Hey Y3Y3~
Now that they have saved the whales, owls, and wolfs and are completely
Yes, you DO prove my point. you have NOT provided any observations on the suject of left brain vs right brain problem solving abilities.
As an exmple, the liberals didn't care about ANY ASPECT of 0bamas platforms or his explainations of his past. These details were of no importance, and now that he is in office, some are finally saying that his economic policies are stupid, and he doesn't get it. He is proving to be inarticulate when his telepromptor isn't present, but the libs ignored the bad job he did without it. DETAILS! He has been saying one thing and doing another. His associates can't get those appointments because they have mostly been tax cheats. What kind of friends and associates are they? None seem to have ANY integrety. When this was brought up during the campaign, the libs thought it was just a personal attack, having no basis in fact. Yet another ncorrect assumption by the lefties.
The lefties were all about emotion, easily falling for the shallow campaign slogans like "Yes we can" and "Change" . The Conservatives warned that the "Change" promised was financial ruin, with all the high taxes, and loss of our rights. This is coming true. DETAILS!!! "Yes we can" turned out to be an even bigger lie as he hasn't shown that he can do anything. He has proven indecisive, vague, and downright fumbling and clumsy. His staff and those political hacks he has surrounded himself have insulted and offended world leaders and some in his own party. They hae proven that the don't KNOW the details, and that therefore they must not be important.
0bama and his cult followers are so caught u in themselves that they are missing important WORLD DETAILS AND EVENTS. Russia and Cuba and even Chavez little 3rd world slum are all planing to harrass the US, as the Mexican Drug lords are massing on our southern borders, while nobama is stalling his decisionsabout what to do. I guess he's waiting for.................Pelosi to tell him whento surrender?
Liberals think they are correct all the time and conservati
Liberals seek fairness and want to point out injustice while disregardi
Liberals also think they should dictate what 'fair' is based on emotional criteria, whereas Conservati
Liberals want abortion on demand and are against the death penalty!!?
Liberals ignore the past lessons and will re-try failed policies like tax-n-spen
Conservati
I think Liberals agree with the following more than the Conservatives. Thinking of "shock&awe":
[1] The subject that I am about to discuss is most philosophical, that is, whether devout reason is sovereign over the emotions. So it is right for me to advise you to pay earnest attention to philosophy.
[2] For the subject is essential to everyone who is seeking knowledge, and in addition it includes the praise of the highest virtue -- I mean, of course, rational judgment.
[3] If, then, it is evident that reason rules over those emotions that hinder self-control, namely, gluttony and lust,
[4] it is also clear that it masters the emotions that hinder one from justice, such as malice, and those that stand in the way of courage, namely anger, fear, and pain.
[5] Some might perhaps ask, "If reason rules the emotions, why is it not sovereign over forgetfulness and ignorance?" Their attempt at argument is ridiculous!
[6] For reason does not rule its own emotions, but those that are opposed to justice, courage, and self-control; and it is not for the purpose of destroying them, but so that one may not give way to them.
[7]
I could prove to you from many and various examples that reason is dominant over the emotions,
Once again Boots you have not a clue.You start off by stating "I think Liberals agree with the following more than the Conservatives."
"The following" you claim are traits such as "rational judgment" and "reason rules over those emotions that hinder self-control" and "it is also clear that it masters the emotions that hinder one from justice, such as malice, and those that stand in the way of courage, namely anger, fear, and pain",blah,blah,blah........
Boots,if you think that any of the above qualities are indicative of the average Liberal then you need to seriously research your subject.
Liberals are prone to tossing aside rational judgement in favor of emotions and being fearful and incompetant to the point of trying to equalize things by bringing everyone else down to their level(gun control for example).They are also so self hating that they are hell bent that crime,poverty and every other plight that a society bestows upon itself is always the fault of themselves and everyone except the one's actually responsible.Bill Clinton refered to this as "shared responsibility".
Liberals are very much prone to bouts of self righteousness and self importance.For example no matter how many times socialism fails Liberals are fully convinced that the reason it didn't work is because THEY were not the one's running it.
Along with that Libs are convinced that we are all too stupid to manage our own lives and need others to do it for us,hence the tern "nanny staters" which is another term for Big Brother.People in NJ not being allowed to pump their own gas is my fave example.All gas must be pumped by a "professional".
I'd seen this before but it's been a while.It's totally ironic that a buddy of mine sent me this just yesterday.I figured it would fit in here.I think the review is from WorldNetDaily but I'm not 100% sure.
