Instead of labels like liberal or conservative, I think we should have just one:

"I don't like people who aren't like me" or "I like people who aren't like me."

I would fall firmly in the first. I certainly don't like people who aren't like me.

Comments/suggestions?
All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

    oddly enough (with the exception of my wife, most of my friends are conservatives. Makes discussions much more interesting.
