No. I am screaming that so-called conservatives are a pack of hypocrits and probably in a worse class than the liberals you loathe.

Liberals at least make no bones about using the power of the state to advance your agenda, but so-called conservatives claim to favor less government, less intrusions into your lives and yet have no intention of actually doing that.

They talk the talk, but they don't walk the walk as they say. So who is worse, a liberal that tells you what he is going to do to you or a so-called conservative who basically lies to you? Liberals tell you they are a snake, conservsatives pretend they aren't a snake, when they are really a snake.
