now says life begins at conception. That is not what liberals believe. He's a friend of gun owners. Liberals hate gun owners. He believes marriage should be between a man and a woman. That's not what the liberals in this country are trying to support. He represents conservative values, he said. His Benedict Arnold statements made repeatedly during the primaries were the result of overaggressive speechwriters, not what he thought. Kerry is doing this precisely because he knows liberalism is a political millstone around the neck of any modern presidential candidate. And so do all these other liberals in the media and the Democratic Party, when you accuse this ticket of being the most liberal in the history of the Democratic Party, "What do you mean, liberal? I don't understand. You guys keep throwing that ward around, doesn't mean anything." Rather than, flex any muscles and say, damn right, I'm a liberal. They run from it because it is a millstone. Contemporary liberalism has been shown to be a failure in social policy; for example, in welfare, crime, and education; economic policy, contemporary liberalism leads to high taxes, suffocating regulations, tariffs, the nanny state, if you will. And contemporary liberalism has in foreign and defense policy, leads to unilateral disarmament and unwillingness to use American force, disdain for the idea of American exceptionalism, that's e-x-c, exceptionalism, a deep comfort with framing international issues in terms of right and wrong and good and evil, a discomfort with that. Those are all elements of contemporary liberalism in foreign and defense policy. Get rid of all of our weapons, turn over defense to international bodies like the UN, reluctance to use force, disdain for the idea that America is exceptional, we're no better, we're no different than anybody else; in fact, we have no right to impose ourselves on people, which we don't do. Kerry understands this. He understands he cannot be tagged as a liberal, and so he's going to extraordinary rhetorical and photo op lengths to shed the liberal label. His problem is that as a Massachusetts attorney general and senator his entire political career has been characterized by liberalism. This is not a attack, and that's another thing. You call a liberal a liberal and they say, "You are attacking me, this is a dirty trick. This is attack politics." How can it be? To simply identify them is a dirty trick. But it is to them, it's an epithet. It's not an attack, simply an empirical statement based on Kerry's long voting record, liberalism is the political well from which he has consumed beverages for two decades. ****************************************** Just as George Bush, Sr, commented on the lies and lack of intergirty of Bill Clinton, we are seeing the same sorts of lies out of Kerry. Do we want a President that is a liar and a fraud? The answer is clear, unless you are a liberal and approve of liars. |

So, you don't believe that a woman has a right to choose
what happens with her own body. Got it. So, you believe that anyone can own whatever gun they want without regulation, even thought that sort of practice almost killed Reagan and seriously injured Brady and others. Got it. So, you believe that common values cannot be held by Democrats, but rather only by extremist right-wing freaks such as Limbaugh and Pat Robertson. Got it. So, you believe that just because you lost your job under Clinton, therefore, despite the facts, he's responsible for everything bad in America. Got it. I say go ahead and vote for Bu****. It's not going to make any difference. He's going to LOSE. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Bart Senior" wrote in message t...

This thread is not about what I believe. None of
your rant made any sense. It about what Kerry says he believes. He, like most liberal politicians, is not proud of his beliefs. Liberal extremism is what most people in the US find frightening. Uncontrolled spending, rewarding the welfare mentality, denying honest people the right to protect themselves, are just a few of these wacko ideals. All of these have been proven to be failures. Kerry will lose the upcoming election because most American's consider liberalism to be extremism. He is not trying to distance himself from liberalism. What he is doing now is laughable. Gov Davis ruined the California economy, and Bustamante lost to Schwarzenegger for the same reason. At the time the extremists in the SF Bay area were shocked tha Bustamante lost. Their comments were--"The rest of California was uninformed and stupid." Meanwhile, the rest of California was laughing at the liberal extremists because they were to stupid ones that can't comprehend cause and effect. Now the tax base in California has been ruined and will not recover for ten or more years--all because of liberal spending and stupid laws raising workman's comp costs. By the way, I support the liberal idea of charity for others in need. I just don't comprehend why Liberals promote this belief, yet don't give much themselves. If liberals were charitable, they wouldn't need everyone else to pay for their beliefs. How much has Kerry given in the last 20 years, compared to his wealth? If he has that much money why doesn't he do some good with it? He could afford to give away more than half his weath and still live comfortably. He could be a hero. Not Kerry, not the Clintons, not Jackson. They are all greedy people promising so much for the poor, while selling out America and lining their own pockets. Jonathan Ganz wrote the following typical liberal nonsense, trying to change the subject and not make any constructive commentary. [Remember, Rule 1 of Extremist Liberalism, when you don't have an argument, attack the messenger.] So, you don't believe that a woman has a right to choose what happens with her own body. Got it.

