When liberals think that everyone but them is dumb, are they making a tactical blunder?

Question

Know your enemy is the first principal of victory. Liberals think all conservatives are dumb. Bush, Coulter, Libby, Cheney, et al, seem pretty intelligent to me.

Is it an act, or will liberalism self destruct as a result of faulty assesments

Answer 1

Liberals are like a bunch of barnyard chickens. When the coast is clear, they're out squawking about this and that; but, when a problem arises or a fox gets into the pen, they run around panicked looking for the nearest exit.

Answer 2

I don't think people understand!!! When they want to increase the life of many people, they turn to government!!!! The worst mistake one can make! You have to force humans into competitive markets. Politics are too easily corrupted and if you notice, the people who plead for more social government intervention are the same people who have never picked up a book on economics!!! The quality of government help is autorocious and at the same time the competitive free market has been known to build the best efficiencies ever created! The private sector builds and the government pulls down! I am not saying that people like Hillary are evil, I am just saying they are brainwashed into thinking that the government will be the end all solution to the worlds problems!!! This is not and never will be viable! Instead of people preaching government intervention they should be educating the children to be self responsible, helping them understand economic freedom, and also leading by example! If people stopped and researched the goods and bads of over subsidization, we would have no economic liberals! You cannot overpay for goods and services and expect more technological and medicinal advances! Socialism doesn't work and every nation that goes through this process has paid more dearly than those who have not! America is not on free market healthcare anymore! This is one of the reasons why 35% of people can't afford insurance! It's not that there is too little government, but that there is too much government already! This double headed snake has to be tackled at the root! The addition of branches just makes it strong reducing the hope and strength the people have! I truly believe and would die to make the world a better place. The funny thing is, we shouldn't have to die for it! Human nature builds the best worlds, fighting this nature is actually fighting human nature! As long as conservatives and liberals thirst for control of others, we will never be able to have the best lives! It is sad but true! Competitve markets, not high taxes and big government build the greatest nations, highest average life expectancy, lowest amounts of child labor, lowest unemployment, more goods and services, better efficiency, lower adult literacy rates, lower infant death rates, as well as the greatest growth of income per capita! The problem is nobody ever researches these things! They always look at a politician and do whatever they say should be done! There is a reason that America doesn't have France's debt and 10.2% unemployment rate. There are reasons why France and Sweden's healthcare are starting to decrease in services rendered! There are reasons why Cuba, Venezuela, Africa, and many other socialist type countries are beginning to decrease in almost every category addressed above! Without knowledge these people are left to opinions, bad opinions. When I reject a government intervention they look at me as a devil even though I know I am doing the best thing for the future of society! It is sad to know that people are so bad that we can't even count on government! Many European countries were very rich before becoming socialist and now they are being drained more and more everyday! The downfall of society is not because of greedy people in the private sector, it is because of uneducated voters that pick a side without research! This cycle of life will never stop and there is nothing the few educated people can do to stop it! World socialism is beginning and it will cause more deaths than communism's 100 million murders! The broken window fallacy is applied in almost every case in this example but many will disregard it! It is sad that so many people care, but that very few of those people understand the best way to help! Teach self reliability to your children, help them understand philanthropy! Help them understand why human nature needs to be placed into competitive markets and why governments destroy growth and prosperity, especially for the poor! Help them understand the truth and lies from the politicians words! It is sad but in todays world, many people do not understand how things just have to be! Heaven on earth is not attainable! Never will be! Economic freedom such as Hong Kong will be exactly what is needed to spread religion peacefully as well as giving the best lives possible to the most people!

With properly desirable guidelines, some stuttering is authorized. With debt bringing down the country and global and own liberties being taken away on a daily basis, debate skills and coolness gained't keep us.

Answer 4

Yea, Libby was smart enough to be found guilty, and you seriously think Bush seems intelligent? I will give you Coulter, she is heartless, but smart, she knows how to manipulate the media and is very well educated, Cheney i could give a crap about, but in my experience conservatives tend to think Liberals are the dumb ones, i guess we all experience it in our own ways

Answer 5

they call them stupid for the same reasons that conservatives call them immoral. liberals are smart and look to future while conservatives have values and rely on their experience. when they are really the same damn people and the only difference is who endorses them and some times not even that. get over yourselves and realize nobody helps the little guy or the non-white guy or the working man.

Answer 6

Make your own conclusion.The liberals have been corrupt ever since they first started the party with John A Macdonald. They did and might still have some good attributes to them but not many and i havent seen anything good come out from them in a while.

Answer 7

i'm surprised that you list potty mouthed ann coulter right along with bush and cheney.

i wonder if this means that the republicans officially sanction coulter and if she should formally be known as a republican spokesman.

one can only wonder...

Answer 8

You've got it wrong...we don't think the republican leadership is dumb...they're very clever....it's their followers who swallow everything they say and are so easily manipulated that we find are dumb. I know a lot of republicans and if you ask them any kind of factual or deep question about the Bush adm. they cannot answer it....they run on patriotic slogans and propaganda and Fox News.

Answer 9

From what I can tell, liberals don't think tactically, much less strategically about anything.

One can simply view their economic objectives to see that they don't reflect on complex issues past the surface level.

Answer 10

The Liberals ego,ignorance is the only reason they will never have the White House.
