A liberal caller asked Limbaugh why Ronald Reagan is a hero to conservatives when he raised taxes, cut and ran from Lebanon, granted amnesty to illegal immigrants, and negotiated with terrorists. Limbaugh answered by claiming that the caller didn’t understand Reagan, “Why is a Reagan a hero to conservatives. Given what you said, and I am not trying to avoid the question, I don’t think you’d understand it.” The caller repeated his question again, and told Limbaugh that he didn’t think he understood why conservatives love Reagan. Rush replied it, “No, I do, most assuredly I do. I don’t think you understand it. Where did you get this silly notion that Reagan raised taxes on Social Security? What websites do you read? Where did you pick that up?” The caller told Rush to look up the Greenspan Commission. It’s a matter of history and that it is general knowledge.

1. Oh man, look at this from the comments; it's so fucking great

I study many topics and I have discovered something that is unbelievable: conservatives are wrong about everything. This conclusion is not at all satisfying to me, it seems too simple. Nonetheless, no matter how I try to refute this conclusion, I cannot. Conservatives are wrong about the very nature of reality. Every scientific and historical fact contradicts every view they hold.

3. Yes, they are wrong about simply everything.

That's why I call them the Upside-Down People.
Everything they "know" "think" and "believe" is upside-down to reality.
It really is quite an amazing phenomenon.

I don't have too many conservatives in my life, having been raised in a liberal family, and living in a blue, blue, blue area. The few conservatives that I do know and spend any amount of time with are like case studies to me and I find them fascinating!

One of them lives by the lie. The first line of defense for this person in any situation is to lie. Even when, maybe even especially when, it is not necessary. I really don't think this individual knows that there is a difference between the truth and lies. The few others that I know may not be liars, but they really have no idea what they are talking about most of the time.

It would be funny, if they weren't in the process of fucking up the whole planet for the rest of us...

He ran that one through during the Thanksgiving holiday.
