    It is noticeable that on the floor of the House of Commons they go at one another hammer and tongues but in private and away from politics many of them are on good if not quite friendly terms.

    A bit like two lawyers on opposing sides having a drink or a coffee together after the case has been decided

    Conservatives have to come to term that the Republican Party does not = Conservatism! but instead = Corporations from China, Europe and other Countries.... even Muslim countries

    Liberals have to come to term that the Democratic Party took acting class and pretended to look soooooooooooooooooooooo innocent since Bush was elected

    Nancy Pepsi is still celebrating her Nov 2006 victory

    Conservatives don't understand that Liberals are NOT all lazy, pot-smoking communists.

    Liberals don't understand that Conservatives are NOT all racist fascists who exploit the poor and stupid.

    You want to know the real difference between liberals and conservatives? I'll explain it:

    Liberals: Government controls people directly

    Conservatives: Government controls corporations.. who THEN control the people.

    SAME RESULT.

    As for social issues:

    Liberals: Do whatever you want in your personal life, but you have to listen to the Government in your business life.

    Conservatives: Do whatever you want in your business life, but you have to listen to the Government in your personal life.

    Liberals tend to take an atheistic world-view:

    * Life evolved over billions of years

    * People can be taught moral perfection

    * Without heaven and hell, we live in the here-and-now followed by the Big Sleep.

    * With no Author of life, the universe is governed by arbitrary physical laws and life isa complex self-sustaining chemical reaction.

    (Christian) Conservatives tend to have a biblically-based world view:

    * We are now more-or-less as we were created - there is no evolution.

    * Adam and Eve were originally perfect but sinned, so people are now corrupted by sin.

    * Christ paid for our into heaven - where we will at last be moral, perfect and happy

    * God creates and sustains life and makes it an "inalienable" right (as in "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness").

    Conservatives will never understand why they lose but it's simple really they lose because liberals decided to take the challenge...

    properly on an identical time as the liberal might want to take a seat and communicate approximately it us republicans might come out swinging and take some action. as quickly as we see a situation, some danger to our "national" protection we preserve it.

    No, I think it is because liberals tend to be more venomous when voicing their disagreement. They think I must just be too stupid to get it and it makes them mad at me.

    I try to disagree withOUT being disagreeable. (usually)

    Remember the Star Treck shows where they ran into the 'Borg'? That's such a nice depiction of socialism and 0's vision for the USA. 'resistance is futile. you will be assimilated.'
