Default Cheney shoots someone (I'm not kidding)

To that we can add the fact that the 'conservative thought' is much
easier to present in sound bite fashion. Not that it's better
thought, just easier to put into a few, oft repeated, words.


No, it's better. Trust me.

A conservative can find his "there is one right way, in all
situations, at all times, no more thought needed" answer on a given
topic, refine it to the minimum words and Bush-like recite his manta,
each and every time that topic comes up.


You're, of course, assuming that Bush IS a conservative, which he has proven
he's not. And, BTW, many times there IS just one right way to do things. I
just wish these freakin' political hacks could choose that way once in a
while.

A liberal is forced, by
his beliefs, to actually consider other points of view and the idea
that different solutions need to be applied to different problems.


Yeah, once he's told what to believe. ;-)

When he tries to explain that far more thoughtful position it comes
off as 'wishy washy' to a public trained to decide by what they are
told to decide by how many times they've seen the exact same ad, over
and over, telling them what to think.


Talk about yer oversimplification! Hoo boy.
