Life as a Pinko Commie Liberal (An insider's perspective)
I consider many of you among my acquaintances if not my friends. I think that some of you understand me better than others; but still, I think the vast majority do not understand what life is like for a Pinko Commie Liberal like JB, Davest, Stockpicker, Backbacon, and myself. I can only speak for myself but I would like to provide an insider's perspective for those of you who care to consider it.
Some people think that PCL's are bleeding heart liberals who feel that every parasite and scumbag in this world deserve food stamps, free cell phones, and a monthly paycheck for doing nothing. I can assure you that nothing is farther from the truth. We despise people who abuse the welfare system just as much as every die hard republican out there. The difference, is that we understand that the inevitable abuse is a part of any welfare system; so much so, that we would rather the system be abused then watch people die in the streets, have crime rates increased from desperation, and see violent crime rise.
Some people think that PCL's want to take everybody's gun away. This could not be farther from the truth. We treasure the Bill of Rights as much as any left wing republican. The difference is that we do not understand guns and we see violence on a daily basis. Through this site I have learned through and become much more pro-gun then when I started. Anybody who doubts that can check my first post sometime in December and compare it to my views now. We abhor violence and love children. We react instinctively just as the left side does. We need to be educated. Not accused as gun grabbers. Most of us support Feinstein as much as you do.
Some people think that PCL's back Obama 100%. Nothing could be farther from the truth. We voted for him out of hope for change. For some of us it was a clothespin vote because we disliked the other candidate more. I hold Obama to the same standards as you do. He promised bipartisanship and compromise. If he does not deliver many of us will be switching to voting republican next election. You can track these trends historically.
Some people think that PCL's support higher taxes. I loathe taxes and I loathe the IRS. Being a physician places me in a higher tax bracket. As such, many physicians vote republican. I can't talk politics with my colleagues as they gang up on me quickly. I support taxing stratification based on income because of the lifestyle differences. Taking 30% of a 200,000 dollar income has no where near the effect on quality of life as taking 30% of a 30,000 dollar income.
Some people think PCL's support more favorable immigration reform. Heck, those of us who don't live in Florida or Border states really have no idea what this is all about.
Lastly, some people think that PCL's support Obamacare. This could not be farther from the truth. The health system is broken. In fact, it is fatally broken and in a state of DNR. It will collapse in the next ten years. When it does, only the rich will be able to afford health care. When this happens I will be one of the bleeding heart liberals treating people in the streets for free...as I have done for the last 8 years...as I do currently...and as I continue to do so.
Being a Pinko Commie Liberal and Bleeding Heart Liberal is not all it is cracked up to be. Many of us are open minded to the views of others. Many of us are young and want to learn from those who are older. Many of us seek change for a broken system. Truly, as time moves in on, change occurs, and society must evolve with it. Failing to change is the true fault of Communism.
In conclusion, any PCL can be as good or evil as any left wing extremist. Many political issues cross bipartisan boundary lines and are not easily identified or solved. My PMs have always been open to anybody on this site for medical help. Whether you be a PCL, teaparty, or somebody who is currently on my banned list. I should never be used as the standard for anything. Without Worldtalker I would still be letting other people control my emotions...without TH I would still be misinformed on guns and patriotism...without many of you I would be lacking a good many things.
Food for thought.

Ps. My PM is always open to anybody who needs me. No matter what party line you fall on.
