I'll list each one and post the liberal coutner to it: I'll try; 1) <<They think it is morally wrong to heap debt on our kids.>> liberal answer: It is an easy fact the Republcians have heaped the most debt on the kids. 2) They believe that most government belongs to that States. liberal answer: we are one country and there is a role for a strong central government. 3) Sometimes they think government doesn't provide a strong enough military. liberal answer: conservatives do not understand we spend much more on our military than any othe other country and are perfectly safe and wasting our money. 4) They think that unnecessary regulation slows the economy. (ever had a building permit problem?). liberal answer: most regulations have a good reason. conservatives say this without actually visualizing which regulations we could do without. I am in real estate and most regulations are very valuable. 5) They believe deep down that life begins at conception - I don't agree but I do see their argument. liberal answer: That problem is a dilemma pitting womens rights against religious beliefs. We liberals have made a tough existential decision. Conservatives don't believe in existentialism. 6) They believe in family and think that sometimes the government takes over too much of that role. liberal answer: we have to act in the best interest of the society as a whole. 7) They believe that democrats are chipping away at the Constitution - think second amendment. liberal answer: they don't even really understand the constitution or the atiquated the need for the second ammendment in modern times. 8) They think there is lots of oil if we just drill enough. liberal answer: we must pay better atttention to our environement which we are destroying. Your turn. Just list - don't argue the points I listed as many of them I completely disagree with. I'm most definitely not a conservative. Nor am I a liberal.
