Good Questions
60Some questions about politics
I don't necessarily have answers to all of these questions, but they are questions I feel need to be asked a lot more than they are asked. Some of them aren't asked at all, and while you might think you have an immediate answer to some of these questions, it would be worth your time to throw out the first answer that comes to mind and take a few days to think about it, especially for the answers you may have that invalidate the questions.

Interestingly enough, most of the questions posed were liberal in point of view.
That IS interesting, isn't it? However, it doesn't invalidate any of the questions. It's much more productive to argue for or against something based on it's merits, not because it's a Liberal or Conservative idea.
And for the record, I think the Democratic party is a collection of incompetent puppets who mostly bend over for corporate America... just like the Republican Party.

too many to answer, but if you disagree with a conservative then you're a liberal, Liberal is a bad word meaning clueless out of touch moron in conservative english! (we have our own language) now you can take that question off the list. thanks
