Thread Name: BS: Conservative, Liberal, or Human Being?
Subject: RE: BS: Conservative, Liberal, or Human Being?
There you still don't get it. These labels get in the way of basic decency and our ability to co-exist. We know it is inherenently wrong to deny water or food to hungry people but the spin is that they should have gotten the same breaks as a well fed person. The spin is that tree huggers are responsible for forest fires and the residential damage done to folks who decided it would be cool to live in a tinder box. The spin is that everyone has a right to send thar kids off to private schools if they don't like the public system and tough sh*t if you can't afford to. Yore kid can work in a cannery or rake leaves in MG's yard when he/she grows up. Both sides spin are true yet unsound at the same time. Liberals come off as childish and foolish, Conservatives come off as pigs at a trough. Is there no middle ground these days?
