“Just honest. To me, being 'politically incorrect' means the opposite of being political -- which means to spin everything. That's all it's ever meant to me. It's never meant liberal or conservative. It means honest.” MeanPoliticalHonestOppositesConservative Author:Bill Maher
“Do not be deceived by the way men of bad faith misuse words and names … Things are set up as contraries that are not even in the same category. Listen to me: the opposite of radical is superficial, the opposite of liberal is stingy; the opposite of conservative is destructive. Thus I will describe myself as a radical conservative liberal; but certain of the tainted red fish will swear that there can be no such fish as that. Beware of those who use words to mean their opposites. At the same time have pity on them, for usually this trick is their only stock in trade.” MenWayMeanUseCertainNamesRedOppositesTradeFishesConservativeContraryTricksPityRadicalDestructiveCategoriesSwearSuperficialDeceivedListen To MeMisuseTaintedStingyDescribe Myself Author:R.

“A politician will always tip off his true belief by stating the opposite at the beginning of the sentence. For maximum comprehension, do not start listening until the first clause is concluded. Begin instead at the word 'BUT' which begins the second, or active, clause. This is the way to tell a liberal from a conservative - before they tell you. Thus: 'I have always believed in a strong national defense, second to none, but...(a liberal, about to propose a $20 billion defense cut).” WayFirstsPoliticsBeliefStrongCuttingListeningPoliticianOppositesConservativeActiveSentencesDefenseBillionsMaximumAlways BelieveProposeComprehensionClausesNational Defense Author:Frank Mankiewicz
“I am like all other atheists only in that I do not believe there are any gods. Beyond that, I may differ dramatically in my values and beliefs from any other atheist. On both sides of the political spectrum, one can find the neo-conservative Objectivists and the ultra-liberal Communists, both of whom hate each other. These two factions take up nearly opposite sets of values, yet both are comprised of unabashed atheists.” BelieveMayTwoPoliticalValuesHateBeliefSidesAtheismOppositesAtheistConservativeCommunistBoth SidesSpectrumFactionsUltrasPolitical Spectrum Author:Richard Carrier

“I think that's why Donald Trump continues to enjoy evangelical support. They're not endorsing necessarily his lifestyle. What they're saying is this is a binary choice between one candidate, Donald Trump - who is pro-life, pro-religious liberty, pro-conservative justices of the Supreme Court - and another candidate, Hillary Clinton, who has an opposite view on all of those issues.” ThinkingChoicesEnjoyReligiousJusticeViewsLibertySupportIssuesTrumpOppositesCourtClintonConservativeLifestyleSupremeCandidatesSupreme CourtEvangelicalPro LifeReligious LibertyBinaryEndorsing Author:Robert Jeffress
