, 15:41, February 27, 2010→How are these words conservative?
With all due respect Andy, I have to disagree. I'm a moderate liberal, but I'm also an Eagle Scout and am currently in the process of writing a book the portrays the elite in a pretty negative way. Both my parents are bleeding heart liberals, but they worked for everything they have and are pretty much the defenition of the American dream.

Also, as a suggestion, you may want to clarify that some of the words are used BY conservatives to describe liberals. A person reading through the list may get the impression that some of the things listed are conservative traits--[[User:DerikJ|DerikJ]] 10:18, 27 February 2010 (EST)

:But... sorry, I may be a bit slow and English is not my mother tongue, but I don't get it. I understand how word expressing conservative values ("free market", "missile defense") are in the list; also, words used by everyone but coined by influent conservatives are in the list. But how are words like "myopic", "biased", "demagogue" or "incoherent" conservative words? They are generic words. Sure, they are used by conservatives to describe liberals, or liberal policies, but they are also used by liberals to describe conservatives, or conservative policies. I mean, if tomorrow John McCain says that Obama is an awful president, "awful" does not immediately become a conservative word. --[[User:Maquissar|Maquissar]] 10:41, 27 February 2010 (EST)
