But not so smart that they claim to know how to redistribute other people's wealth.

Being a heavily right wing environment around here, you guys make your own minds up about what liberals think, because the reality is, you really don't give a ****.

So say what you really think. Be detailed about it. I've had a difficult time deciphering your position from your all-emoticon posts.
We may disagree, and even argue, but so what? Its' fun and maybe we'll learn something.

There's lots of name calling in this thread already, lots of nonsense about "the messiah" and all this other crap that no reasonable person believes but gets repeated to the point of nausea, lots of hate filled ranting, and not one reasonable point. It's the sad truth. Lots of bitter tears from beat up republicans.

A surge of Democratic support for Obama and the enthusiasm for his campaign (as well as his speech delivery methods) causes Conservatives to jokingly refer to him as "the messiah". Then they enjoy pointing out any failures and schortcomings he develops.
So what? We lived with 8 years of Bush-hating. Parties and their supporters do fight and poke fun at each other.

Never before in all our history have these forces been so united against one candidate as they stand today. They are unanimous in their hate for me--and I welcome their hatred.

Me too.

I love your choice of persons to quote.
Picking a guy who arguably excacerbated the Great Depression and who unquestionably tried to pack the Supreme court, as well as being directly responsible for many of the budget-crushing social programs we have today. Awesome. But even more awesome is that you chose to quote him in a discussion about a man who is now being accused of (and sometimes championed for) many of the same things.
It's so ironic, it's almost sublime.
....And then you post a link, presumably to support your position, but then it turns out to be a link to a liberal rant that proves nothing. The article itself could be the topic of a whole new thread.
If you disagree with the concepts presented in the original link that's fine, but you could be a little more specific as to what you disagree with.
It is a fact that the stimulus bill is very expensive and that it must be payed for with tax money. I don't know what parts you agree or disagree with, but I can only assume that you agree with the principle of it.
You present the example of Republicans not opposing the bill, despite the fact that the entire Republican house opposed it and only thre republican senators supported it. I can't make anything of your claim that 22 Republican governors suported the bill because you post no source.
If you've got something to say, just say it. State your position. Otherwise many conservatives will just assume that you fall into the category of "sheep-like liberal"
(and I'm sure liberals have similar terms for us) and you fail to make any kind of point.
