Here it is: The article every liberal needs to show a conservative

dear gop sick of your s--- smaller

How many times have you been in a conversation with a conservative on Twitter, Facebook, face-to-face, on the phone, or just standing in line somewhere, and you blank on an easy to understand, informative comeback? Need a handy dandy guide that sums it all up beautifully? Why, here’s one now!

Here are a few excerpts from a substantive post that includes gun rights, marriage equality, “Christian values,” fiscal responsibility, “small” government, abortion, the debt ceiling, spending, and tax cuts. Thank you, Forward Progressives:

Marriage is a Sacred Bond Before God: [...]

[I]f you feel your religion should control all others, and all Americans, you then support a theocracy and apparently oppose the United States and our Constitutionally protected freedoms. [...]

I Want Big Intrusive Government–That Never Does Anything Good–Out of My Life!

Did you drive today?  Did you take your children to public school?  Did you enjoy a safe commute as you traveled thanks to traffic signals and signs?  Did you whisk through your city or state on an Interstate Highway?  Did you enjoy running water and plumbing that properly, and safely, disposes of waste?  Did you get a college degree at a public university because it was much cheaper than a private one?

Hey genius, that’s all government.

Republicans: The Party for Christian Values: [...]

If you want to say you’re the party of “Christian values” and you worship Jesus Christ…

Start by helping the sick, the poor, the needy—not opposing programs that do. [...]

Republicans are the Party of Small Government

Big government regulations, they’re un-American!  They’re unconstitutional and ruining your way of life!

Unless that big government regulates:

  • What language to speak

  • Religion to follow

  • When life is created

  • Who can marry

  • Who can serve in the military

  • Invasive health procedures on women

  • That we have prayer in school

  • Mosques aren’t built in certain locations

  • Corporations are people

  • The Patriot Act

  • Unions don’t have rights

  • When alcohol can be sold

  • The requirement of an ID to vote

Those were but a few of the responses that Forward Progressives provided. Please follow the link for more.

The post was written by Allen Clifton who has a degree in Political Science. He is the founder of the popular Facebook page “Right Off A Cliff,” on which he routinely voices his opinions and stirs the pot for the Progressive movement. His work has been featured on many sites online, and on Current TV’s popular “The Young Turks” program.

VIDEO: Rick Perry booed at CPAC after saying the words “growing Hispanic demographic.”

I’ve tried to avoid CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) to protect what’s left of my sanity. I’ve really tried. I mean, I’ve really tried. Paddy has been posting videos here and there, like the ones of Allen West and Louis Gohmert, but I couldn’t bring myself to watch them.

Instead, I took a deep breath and watched this:

Thank you, Talking Points Memo. I owe you my mental health. If only those at CPAC still had theirs.

But just when I thought I was safe, Benjy Sarlin noticed that Rick Perry got a smattering of boos (it’s hard to hear, but they’re there) when he uttered the words “growing Hispanic demographic.” I couldn’t resist clipping that part out for all to see.

Those whacky, zany, outreachy, reinvented Republicans, they sure have changed!

“Now, the popular media narrative is that this country has shifted away from conservative ideals, as evidenced by the last two presidential elections. That’s what they think, that’s what they say. That might be true if Republicans had actually nominated conservative candidates in 2008 and 2012. Might be true. But now we are told our party must shift appeal to the growing Hispanic demographic.”
