You never made it past your own borders. You don't even have "liberals"
and 'conservatives" in the US - you have "democrats" and "republicans".
For liberals and conservatives, come to Canada. (and in England they're
called "tories" and "whigs")

Now crawl back under your rock and count the insects there, assuming

It's worse than that. Most of the so-called conservatives who post here
are poorly educated twits, totally lacking in the intellectual
underpinnings and morality of the political conservatives that predated
Ronald Reagan's election as POTUS. Modern "conservatism" is based upon
greed, and is the embodiment of the "I've got mine, so screw you"
philosophy.

Man, you are one wacked out person to make a statement like that.

Your assertion flies in the face of the fact that the richest member in Congress are
Democrats. Come to think of it, so is Bill Gates as are most of the tinsel town
millionaires. ;-)

Maybe there are so many rich D's in congress because the D's have to
self-finance the early stages of their political careers.

Big biz doesn't like to make huge contributions to Democrats. Dumb D's might go
off and vote on some issue based on priniciple! Can't have that now, can we?

I always find it amusing that huge firms like Enron donate at least "something"
to both sides. They may give the R's a few million and the D's maybe 10-percent
of that......but they give the D's enough to get noticed and hopefully call in
some "favors" in case the D candidate upsets the R.

You're kinda like your superhero, Bush. Simple-minded and incapable of
abstract thinking, and a big fan of sound bites.

Feh.

But you have to understand that the foundation for modern liberalism in the
US today is a belief that liberals believe they are morally and
intellectually superior to all others...they have their own set of rules and
are better equipped to make the decisions for the rest of us unwashed
conservative heathens. They have to keep the poor poor because if they were
self sufficient they would vote Repub...

Actually, you don't have to "understand" this at all, since it's malarkey. This
is just a smear by the right wing whackos... most of whom realize their
intellectual & moral inferiority (to everyone, not just liberals) and jump to
this accusation in order to try and turn the tables.

Of course, if you're dumb enough to believe it, you're dumb enough to be a
Bushie neoconservative.... but do you ever wonder to yourself, quietly, why they
don't appear to be interested in "conserving" anything?
