Don't forget that Bruce claimed to support Kerry but when asked to explain Kerry's policies, Bruce was a deer in head lights. That was hillarious.

There's plenty celebrities for Bush.. I think the yonger Baldwin is a born again Republican since he became a born again Christian. And then you have Britney Spears' submission to the Commander and Chief. You're also forgetting the whole Michael Jackson and Ronald Reagan thing back in the 80's.

I don't recall Baldwin ever stumping for Bush, as for Britney, she's happy she even remembers to breath and I don't recall her stumping for Bush either.

All things considered, just because the Democratic Party of the United States cant get their shit together doesn't mean liberal ideals world wide are wrong.

Most liberal ideals violate rights the idividual so i'd have to say your statement is VERY debateable.

How do liberal ideals violate the rights of the individual? And don't refer to gun laws please.. in terms of civil liberties, the rights of homosexuals and the crippled, liberals champion their cause.

one for the whole attitude (socialism), distribution of wealth, affirmative action, higher taxes. It would also appear that the liberals tend to only support the causes of minorities. I will mention gun laws because that's something I strongly believe in. Basically I don't like the idea of government telling me how to live my life. That's why I tend to side with the Libertarian philosophy so much. It's based off the premise that we all have certain idividual rights that cannot be taken away. You may not mind getting free ride from those pulling the wagon but is it fair that the pullers of society get exploited?

How do you reconcile with the countless interests of conservatives that are founded on religious values? (Btw, It's nice we can have a friendly discussion like this for once )

mushmaster you are on the right track. my history sucks, but i remember the republicans did not control the house year after year.it was the democrates that had it for decades. so the republicans upgraded themselves. and it worked.

I find it just as oppresive as the socialist agenda. I don't want to be told what I believe is evil because the right says it is. I don't want to be called unamerican because I think what Bush is doing is wrong. My values are based on my observations, NOT the [insert preferred religion] handbook.

I agree that conservatives should try to be more liberal on issues like abortion (excluding late-term), research and things like that. However, to touch on the gay marrage thing...Its not about just recognition so dont let the people on both sides fool you. The governmental institution of marrage was created with certain rights, tax breaks, etc. that were designed with the notion that most families would have kids, most women would make less money than the men and so forth. I would be in favor of creating a seperate institution for homosexuals of both genders taking into consideration thier specific needs.

they've been losing across the board though, and by what i think is a statistically relevent margin.
I said quite some time back that the country was shifting right and was mocked for that statement.
Bush has won twice and the conservatives have picked up seats in each election,, including the mid-term. 11 states passed constitutional amendments prohibiting gay marriage.
If the country isn't shifting to the right what other explanation is there?
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
