Well, if you watch Fox News all the time, I can see how you can get that impression. "The liberal media, liberal this, far left that, destroying family values, blah blah blah"

And your point is? Many of the founding fathers were liberals. That doesn't change because of connotations that moronic pundits slap on. >_>

Librerals and Conservatives really don't differ that much beyond a few issues, like abortion and gun control. And for most people, its only one or two things. Its more the extreme left or rights who tend to get the spot light.

i didnt ask for anyones support, i never do when i get it its because someone chooses to give it to me. I mean you asked a question, i answered and you made a baseless remark. you do that a lot.

Your remark about my intellect say something different than your words

And you have tried the same rhetorical tactic other times in the past

I am not your enemy i am just a guy that have some opinion differences whit you and that is not a reason to you to be aggressive even when my English is not near perfection

the labels have meaning though. thats why we label in the first place. Neocons actually have a lot more in common with big government liberals than they do anything with real conservatism. The only thing bush is really conservative on is social issues which goes directly against the idea of real conservatism.

Paleo = Ron Paul

Neo = George Bush.

How? There are very few actual liberals in the government in a position to have a great effect on the country. the last liberal to run for president was McGovern. If anything it is the conservatives that are destroying america.

Well, he said conservative, not paleo-conservative. So i'd guess it was raegan, but then again he increased government spending, which increased its size.

Well eisenhower was more moderate than conservative, as he endorsed and incouraged social programs, even saying that if any party were to try to abolish them then they will never be heard from again in american politics. That said, i like ike, definitly my favorite post FDR republican president, from his military industrial complex speech to his endorsement of social programs, great president.

The point is, yeah sure the Founding Fathers were "liberals" but most of them were very conservative in our way of thinking. Jefferson for one was very active against large government, as were several other founding fathers. So by our way of thinking they were conservatives.

If you ever ask something like 'is A destroying B?', you need to have a clear definition of A, B, and the nature of change.

His actions don't reflect that, though. I'm not denying it, I'm just saying that he was liberal in practice. I think the Louisiana Purchase supports this notion; how can one maintain small government while doubling the size of the country?

the original intent of the federal government wouldnt need to become bigger even if there were more states.
