Liberals, what has your time at YA politics taught you about Republicans and the Bush administration?

Question

....Or verified for you?

Answer 1

Its taught me, unfortunately that they're hopeless.
They've been permanently brainwashed and are brain-dead when it comes to any criticism of the Bush administration.

I doesn't do any good to argue with them. If its not on FOX news they don't believe it.

The thing that really scares me is that there are SO MANY OF THEM!

Its like 'Night of the Living Dead' all over the US!

Answer 2

Republicans with half a brain are now seeing what many have said about Bush since the beginning. The other right wingnuts continue to spout their nonsense, the same way as the left wing wackos.

From an ill advised war to never protecting our borders, supporting amnesty for illegal aliens, and basically dividing our country even further, the Bush administration continues to spiral down.

And even worse (is that possible) the mainstream candidates running for his office are just more of the same, Republican and Democratic. The American people need to speak out and make a change.

Vote out all incumbents. Vote for the lower tier candidates. Wake up the political parties with a resounding NO to a continuation of current policies.

Answer 3

I'm not a liberal but I'll take a stab at your question. It has shown me this President and republicans in general are concerned about how we are going to pay for different things, like national health care. Our President and republicans in general are not concerned at all about how we are going to pay this massive debt they have provided America for the war in Iraq and the global war on terrorism, which can never be won with military force unless we are willing to wipe out mankind completely.

Answer 4

Other POVs, and reasons for them, such as capitalism and just being a conservative.

I also learned that conservatives have an annoying habit to pick out the worst behaviors of the worst Liberals, and then describe ALL liberals like that. Even if that behavior is actually unliberal. Such as rukidding's answer (no offense).

Answer 5

Nothing. My opinion of Bush and his administration is not based on anything I read here. It is sad to see so many people unwilling to even question some of his actions.

Answer 6

They seem to be suffering from the same mental illness. Has anyone heard the outright insanity Giuliani is spouting. And Bush well every time he speaks I wonder if he is truly serious. I have also discovered they care more about what people do in private with their private parts, and with whom. They don't seemed to be concerned about the cold,hungry and sick.

Answer 7

Actually you learn very little form either side....the questions and answer consist of mainly half truths and innuendo.....very rarely do you see a link to any credible source...... The number one response seems to be some variation of.... "Oh yeh, well somebody from your party did something worse"....... And finally if someone makes a valid point that the other side is unable to dispute, several report them and their post is removed.

Answer 8

My time has taught me that there are many uninspired, drones out there who ask the same questions over and over. This is mainly because they can't think for themselves. This is the case on both sides of the isle.

Answer 9

That they are willing to believe (or claim to believe) what their hate-radio pundits tell them regardless of any and all evidence to the contrary.

They are willing to put party loyalty over everything... religion, country, EVERYTHING.

Answer 10

You don't want to know what time on YA politics has taught Republicans about liberals? I'll tell you anyway....

I used to think that liberals were open-minded, easy-going people who were accepting of people and their thoughts. I used to think liberals liked to debate issues and discuss. I guess I bought their PR.

I now think that liberals are the most closed-minded, hate-filled people I have ever encountered in my life. They accept nothing and no one but those who agree with them. They don't discuss, they insult. If they don't get their way, they become extremely bitter and do whatever is necessary, ethical or not, truthful or lies, to bring others down.

I now am more reluctant than ever to vote for a Democrat, though in the past I considered what a candidate stood for rather than with whom the candidate was aligned. (I am only going out to vote next Tuesday to vote for a Democrat, though. I won't vote for anyone else.) I am now suspicious of liberal motives and look for their agenda. My encounter on YA with liberals have made me more conservative.
