so it's apparently not a choice. but I guess it's only a matter of time before it becomes a hate crime to bash liberals
A new study has concluded that ideology is not just a social thing; it's built into the DNA, borne along by a gene called DRD4. Tagged \"the liberal gene,\" DRD4 is the first specific bit of human DNA that predisposes people to certain political views, the study's authors claim.

"The way openness is measured, it's really about receptivity to different lifestyles, for example, or different norms or customs," he told FoxNews.com. "We hypothesize that individuals with a genetic predisposition toward seeking out new experiences [a measure of openness] will tend to be more liberal" -- but only if they had a number of friends when growing up, Fowler cautioned.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”

I wouldn't say that about a real conservative(though they're seem to be none left). I would say that about the whacko fundie tea party/GOP representatives though.
I dont really care what lifestyle anyone has. Its when someone tries to force their way of life on me that gets me upset. If someone wants to live conservatively, go for it. Just dont force me to do so.
