Pretty soon all of these media outlets are going to need a bailout.....So, pucker up and kiss ass now, hurry up and get that bailout before November, cause you're not getting it in 2011 !

Five of the first eight choices on Google say that Conservatives overall give more than Liberals to charity. If thats the argument. The article you posed, only talks about "younger" persons. If your younger, youll probably give more to charities, with what little money you have, since younger people dont have much. I was more liberal when I was younger. Winstin Churchill phrased it right, Show me a young Conservative and I'll show you someone with no heart. Show me an old Liberal and I'll show you someone with no brains. - Winston Churchill


They idea that conservative internet forums control speech, thats only true to a point. Debate or discussion is not leveled. Hate speech and profanity is. Ive been to liberal web sites many times, and had discussions. The venom and hate ive seen there doesnt even compare to what ive seen on most conservative sites. Liberals are big on regulation right? Not when it comes to divisiveness, hate, and nastiness. Not sayin' the right doesnt have that at times, but in comparison, from what I have personally seen, not even close. I cant even go over to Huff Po anymore. Its too reprehensible, form the headlines, to the forums. A few brave souls fight the fight, but I couldnt do it anymore, and I think Ive got pretty good skin.

Liberals, the research finds, are oriented toward community activism, employing technology to encourage debate and feature user-generated content. Conservatives, on the other hand, are more comfortable with a commanding leadership and use restrictive policies to combat disorderly speech in online forums.

That's all I needed to read.
