"Science is flipflopping" - at least it doesn't rely on something based on faith like creationism and the intelligent design most talk about
"The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, (MS)NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN and BBC are not credible sources" - no, the FAUX News they watch makes them think that's how all news should be. And if not credible, it's because they cover up for McCain and Bush.
"Liberalism doesn't work.
Liberalism is where:
- The hard-working pay for the lazy. (no, liberalism rewards hard work by making it easier to get off the ground - and not all rich are hard working) - The harder-working get punished for their effort through added taxes. (Again, not all rich are hard working. And the rich don't exactly hurt by paying higher taxes. At the same time, the country's infrastructure is more secure.) - The people who wait to have children until they can afford them pay for people who can't afford them. (undertones of racism, and if they have this view, why are they against choice?) - Take possession of brilliant ideas and don't give any credit to inventors. (nonsense - doesn't even need to be addressed) - Think that huge government bureaucracy is better than thousands of job-producing companies. (Liberals are not socialists. Liberals want adequate consumer protections) - Think Americans get rich off greedy corporations who are only interested in making a profit. The truth is that Americans get rich off capitalism fostering the invention of many items and devices seen today. (what we have is capitalism run wild where competition is less and inventions are not as valued because of the decreased competition. Corporations take advantage of tax loopholes) - Embraces the fact that the poorest and laziest people in society contribute the least while taking the most. (This "lazy" idea doesn't take into account the job loss and unemployment. No, conservatives, not everyone can become rich.) - Hates rich corporations, yet fail to acknowledge how many people they employ and how many millions they contribute to society via taxes and charity. (corporations are increasingly after their own interests and not for those that keep them alive)
