OK so it's not quite statistical, but I just "felt" I'd been noticing even more than the usual number of anti-bush threads lately. So my front-page count came up as follows:

Anti-bush, anti-business, etc. : 27 (55%)
Anti-kerry, pro-business, etc: 10 (20%)
Undetermined: 12 (25%)

Discuss :)

In my mind, it's a combination of 3 factors.
1) College kids. Who wasn't liberal in college?
2) The intarweb. Most conservatives have jobs, families, etc. and are too busy providing value to our nation to prowl the intarweb ;) That, and the intarweb is "new" so conservatives would generally embrace it slower than liberals...
3) The geek factor. Geeks frequent AT, and geeks generally are liberals.

Why are you linking anti-bush & anti-business? It's like you're suggesting in order to be anti-Bush you have to be anti-business. What's up with that?

Pro Business, Anti-Union, or vice versa. Pretty simple really. Or perhaps some of these threads were pro-bush and I just missed it? Check them out and see for yourself...

Please do not feed the Liberals.
There intellectual diets are scientifically controlled
and can't handle this kind of stimulus.

I sure as hell wasn't. Funny how the young idealists fumbled for cogent responses when their dogma was questioned and by a black libertarian no less. Oh the horror...

:D

A Black Libertarian? What is that, statistically, about .0000000000001 percent of the population? :)

Well, at least he isn't a Black Klanner. :)
