There I said it.

I didn’t vote for John McCain either. I was so disgusted by the bailout proposals that I said to hell with both of them. It didn’t really matter to me who was in The Whitehouse as long as it wasn’t George Bush.

The reason I post that is because every once in awhile I get comments that seem to think I’m some sort of hippie liberal because I’ll take a jab at war propaganda rockers like Kid Rock or homophobe models like Miss California.

A note to what I can only presume to be defensive Christian leaning conservatives–not everyone who disagrees with you is a liberal.

Some of us “moderates” could even be true free market conservatives who are sick of religion being used to gain votes or make policy.  Where’s Barry Goldwater when you need him? (Oh yeah, long since dead).

I lean Libertarian even though I’m hesitant to call myself “Libertarian” because it offends the core group of the Libertarian Party. That said, I’m sick of Christians acting like they own conservatism. Most of them don’t even know what it means. And most of them supported Bush who increased government and didn’t shrink it, then act like kids trying to change the topic to some liberal fat cat who did the same as Bush as if that lets Bush off the hook.

So if you want to imply I’m a liberal, you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about. You’re being lazy minded and not addressing the opinion, just dismissing it because somehow all liberals are wrong.

They aren’t. Liberals can be very much right on many things just as any party can be. No one is ever 100 percent wrong or right…unless you believe life is a holy war and all ideological enemies must be defeated.

To end this response to the Christ-lovin’ conservative user comments, I’d like to say that Carrie Prejean is a blonde ‘tard and that Barack Obama is a homophobe underneath all the carefully worded opinions he gives on the subject. Happy now?
