3. Well I didn't vote because it's not that simple.
Regardless of the labels that have been flying around for decades, the post-Saint Ronnie Republican party clearly is a bunch of fiscal liberals. Now if you want to get into another area such as human rights, Democrats are much more 'liberal' at affording them.

6. Neither, since I should think any definition of conservative or liberal in our society

would be based upon an undying support for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The Repubs and our "leaders" as well as most Members of Congress not only failed to defend the Constitution and Bill of Rights, but participated in its shredding by supporting the so-called "Patriot" Act, its renewal, plus a slew of other treasonous bills.

Impeachment is off the table because there too many fingerprints on the dagger thrust into the heart of the Republic, sadly many of them from members of our own party.
