I mean, there have to be a few good liberals out there who use their brains rather than their emotional glands, right? So I guess there could be a few conservatives who don't use their brains.

Doug;
You are slipping - are you feeling yourself? I tend to think humans are much more complex than giving them labels such as conservative or liberal. I find that people have given me both labels – as my views differ depending upon the issue.
It is much too easy to put people into a box and dismiss them, as we do not wish to take the time to understand the person from whom a comment comes. When it comes to human values being a conservative or liberal is not an appropriate way to give such a classification. Such a topic to me is like a three-dimensional spider web – too complex to fully understand by a cursory glance.
Today, I think many people do not know what a value system is and that to me is a serious problem. It seems the pressures of life demand we not think and it is better to react. I was never a good little sheep!
