While all the facts presented there are liberal lies, I wonder if anything at all of reality can be seen by conservatives. I find it fascinating that the recent budget passed with something like 162 to 68 Republican votes which would indicate to me that conservative denial has its limits. How did it come to pass that the Republican total refusal to negotiate exploded in Republican faces and a schism of such proportions emerged, with the lunatic right losing in a major reversal of past policy even in their own party. What do you suppose it is that causes conservatives to face reality they've denied for so long. Is there any hope for the extreme of the extreme, that they too may be able to see or do we write them off as brain dead.

My guess is that when conservative denial based on unpleasant reality creates a reality that is even more painful, the old reality bubble dissolves into something new. Sadly, that's an awful lot of shit to have to eat before reality crashes in. Maybe conservatives should start working on ways to help themselves. You know what I mean. They are already very good at helping themselves, but I mean real help, not just ego greed.

Your hatred of conservatives is just you looking into a mirror. Why do you hate yourself?

Moonie, were your parents strict conservatives by chance?

I asked you to think of everything you think is true of me as true and then to consider if it makes a difference. I do not say a lot about who I am because I know that if I am old I will be called senile and if young, immature, educated, an ivory towerist, uneducated, an ignorant peon, and so on and so fourth forever and ever. Ask your psychologist friend. What we do when we want to deflect is to project our bigotry on others.

There is nothing wrong with your analysis except that you want to focus on some fault you can find in me to help deny the truth I tell you. You fail to understand that I can know nothing about you I can't or haven't seen in myself. This is how I know more about you than you know about yourself. I died to everything I used to hold sacred. I don't have that ego to protect. I became a nobody.

But my parents were democrats and later I got a second Mom I just buried at sea after taking care of her while she was dying of cancer. She loved me and was a deep conservative in denial of many things. I spoke at her memorial to many Republican women as she was an official of a large Republican women's club about the strength of character she imparted to me, the fact that despite all our differences she still loved this liberal. If you can be loved by a conservative of her dimension, you know you're OK. She was so sure of her truth she made me a believer. Sometimes still when the phone rings I jump thinking she needs me.

Any attempts at honesty ended there.

Why? When I saw that one I thought it was just nonsense but I figured it was referring to some event where idiot was used instead of some other word. Do you throw away all your pistachios if you find one that tastes like dead worm? I just eat more quicker to get rid of the taste. You should try that instead of ending things with in a permanent state of outrage. That kind of emotional stress could cause bad cholesterol or something.

So an article that just a few sentences already has nonsense in it yet you link to it like gospel. If I find a pistachio that tastes like a dead worm in the bag, the whole bag goes in the trash. Especially if it is in the first few I eat, much like that article. I am not going to keep eating hoping the rest turn out ok. No matter how much truth you surround it with, bullshit is still bullshit.

Do you really think that anybody who eats pistachios believes your bull shit?

Your posts throughout the forum ring true with her assessment and in many cases you post exactly what she expects you to post.

A "liberal" takes the love of a conservative and funnels it into hatred. I'm not surprised.

Do you not see how mean that is? But of course you don't. I'd be really pissed off too if I didn't know the torture you went through to make you that way. As we treat the least among us so will we be treated. All that meanness you put on me you live with every day. It's inside you, poor, poor thing. If I am like you then you can pity me.

Mars and Venus conservative?? Not likely! My guess would be that they are both part of the group that sorta surrounds the Son... Protectors of the truth.

This is your take on Paul Ryan and other big gov Republicans.

That them moving towards a status quo budget is some implosion of reality for them? They were never one of us to begin with. They are Neocon. They are Democrat-lite. The second side of a duopoly coin that has divided and conquered the American ballot box since before we were born.

They are the enemy.

President Bush should should have taught you that. He spoke in our name, received our votes, and betrayed everything we stood for. You take more men like that and claim they are conservative. No Moonbeam, you don't even begin to understand conservatives.

George W. Bush, for example, refused to admit in a presidential debate that he is an idiot.
Yet Barack Obama, who thanked himself for inviting himself to the White House to meet himself because that's what the TelePrompter told him to say, who famously could not get through a door in the White House because it was a window, and who after five years of being President is still unable to properly pronounce "Corpsmen" is obviously the smartest President we've ever had. Yeah, obviously it's conservatives who are in denial.

That isn't even an article. It's just mental masturbation by someone unqualified for any other mental activity.

Don't tell anybody but Obama was born in Kenya.
