I'm, guessing by classic liberalism you don't mean classical liberalism which is entirely different than what are referred to as political liberals today. In many respects, you are a classical liberal. And, by the way, in many respects, Nebe is not.

Yes, I meant it was a classic example of how they behave today. This could not have been a better example to prove my point. Which is, when faced with the reality that the other guy is stating facts and telling the truth, rather than admit that he might therefore have a valid point, most liberals will yell "hate crime!" and then run away with their fingers in their ears. They do it all the time, on every issue.

If you are pro-life, liberals say you are attacking women's health.
If you disagree with Obama, you are a racist.
If you want to do what's necessary to stop ISIS, you are an Islamophobe
If you want our duly constituted immigration laws enforced, you are an anti-latino bigot
If you like the free market, you love Wall Street and hate the little guy
If you are opposed to gay marriage, you are necessarily a homophobe
If you concede that Social Security needs to be fixed, you don't like old people
If youthink we should pay our teachers only what we can afford, you don't care if kids are illiterate.
If you think Medicare is in financial trouble, then as Florida senate candidate Alan Greyson says, you want sick people to die.

As Obama said, "Republicans gotta stop just hatin' all the time". Yup, that's all John McCain does all day, every day...he spews hate. John McCain, who adopted a girl from a 3rd world country and changed her life indescribably. Unless Obama is full of sh*t, that was an act of hate, right?

I cannot stand this tactic Detbuch. Our economy, our culture, our moral compass, our physical safety, our ability to make the world a better place...all are in jeopardy. And these people refuse to engage in honest debate.
