2. Well that and...
The fact that most liberals think conservatives are wrong but are entitled to believe the way they do so long as they don't cram it down everyone else's throat, while many conservatives now think you are wrong for simply not being conservative.

3. And conservatives think you don't have a right to think as you do.
You must think like them and they have a duty to do anything/everything to make you do that.

5. I always thought that the conservative end of that
was more like:

What conservatives value is whatever works out best for them, at that moment in time, and screw everyone else.
