— wealthy elites who don’t buy their own BS; looters who want handouts taken from the labour of someone else; and useful idiots — the vast majority. None of these groups hold their beliefs — generally — because of deep intellectual inquiry.

Currently we have an absolute beginner at the top who has anything but the best intentions for America — unless you think the best thing for America is to be no more prosperous, influential, or powerful, than any random third-world country. In that case, you’ve found your guy.[/quote]
You have an interesting definition of liberal and conservative. It sounds like your towing the Fox/Murdoch/Koch line: REAL conservatives have lost power in the Republican party, and anyone who claims to be liberal is brainwashing the masses, or part of the brainwashed masses.
