Beating Liberalism With A Book

"CONSERVATIVE COMEBACKS TO LIBERAL LIES" is a book which gives conservatives what they evidently so desperately need: a guidebook on how to respond to liberals, and sound reasonably intelligent, while defending, at all costs, the sacred cow of conservatism. This is a must read for conservatives wanting to at least sound intelligent. which includes them all. The book lists, one by one, often articulated liberal attitudes, most of which would seem to be simple, unassailable facts, and for each one provides a typical American consrvative a suggested response. Some of these alleged liberal beliefs are fabricated for purposes of deception. Liberals emphasize that the U.S.A. was stolen from native Americans and Mexicans. Conservatives should respond by reminding us that this is normal human behavior. America's imperialism is now justified! A conservative registered Republican who claimes to be independent, Bill O'Reilly, points out that you can't justify a wrong by pointing to another wrong. Liberals like to point out that America is a pluralistic, diversified society, culturally, ethnically, and religiously. Conservatives, according to the manual, should respond by agreeing that, yes, America is diversified and pluralistic, but still, most Amricans are Christians, by God! Never stop calling America a "Christian" country, no matter what the facts are. Conservatives feel an incredible urge to argue even when they agree with liberals. Liberals are fond of saying that African-Americans, women, and homosexualss have historically been given second class status in America. A good conservative must point out that these minorities are treated better in America than anywhere else. How this disproves that they are treated poorly, or proves that America treats them well enough, is never mentioned. Please notice that the suggested conservative response in all three of these examples does nothing to belie the liberal statement, and in fact, in all three cases, concedes the liberal point, while trying to oppose or mitigate it. Oh well. As long as an average American conservative can thumb through "Conservative Comebacks" and find a response, even a weak one, there is no need to wonder why the book isn't entitled "Proofs that Liberal Lies Are Lies".