Anyhow,this is a review of a book titled "The Liberal Mind:Psychological Causes of Political Madness" by one Dr. Lyle Rossiter,Jr.I tried to dig up some negative dirt on this fellow just to cover my bases but suprisingly I couldn't find any.This fellow is credible and well respected.In fact,so far,the only people I see disagreeing with his way of thinking are,of course,Liberals.
Required reading for anyone confused on the issue of why Liberals truely are crazy......and dangerous.
Now before I tack on the review let me also point out a rather interesting piece of video from YouTube featuring a speech by Evan Sayet for The Heritage Foundation regarding the mindset of Liberals.
At first he drags a bit for the first minute and a half but then it gets interesting after that.Check it out:

"The Liberal Mind:Psychological Causes of Political Madness"
Just when liberals thought it was safe to start identifying themselves as such, an acclaimed, veteran psychiatrist is making the case that the ideology motivating them is actually a mental disorder.
"Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded," says Dr. Lyle Rossiter, author of the new book, "The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness." "Like spoiled, angry children, they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave."
While political activists on the other side of the spectrum have made similar observations, Rossiter boasts professional credentials and a life virtually free of activism and links to "the vast right-wing conspiracy."
For more than 35 years he has diagnosed and treated more than 1,500 patients as a board-certified clinical psychiatrist and examined more than 2,700 civil and criminal cases as a board-certified forensic psychiatrist. He received his medical and psychiatric training at the University of Chicago.
Rossiter says the kind of liberalism being displayed by both Barack Obama and his Democratic primary opponent Hillary Clinton can only be understood as a psychological disorder.
"A social scientist who understands human nature will not dismiss the vital roles of free choice, voluntary cooperation and moral integrity – as liberals do," he says. "A political leader who understands human nature will not ignore individual differences in talent, drive, personal appeal and work ethic, and then try to impose economic and social equality on the population – as liberals do. And a legislator who understands human nature will not create an environment of rules which over-regulates and over-taxes the nation's citizens, corrupts their character and reduces them to wards of the state – as liberals do."
Dr. Rossiter says the liberal agenda preys on weakness and feelings of inferiority in the population by:
* creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization;
* satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence and compensation;
* augmenting primitive feelings of envy;
* rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government.
"The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness – can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development
produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind," he says. "When the modern liberal mind whines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious."
It's the Obama crowd that includes "unbelievers". Almost the first words of Bush after 9/11 were "going on a Crusade";) In Dallas, TX, I attended the State Senatorial District Convention for a Presidential Election, many years ago. My nieghbors all thought they were at a Revival Meeting. Faith for 8 years.
Didn't mean to start a new discussion. Have to get used to the format. Can't delete Yet and post properly.
Perhaps after Sunday, the delete option will be available.
Another way to express it, from what I've seen in Congress, Republicans are full of Fundamentalists. The Democrats have to figure out how to appeal to Fundamentalists. It's the Fundamentalists that scream&shout. That's my experience. May be your experience is different. It's the Fundamentalists that don't treat my door as private property. I suspect they are the ones that sabotage security doors in multiresidential homes. It's the fundamentalists that won't accept the RVSB with Apocrypha and won't unite all Christianity thereby. I'd say that's pure emotionalism.
An example of reverse psychology becoming "truth". The story of the Tower of Babel, it's not about confusion but about the power of unity. Especially if you substitute the more scientific "YhWh" for "the Lord".

It's always interesting when a conservative attempts to define the difference between a conservative and a liberal. As the poor unfortunate makes the attempt he/she clearly defines the reason they are a conservative. Conservatives are just that....conservative. In being conservative, one is reluctant to venture even thoughtwise beyond the known and "safe"...even when it is not safe. Conservatives like the familiar....no matter how rotten or decayed that position actually is....it is the known. To a conservative, the future IS the unknown...and THAT's why so maniy conservatives refuse to admit that the eight years we just spent with their SHRUB was so devastating to this country. Conservatives would prefer eight more years with that really rotten representative of their thinking process than to move ahead with a new innovative system of government. Conservatives are failing in this society because they'd prefer to retain the known decaying failure than get off their own decaying posteriors and recognize that what we have had in the past has failed the American people. As conservatives you cling to the failed past and continue to be used as a tool of your own destruction by following those who have profited by that very conservativism you so proudly spout about. Your "owners" are no fools....they know you....you are predictable. I'm proud that I am a liberal. I believe in freedom of unfettered thought. I look to the future with pride in our new President of this United States....AND, I will work with him....not against him. It is too bad that you still cannot accept the reason conservatives LOST the election. You lost because conservatism was strangling the life out of this country. I believe in the people of these United States of America...and WE elected a new president. WE are moving forward toward a new future for this country....come with us willingly....or be dragged into the 21st Century....either way....we don't care....we are moving forward.
