I'm averaging 500 words of new information a day! Apology in order, do you think, or is common courtesy not a "conservative value."?

I don't want to get into the above debate about the nature of this article, but I think there are a few things that could be done to make the article better. First, I'd suggest that "liberals and hippies" could be changed to just "liberals." If you think Liberals and hippies are the same thing, then it's redundant. On the other hand, if they aren't the same, then it doesn't make sense to include hippies since this article talks about strictly conservative values, which would be in direct opposition to liberal values. Also, "square" is itself an outdated slang term that most people don't use anymore (which, ironically, would mean some consider it "old fashioned") so maybe just "stuffy" would be better. Also the second to last sentence could be split into two to improve its readability. I'd change it myself, but it seems like this is a contentious article, and I don't want to step on anyone's toes are anything. These are just suggestions of course, sorry if I overstepped any bounds.
