Why are conservatives so angry?
By the names you'd expect that liberals are fire breathing monsters, and conservatives are calm shy moderate silent fellows. Its rather the opposite as I see it.

You're making a generalization about conservatives based on a very vocal, but small percentage of them.
I know a lot of conservatives in real life, and none of them insult liberals and Democrats the way the YA conservatives do. Yes, many are angry, at politicians, especially Obama, and some are angry at the people who voted for the Democrats. But normal conservatives do not have tantrums like so many YA cons do.
The conservatives on YA who are loud and prolific probably feel helpless and unable to change the status quo, and only feel powerful when they can "win" an argument with a liberal. "Winning" by having their friends or the asker select theirs at the best answer does not actually mean they won the argument. That's why I think "Best Answer" is a misnomer. It should be called "Most Popular Answer."

Because liberals are destroying this country asking for a fair tax, investment into america's future, taking care of our elderly and our military veterans. Liberals ask for too much when they should only be lowering our taxes too thank us for their jobs. Conservatives want you too see things their way, and just can't understand why you don't support their policies. It's just as hard for a liberal too understand why doing those things would destroy this country. If the debt does not add up, a liberal would rather tax then take away promises too our society, our mothers and fathers, our grandparents.

Perhaps because our country is being diminished every day and many Liberals don't seem to care - in fact they seem to want it.
