Forget about the Republican party of today, other than 'traditional american values', you really have nothing against conservative ideology itself, right?
Even with the 'traditional american values', I think it's important to distinguish between cultural values and moral values. We ought to just leave the moral values out of it... and if we only consider the cultural values, I'm pretty sure most people won't have anything against realizing the american dream thru self reliance and hard work while having healthy competition with equal opportunity, and, last but not least, having the necessary freedoms to pursue our very own happiness.
You also have nothing against 'traditional american values' in a cultural sense, right?
Anyway, I was just wondering if there are really folks who are so hardcore about being a liberal that he just cannot accept any part of conservative ideology... Or do you have any specific issues against conservative ideology? Again, let's try to leave the 'Republicans' out of this discussion for a moment if we can... Also, issues such as abortion and gay marriage are more like moral issues, hence the conservatives would 'flip sides' and actually expect the government to intervene and deny people the 'freedom'... So besides abortion and gay rights and maybe gun rights, do you have anything else against conservative ideology in theory? Am I right to assume that you are also 'bi-political' at least in theory?
Lastly, do you think the American Democrats, especially the ones in charge of our nation, are living up to their liberal values?