"Bart Senior" wrote in message t... Proof that Liberals lie and are ashamed to be liberals. Conservatives? Goldwater was a Conservative AFAIK there are no real conservatives on either side. ****************************** As all of you well know, John Kerry is making conservative values statements faster than anybody can count. He now says life begins at conception. That is not what liberals believe. If you read the historical part of the Roe vs Wade decision you'd know that is not what concervatives believe either. The only people who believe *human* life begins at conception are religious kooks - people with the simple minds of 3-year-olds who have an invisible friend that tells them to think that. He's a friend of gun owners. Liberals hate gun owners. They do??Teddy K is a liberal? His bodyguards carry Uzis! Diane Fienstein has a permit to carry. The real anti-gun cranks are the Methodist and other churches who fund Sarah Brady and other politicians. Follow "deep-throat's" advice - follow the money and you'll see. He represents conservative values, .... Please define "conservative values". To me there is only one: "That government is best that governs least" - the one that gave us the Constitution of the United States. Lest we forget, the people who wrap themselves in the flag and call themselves "conservative" today are in fact the spiritual heirs of the tolatarian theocrats who made even birth control illegal early in the last century. Kerry is doing this precisely because he knows liberalism is a political millstone ..... Yup, for the same reason that no "conservatives" are openly promising to outlaw abortion and birth control - again - even tho that's their adjenda. Contemporary liberalism has been shown to be a failure in social policy; for example, in welfare, crime, and education; economic policy, contemporary liberalism leads to high taxes, suffocating regulations, tariffs, the nanny state, if you will. Then Reagan and Bush are bigger liberals than Clinton or Kerry. Has government shrank under either one? No, it grew! The difference is Clinton made us pay as we go by raising taxes while Reagan and Bush ran up huge deficites for our children and grandchildren to pay. Jeeze, Bush BORROWs more money per year then liberal JFK spent! Do we want a President that is a liar and a fraud? AFAIK we've never had one that wasn't, at least in my lifetime. Do you? I just read where Bush's National Guard records were "accidentally" destroyed. |

It's about Kerry believing in a woman's right to choose, it's about
not allowing every wacko to own a gun, it's about Kerry having common values just like most thinking Republicans. Kerry is a compassionate Liberal, which actually means something unlike Bu****'s compassionate Conservatism lies. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Bart Senior" wrote in message t...

Proof that Liberals lie and are ashamed to be liberals. ****************************** Funny, I am liberal, and I consider my self a proud individual, proud of who I am and proud of my personal accomplishments As all of you well know, John Kerry is making conservative values statements faster than anybody can count. Since when are positive values the sole property of conservatives? He now says life begins at conception. That is not what liberals believe. I have always believed life begins at conception or soon there after, and I am liberal, How can thet be? He's a friend of gun owners. Liberals hate gun owners. I cannot own a gun and be liberal? Ok if you say so, just don't break into my house, you may be surprised. He believes marriage should be between a man and a woman. That's not what the liberals in this country are trying to support. I believe marriage is between a man and a woman, I also belive that it may be between two individuals who love ,respect and are devoted to eachother regardless of sex. He represents conservative values, he said. His Benedict Arnold statements made repeatedly during the primaries were the result of overaggressive speechwriters, not what he thought.

Have you ever looked up the meaning of Liberal? It means one who is acceptant to change. Are you saying that the conservative movement today is not trying to change things in our society today? All liberals, including Ralph Nader, Michael Moore ect? Contemporary liberalism has been shown to be a failure in social policy; for example, in welfare, crime, and education; economic policy, contemporary liberalism leads to high taxes, suffocating regulations, tariffs, the nanny state, if you will. Contempory liberalism has given us social security, NLRB, the Clean water bill,the clean air act, education and acess to higher education through federal programs(which generate more economic activity by training the masses for higher paying jobs). And contemporary liberalism has in foreign and defense policy, leads to unilateral disarmament and unwillingness to use American force, disdain for the idea of American exceptionalism, that's e-x-c, exceptionalism, a deep comfort with framing international issues in terms of right and wrong and good and evil, a discomfort with that. Unilateral disarmement, I think the Roosevelt presidency would show that to be wrong, as well as the Kennedy and Johnson administrations. Besides shouldn't you exhaust all possible options, diplomatic and economic ect, before you send our soldiers into harms way? Also who is defining good and evil, you or me? Those are all elements of contemporary liberalism in foreign and defense policy. Get rid of all of our weapons, turn over defense to international bodies like the UN, reluctance to use force, disdain for the idea that America is exceptional, we're no better, we're no different than anybody else; in fact, we have no right to impose ourselves on people, which we don't do. I think if you would speak to most liberals they wouldn't disarm and turn our defense completely over to the UN, but certianly the UN can be used as a spring-board in order to keep things in check and the lines of communication open to avoid sending our armed forces into harms way unnecessarily, also we could reduce our military expense if we could get the burden shared instead of going off half cocked( as in the unfounded WMD debate). Kerry understands this. He understands he cannot be tagged as a liberal, and so he's going to extraordinary rhetorical and photo op lengths to shed the liberal label. His problem is that as a Massachusetts attorney general and senator his entire political career has been characterized by liberalism. This is not a attack, and that's another thing.

But it is to them, it's an epithet. It's not an attack, simply an empirical statement based on Kerry's long voting record, liberalism is the political well from which he has consumed beverages for two decade s. Kerry isn't a true liberal, he is the most liberal of the 2 prime candidates running. His doctrine is centrist, and one of more consensus rather than the "my way or the high... highwhatever I think, how do you spell that?" of the current occupier of that office. ****************************************** Just as George Bush, Sr, commented on the lies and lack of intergirty of Bill Clinton, we are seeing the same sorts of lies out of Kerry. Do we want a President that is a liar and a fraud? The answer is clear, unless you are a liberal and approve of liars. We have a president who is at best one who acts on incomplete information, interprets information to his advantage and at worst is an out an out liar, I hope for the first scenario, but it says little of his intuitive abilities and his ability to admit a mistake.
