Why don't bleeding heart liberals get it - it's the poor who suffer most from the socially liberal society?

Question

Single mothers left alone because of the loss of respect for fidelity and marriage.

Communities being destroyed by the casual acceptance of drugs.

Teen pregnancies because of the increasing sexualization of childhood (eg teen pop icons promoting overt sexuality).

Answer 1

This doesn't sound socially liberal, it just sounds like a broken society.

"Single mothers left alone because of the loss of respect for fidelity and marriage."

How many mothers are made single because of what is going on in Iraq?

"Communities being destroyed by the casual acceptance of drugs."

With medical marijuana landing people with federal charges, there is no "casual acceptance" of drugs

"Teen pregnancies because of the increasing sexualization of childhood (eg teen pop icons promoting overt sexuality)."

A problem of pop culture, not social liberalism.

Sorry, try again.

Answer 2

This coming from a 'compassionate conservative'??? can't any of you conservatives ask a civil question without calling names? Bleeding heart liberals - as compared to a shone hearted conservative. Ebenezer stated it top for you - are there no prisons? unmarried moms left on my own - because at the same time as the daddy tried to stay with them, the compassionate conservatives shrink off her foodstuff stamps, toddler care and well being care. do not tell me it would not take position, I actual have seen it first hand. So after a technology or 2 of forcing the fathers to stay faraway from the relatives, you're shocked and a great deal shocked that it has change right into a lifestyle? communities being destroyed by using the casual attractiveness of medication? could this be the white wealthy suburbs which have extreme costs attorneys to make the challenge bypass away at the same time as little Johny or Janie receives busted on cocaine; or the undesirable underprivileged inner city slums the position Jefferson or Shantile bypass to reformatory and are thrown away like yesterdays trash because the can't have sufficient money a criminal specialist? teen pregnancies because of increasing sexualization. nicely I actual ought to furnish you that one - i wager even a conservative can get one top once in a lengthy time period.

Answer 3

wow, you like to turn things into something they aren't don't you?! Um, maybe the Federal Cuts in education from republicans caused the acceptance of drugs. Perhaps the single mothers became single mothers because the men saw what Giuliani was doing and thought they'd give it a whirl. As far as the teen pop icons promoting overt sexuality...I agree with you on that one. But i don't think those teen pop stars even knew about libs/cons, and they promoted stupidity. You can't say that just cause a teen promotes those things that they're a liberal. Most of them are good ol' southern Christian girls (jessica simpson, britany spears, etc.).

Answer 4

Do you really think that the government can control the culture? The 12 years of Conservative government under Reagan Bush saw increasing divorce rates and drug use, is this their fault? The teen pregnancy rate peak under Eisenhower in 1955 and has been declining ever since. Liberals are just more realistic about the limits of government power to control behavior and would alleviate some of the secondary problems that the culture has caused particularly for children. Can you honestly say that the war on drugs has made things better.

Answer 5

Liberals have a lower divorce rate than conservatives. Ronald Reagan is the only divorced and remarried American President. Liberals as a general rule do not casually accept drug use. There are probably more liberals actually doing to fight drugs tha conservative. I know that for one I am active helping people in recovery. Drug addiction is an equal opportunity affliction. What is Rush Limbaugh doing to fight drugs? Liberals are Feminists. Liberals are against exploitation and sexual objectification at any age. We want to promote self respect. The teen pop icon Britney Spears says she supports President Bush.

Answer 6

I believe in balance. I think the country has been propagandized too much by the loony right. People should be prevented from getting handouts as much as possible, but when working joes can't even get decent health care because fat wealthy drug and insurance companies scam everyone, and the government turns it's cheek there's a big problem. Right now, conservatives are denying the problem. People who notice that there even is a problem are blamed for being liberals. It's really sad.

Answer 7

These are not necessarily examples of how liberals live or what "liberals" have caused in the world. And let's remind the "right wing conservative" who posted this question that we're finding more and more evidence every day that the so called "Family Values" party is anything but. Divorce, marital infidelity, Congressmen trying to hook up with guys in bathrooms...give me a break. The problem with people like this poster is that they listen to Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'REALLY? too much and don't stop to look at the FACTS.

Answer 8

Why don't War Mongering "Christian" Conservatives get it?

Abortions become more prevalent in poor societies where people don't have access to birth control and can't afford another mouth to feed, and they're dumped on because the "conservative" churches that spend their time telling their parishioners how to vote, don't spend any time ministering to these people, who need it the most?

Answer 9

Actually, the rates of teen pregnancy are down. And last I checked, single mothers are single mothers because some irresponsible man knocked her up and ran away.

And since when are drugs are "liberal" problem? Do you know how "hillbilly heroin" and meth are decimating the poor red states?

Answer 10

Very few of the poor meet the criteria of your examples. Are you speaking from personal experience or personal opinion based on what you've heard?
