Since as a rule the liberal elite like to sneer at anyone who openly says they are a Christian, they will have no problem 'blaming' them for the Bush victory.

I often get the impression that conservatives don't like to think too much about issues, they just want an easy, simple answer. They cannot seem to grasp that the world is indeed a complicated place where actions have consequences. I am sure that is not necessarily true, but that is often how it seems. It really is the only reason I can come up with as to why so many people voted to continue the Bush Administration

Please in no way take this as an attempt to single anyone out. I believe this is the sad state of political discourse nationwide at the moment. My personal feelings are that it stems from the "news" shows and even more from the pseudo-news shows where debate and discussion have been replaced by rhetoric and even worse, the snazzy one-liner to get the crowd to cheer.
I feel conservative on some issues and liberal on others. Used to be I would have been respected for taking issues as seperate matters as I approach them. Now I get the distinct impression I'm a fucking idiot in the eyes of at least half of the people who hear me.
