(2,716 posts)Johnston - the tapdancing continues: it {liberal/conservative city study}uses voting patterns as the only definition ... I was using criteria like race relations, which LA fails at, strength of public unions, public education not being sold out to private charter schools, and honest and transparent government. They pretty well fail at that.
.. wow - the study adjudged that the way to segregate liberal & conservative cites is by whether they tend to vote democrat or republican - who'd a thunk this was faulty reasoning? Johnston, you make me laugh.
Furthermore, what difference does it make what 'you' were judging the cities by? because I first cited them here:
I wrote: Johnston is defending a rightwing gunnut, kopel. Bash some liberal cities like you often do, like DC, LA, Chicago, NY, you democrat charlatan.
Johnston replied: BTW, none of these {DC, LA, NYC, Chicago} are "liberal cities". They might have a mayor with a D by his name, but I wouldn't describe them as liberal. They are violent, corrupt, mismanaged, but not liberal.
Since I first properly called them liberal cities, rightfully so accd'g to common wisdom & the study above, I first said you bashed them which you readily admit. That 'you' think they aren't liberal is irrelevant & ridiculous - using your own particular criteria.
Show some study or source which backs you up. Ha.
And btw, readers will note that Johnston indeed bashed these liberal cities above, by saying: They are violent, corrupt, mismanaged, but not liberal
