Have you ever wondered why it is that Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called the "left."
By chance I stumbled upon this verse in the Bible:
"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left." Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV)
Thus sayeth the Lord. Amen.
Can't get any simpler than that.
and now for a Spelling Lesson-------
The last four letters in American..........I Can
The last four letters in Republican.......I Can
The last four letters in Democrats.........Rats
End of lesson. Test to follow in November, 2012.
Remember, November is to be set aside as rodents removal month.

Pretty funny.
I always thought it had to do with the political spectrum.
Radical - - - Liberal - - - - Moderate - - - - Conservative - - - Reactionary
Of course there are a couple other categories to include. :) -

In reality, we have the French to thank for the classification. :1_grouphug:

Salty, the French must have originally got it from Ecclesiastes 10:2, no? :tongue3:
