I always thought liberals were afraid to promote/defend their desires through a position of strength, but after ten months living under the current Administration and a Democrat-controlled Congress I stand corrected.
LIBERAL = THUG
Best demonstrated by the current Administration's use of the "Chicago Way" method to intimidate, browbeat, and demonize their opponents into compliance. New York/New Jersey Mafia-style extortion and scare tactics also come to mind. This seems to be the management style of choice for the fine liberal bastions of all of our large population centers in this country. Honor (among thieves) and "creative" business methods are probably the only redeeming values if that claim can be made. Conservatives hate the thug persona because they despise the immoral, hypocritical, disrespectful, narcissistic, lawless, lowlife who is nothing but a cancer to humanity.
CONSERVATIVE = COWBOY
The classic conservative example is the stern faced, silent, strong, loner, take no BS type personified by the characters made famous by John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, and many others. Men who only used force when it was absolutely necessary, who were honest, had integrity, and who could be counted on to do the right thing when asked. Liberals hate the cowboy persona because they despise the person who doesn't always require someone else's help or permission to resolve his/her problems.
I don't know about you, but I notice a "slight" difference between the two. One exudes honesty and the other exudes dishonesty. I'd rather have a Dirty Harry than a Tony Soprano any day of the week...
