Which conservative... uh... fantasy do you wish was actually true?
That Obama really is a radical socialist marxist commie marxist?
That Congress really is full of leftists?
The global warming really is a myth?
That the media really has a liberal bias?
Or something else?

13. nah, that one implies that they will be rewarded for their behaviour
We all know which way they're really going if there is an afterlife, and it certainly isn't up.

4. Tax cuts stimulate the economy.
If true, we could cut taxes to zero. Then we'd all be farting through silk.

7. All of the above?
I'd settle for Obama being a Liberal, actually. And a congress full of actual Democrats, as opposed to cowards and corporate fellating traitors.

12. I like all four of your myths, and I wish they were all true.
Except, I suppose, #1. I would be happy if Obama were merely liberal. I'm glad he's not a Marxist.

15. I just posted it.

I desperately wish they would fulfill Randian prophecy and march off en masse to some secluded place and wait for us all to beg them to come back.

Which would never happen, of course.

16. That Christians really were a rag-tag persecuted powerless minority.
Edited on Sat Nov-21-09 09:15 PM by Withywindle
I would never support discriminating against them in employment, housing, marriage, child custody, religious freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of military service or health care and funeral rights, of course. I would certainly stand up for their right to live in peace free of hate crimes.


I just want them to have about the same chance of making their religious beliefs into The Law of the Land For All of Us as, say, the New-Reformed-Rastafarian/Zoroastrian-Church of the New Pleiadians. Whose human rights I would also fully support if they existed.* Just not their "right" to try to make ME live by what THEY believe.


*It's possible that they do. If so, I mean no disrespect.

21. That all you have to do to become successful is...
...click your heels together 3 times and say, "I'm going to be successful" 3 times no matter your circumstances in life.

22. That the Democratic party was "socialist"
conservatives don't understand what "socialist" is - the way they define it, the military would be a socialist institution. I'd love to see them have to live with some real socialism.
