Is it as simple as "negative vs positive"?
A caller to C-SPAN called while Michelle Malkin was being interviewed this morning. She pointed out how "negative" the conservatives are in their expressions.
Another caller, a Southern male, said that conservatives had taken their First Amendment right to free speech as a means to "hate speech".
On reflection, there may be more to their argument than first meets the eye. They do think the worst of people. They are negative. Some of their expressions are hateful. Anything "liberal" is discredited in the most vile terms. They pit their "righteous" conservatism against "evil" liberalism and "evil" big government.
Change conservatives to liberals and you have hit it on the head, dummie. Check out any liberal newspaper op-ed page and see how much love they shower on their "enemies". For that matter, check out Leonard Pitts Jr column on some poor conservative guy, who had a serious medical problem, didn't have insurance and got a gofundme page. The liberal tolerance is on fine display there. For that matter check out the go fund me page and see the liberal tolerance and love for their fellow man.
Hell dummies, if I wanted to I could quote your own posts and comments that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that liberals are the most vile, hateful people that inhabit the earth... ISIS excepted. It ain't negative or hate if what is being spoke of is the truth.
