    Is that even true anymore? I recall Trump saying "Make America Great Again", Hillary respoinding "America's Already Great" and conservatives jeering. I see plenty of talking heads on the conservative side go on and on about how horrible America has become. There is PLENTY of it on that side. It isn't exclusive to the left.

    Sure I can define "leftist", that's easy. A leftist is someone who thinks government is there to "help" them. A conservative is someone who recognizes that government, like Man, is inherently evil. The conservative wants less government. The leftist wants more government

    No, those countries I mention aren't governed by we the people. Neither is America, but that is the illusion the leftist needs to maintain. Just like the DPRK, The Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

    And Fxxx yeah I am admonishing my own countrymem. They have forgotten their roots and are going to repeat the atrocities of socialism and totalitarian government because they do not know where they are coming from.

    Liberals do populate our universities... rioting and destroying every time anyone dares say anything that's not radical leftist line. Its awful. I've worked in high tech most of my life from Lockheed to DARPA and from Boeing to NASA. Liberals are few and far between. Most are veterans. Liberals, who think taking from achievers to give free stuff to bums, who think we should spend billions defending Ukraine's borders while leaving our own wide open, and who think letting violent criminals go free is a good idea... aren't very "bright". "Freedom Riders"? i they rive their Moel T's? Or did they ride horses? Yee HAA!!! (If you need a calendar... just ask.)
    Conservatives love MLK. His comments about "judging people by the quality of their character, rather than the color of their skin" is hateful to liberals.

    you are exmilitary AND defense industry, i know you are RW, not surprised you are unaware of the northern liberals who rode the buses down south, if you have heard of the film "missispi burning" it details the murder of some of these white liberals, and thankyou for confirming you know next to nothing of our countrys history, yet will claim MLKs cherry-picked words as something special, typical im sure you dont claim to understand all the hatefull rhetoric hurled at MLK either by your conservative bunch streotypical RW

    Oh really?

    So when the DOI was written, those white males considered slaves and women as equals? Didn't know that. Good grief, those 13th and 19th amendments were a good waste of paper then.

    Anyone who doesn't like our country, who thinks it is sinful, based on evil, yadda yadda should just leave. Other countries accept immigrants too. But no duel citizenship and no return.

    God seems to anger you. I'll remember to mention Him more often.

    God gave man free will. The cop is guilty, God is not.

    Oh brother. Lol

    You all make up these gods, apply rules to them, then when they don't perform as you claim they would, you attach the excuses for them.

    So which is it this time? The devil? God testing the child? Something the child's foreparents did? Didn't pray hard enough? What bullsh** reason do you have for it?

    I think it's the difference between the "me" perception and the "us" perception of the nation.
    The "me" people think the nation should be all about them, and the conservatives aren't giving them what they are entitled to.... so conservatives are the bad guys. They think we all owe them.
    The "us" people see that we are all part of the same system, and each of us has a primary obligation to care for ourselves, and not become a burden on others.

    The first is adversary. For me to win, you have to lose. Selfish, arrogant, self-destructive society- with no future.

    The second is partnership. For me to win, you have to win as well. Teamwork, raising the best quality kids we can, and building for the future of everyone.

    All people make mistakes, but some do them on purpose because they really don't care about anyone other than themselves and right now.

    JFK said it. Ask not what your country can do- Ask what you can do for your country. That's the mindsets of the left and right, defined in one sentence.

    What I love about America;

    Unlimited ways to make tons of money, and not whine about inflation.

    Oh no, I'm pointing out how the god they create doesn't do what they say it can do. I'm just wondering why is that...
