Are Conservatives Happier Than Liberals?

It figures that the majority of those polled said that they were conservative and happy. It also figures that the majority of the people who claimed to be liberal on the poll also used the space on this site to cry like little panzy ass babies about why they hate life.

Stop blaming your problems on George W. Bush and get a hold of your lives.

And this comes from an Obama supporter....

All this is to say George W. Bush is a hypocrite. So deep is his cynicism that he would go on foreign soil to invoke history's greatest crime to condemn conduct he himself has engaged in.

As an American I am ashamed that such a man represents me.

I say this as someone who has not supported Barack Obama in the Democratic primaries; someone who has reservations about Sen. Obama's plan to engage Iran in talks without any preconditions. But there comes a time when intra-party rivalries must yield, and all of us must stand together against the degradation of the Office of the Presidency.

I still suffer extreme hostility towards every group that pissed off one of my ancestors and the list goes back at least 5 thousand years!!

Of course right-wingers are happy, ignorance is bliss lol Just read the preceding story. Asked if it bothered most right-wingers if it matters to them if certain individuals have more opportunities in life then others; their response was no. They are uncaring. Psychopaths usually consider themselves happy people, because they lack emotion. Therfore aren't happy or unhappy. Just unempathetic human cogs. (---Top that

CONSERS SHOULD BE HAPPIER, THEY USUALLY HAVE MORE MONEY AND DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT DISCRIMINATIONS AS APPOSED TO LIBERALS WHOM ARE STILL FIGHTING FOR EQUAL TREATMENT.

This story has yet to catch the fire it should, and hopefully will, once the D's get focused on McCain and his dim vision of government. But the point born of these numbers is as simple as it is compelling:

For seven long years, we've tried entrusting our government to those who discredit it, defund it, and fundamentally disbelieve in its role, except when they seek a lucrative contract or a bailout. We gone down the road-and it is a crumbling road, with potholes and failing bridges -- where the solution to every problem is a tax cut, where critical agencies are staffed with cronies at best and opposition lobbyists at worst, where secrecy trumps transparency and cynicism rules, where budget resources are never available for expanding children's health care, but always there for war.

Table T08-0071 is a road map to taking us far, far deeper into this morass. We must not go there.

Liberals are always waiting for someone to control the injustices of life while conservatives consider those injustices as challenges.

Of course conservatives are happy! Ignorance is bliss.

One simply has to read the hateful comments from liberals on this blog to see proof of the article. I am conservative on financial and defense and liberal on social issues, but these people are filled with bitterness.

Get a job, save your money, stop asking the government to take my money and give it to you. I worked for it I want to keep it :)
