I don't want the thread to degenerate, but it's not a lie that liberals mock people with whom they disagree regularly. Listen to liberals talk about Tea Party (the disgusting epitaph "teabaggers") people, Sarah Palin, religious conservatives (here, this trumps poverty). There's something else going on besides disagreement. Listen to Bill Maher, Olbermann, Stewart, Howard Dean, Frank Rich, etc.

This is kind of what I'm talking about. Many liberals equate conservatism with bigotry or naked self-interest (as opposed to the magnanimous trial lawyers). Is that nice? Is that very respectful? Does that demonstrate a knowledge of conservative thought? I acknowledged (and do so every single time) that differences between the Texas board supporters and the California board supporters are sincere and have to do with different starting points. Do liberals usually say that conservatives also want the best for society?
