Predicting the future - hogwash or astute observation?
2007-12-01 18:10:00 As I read through my daily round of blogs I am struck yet again by the stark differences in liberal vs. conservative views of the world. Not just differences of opinion about what SHOULD be, but differences of opinion about what IS, each side being convinced that the other is delusional. I learned long ago (so long ago that I no longer remember where I learned it) that where there is disagreement about what is, the best test is the ability of each side to accurately predict the results of any action. Applying that test was what made me switch, years ago, from registered Democrat to registered Republican - my personal review of the policies of each party showed that, overall, Democrat policies all too often produced long-term undesirable consequences. As a for-instance, the liberal love of welfare of all kinds, instead of producing successful individuals by giving a hand-up to the needy, has produced entire generations of welfare dependants, many unwilling to work for what the...

Knowin’ Libs are distressed–priceless
2007-12-01 03:03:00 That kickin’ one-liner from commenter Ex-tex over at Hot Air on this story: PRINCETON, NJ — Republicans are significantly more likely than Democrats or independents to rate their mental health as excellent, according to data from the last four November Gallup Health and Healthcare polls. Fifty-eight percent of Republicans report having excellent mental health, compared to 43% of independents and 38% of Democrats. This relationship between party identification and reports of excellent mental health persists even within categories of income, age, gender, church attendance, and education. The basic data — based on an aggregated sample of more than 4,000 interviews conducted since 2004 — are straightforward. The differences are quite significant, as can be seen. While Democrats are slightly less likely to report excellent mental health than are independents, the big distinctions in these data are the differences between Republicans and everyone else.
