13. liberal
I am as liberal as they come!!!

I do believe in the DP though, just because I dont want
hardened criminals and murderers running around.

I dont like flag burning, but I accept the fact that
we have free speech

I believe in a strong defense, not to be used to invade other countries that have not attacked us

I think religion should be banned, and everyone just believe
in GOD and let people live their own lives

The tax laws should be replaced, and made fare for everyone
no more ridiculous deductions

6. Nice does not mean failing to stand up for oneself.
Just because one is nice doesn't mean they are a doormat.

7. Green smiley beats yellow smiley!
Edited on Thu Jul-28-05 05:46 PM by Moochy
be nice to people in general, but as to individual jerks, hate away!!!

I, Moochy, the self-appointed spokesperson for California, give you a permission to hate on the right wing and left wingers who you so deem as deserving of said hatred.

be nice to the moderates no matter what until at least after 2008.

11. Tell them that's the old-style liberal
The new ones are nasty, like conservatives.

14. 'thanks for the info...
right now I'm BEING 'nice.' I'm not decking your sad, uninformed ass, fuckwit."

Or "According to you? I'll define myself. I don't need your 'help' for that."

a lot of times they'll preface that with "I thought..." Of course you jump on that with something like "You THINK? I had NO idea. It doesn't show."

I've used stuff like that on occasion. That sort of shit springs from 'The other' attitude the big propaganda machines use to create disharmony. "The Vietnamese don't feel the same way we do" was a big one during Viet Nam. I am guilty of buying into it for the right, but fuck 'em. They are so used to fobbing the left of with that crap. And people less left than me are so use to saying "yes, dear" When my brother dropped that shit on me a couple years back, I shot back with "What make you think I'm a Liberal, you asshole? I look over my right shoulder at Liberals, and they're a small dot on the horizon."

18. Thank you!
Those are great...

and thanks to everyone else for all your suggestions. The moment has passed, but I'll remember these for the next time that canard is used. Usually I just ignore it. I'm done letting this crap slide. :)
