Thank God, though, there are more liberals than there are conservatives. And with all the music and drugs, we tend to procreate more.......you know how that goes........look at Bill Clinton. With procreation on our side, future populations will remain proportionately more liberal...........its a genetic thing.

Scary. An entire generation of $50 Million, sax-playing talk show hosts.

It will be interesting watching Clinton and Oprah duke it out for ratings...

Well, I have a different view.......conservatives make up 91.5% of the totalitarian gov'ts in the world.

The majority of the totalitarian countries in the world are communists, far from being conservatives. There isn't that many truely totalitarian regimes left. I think you mean authoritarian. The "right wing military dictatorships" that run many of these countries aren't really anything like what we call conservatives in the US but at least you can reasonably argue that there is some sort of connection. However even when you include all of them it doesn't amount to 90+%

there are more liberals than there are conservatives.

Both terms are so ill defined (or more specifically have multiple changeing definitions) that I don't think you can reasonably state which group has more people. I know there are more registered Democrats the Republicans but its not a huge difference and many of those registered Democrat are not really liberal.

And with all the music and drugs, we tend to procreate more.......you know how that goes........look at Bill Clinton.

Oral sex doesn't cause conception.
