First I was kidding tejek. It was a joke. gheesh-lol.

Tell me one thing I have ever posted that was not a liberal idea.

And I have studied liberals and conservatives my whole life like some people study the planets. Two separate species IMO.

I consider all conservative thinking basically and quite simply, very unsophisticated.

There is a reason only 6% of scientists are Republican and over 80% lean democratic.

That you seem to have a problem telling the difference between right and left I can understand your feelings.

PS if you applied statisitcal measures (say a simple t test)to two populations where one was 6% and the other 80% you would be pretty sure something other than chance was going on.

E.g. two acres of land growing corn where one grows 6,000 lbs and the other grows 80,000 lbs.

What that something is, IMO, is simplicity e.g. Palin and Beck and Rush, or criminals like Nixon and Cheney.

PPS I had dinner at a fisheries professor friend of mine the other night and I said Palin thinks at the high school level and he said not that high.

I used to teach high school and he is probably right.
Levels of thinking have levels.

And he is the most honest, sober and nice person you ever met.
