As always imsohappythatiama is right.

Maybe I'm a bit bitter from Pettitte being a total frigging idiot but I feel like Canadians should just shut their silly little mouths up and stop talking as if they're US citizens with voting rights. I also find it funny that people hate Rush but they think Moore is a reputable person - get real.

Dean? Don't get me started on that idiot. He's from the NYC elite and somehow knows the poor man. He dodges the war by saying he has health problems and goes skiing as opposed to some of the other Democrats. Now he has it in his head that he wants to remove the amount of income that is taxes for social security. Is the guy an absolute idiot?? Social security is for retirement not to plug up budget holes. If you take SS out of someone making 10 million a year, you better damn well provide him with one hell of a retirement.

Was listening to Sex Pistol and it's the first thing that popped into my head.

Notice that conservatives on this site have pretty much left the "Top 10 Conservative Idiots" thread alone, while liberals on this site have taken it upon themselves to counter most things posted in the "Top Ten Liberal Morons" thread.

Why is this necessary? Conservatives know that liberals don't agree with them, and vice versa. Same with the pro- and anti-Britney folks. If one side wants to start a thread in which they talk about why they perceive their side to be best, you KNOW you're going to disagree and start a fight for no good reason. Why do people just inherently enjoy in stirring up drama?

Now, don't get me wrong--I am all for public discourse and the free marketplace of ideas. But what's going on in this thread here is just a lot of liberals coming in to say "you're wrong, you nasty, one-sided conservatives," without any salient points, nor (more importantly) any interest in actually engaging in discourse. Instead you just seem to want to agitate because you can.
This post says what I've been thinking for MONTHS whenever a political or religious thread hits the fan.

Would any of our resident liberals like to answer this question?

Is their anything wrong wanting to know the reasons why each of them were morons? Someone gave their reasons why, which satisfied my curiousity.

Both sides make comments and remarks. Not just liberals, adduncan. A comment like yours could stir up as much drama as any other thread could.

True--drama comes from all directions, no matter what the topic, depending on the day, phase of the moon, whatever.

PS--it was imsohappythatima's post that I was quoting, don't forget her too.

PPS-- you didn't answer the question tho.

True to her defense she said "Conservatives know that liberals don't agree with them, and vice versa. " Plus she commented how conservatives mainly with a few exceptions left the conservative idiots thread alone which is true. You singled out liberals on all the threads dealing with relgion and politics. I was just sayin if u look back at past politics threads you will see both sides argue almost equally depending on the topic and how gun ho people were about it.

I disagree. IMHO based on what I've seen of these threads, those claiming to be liberal on average post more responses than conservatives and are much more vehement about their POV. Yes, I've read them. Because of imsohappythatiama's post I was prompted to think of other threads that have followed the same pattern as this one.

PS--you still didn't answer imsohappythatiama's question from her post.

I can't speak for other liberals but if I ask a question like the reasons the conservatives thought those listed were morons, its just so I can understand the opposing view better. If someone on take a jab that can be seen as uncalled for and they know it will cause controvesry its both sides faults. The one who posted the questionable post and the one who replied to it. It works vice versa for either side you are on.

I've been trying to behave/restrain myself on this thread. I asked for reasons because the link that I posted had a list of reasons why those conservatives were disliked, and I was curious as to why ThetaPrincess24 felt that these particular liberals were morons.
