Why do liberals consistanly do this?

They consistently call conservatives mean rich people in one breath then in the next call them uneducated idiots. Which is it? By nature it takes a smart person to get really rich. They then call conservatives greedy but statistics show conservatives give more to charities than libs. I'm convinced it's because the common liberal are greedy, liars that are more concerned with what other people think than what really matters and they think because they are then everybody else is too. Then they complain that conservatives want to control the bedroom meanwhile the libs want to control every other aspect of life. Hmm. Just a bunch of hypocrites.

    "statistics show that conservatives give more to charities than libs (sic)"

    That is ONE study by a professor named Arthur Brooks at Syracuse, and it had a very flawed methodology. It counted religious tithes as charity, but I say any money that goes toward Spreading the Gospel is NOT charity-- it's politics!

    Well, I would guess it takes all kinds. Certainly the filthy rich conservatives are not going to get their hands dirty. So they need the uneducated conservatives to do the heavy lifting for them. It does not take brains to inherit wealth, so not all rich conservatives necessarily have education either.

    Greedy seems applicable when all they try to do is attain and increase their wealth at anothers expense. Same is true about liars, seems to have their fair share of those as well. It is a fallacy that the conservatives do not seek to control the people, they just do not like the government stepping between them and their proper authority over the peasants.

    "By nature it takes a smart person to get really rich."

    You are SO far off base it's ludicrous!

    I am one of the dumbest people I know (though I am far from stupid), but have more money than almost anyone I know...

    "Conservatives" are folks who honestly believe there is a single best answer to every question, and "liberals" are people who entertain the notion that there are usually many roads that lead to the same destination....

    What they call liberalism today (some stripe of socialism/fascism/progressivism) is a result of mental defect (keep doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result each time) that causes the inability to properly process evidence... Actually classical liberalism was a very good basis for any society.

    With the libs..it's always easier to be charitable if your

    using somebody Else's money.

    It's just that simple Mad Marv, and the facts show the conservatives are way

    more generous with they're money than those libs that just want to take.

    Some things are just not as they seem, huh. Kind of like so many people believe that most

    big money from wall street goes to the GOP....when in truth the lions share by far goes into

    the pockets of those nasty dems. Go figure, huh.

    Thanks for asking,

    Probably the same reason conservatives consistantly refer to liberals as educated elitists in one breath and welfare mooches in the next. Which is it?

    Thanks for confirming one stereotype about conservatives, Mr. I'm-going-to-make-assumptions-about-the-common-liberal: they are bigots. You obviously have only learned about liberals based on what non-liberals have told you.

    ever read about the Henry Ford/Protocols trial? You can be a rich conservative and an uneducated idiot moron at the same time.

    "By nature it takes a smart person to get really rich." Tell that to Jessica Simpson.

    Anyways you're obviously just having a crazy person rant.

    Because liberals are jealous of success, they can't reach it, so they lash out at those people who are successful. The problem with liberals is they think and make decisions based on emotion instead of using logic and common sense.

    They don't. Why do conservatives overgeneralize and lie about liberals all the time?
