11. A lot of things are not as portrayed in the media, IMO
The conservative mindset they spin all the time for instance, is myth. Without the media slamming it down people's throats 24/7 this Country would be much more liberal. They run a full court press against liberality for their own selfish purposes, primarily to enrich themselves.

10. Lets face it the whole world is moving to wards that way
Middle East is just going to fight it longer I guess. I wish people could look at the number of years I have been around and see the countries that now let their people vote and have some say in their gov. this would be a shock to any one from my years. Yes it is a liberal movement that is world wide. I will eat my hat if it is not. Their must be a chart some place on this thing that would show the world I was born in 1934 vs. today. The liberal thinking may not be just like us but it is really hard to believe how much the gov. of the world had moved to wards it.

12. Other than that one idiot...
talking about a liberal teacher he had many years ago, who turned out to be a pedophile, the discussion was unusually civilized because most were speaking from current classroom experience.
