I ask that about Conservatives and Republicans EVERY DAY on this site when I read crap like this!

All politicians lie. Plus, a person of even minor intelligence should know to always question their source. Like if the site is called boycottliberalism they are obviously going to focus on the mistakes and flaws of liberals and liberalism. I would hope most people know this, but I have my doubts. Especially, as most people on this site simply like to believe whatever they are told, so long as it in in line with their preconceived beliefs.

Can you spell "agenda"? Liberalism prevents them from
touting their own accomplishments and philosophies - they can only try to bring down the other guy to win their case.
A herd of jackals, with a herd mentality, they all do the same thing, all the time. Gets a little boring after awhile, but there are still so many people who eat it up.

I'll go through them in order.
1. First of all, this isn't liberals, this is Democrats, and yes there is a difference. Second, while Gore may have been trying to disqualify votes, the same sort of thing was going on from the Bush campaign, so neither side is free of guilt.
2. Conservatives say there's a vast left wing conspiracy, liberals say there's a vast right wing conspiracy. Fact of the matter is, this is the marginalized sides of both, so it doesn't prove a thing. Oh, and the author proves the former true in the last line, grats to him on ruining his own message. But I'll get to that later.
3. This is ridiculous. First off, the tax break, in percents, is the same across the board, so relating 1% to 10% has no bearing. Second, the money where the tax break would be going to, welfare programs for these people with lower incomes, goes away, so now these people are forced to fend for themselves on many issues that would have been covered by a larger amount of money than they're getting back.
4. There's going to be bias throughout the media. And it's not necessarily one way or the other. But hey, lets take a look at the news stories in current history, because 50 years ago doesn't make a difference today. Let's see: before Florida was announced for Bush in 2000, Fox News made a preliminary win for him that every other news station followed suit on. Not one news station spent any time speaking out against going to war with Iraq, and many are owned by ardent Republicans, including Rupert Murdoch. Besides that, many of the newspapers listed have taken a decidedly conservative stance on many issues, at least as much as liberal. I believe that the bias is so split that there is no single bias to news as a whole.
5. Cut school lunch programs? More like cut school programs massively. Now that schools have to reach certain standards to get more funding, those that don't have the resources currently are left in the dust, given less funding than ever before. This whole lunch program from the 1990's is really only an example of warring parties and not liberal bias as a whole, so don't try to make it out as my opinion.
6. Who cares? Clinton could be sexually involved with 10 women as far as I'm concerned, the only matter of trouble is the lie he told, which really didn't reflect upon him as a leader. The trouble came from trying to impeach him over it, which was amazing to me because the last one we tried that on was NIXON, who did something far worse.
7. This proves that you're talking about marginalized groups and party politics. Most liberals do not think that conservative ideas like these are purely impossible, in fact, I see them as having some merit. However, the idea that no social welfare programs at all will lead to a better American public has no warrant. It's fine to come up with ideas for skimming down these programs while at the same time benefiting the people, but you can't just lose them altogether, especially not at once.
8. Beautifully said, because obviously, right now, our country is in obvious danger. I mean, there's been tons of attacks since 9/11, right? Don't tell me: Bush's defense program's working, right? There's no evidence for it's effectiveness. Take a look at Israel. They have the best defensive program in the world, and yet they deal with attacks on a weekly basis. Meanwhile, terrorist suddenly stops for us after 9/11? Why? More importantly, there's not one liberal who wouldn't support an influx of money into the military. They would probably rather put more money into social welfare, but the idea you have going here is that there'd be no money in military at all.
9. Privatizing social security isn't just risky. It's like taking that money and shoving it in a slot machine at Las Vegas. Of course people are going to earn money, that's a given, but for the most part, it will kill people's ability to survive into old age. You act like these people have money to throw around and just try new things, but despite the problems with current social security, it's the safest program we have for the poor to keep what earnings they make.
10. Trickle-down economics. So wait, your point is that car dealerships will earn money (brilliant for them) and that the lower classes still need to buy stuff in order to keep many of these corporations in business. These corporations stay in business due to large sales of expensive things. Yes, there would be a few that would be required by competition to stay low on prices and adhere to the poor, but by doing so they would have to use cheaper materials to make a profit in a growing economy. So, you pay more money into the system, and these corporations profit, as do the upper and possibly middle classes, because they can buy from these places and make sales from their own industry. Trouble is, it never reaches the lower classes. How is this money ever getting into their hands? How does earning more money from the people cause corporations to lower their prices without doing something drastic to counter that loss? You also talk about how liberals love tax hikes. Talk about a generalization, no one loves higher taxes. It's a reality that any program requires higher taxes, but you know what requires the most in taxes? Wars. Why aren't taxes going up now? Because Bush would rather put us trillions of dollars in debt first.

So, that seems like all of them. I love how this person loves to prove our opinions about conservatives wrong, but then goes ahead and throws generalizations our way. Really makes the whole political system look insane.

That list of lies is a bunch of lies.

No sources, no collaborating evidence, just ranting.

And what's the point of "lie #6", doesn't whoever wrote this seem a tad bit obsessive?

It's not all liberals. There are many good libs out there, they are just not running for office. I also have heard crap from cons, so it goes both ways.
