Not being mean to all the people who researched the mans policies and known something about government and politics, but I cannot take the overabundance of liberal Obama-insanity in my high school any longer. Being a traditional conservative is so hard these days thanks to Bush ruining the Republican party :(. Is it just me or are conservatives more tolerant than liberals? I take all the liberal talk all day, but the second I say one thing I get ****ed on.:|

well that's because most of the people in high school haven't had to pax taxes, pay bills, hold a steady job...etc...I was a bleeding heart liberal in high school, and probably would have had 5 Obama stickers on the bumper of my car.

But then you move on from high school, and start to see how things run a little differently when you're not under the warm blanket of your parents, school, and age.

I understand what your saying, I am a high school student and a Obama supporter. People are fed up with conservative ideals and I think thats why you probably get a strong reaction from students when you promote consercative policies. To tell you the truth I think it is rediculous when people get angry over politics and I don't really understand why people take politics so personal but they do.

That's why it's important to work towards your overarching goals while you're still young, before everything starts to catch up with you. Not really topic oriented, but I think that's something that drives many people of the republican party who tend to sometimes criticize liberals (but I'm not in any way in saying that that is any of you).

Conservatives ARE more tolerant than "liberals". Go to any board from either side, the conservatives are nicer and more welcoming while the "liberals" would be happier if you died. It only gets worse from here on out, the ones outside high school don't change. You should see college where people get pied for not being "liberal". I am scared for america because these people are taking over.

Just learn to live with it. Whether you're Republican or Democrat, you must get along with people of differing views on a near-daily basis.

Exact opposite at my school. Some "conservatives" were yelling at this black kid at our HS because he supported Obama.

I had to face a similar endeavour (I went to a Private Catholic School it was difficult being an Atheist Democrat), so do what I did, stop caring what those morons say to you and voice your opinion. You'll get respect from people that agree with you and people that disagree with you for not being a coward.

Conservatives and more specifically supporters of McCain are by definition irrational. This isnt even a real matter of debate anymore than the sky is blue or the Earth is round.

Being conservative these days means you believe the only way to fix the country's problems is by continuing the same policies that created the situation in the first place. You dont slam your head against a wall to make pain go away...and you dont support a proven failed system to fix the problems.

And thus we see the all-too-common "anyone who doesn't agree with me is a moron" fallacy.

This is what he is talking about, getting ****** on for not being "liberal". His ideology is rational.

1) He assumed anyone who supports Obama is liberal. 2) He incorrectly assumed that he is being picked on because he is conservative and not because he is wrong. 3) He admitted that George Bush is a problem but somehow the Republican party will magically change once another one is elected.

This is not a rational political stance someone would take.

Just an addition to that, McCain voted with Bush 90% of the time. Voting for McCain is voting for Bush basically.

Bush isn't a conservative. Period. Did John Tyler represent every whig in the whig party? No he didn't. Did Jimmy Carter represent every democrat in the democratic party? No he didn't. George W. Bush was a terrible republican president, he went against all the beliefs of his party. The Iraq-war? That is something a democrat starts (See Korean war and Vietnam War), Republicans END wars and don't start stupid ones. Republicans ended vietnam. Now, The Patriot act = unconstitutional = not conservative. Bailout = against the Republican platform. On the foreign policy front, the Republican party is supposed to focus on non-interventionism, but George W. Bush destroyed that.

The point is, that GWB doesn't represent every republican in the party and a lot of what he did was against the beliefs of the political party all together, but his actions had to be supported by his party during his presidency to keep the party strong. Most republicans voted with Bush BECAUSE they were pressured into it and pretty much had to. You can't blame McCain for it; however, I don't think he was the best choice the Republicans could've put out.

Or 90% of Bush atleast. The only reason McCain is so popular is that there is a large minority of Americans who are still fearful and ignorant of the more reasonable options.

2. And what gives you the right to assume either? You lack the information to make that judgement.

I'm not even consersative but the amount of Obama loving in Seattle truly sickens me. I try to approach every situation with an open mind and it's rather ****ed up how much everyone blindly is in love with Obama. We've even got a bunch of dumb black kids (not dumb because they're black, they're dumb because they're unintelligent) who will flip out if you say anything bad about Obama. It's fanboyism at its worst.

~50% of American voters(roughly the percentage of people who support Obama) are not liberal a few of them even describe themselves as conservatives. To say that Obama is far left and anyone who supports him are as well based on a single report that was discredited awhile ago is ridiculous. 2) He would not of been criticized if he had expressed correct information. 3) He can be conservative all he likes...its his right, but he shouldnt complain when people try to help him.

1. Obama has the farthest left voting record in the senate, he is the most liberal member of the sente and what proof do you have how many conservatives back Obama? A good number?

2. A what gives you the right to determine that? You don't have the right and exposes your mentality that anybody who isn't liberal is wrong.

3. Help him? That is very intolerant and he doesn't need help just because he is a conservative.

1) He assumed anyone who supports Obama is liberal. 2) He incorrectly assumed that he is being picked on because he is conservative and not because he is wrong. 3) He admitted that George Bush is a problem but somehow the Republican party will magically change once another one is elected.

This is not a rational political stance someone would take.

Just an addition to that, McCain voted with Bush 90% of the time. Voting for McCain is voting for Bush basically.

Or 90% of Bush atleast. The only reason McCain is so popular is that there is a large minority of Americans who are still fearful and ignorant of the more reasonable options.

So anybody who doesn't vote for Obama is ignorant? :roll:

Or fearful. Generally the two go together...especially when the primary arguements from the McCain camp nowadays are baseless claims of socialism, sexism, being a domestic terrorist, being a Muslim or being "dangerously" inexperianced. All of these claims assume the intended audience will not actually research the issue themselves. So yes besides the occassional voter who is voting for McCain just because he is a Republican, they are irrational.

I think what your mad about is the fact that they are accepting liberalism not out of any real politcial passion but rather as it is seen as the only socially acceptable ideology amongst the youth. (anything else would be intolerent lol) You have nothing against liberalism but rather the mass political conformism. People talking about how Obama will be change purley because he is a democrat ect. instead of a deeper understanding and attacking other party supporters purely out of affiliation in a fad mentality. Yes?

I consider myself a true liberal. I used to consider myself a libertarian because I grew disilusioned with the stances of mainstream liberalism on issues of personal rights. But I soon grew tired of libertarians as well because of their uncaring let everyone else sink mentality.

Your right. Those small percentage of Americans who are generally disatisfied with both parties will not likely vote for either. I was more refering to people who were voting for McCain over Obama.

It's not a small percentage. There's a huge amount of Americans who can vote who do not, and most of those who do are choosing between the lesser of two evils.

I was refering to the people who actually vote but tend to vote for a third party candidate. I know a large percentage of people dont vote during election...it usually has to do with a mixture of apathy and something better for them to do(work, college, vacation).
