Or are Liberals just keeping quiet for some reason?

Maybe liberals are too liberal to complain. Maybe they believe that everyone should have the right to voice their opinions and don't need to be on the defensive.

No, we're not being quiet. There's just so much you can say to people who don't listen before you get sick of trying. They don't understand us, they think that they do, and they resort to name calling and being hateful if you try to voice an opinion that differs from their own. You can't have a real debate with them because they only see things in black and white - there are no gray areas. They say things like "America - love it or leave it" and then accuse you of being unpatriotic if you stand up to a corrupt government BECAUSE you love your country so much. They say they love the constitution, but are against the basic human rights given in the constitution. They make me angry sometimes, because they refuse to see anyone else's side, and I get tired of seeing all the hate on here. We're all human beings on this big rock, and in the grand scheme of things, this is all minor stuff. I just wish that they could be a little more open to other people's points of view and could stop the name calling and hating. In the end, it cheapens all of us.

Oh they're around. Just not as organized as the anti-liberals.
And most of them, even the irrational ones, prefer to attack the Republican party, as opposed to all conservatives.
Which may say something, if self-proclaimed liberals are more willing to make such essential distinctions, even when being mindless bashers.....

It probably has something to do with the fact they are either working, or doing things to better the world, as opposed to conservatives that want to blame their failures on mythical liberal demons. If your life sucks, look in the mirror for answers, Truckin' Bubba!!!

First of all, I am an independent free thinker. Secondly I prefer to be 'pro' rather than 'anti', pro being a positive force and anti being a negative force.

Perhaps we realize that preaching to the choir has no value, and trying to convert the choir is useless.

They are quiet so we are unable to confirm that they are really as stupid as we presume.
