That the Ten Commandments are judgmental and, consequently, dangerous for our children to learn in school;

That Bill Clinton was correct when he vetoed welfare reform, correct when he vetoed it again and correct when he proudly signed it into law;

That thou shalt not judge, unless it is for the purpose of exposing conservative white males as angry, gun-toting rednecks and conservative blacks as back-stabbing charlatans;

That the administration created our nation's economic prosperity even if we can't name the Clinton-Gore proposals that caused it;

That Al Gore discovered Love Canal and was the hero of " Love Story ";

- If I didnt know any better I would think the "conservative" republicans in office right now believe in these same principles.. basically bigger government and less individualism.

edit: I also have to add that with 6 years of Republicans having control of the Executive and Legislative branches of government.. government has not gotten any smaller and has actually GROWN.. why? Going by the original post only Liberals believe in that type of thing.

- Furthermore, privatization of social security was one of George Bush's main proposals in the 2004 election, with a majority conservative/republican house AND senate for the past two years why hasnt anything been done?

Look, I am nowhere near liberal but the line between democrat and republican or liberal vs conservative is becoming very blurry.. rather than pointing fingers at the other maybe both (especially conservative) need to take a look at theirselves first and assess what they believe in and where they are headed because its nowhere near what is used to be.. just my :2cents:

So are you saying the Republicans in office are liberal? I think that would be a stretch

that's what it sounded like you were saying.

I do think they are spending to much $$$. but fear not, the Dems are about to blow that out of the water.
