I don't think that they vote monolithhically, but organized labor and other liberal unions spend 90+% of their PAC money on Democratic candidates. And the largest teacher union, the NEA, probably gives closer to 100% to liberal candidates that will insure a monopolistic eduction system. Unions hate competition, so they throw money at anti-competitive candidates, ergo liberals.

There are some liberals that are as you portray "liberals" but they are by far in the minority. Good examples of them on USPOL are Joao, Goober and Sam just to name a few. There are also some cons here that meet the generalizations used by these liberals and others to represent all cons. Varus you are one good example of their generalization, although on the more moderate side. Hank, hairball and jvie would be more typical examples of that.

I don't share your belief. Two of the three that you mentioned, IMO, are nothing more than liberal hacks that regurgitate liberal DNC dogma, but I don't want to get too personal, so I'll let the reader figure out which two.

The problem is everytime you generalize like this most of us just shake our heads and move on to the next post. It is clear you are not making a valuable or even interesting point, merely slinging more mud. Now I am not opposed to slinging mud mind you, but don't you think you should at least target the mud in the right direction. You guys are like bombers in WWII. You sling mud across as wide a landscape as you can hoping to hit a target. Instead try slinging using smart mud and focus the attack.

I don't take an extra 1/2 hour to qualify exactly which liberals I am speaking about., so yes, there is generalization for the sake of brevity.
For example, if discussing gun control, I could say "anti-gun liberals" or I could say " the majority of of liberals that don't support gun control and want to ban handguns". I give the reader enough credit to know that these aren't absolutes.
