First the majority of minorities, women, gays and kids feel their is a war all those groups. False. You say they are wrong. How do you figure. It is happening right in front of their face. No its not happening at all. In the past it could be said to be happening, with gay people discriminated against and private, consensual, non-commercial, adult, gay sex occasionally subject to prosecution, and with all the government and government mandated discrimination against minorities (of course Democrats had a lot to do with all of that), but that's in the past. And Texas has legislation that would ban about 90% of all abortion clinics. It might (and the claim is probably dubious anyway) ban 90% of them as they are set up now, but a number of them could change to meet the new requirements. In any case banning 100% of them wouldn't be a war on women (it would be a war on abortion clinics). a war on women, as do most kids. Now your just getting silly.

First the majority of minorities, women, gays and kids feel their is a war all those groups. I don't disagree that many in this group believe that to be true. However, the majority of human beings are always more than willing to point the finger at someone else when they have problems and not at themselves. This is a classic victim mentality and you have the liberals telling them over and over that someone is out to get them, suppress them and make their lives miserable. However, it isn't the conservatives who are waging war - it is the liberals who seek to forever lock these folks into dependency on them.
