  • Both liberals and conservatives would benefit from not instantly ruling out the other side, and accepting the fact that both sides have merit (both sides also have problems). If you really want to practice being open-minded, you'll eschew general insults towards groups you don't align with, and focus rather on specific issues, policies, and morals. This is what his talk is about.

  • Thumbs up if your a Liberal

  • @vistarox In 2010 ----20 MILLION--- men, women and children died of starvation.

    In the same year "Sex & the City" grossed ----288 MILLION----

    Dont you think that is "crazy" enough already?

  • @Aundrich Please spell conservative right, come on!

  • ...pretty bold

  • I'm a conservetive my heart. I have some liberalist ideas. But my foundations are conservetive. Humans have a natural ability faint but a natural ability they develope further in growing up. It's right and wrong aka choice.

  • I will admit that this paints a fairly negative but accurate picture of liberals and conservatives. There have been many studies which back up his claims. But at the end of the day we need both liberals and conservatives to prevent the world from going crazy

  • What a socialist claptrap this is. Basically a liberal dolt standing on stage insulting the majority of the American people for being conservative and religious. Conservatives are not closed to change. In fact we stand for the liberty that allows people to invent and create. We do not stand for an "enlightened" government that force change on anyone. People like this man and ignorant liberals in general would gladly give up their rights to the state as long as the government is run by them.

  • Thumbs up if my Liberal is what?

  • @DDTphoenix you're

  • In this comments thread: a bunch of liberals trying to make themselves feel better for being inherently flawed.

  • @enkelin32 Rand Paul might say something like this.
