Because that was his point and all.

I wonder how many more things it will take for the conservatives to realize that it's not that the entire world is taken over by a vast liberal conspiracy... but just how few people actually have their viewpoint.

Who controlled the .gov up until this last election? I seem to have forgotten.....

So? Please explain how that is relevant to the fact that on a worldwide scale, the right wing in america is so far off the deep end to the right that... very few people actually have their viewpoint.

Which is what I said.[/quote]

Which is it, are we talking about a world wide scale or just this country? If you want to talk on a worldwide scale then this whole country is conservative, even the liberals....

Even if you want to compare conservatives in this country to the rest of the world, we are hardly "off the deep end". Of course there is a small minority of conservatives that are extreme, just like the left has a small minority of extremists.

This will be about as successful as that conservative Bible-thumping Wiki clone.

Most likely, but at least it won't cost as much as Air America....:laugh:

Well, I was commenting on your "How few people have their viewpoint".

Apparently enough have thier viewpoint to give them the .gov for a decade, and they didnt lose it by much this time out. And if it hadnt been for the war they may very well have kept power this time around too.

So, apparently quite a few people have the conservative viewpoint.

As for the worldwide scale, I dont rightly care. People in other countries dont vote in out elections, so that has absolutely no bearing on it.

Yep, anyone that disagrees with liberals should be cast out, glad to see you are the party of compassion and civil rights....:roll:
Well, obviously conservatives can't handle the real world - you know, the place where people have different opinions than they do. Instead of pushing some "fair and balanced" nonsense, they've gone straight to total right-wing bias. They're not fixing the problem, they're contributing to it.

Did you read that somewhere?

Wasn't that the conservative tagline for awhile? "If you don't like the way this country is being run, get out!" Or something to that effect. "America - love it or leave it," that sort of thing. Your own medicine doesn't taste very good, does it?

Nope, I've never felt that way about the other half of the country, even if some others have. Sorry, I don't follow the herd mentality like some of you libs do. Baaaaaahhhhhh

Or was your post just another "well conservatives did it too so that makes it ok"?

Wait what? You want people with differing opinions than yourself to go live on another planet but you accuse others of not being able to handle the real world where people have different opinions? :confused:

Wow, you continue to NOT get it, don't you? What I'm saying is that there's a trend, wherein conservatives seem to need their own version of everything. Why is that? I'm not asking them to go anywhere, but once planet earth becomes too liberal for them, what choice will they have?
