What award has become most meaningless in you lifetime?

* 1. The Nobel Peace Prize?
* 2. Time’s “Man of The Year”?

Tough choice

They ought to rename the Nobel Peace prize. Something like the “Liberal Fleece Prize”.

When was the last time a conservative was awarded this item?

Edited on Fri Oct-12-07 07:42 AM by monmouth
and Jimmy Carter, blah, blah. They're more upset that the disgusting rumor from the National Enquirer re the Edwards is not true.... Thank you God that got stopped on a dime. Now questioning "how ill Elizabeth really is" and other disgusting ramblings. They really are miserable people, and when they're "losing" it brings out the worse I've seen in a long time.

10. Well, of course.
Those idiots are absolutely predictable. Al Gore gets a Nobel prize; that means the prize is a meaningless accolade bestowed by a bunch of tree-hugging Scandinavian socialists who also awarded it to commie pinko hippies like Nelson Mandela, Jimmy Carter and Martin Luther King. Therefore it is worthless. Of course, if some right-wing "hero" like Bush had won, it would be a whole 'nother story. But, of course, righties never win *peace* prizes, for obvious reasons.

They are truly sick.

To know that Al's accomplishment is significant and far-reaching enough to IMMEDIATELY provoke the campaign for dis-accreditation.

26. It's okay, Freeps. You get the Nobrain prize.
What I can never understand is why the righterrists continue to wage war on virtually everything and everyone that they disagree with (that's just about the entire rest of the universe right there!).

The moron-n-thief in DC is way beyond any sensible defense at this point. The tactics of intimidation - extended even to a 12 year old - along with the fringes' apparent vehement objection to peace, diplomacy, human rights, American democratic principles, environmental responsibility, and plain ol' logic is equally beyond defense or comprehension.

While I shake my head at the carnage of the opposition, I am grateful that they destroyed themselves from within. Their rage has consumed not only themselves, but all of their "guiding principles" - some of which we were at least once able to respectfully disagree with. But now, all bets are off.

Guess it's time for love it leave it, Freeps. Enjoy your "liberal-free" world. There's a name for that sort of thing, you know. Can you spell T-O-T-A-L-I-T-A-R-I-A-N-I-S-M ???

28. Wikipedia has your answer!

Right-wing authoritarianism

Right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) is a psychological personality variable or "ideological attitude" found to a high degree in people who are authoritarian followers (Authoritarian leaders, on the other hand, tend to score highly in social dominance orientation.)(Source: Altemeyer, 1998)

Right-wing authoritarianism is defined as the co-existence of three attitudinal clusters in a person:

1. Authoritarian submission — a high degree of submission to the authorities who are perceived to be established and legitimate in the society in which one lives.
2. Authoritarian aggression — a general aggressiveness, directed against various persons, that is perceived to be sanctioned by established authorities.
3. Conventionalism — a high degree of adherence to the social conventions that are perceived to be endorsed by society and its established authorities. (Source: Altemeyer, 1996, Chapter 1)

The "RWA" trait is measured by an attitude scale creatively named the RWA scale. The first item on the scale goes, "Our country desperately needs a mighty leader who will do what has to be done to destroy the radical new ways and sinfulness that are ruining us." Persons who strongly agree with this are showing a lot of authoritarian submission ("Our country desperately needs a mighty leader"), authoritarian aggression ("who will do what has to be done to destroy"), and conventionalism ("the radical new ways and sinfulness that are ruining us").

The "right-wing" in right-wing authoritarianism does not refer to someone's politics but to his personality. It means the person has a strong need to submit to those he considers the established authorities in society. Those authorities can have right-wing or left-wing political views. In North America, persons who score highly on the RWA scale tend to support conservative political parties when they take an interest in politics. But in the Soviet Union, high RWAs tended to support the Communist Party--which most people consider a very left-wing political movement. (Source: Altemeyer, 1996, Chapters 1 and 5) Another kind of personality, the "left-wing authoritarian," submits to authorities who want to overthrow the established authorities. But (perhaps naturally) it is harder to find such people. (Source: Altemeyer, 1996, Chapter 9).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_authoritarianism


Attitudinal cluster #2 accounts for the vitriolic personal attacks on anyone who expresses a dissenting opinion. As we have seen so often, right-wingers typically ignore the substance of the message, and instead fiercely and angrily attack the messenger.

When was the last time you could intelligently use the words 'conservative' and 'peace', linked together, in the same sentence? :P
