Liberal's kids generally don't do the shit those kids did. Most of my friends taught their kids to be compassionate and most are very nice and few are venal. This is anecdotal stuff..........it has little bearing in reality. I could give you examples of bad liberal children but it would serve no purpose. And I could give you examples of very good conservative children. In fact, my best friend in high school was the son of a guy who ran for governor under the Republican flag. My friend was very bright.......very responsible......and was willing to share his more affluent life style with a friend who was less fortunate. During summers, his father expected him to work at the family steel mill........on the open hearth where temps were consistenly over 90º.......all day. Trust.....it was not an easy job. Paul went to school at RIT.......where he got straight A's/Dean's List 4 years straight. At the end of those 4 years his father gave him a compact car.....not a Mercedes or a Beamer...........but an American compact. Paul then went on to the Chicago School of Business. IMO Paul was a son any father would be proud of.......liberal or conservative.......and I valued his friendship immensely. The conservative movement in the US has gone off a rail........there is no question but that doesn't mean there aren't good conservatives left. There are...............they just don't have control of their party.
