The style of a liberal often includes these characteristics:
- calling conservative free speech "hate" speech [1]
- pretending to know more than he does; Isaac Newton admitted that he knew almost nothing, yet a liberal rarely admits that and often pretends to know more than he does
- resistance to quantifying things, such as liberal bias or openmindedness
- preference for obscenity and profanity [2]
- insistence on having the last word in a discussion or debate
- over-reliance on mockery
- over-reliance on accusations of hypocrisy
- hostility to faith
- insistence on censoring certain speech, such as a description of The Flood or even teaching children about a massive flood, despite its acceptance by a majority of Americans
- believing that the education of children is for liberals to control
- believing that conservatives will fail, and shock when they succeed
- reluctance to admit that anything is morally wrong
- bullying conservatives who disagree with liberal views
- draw an analogy between opponents and racists, no matter how illogical
- claim that science supports their position, and ignore any evidence that shows their science to be false
- often declare that an adversary should be "ashamed of himself," while never saying that about a fellow liberal (such as Ted Kennedy or Bill Clinton)
- willing to give away everything held dear by the majority to avoid serious conflict (such as liberal Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, or those liberals who wish to pull our troops out of Iraq, and embolden the terrorists).
