jbe, remember a couple of weeks ago you were trying to define and identify a liberal or conservative? Well, someone emailed me an interesting list to identify a liberal. Thought you would find it amusing. To be a liberal you have to believe that: 1. Businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity. 2. The same public school teacher who can't teach 4th graders how to read is qualified to teach them about sex. 3. Trial lawyers are selfless heroes and doctors are overpaid. 4. Capital punishment is bad, but abortion on demand is good-in short, you support protecting the guilty and killing the innocent. 5. Guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat than nuclear weapons in the hands of the Red Chinese. 6. Global temperatures are affected not by cyclical, documented changes in the brilliance of the sun, but by yuppies driving SUV's. 7. Gender roles are artificial but being gay is natural. 8. Self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it. 9. The military, not corrupt politicians, start wars. 10. The NRA is bad, because it stands up for certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good, because it stands up for certain parts of the Constitution. 11. The AIDS virus is spread by lack of funding. 12. Standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides are not. 13. Conservatives are racists, but black people couldn't make it without your help.
