Here are some common [[liberal]] tricks that many people fall for:

# "live and let live!" except when it comes to praying aloud in school, keeping the money you earn, building on your own property, and every other liberal issue
# it doesn't hurt to try!
# everyone else supposedly believes in something so it must be right
# your [[parent]]s aren't cool
# [[Hollywood]] is cool
# there is a shortage of everything we want
# [[prayer]] is for dummies, or is antiquated
# [[children|kids]] are getting smarter than old folks
# smear your adversary with a highly offensive accusation or insinuation
# atheism equals intelligence
# call someone a racist if he criticizes a ''liberal'' having a different skin color
# [[conservative]]s don't care about regular people
# [[vandalism]] is ok
# if you don't like it (something offensive on [[television]]), don't watch it (but they don't seem to go for ''if you don't like [[whale]]s being killed, don't watch them being killed'').
# don't kill the [[shark]] that attacked someone; the person invaded the shark's territory (ignoring/rejecting that all of creation was made for [[homo sapiens|man]]).
# insist on protecting the [[First Amendment]] by preventing organized prayer in classrooms, while attempting to water down the [[Second Amendment]] by placing waiting periods on gun purchases.
# claiming that vaccinating your children is safe but shaking them isn't.

Here is an example of an actual attempt at [[liberal tricks]] that was posted on this very page:

{{QuoteBox|This article, and many others on a similar line, are a sad demonstration of incipient mental illness. Andrew Schlafly appears to be an educated man - after all, he edited a legal journal which was later edited by [[Barack Obama]] (I assume that Andy's tenure wasn't a result of affirmative action in favour of the narrow minded and the bigoted) - yet his denunciations of 'liberalism' get ever wilder and more paranoid as his definition of that beknighted state become ever more encompassing.

The above example (by a non-American) attempts to smear a [[conservative]] by implying that he has a mental illness, reflecting '''liberal trick''' #8 above. To someone unfamiliar with '''liberal tricks''', this can be upsetting and intimidating. But once one realizes that this is a basic trick from the [[liberal]] playbook, its silliness and ineffectiveness becomes obvious. The [[liberal]]'s foolish tactic is then revealed for what it really is.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 10:02, 24 February 2008 (EST)
