They are all very well intentioned, but I have two major issues with the liberals who I have met thus far in life:

1) They are overly optimistic. There is a tendency amongst libs to believe a bit too strongly in the general goodness of man, and the ability of things to "work out." Put the government in charge of health care???? Sure!!!! Just because the government seems to botch everything else, this will most certainly be different.

2) They tend to have a lot of trouble defending their point of view. Most liberals I have met either don't know what they are talking about when it comes to politics, or they have severely misguided ideas about politics. If you support Nader, why not vote for him?? Because it guarantees a Bush win!! Wait - ignore the fact that Bush is so beatable that if Nader keeps Kerry from winning then it is Kerry's fault - and ignore the fact that you should vote for you ACTUALLY support - just vote the party line and watch as nothing changes (how progressive is that)?

Anyway - that's enough lib ranting for me in a day. I'm sort fo down about the Reagan thing - especially as libs take this opportunity to knock the guy. Poor form guys, very poor.
