(826 posts)Frank Lutz, Grover Norquist, John Boner, et al would love nothing better than for liberals to start demonizing conservatives as they have tried to get conservatives to demonize us. When we are at each others throats they are free to do their nasty without anyone watching.
What you are calling conservatives are in fact far right radicals and most who call themselves conservative or Republican don't know that -YET.
We should be re-writing the lines of their script for more humane purposes. We need to teach, if only by example, the difference between their 1% and themselves. In truth I find that my family and friends who say they are conservative really are appalled by the joblessness, homelessness, hunger, and hopelessness so many are suffering but they have been told we will attack them when really we are attacking the planners of the situations in America today. They are defensive because the right wing media machine has told them to be.
Get out there and be nice, liberal, and tolerant to a fault. If nothing else it will drive the hard core mad that they haven't broken our spirit.
