More Conservatives Than Liberals In America?

A Gallup survey showed most Americans identify as conservative - another poll shows Americans don't understand what's going on in 2012. Michael Shure (host, Twentytwelve) fills in for Cenk Uygur on The Young Turks and breaks it down.

STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR OBAMA.

If you don't want to act on the policy that you run on, than don't run on it. Otherwise, expect criticism, unrest, angry citizens and then expect not to get reelected. It's that fucking simple.

@Newenlightenmentnow Agreed! I also think all religions should be subject to criticism which includes christian and catholic faith.

@sholmesful

Sure thing.

Feel free to message me here or PM if you have any ideas or requests.

@raspberrymuffin Most people don't see the gray. What people do see are "boarders" which are kept to make people into slaves and slave masters. I think the only way to break down those boarders and fences is to hightlight the similarites we all share with each other. However, if you have a better idea please let me know?

@Newenlightenmentnow ObamaCare, from "Social Security Online, Actuarial Publications, socialsecurity.gov" "Status of the Social Security and Medicare Programs", "SUMMARY OF THE 2011 ANNUAL REPORTS Social Security and Medicare Boards of Trustees". "an almost 30-percent reduction in Medicare payment rates for physician services is assumed to be implemented in 2012, notwithstanding experience to the contrary. report notes long-term viability of this provision is debatable.

@Newenlightenmentnow Poor baby is mixed up! Each year "Trustees of the Social Security and Medicare trust funds" make a report. THEY state the unfunded liablities at nearly $100 Trillion. The money "invested" in trust fund has been loaned to the Federal Govt, and spent. It is Govt debt. When SS asks for the cash, Fed Govt will need to either borrow it back, tax us higher for it, or print it. You are very confused, as are all your heroes.

@Newenlightenmentnow The Govt admitted that Valierie Plame was outed by Richard Armitage, not Cheney`s office. In fact, the Govt prosecutor knew from the beginning WHO outed her. No charges brought up on the man admitting to the outing. Libby convicted not for the outing, but on lying to authorities.

@luvcheney1 I also love your username too. Way to take the name of a traitor who outed a CIA agent. Not only did he out a CIA agent, but that agent was working on chasing loose nukes. Thanks to Dick Cheney, it's now more likely that a nuclear attack will happen in the US. For that crime, Cheney, Rove, and Libby need to stand trial for treason and be executed.

[Newenlightenmentnow]

@luvcheney1 The conversation is now over. I don't use fox news talking points such as Obama care, which is in no way a government takeover of healthcare. Its a mandate, requiring all citizens to buy private insurance. Its not Obama anything. Next point, education far behind the rest of the world? Do you really think the countries that do better have less government? Wrong. Germany, Finland, Sweden, Japan, have nearly exclusively public schools.

[Newenlightenmentnow]

@luvcheney1 More bullshit directly out of your ass. Look we tried it your way with unregulated monopolies as in California and Enron and that worked out great. The roads are in bad shape because they're underfunded. Period. Some states such as Wisconsin match federal funding with state funding, and it's in great shape. A better example of state owned roads would be the autobahn in Germany. The roads are flawless. So the government can and does often perform well.
