My grandfather was one such person. But somewhere along the line the Republican party got co-opted by very rich, who seized on cultural issues to form the unholy alliance we all know and love (not). Old news; my point is that "libs" vs "cons" is quite a misnomer at this point. A true conservative would support separation of church and state, a woman's sovereignty over her own body, an individual's right to marry whomever they please, etc. What we have instead is a Republican party with increasingly deep theocratic roots (intertwined with deep roots of greed), and Democrats left to battle back. If we define conservative as upholding the intent and values of the Founding Fathers, which party deserves that label? Anyway, the point is that I don't think conservatives per se are beyond reason and logic. The problem is trying to reason with two distinct groups of people: the Masters of the Universe types who are blinded by greed, and the sort of small-minded and/or mentally-ll person who would embrace a theocracy with fervor precisely because it gives them easy answers so that they don't have to think. These "lib" vs "con" dialogs have exactly the same feel as the evolutionist vs creationist debates: one side just doesn't have a rational, reason-based belief system. And the other side keeps thinking they can get somewhere with reason.<br />--mathgeekAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-71509861291992880142014-01-18T19:14:02.976-09:002014-01-18T19:14:02.976-09:00Anyone with two functioning brain cells would inst...Anyone with two functioning brain cells would instinctively know the five star reviews for any Palin's book is fake.

It's the nature of the business. I'm not saying there aren't a few honest politicians but face it, the personality profile that tends to be interested in running for public office tends towards the narcissistic end of the spectrum, as well it should because who else but a person who has high self esteem, love for self and great confidence would even step into the political arena to encounter all of the mudslinging and character assassination that comes with it? Often those who run for office do so for self and not for others, and often times do it to enrich themselves and prepare themselves for a future career as a lobbyist or as a private business person catering to the government with a sweet guarantee of government contracts due to their time spent "serving the public". The system is full of shysters on both sides, and the system is indeed broken.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-45509510216299905652014-01-18T11:51:00.867-09:002014-01-18T11:51:00.867-09:00All you have to do is click on any name of any per...All you have to do is click on any name of any person who posts a positive comment to Palin's Facebook page to view their profile.
