ORIGINAL: Tkman117 In leftist ideology, ever killer is a killer. Period. The fact that they're left leaning or right leaning might simply add to motivation, it doesn't make it right. And I'm not entirely sure who Che is and what hagiographies you think I'm reading, but you're clearly clueless. I don't believe all right wingers are killers, extremists, or tea partiers, just as I dont believe the same as those on the left. If those on the left committed horrible crimes, I'd condemn them just as I would any right winger. The problem with right wingers these days is that those who actively supporting the tea party/far right do come off as extremists. What they say isn't too different from what Al Queda says, except you simply have to replace The Quran with The Bible. If the repubs dont come back to the centre, it's unlikely they'll ever win another presidency, because most people aren't that extreme. I as a Liberal dont hate conservatives, and in fact I find more centrist and logical conservative ideology quite convincing at times. But these days, the right wing is not logical, they're ideological and they are for a lack of a better word, extremists. Hell, you got militia members threatening to shoot government officials at a ranch, and similar people threatening to shoot children trying to come to your country for a better life. If that doesnt speak of extremism, I dont know what does. Sure, there are left wing terrorists too, and while I understand why they do what they do, they're actions to achieve what they desire is completely wrong and they should be rightfully punished for it. The world can function without the need of extremism on both sides, and to blanket all liberals as people who are hypocrites about killers is completely wrong. I doubt you actually care about accuracy, because for you it's about vilifying the opposition. You are not an enemy of liberals, you are a person with a particular perspective. But you live with people in a world who share opposite perspectives, and if you can't learn to compromise and reach a moderate middle ground, then what's the point of politics? Seriously? Why not just start killing the people you disagree with? Go the full 9 yards and go full terrorist? The far right is following the constitution...the definition of conservative......is a very strict interpretation of the constitution and the founding the document....The right wing is so far left, conservatism isn't even an option....Liberal, is not a term of freedom in this country, THE DEFINITION is a very loose, and as of right now, outright ignoring the constitution.....ITs the dems who need to come to the center....the republican need to get farther right. So what is farther to the right than this? Outright banning contraception? Forcing women out of the workplace and into the kitchen? Illegalizing gay marriage? Imposing christianity as a state religion? Bringing creationism into schools? Allowing complete freedom to destroy the environment for profit? Giving corporations more power than the people? Denying science? Killing immigrants who simply hope for a better life? Continued tax cuts for the rich? Seriously, what is so extreme about the liberals these days? Because your democratic president is far more right wing than our own conservative government here in Canada, trust me, I live here, I would know.
