I think the Left like to THINK they are somehow overwhelmed by the "traditional" masses. Makes them feel all edgey, like they are fighting the Man. In reality they have as many work-a-day, soccer mom drones as anyone else.

If anyone here thinks Conservatives have it easy, I would suggest making a fake account and writing up a nice anti-kerry article. Wear a helmet...

Indeed. The worst things I see liberals get called here are things like "naive" or "bleeding heart".  Meanwhile, I get called a "fascist" or a "Nazi" and what not by the so-called compassionate tolerant left wingers around here.

way to go kid, now you've done it

This website is driving me so far out of my mind.

Politics are the hot topic this fall obviously and as hard as they are to avoid, I only wish some people could keep their beefs and issues to themselves for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week

I'm all "voted" and "poltics" out and that's only from coming to this site. I think I'm gonna skip out for a while until after January.

Hey!  That's enough dogging on us soccer moms! 

You're right, of course.  They have to feel like they're fighting someone or for something, or they lose momentum.  As long as there is an 'establishment' they will be 'anti'.  It's kind of like Brando's line in 'The Wild Ones' (when asked "what are you rebeling against?"  He replies "Whadda ya got?")

Draginol's right about the name calling too.  It seems that the left's standard response when confronted with an ideology they don't care for is to label it 'fascist' or 'nazi'.  It gets really old, really quick.

 

Hey Brad, you left me out

What I find really disturbing is the fact you are scared to admit your political leanings at school. I am sorry, but thats not an ideal environment for learning, or living for that matter.. being worried what your peers think of you because of your political allegiance.

I don't know if i could do it, and for that, you certainly have my respect.

Democrats, like Republicans are their own worst enemies... there are small portions of morons on each side of the spectrum, and unfortunately, they give ammo to the other sides... you are an island, think happy thoughts

BAM!!!

I manage to keep myself under control when other students and teachers decide to slam Kerry, and I don't slam back; if I did, I'd surely have the entire school right up my ass with little off-hand comments. I'm not about to come out and make it more known that it already is, though, because I'm afraid some of the people I care about most would let it get in the way of our friendships or otherwise. Call me paranoid, but it's a risk I'm not willing to take.

I'm pretty new here and I don't know how to look up facts as well as the others, but i'd think school would be the most safe place to be a Kerry supporter. If I can find the stats(probably can't, maybe someone can help) I think somewhere around 80%-90% of the college professors in this country consider themselfs liberal or democrate.

Washingtontimes.com article name " Political professors rife, hill intern says, author Grant Schultz

Liberal dominance in academia is nothing new. A recent study conducted by the American Enterprise Institute and the Center for the Study of Popular Culture found an overwhelming majority of faculty at U.S. colleges and universities lean left. At Cornell University, for instance, the left exceeded the right by a 166-6 margin. Schools including Harvard, the University of Colorado at Boulder and the University of Texas at Austin had comparable ratios.
The University of California, in a move criticized as opening the door to further liberal dominance, also plans to cut parts of its 69-year-old academic freedom policy that protects classrooms from politically biased teaching.
Laura Ferrell, a senior at Dartmouth College who will speak on the forum's student panel, said she witnessed classroom bias firsthand when a professor in her Spanish literature class veered off topic to show images of civilian causalities in the war against Iraq.
