Sorta like the anti war stuff. Its easy to just spout off the usual rhetoric how war is bad, civillians killed, bush is a facist, american imperialism yada yada, without having any solution of their own.
Sure conservative politics is simpler and easier to understand. It's more logical and concrete.

Though Mr. Kitchin said he was a conservative, he also said he would have pursued liberal programs had he thought there was money in them. He ascribes to the popular view in the industry that liberal hosts present issues in too much complexity to be very entertaining ? while addressing a diffuse audience that has varying views.
"Individuals who are liberal in their viewpoints can be all-encompassing," he said. "It's very hard to define liberalism, unlike how easy it is to define conservatism. So, as a result, it doesn't evoke the same kind of passion as conservative ideologies do.""
Even Rush's people admit that the problem is "liberals" aren't as brainwashed as you.
