Conservatives view of liberals (and vice-versa?)

[MikeN]

“Give up your economic freedom, give up your political freedom, and you will be rewarded with license,” said Heritage’s David Azerrad, describing the reigning philosophy of the left. “It’s all sex all the time. It’s not just the sex itself—it’s the permission to indulge.”

Hmmm… not sure if that’s how I’d want to be characterising the opposition.

Given liberals’ fixation with pleasure, “I fear the next great frontier for the left will be trying to lower the age of consent,” said Azerrad, head of Heritage’s center for principles and politics.

And here I thought all those feminazis were trying to raise the age of consent, to stop boys from being boys.
(Though of course liberals tend to want their partners to be conscious)

Technology-driven popular culture helped liberals lull the masses into complacency, Azerrad continued, citing iPhones, Google Glass, massive multi-player online video games, and “year-round sports” as among the distractions that have left society vulnerable to political and economic servitude.

Well, he’s got the economic servitude part right. Interesting to see the conservative’s main think tank denouncing America’s leading corporations, plus baseball and football.

So being a liberal means you get laid all the time, you get to have a smartphone, play video games, and watch ESPN/Fox Sports. Republican youth outreach?

“What will then be left of what Madison called ‘the vigilant and manly spirit which actuates the people of America, the spirit which nourishes freedom and in return is nourished by it’?” wondered Azerrad.

“A native of Montreal in Canada, Azerrad received his master of arts degree in political science from Carleton University in Ottawa. He also holds a bachelor’s degree in journalism and political science from Concordia University in Montreal. He currently resides in Washington, D.C.”

Feel free to toss in any bizarre liberal views about conservatives.

Go to the self-indulgent photo of “concerned” “activists” “making a difference” on the global warming SORRY!!! CLIMATE CHANGE!!! threads. To me a liberal is someone who just wants to prance and posture and then…gets like totally bummed when like shit happens! Cuz it’s like the corporations man… and like money politics…
