There are two basic kinds of people. There are those who are self owners, and are responsible for themselves. They have no interest in controlling the lives or property of others.

Then there are all the rest who, to various degrees, DO think they should control others and their property. They have various motives, the worst being "for your own good" or "for the children" - especially when they really, truly mean that.

Far as I'm concerned, that's it in a nutshell. The brain damaged controllers sneer because they don't own their own lives,  don't understand why they should... and can't accept that anyone else would even want to do so.

And you realize this behavior spans liberals and conservatives, right?



Yes.

I apologize, but I suppose I didn't define my position clearly enough.

Furthermore, I've been listening to all of them for a little over 30 years. Can't say I ever really noticed that one was nicer than another. I listen for the bottom line. When that is lies, theft and murder... somehow the exact words or tone of voice doesn't matter much to me.

An odd statement coming from someone who refuses to document anything he posts.


Jeff


I document everything I post that isnt so ridiculously over-documented and over-discussed that asking for it is just a game.


No.  What it proves is that you are a liar that will say anything to try and validate whatever ridiculous notion you are attempting to further.

That's odd.  I find some liberals to be as described, and some conservatives (Rush, Palin) to also assume that they are right and everyone else is simply misled.


Wait a minute Steven..

Limbaugh is not condensending at all. He never dumb downs his message nor does he talk down to his audience.

Limbaugh does use satire and mockery, even sarcasim but if one listens, it is always clear that's what he is doing. In fact, he treats his audience as peers and assumes their intelligence is the equal of his.

But condesening he is not.

Nope. Nothing at all condescending about describing anybody who disagrees with him as doing so because they're a sheep too stupid to be capable of thinking for themself...




housesub4you -> RE: Why are liberals so condescending? (2/6/2010 2:56:20 PM)

Jeez just look at all the times he said "retard (40)" to the one time RE said it, yet no one not even "Sarah I have a retard Child"  who bitched about RE being fired cause he said it once....  hmmm politics 




Thadius -> RE: Why are liberals so condescending? (2/6/2010 2:59:37 PM)

You are starting to get off into the territory of the double standards that both parties emply. Not sure if that is the same thing. If we are going to discuss political figures being condescending, perhaps some of the redneck and religious taunts of the last election cycle would be better examples?




housesub4you -> RE: Why are liberals so condescending? (2/6/2010 3:02:38 PM)

True that... 

How you been?  I have had better luck hunting with my car then a gun this season, 2 Bucks 1 doe w/car   0 with hunting license




Thadius -> RE: Why are liberals so condescending? (2/6/2010 3:04:32 PM)

Sorry to hear about the car and the luck.

I will be doing much better as soon as this disk is healed and I am off these damn meds.




housesub4you -> RE: Why are liberals so condescending? (2/6/2010 3:08:04 PM)

But on a condescending note.....  Gee how many times sine 2001 have the GOP stated that if you do not support the President..............


At the time very condescending...but now just political BS.  Times change and one must look at the time when things are said

What you call double standards would be true if the same discussion was held 4 years ago, but it was not

You have just proven the threads point.

There is a big difference between satirical and condenscending. Condenscending would be NOT using the word "sheeple" because the orator believes that his or her audience is too unintelligent to understand its meaning or context.




Moonhead -> RE: Why are liberals so condescending? (2/6/2010 3:23:14 PM)

Satire is based on contempt for its subject: there's little that's any more condescending.




FatDomDaddy -> RE: Why are liberals so condescending? (2/6/2010 3:26:20 PM)

There you go proving the pint of the thread again!

Wonderful.

At war with China, probably. Bush was doing his best to pick a fight there for most of his first year in office until something happened in September, iirc.




housesub4you -> RE: Why are liberals so condescending? (2/6/2010 3:33:34 PM)

No you mean NOT BORROWING from China  jeez get your facts straight
