So not being conservative is being negative....

One of the things that drives me crazy about many of the ultra right conservatives and religious right is the apparent basic modus operandi that they are right and we must all think and behave they way they tell us to. They appear to have lost the ideas so basic and core to our constitution of free thought and free speech. They appear to be able to tolerate the idea that other people can have a valid , but different position on a topic. Their tolerance has dropped to zero.

One of the more amazing twists on this behaviour surfaced in an advertisement for the new spoof movie this week. The ad basically starts of saying that making a conservative movie in Hollywood is essentially illegal and actors who do it are probably considered criminal by their peers, but is you are tired of movies with a NEGATIVE message, you need to come and watch this wonderful new piece of film making. So the conclusion from this is that if you are not thinking along Conservative lines, your thinking is negative, not different, not liberal, but NEGATIVE.

Most bizarre!
