If you think liberals believe all 3 of those things, then I believe you're mistaken--especially about the third one.

1. They don't say that - but clearly support for the longest war in US history with no end in sight is eroding.
2. Ask any one on medicare (universal health care for those over 65) if they don't want and would be willing to give it up. You might get 1%. The biggest complaint is it is not Universal enough. Seniors still become destitute if needing long term care, as medicare coverage is very limited there. What American's want is affordable quality medical care available to all who need it. We don't have that and Universal health care is one of the most efficient ways to attain it. More efficient than the current insurance reform which really is not universal health care.
3. Liberals do not believe this. But they do believe is debating with facts to counter ignorance, unlike conservatives who go to great lengths to substitute dogma and talking points for critical thinking skills.

The first two are statements of fact.
The third one is a belief you apparently claim is held by liberals. You are probably right about that. But liberals also think that Americans are being kept ignorant by corporate interests. And that corporate interests are pushing for war in far-away countries and preventing universal health care despite public opinion (that's a fact, not an opinion).

Those are your own beliefs:
I don't have any need to reconcile the issue that Republican think "A majority of Americans are ignorant" .
You disparage Americans for wanting single-payer health care to remove the excess profits being drained from our health care budgets, or that the wars have gone on too long and should be over by now.
Your poor thoughts on your fellow Americans are your problem to resolve.

as long because of the fact the video activity is criminal they have the fabulous to produce it. on the comparable time in case you sense that it is revolting then you definately've the fabulous to voice your opinion to the contents and boycott or protest courteously. do only no longer circulate that line and take action that ought to disrupt the production or sale of the activity like the pupils did at Columbia college against the Minute men. The Minute men have been asked to come back there and talk and there have been human beings there that easily needed to take heed to what they had to declare and the pupils led to a disruption of this methodology and shouted down the speaker subsequently stifling their genuine to unfastened speech. If the pupils did no longer elect to take heed to what they had to declare then they could desire to have stayed away or protested in front of the development. we won't be able to develop right into a unique us of a the place all and sundry could think of the comparable way and there is not any room for theory or talk. We additionally won't be able to develop right into a rustic that may not enable others to pursue their freedom if we don't consider them. i've got faith which you would be able to coach your pupils that human beings have the fabulous to unfastened speech and that human beings have the fabulous to merchandise to the content cloth of that speech on the comparable time and that's what makes this us of a so super. And to this point as Fox information is going do no longer knock it except you have tried. do no longer basically settle for what you have heard.

Withdraw the troops and Al Qaeda gains ground. The American people must have universal health care or the insurance and drug companies gain ground. George Bush's no child left behind, left too many children behind.

liberals want everything and don't want to give up anything of theres, if the president told liberals we can have world peace, green energy and just about everything they want done and in exchange they have to give up all there money/tv/computer/internet/air conditioning then they would try to impeach the president. like obama what liberals say/do and what they really want are very different.

Only 1 is a liberal view. the other two are right-wing views when they have been reduced to minority power.
