Although he frequently makes a point of finding something charitable to say about his opponents’ arguments, Sen. Barack Obama almost always ends up voting liberal.
“The arguments of liberals are more often grounded in reason and fact,” the Illinois Democrat wrote in “The Audacity of Hope,” a memoir published last year.
In my life to date, I have been able to have rational, reasonably unemotional conversations with (to the best of my recollection) 5 “liberals”. In every other case, the conversations either begin or (fairly quickly) end with an increase in volume, and lowering of actual “reason and fact” into cliche and epithets.
In fact, I am disturbed that the left uses the phrase “Liberal” to describe itself, since the broad definition of Liberal means:
showing or characterized by broad-mindedness; “a broad political stance”; “generous and broad sympathies”; “a liberal newspaper”; “tolerant of his opponent’s opinions”
The Left is ANYTHING but tolerant. No dissent is tolerated from party line. You are part of THEIR SOLUTION, or you are part of the problem.
Not sure where Reason and Fact enter into it…
